hmm, I vaguely remember this feeling.

Well, I'm eagerly anticipating the arrival of April. Temple always sends out these catalogs to everyone in center city and I flipped through one for once. They offer a yoga course here in center city (sorry, no way that anything would tempt me to travel to and around temple given all the stories I've heard about that area of the city). Bonus, it's taught by Jolie Bookspan (I linked her here a week or so ago). According to her website, she teaches yoga that doesn't include the poses that tend to hurt my upper back, or at least that's how I interpret it. So I'm hopefull that I'll be able to do yoga again.

Of course, I asked B if he was interested and was informed he gets all the stretching he needs from weightlifting without needing anything girly like yoga. *rolls eyes*

*pants* God, I wish they'd turn down the heat. I really have no desire to go into work today, but it's so frakking hot in here since they refuse to turn off the heat. Cannot wait for the cold front tomorrow!!!

Funny, I was just telling someone the other day that I didn't need to stretch because I'm a heavy weight-lifter. That said, this isn't because weightlifting stretches me but rather because I need my muscles to be tighter for maximum-effort pulls.

Well, B does do normal stretches and such and then does his workout to maximize opposite muscle stretching (ie back and chest lifting on same day, etc).

I'm just much tighter than he is (lots of sugar in childhood and never really being able to touch my toes). AFter my shoulder injury a couple of years back, I have a lot of problem with "overstretching" my back accidentally, which results in pain for a day or so. Which is why I had to give up what little yoga I knew (downward dog = pain for days).

B just switched back to Arnold's full workout, but has concluded he has to stop most heavy bicep curls due to tendenitis. And of course, he doesn't think his almost 20 inch biceps are big enough *shakes head*

Enjoying the ice in KS?
