Note: To build up knowledge to included exercises on a Monday and improve running - start with Pose, Fall, Pose, Fall
Also look at posetv and look at warm ups, strength exercises and techniques.
I have read on here over the last few weeks plenty of advice saying 'listen to your body' or the reason I did so well is because 'I listened to what my body was saying'. Well, today I am doing just that! My lower back is a little sore, nothing too bad but I think it is better that I don't go for my planned run tonight but have a good nights...
Visit to gym went well tonight and highlighted some areas that I need to focus on. I did the following:
*Leg Extensions (1) 1x10 @ 20kg both legs followed by 1x5 right and 1x5 left (2) 1x10 @ 15kg left and 1x10 15kg right (3) as 2 - Maximum was 40kg
