No running today. Instead, I cross-trained. Yea, me! I've been terrible about cross-training for the past year and I'm really trying to do it more often because I know that it helps prevent injuries and improve running performance. So, I turned on my Exercise TV on-demand and got to it. As always, it felt good to workout in a completely different way than I am used to. And, I have to add that when Jackie called for one minute of push ups, I was able to crank them out with ease! So, the never-ending push up challenge is doing me some good.
As a follow-up to yesterday's post, I am pleased to report that I have no lingering ITB pain today. V. happy about that!
Glad to hear there is no more ITB pain!
ReplyDeleteCross training is not my thing either. anythign beside running just sounds boring. I love the exercise tv though! I also netflix exercise videos to change it up.
ReplyDeleteYAY! (ITB band)
ReplyDeleteFrick!!! (Uh, if you've started cross training does that mean I must? Am I the only one left in PLATEAUville?)

One minute of push-ups! With ease! Sounds like the challenge is doing MUCH good.
ReplyDeleteI too am trying to feel good while cross-training instead of frustrated or bored.
great job on the crosstraining! no matter how many times i say i am going to do it, i just have the hardest time actually getting it done!!
ReplyDeletetfh -- I paced myself on the push ups (read: did them v. slowly) and that worked!
ReplyDeleteCross training is huge in my book! Good move!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on being ITB pain-free! That's excellent news.
