30 Oct Chris Bartl Training Log 10/29/14

Let’s face it, deload weeks are boring as hell and considering all I’m doing are two movements during a training session, mine are even MORE boring.  Still, I enjoy them because I am done fast and I know that if I don’t take them I will end up being a washed up flash in the pan.  That is assuming my pan could actually flash but I digress….

Today I put an end to my calf rehab.  Things have been going along nicely and I no longer have any pain in my left calf.  I will do some light mobility to keep the scar tissue from building up too much but not a ton, same with soft tissue work.

With that in mind, I tried running today.  Seriously, I couldn’t help but laugh at myself.  It was quite funny because I felt like a fat kid trying to ride a bike for the first time.  My stride felt wrong, my foot strike was off and I just felt awkward.  Good thing I have a ton of them in front of me so I can continue to work on it.

Nothing special happened.  Seriously, nothing did.
