I did deadlifts Friday. I ran alot Saturday. I ran alot Sunday. Yesterday I did legs. Something is pulled in the back of my knee. Why? I don’t stretch. There…I said it. I’m the worst at stretching. I feel it’s a waste of time until something happens.

I had a terrific shoulder workout with some kick butt intervals this afternoon and a great cardio this morning. I did it with my hurt knee/hamstring area. Did I stretch? Um…a little bit. It’s nothing a little Tiger Balm won’t cure. I may not do EMC in the morning but I probably will. My internal clock is rearing to go at 4:45a these days and I’m excited about cardio!!!!

That’s me in the morning
FACT:
Alligator meat is VERY lean. Leaner than bison and elk. You learn something in the mornings watching the news on the treadmill

Stretching…yeah…that’s something we had to do in gym class. I hate to do it now. I tried to stretch this morning before me workout but it will take awhile to become a habit. The hard part was to come clean about my “problem” lol

holy i hope that picture is fake.
I actually love stretching. Maybe it goes back to my gymnastics days but I think it feels so good.

In Singapore, they have this alligator farm. And they actually sell alligator meat in local grocery stores. I regret not trying it!

Seems like alligator meat would be very very chewy.
Stretching: definitely yes. I grew up stretching every day because of gymnastics and still do it to help with my running. It’s also supposed to be really beneficial in keeping your cerebral spinal fluid flowing and your spine “young.” We shall see.

I would totally try alligator meat. After 8 years as a vegetarian, I am making up for lost time. No animal is safe around me
Have you tried foam rolling? It massages out your muscles and is a little more active than stretching, so you don’t get bored and uninterested
