Took the day off of weights & yoga Monday, but got in about 45 minutes of hill sprints & 45 minutes of swimming freestyle laps in the lake. The cardio felt great, but my hips were pretty sore on Tuesday. So I took it easy on them & did an upper body lift yesterday as you can tell by the forearm pump below.
For my upper body day I started with some hip opening stretches & quad stretches to get the juices flowing into the hips. Just enough sun salutations to feel a little warmed up. Then onto rotator cuff warm ups between warm up sets of 👇
