Woke up feeling rather stiff and sore all over. Keep rubbing like the night before and also did some for the back of neck with the "gua-sa" thingie
 
By evening, the soreness and tightness that usually accompanied the medial area of elbow is gone
Soreness at the back of elbow is gone as well.. Arms able to position at 180 degrees with bicep flex without discomfort

2022 October Training Reflections

1 Been roughly two month since turning weekly "trainer/ coach" - conducting an hour plus of class each Thursday in office. Having literally no idea what to do initially.  My own daily exercising has never been any strict regimented programs; outlined with exact sets, reps etc. It has all been one big long experiment from the start. While my "Daily  Trinity" of Pulllups, Diamond Pushups and Dips forms the base of each day's load/ intensity with other exercises--truth is, even for these fundamentals, its been a never-ending series of changes and adaptations as new discoveries and observations/ realizations are made -- almost daily at times. Personally, being disciplined with core training has never been much of a regular affair either. Since definitions in these muscles comes naturally without much actual focused training. Most of my cores are indirectly trained because of the constant contractions applied while doing other exercises to maintain stability during ...

2023 May Training Reflections

Almost mid May, usually penning monthly reflection thoughts comes at the tail-end of the month. But with a fair bit this time, so before I forget... Like Apr-- continued with lower reps with more sets on pulls to hit usual daily numbers to reduce physical stress and focus more on joints recovery (elbows and left shoulder).  Started switching to weighted pullups 3 days ago and daily shoulder warmup is an essential daily affair by now. Micro-dosing it throughout the day when getting up from the chair to stretch. The left shoulder inflammation is much reduced, mobility/ flexibility has improved. Still not optimal of course. However the frequent "shoulder dislocation" and dead-hang exercises have certainly proven effective and useful.   "Shoulder Dislocation" Move Finally, on 13 May, managed to pull off a somewhat "passable" shoulder dislocation with that same initial broomstick from 2 months ago.  Recalling the agony and angst of not able to move the darn sti...

2023 Oct Training Reflections

Oct 2023 fitness and training was all over the place. A week in Cologne for the Anuga Food Show with lots of drinking. Yes drinking. Something since Q1 of 2022 that I had largely eliminated. Never been much of a drinker all my life but during the pandemic lock-down period-- found myself grabbing a bottle of whisky off the shelf to replenish just before the last one dries up in the house. Soon it kinda became a habit.  Those 2 years also saw my highest running mileage ever and my cardio fitness was back right up there  to my ultramarathon days... so I thought a few drinks was ok. But when life returned to normal going back to office, that's when I it dawned on me that something was not right and I need to kick the bottle away. So why this "binge" week during Anuga this time? Call it an experiment. First I can certainly still drink pretty copious amount but the fact is I really do not like it at all... Alcohol. Especially beer, it just smells rotten somehow. Call it overnig...
