1-8-10: So, knowing I had half a day on Friday, I decided to do the workout after work, since I was still a bit sore from the day before. When I got home, I realized there was a bit of luck on my side. Recovery day!!! Now, of course I wasn't naive enough to think that this was going to be a day off. No idea what to suspect. Only, with Shaun T running things, I assumed the worst, namely 2 hours of globe jumps, sprinting, and...oh...there are so many painful drills to choose from...skiing. Instead, what I encountered was a short little workout revolving completely around stretching.
Now is as good a time as ever to say that starting out completely inflexible makes for the short three minute stretches found in the daily workouts to be extremely painful. Now doing these stretches for 8 times as long (with a few other "I am Shaun T and I hate you" drills) made me wonder whether Shaun T was an extreme sadist or I was an extreme masochist. On the one hand I did not really need too many breaks (on occasion a stretch was held a bit longer than I could hold it). On the other hand, it was painful painful painful.
Magcially, these stretches did seem to help my muscles out and by the end of the day (even with a special home designed workout thrown in called "Snow Shoveling") my muscles felt pretty good. Completely prepared for the next day.
