Mobilizations & What Not
Doing a two-week squat mobilization challenge with the Ready State, and I'm actually keeping up with it this time. It helps that a bunch of the early stuff has been things I already do on a daily basis now (27 squats, hip warm up, couch stretch). My squat technique isn't bad, but we can always improve, no?
Jumping rope is going okay. Almost done with the beginner course (for the second time; thank you injures last year), have scoped out more reasonable workouts after that's done in the next few days. Haven't run because I wanted to get up to speed on jumping first, but definitely still want to run as part of my normal fitness routine. It's just so much of how I see myself and think about my fitness, that not to be able to run for a good distance just seems wrong.
Finally started the books I got from the library, after picking up a little book light from Amazon. I do a lot of my reading in bed at night, and I go to bed after the husband is, so I'm used to reading on my Kindle with the screen on dark mode so as not to wake him (and the bedside lamp wouldn't work). So far so good on the light, using it on the amber mode on the dimmest setting (which is still brighter than the kindle).
Got rid of one work headache, now onto another. Whee. Still haven't caught up on email from being out the week before last because last week had an insane amount of new shit tossed my way. I know we're not doing it any time soon, but we cannot hire another attorney in my area fast enough.
