Got in the pool to go swimming. Wasn't able to do it over my lunch. Had my appointment with the Registered Dietician. After I got done with work, and after puppy class tonight, headed over to the pool. Went swimming for 25 minutes. Similar format, treading water for 5 minutes then doing 5 laps of the breaststroke up and back. Mixing in backfloat and doing a lap of an actual backstroke. Then adjusting to more movement in the water where my heart rate is getting up. The whole point of being in the pool is to get the muscles moving, get blood flowing, and use it as an active recovery. I have fun with it. Came home and can tell my body is feeling sore in a good way from Wednesday's workout. The single leg glute bridges really pinpoint the glutes. I am a little stiff and tight in the midsection. Really want to work on loosening that up. I do have a foam roller and also a foam roller, think it's HyperIce is the company, has different levels for vibration. I use that periodically. Right now I haven't been able to get in to get any type of deep tissue massage. Working at the surface layer to try and help stimulate recovery there. Overall tomorrow should be a good workout. I'm getting to bed pretty early tonight. Feeling like I'm in a pretty solid routine. My appointment with the Registered Dietician went really well. I can maybe discuss that more. I almost find the things I'm doing outside of training in the gym more interesting than what I'm doing in the gym. That's where I look back at what I've done so far in the first couple of weeks of podcasting. This is just a bare bones daily training log. It's even hard for me to go back and listen to it because it's like, well whatever, not that interesting. I think when it comes to food, when it comes to recovery, when it comes to lifestyle, what you do outside the gym, those things all really matter. And they're all really fun. Might pivot a little bit in the sense of not putting such a heavy emphasis on here's all that I'm doing in the gym. I still want to provide that information. Look at this holistically and realize when you're training for a goal take in the other aspects of your life and make sure that those are in alignment. I'm really finding a lot of pull by working with people in different domains. The Registered Dietician being one of them. Really want to continue exploring.
