Very sore today, but went to the gym hoping it would work out the kinks. It didn't work out that way. I am more sore than ever (almost) with very tight left hip, left knee, sore shoulders afterwards. My back is not only tight, but today was "pinchy" and a couple sharp pains, so am trying to watch that.
WOD:
2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2 Push Jerks
I did:
95 - 105 - 110 - 115 - 120 - 125 (fail to get full extension) - 125 fail - 120 fail - 115 - 115
Wondering where to go from here. Work out tomorrow? Don't work out? Also, I am on-call tomorrow evening so it is not the most convenient day to work out any way. But I wonder about taking more time off to get this hip and knee feeling better. Also should add stretching a couple times per day and maybe icing and heat, alternating for a day or two. It's surprising how much these lifting tighten up my hamstrings and hips, and since not running very much I'm stretching less than before.
Make sure you continue to stretch! Also, a foam roller would be a good investment!
