**I’ll point out the obvious elephant in the room – yes there are more squats today. Yes, this is the second day in a row that we’re squatting. If you are still sore from Monday’s air squats, I recommend that you do 2 things and do them starting yesterday.
– #1 – mobilize. This is a general, all-inclusive term for use a foam roller, The Stick, Voodoo floss bands, self massage, a percussive massage gun, etc.. ANYTHING to promote blood flow to the sore areas.
– #2 – move. Walk, row, bike. Do these throughout the day, or get to the gym early and hop on the bike for 5 minutes to get the blood moving. Get on the bike afterwards for 2-5 minutes. It’s more effective than saying ‘wow, I’m sore’, and moving on. Then eat a protein rich meal with some carbs. All of this will lead to smoking quads when it’s short-shorts season.
We’ll start things off with some muscle snatches – same format as last Friday’s clean and jerks. We’re working on moving fast.
