Improvised rest

Hit the pool for some casual stuff and did a ton of soft tissue work. Contrast showers.

  • Notes: Decided not to lift today because I can tell my body needs some rest. Happened about when I anticipated since it has been a while since I took a deload or off week...I was hoping to get through this week but found out today that it was time. Going to take tomorrow completely off and then finish out the week with reduced load/intensity.
  • Sleep: Pretty tired today. Woke up several times during the night last night, which never happens. Further strengthens my feelings that I need to catch up on some rest.
  • Nutrition: Been adding in ice cream to up my calories, but clean other than that.
  • Body: Legs are pretty torn up from yesterday. Hip flexors, quads, glutes, all my abductors. Spent a ton of time today opening up my flexors and they are still very tight. This rest will do me some good, then I can come back into my LP and be good to go next week.
