Muscles are nonsensical they have nothing to do with this bullshit.

lovely weather continues. i sped up to beat a light about a mile in and right calf cramped very mildly. stopped immediately and stretched it on the curb for about 30s. considered turning around and walking home but decided to test it out and glad i did. felt totally fine the rest of the way. still, just a reminder to be careful. a little quicker today, but HR averaged 122 and peaked at 132 so not from greater effort on my part.

meant to lift last night but wife requested a somewhat involved dish for dinner - nothing fancy, just multi-step - and she's eight months pregnant, exhausted, and stressed out by work. easy call, plus dinner was very tasty if i do say so myself. may lift at the office tomorrow, let's see.

- SubT 5 x 6 min
-- warm up
-- intervals @ 4:10, 4:10, 4:11, 4:09, 4:12 w/ 60-90s walking rest
-- cool down
rested until HR got down below 130, time varied between reps. fourth interval was slightly too quick, oops. right calf felt a little tight yesterday but it was fine this morning. added a bit of stretching to my normal pre-run warm up, which felt good. EDIT: back in the gray, let's gooo.

evening

- squat 70 x 5,5

- DL calf raise 70 x 10,10

- RDL 50 x 10, 70 x 10

- BB row 50 x 5,5

- push up x 10

i think this is a good approach, taking things really slowly and easily. haven't had any soreness so far and there's plenty of time to build.

legs a little sluggish to start out but overall felt fine.
