Thursday
1300 PT
Warmup + handstands, 2xBB complex, 2xburgener warmup
(1) For time:
25 muscle snatches, 45# bar
50 pullups
100 pushups, release hands at bottom
10k bike
Time - 25:25
(2) MWOD - psoas and glute massage, hip stretch
- Notes: Doing pushups like this sucks, I was burning out and only getting sets of 10 about halfway. Yesterday I tried a mile jog and some light deadlifts, didn't go well. See below.
- Nutrition: Pretty good. Got a bunch of canned salmon and some trout and lots of veggies.
- Body: Well, my little mile jog test failed yesterday as towards the end I was starting to get the exact same pain I was having before. Without a doubt if I hadn't stopped it would have continued to get worse. I have felt it a little more today since trying the jog, but overall it still feels normal walking around and doesn't bug me biking at all. *Note to self* the psoas massage revealed that I have some surprisingly tender bits deep in my abdominals. Considering I haven't done ab work in god knows how long, considering this to be a psoas issue might not be far fetched.
- General: I am now at the point where I have no idea how to deal with this injury on my own. I have done the rehab and put in the rest appropriate to dealing with muscle strains, but the more I think about it the less sure I am that it actually is a strain. It is specific to very particular exercises, and only kicks in after the .5 mile mark like clockwork when I try to run, yet it feels great in the morning and throughout the day--even when biking hard. I have done more research and because there is so much going on muscularly in that region I think it merits seeking someone's professional opinion, as it appears to be beyond my knowledge.
