Strength warm up/down 55:00 [1]

Very light session, mostly upper body and some ROM around hip (clams etc) while avoiding stretching and pain. Things are settling down. Interestingly the soreness I have had previously around the ischial tuberosity seems to have vanished.

Tuesday Jun 20, 2017 #

Note
(injured)

Saw my Sports doc today. NO ruptured tendons, Xray confirmed old adductor injury (circumscribed calcification)- no bone fragments. yay!
Usual 6weeks of rehab, with 1 week of anti-inflamms, eccentric exercises in 2 weeks (no stretching till then), and no sports i.e. deep tissue massage.
Could have been worse. Likely precipitated by the mild degree of hamstring insertion tendonitis I've been carrying for a few months now.

Daughters big day. Lovely venue (Bradley estate; woodland, parkland and animals) just south of the Blue Hills in Boston MA. Minimal formalities but enough to make the day memorable with Ketubah signing and vows under the Chuppah then partying. Father of the bride's speech apparently went down well!

Nice day, and moving more fluidly, although my lower hams (correction distal sartorii) are very DOMSY.

Quick spin to get the legs going again; nice and warm and sunny

Monday Jun 5, 2017 #

Note
(rest day)

Feeling and moving like an old man today - stiff. Perhaps not surprising as I did over a dozen runs from deep, as in 40-50m sprints, and had to contend with a high schooler who was marking me on the left wing (still managed to get round him a few times). Had some memorable moments of good passes and connections including sending the keeper the wrong way.
Now playing the price for youthful exuberance!
