1.89 Mile Dog Walk
20 minutes stretching
Aside from not doing much of any physical activity for the last couple weeks, stretching (or lack thereof) has definitely been a big issue for me. I went for a 3 mile run yesterday followed by a 1 mile walk, and when I got home I wanted to do some light calisthenics/plyometrics. I started with some jump squats super set with body weight side lunges. In the middle of my 2nd set of squats I started getting really painful muscle cramps in my legs. Enough that I had to stop and could barely extend my legs. When I tried to walk up the two steps in the garage into the house it felt like they locked. I had to pause in the middle of the step because it was a jolt of electricity shooting up and down the back of my thigh. I've never felt that before.
Today I did a light walk and some basic exercises, and then the 20 minutes of stretching. I'm starting to train my body to get used to waking up at 5am and then going to bed by 9-930pm. I'm more productive in the morning so I'm thinking by waking up about 15-30 minutes earlier I can get more of the basic chores done, walk Haley with Cedric for an easy 15 minutes of fasted cardio, and then hopefully 20 minutes of stretching. I'll also have the 20-30 minutes of stretching in the evening as well.
My diet has been on point for three days and I'm really focused on my goals and what I'm trying to accomplish. I want to do a vintage pinup inspired photo shoot for Cedric as a wedding gift in July/August, and then the wedding is mid-September. For the photo shoot I'd like to be down to 15-16% body fat. Lower if possible, but I know that goal is reasonable and attainable without completely disregarding all things enjoyable about food and going out with friends/family.
