went to the gym w/ my man yesterday. that means, my leg weight routine was kicked to the curb and i had to be trained by the hulk. instead of machines, i did bar bell squats, some new calf raises, cable adductors/abductors, dumbbell hamstring curls, side bends with dumbbells, and some other things for core and back. after dinner, i ran 4 miles but at an easy pace. i threw in 5 sprints for .2 or .3 miles and my legs felt like marshmallows afterward!
my calves were quite sore today. i went for a run after dinner tonight - planning for 4 or 5 and ended up going 7 miles. but had to take a few walk breaks since the soreness was kicking in from the weights last night. day two is always worse for me. last week i thought i was sore... that was nothing... so the saying goes - no pain, no gain.
