3 miles easy LIKE IT AINT NO THANG. (2 min walk breaks to "hip-check" every mile).
freezing cold; 27 degress, with 20mph winds and I STILL loved it haha. Around 8:30-40 pace.
25 mins elliptical
3 miles treadmill, with 2 x 2 min walk breaks between miles. First mile at 9:13 pace, miles 2-3 at 8:30 avg pace. 1.5 % incline.
No pain. Woop!
40 mins elliptical
3 x pushups (20), airsquats (30), lunges (15 each side) and single leg squats (15 each side)
Was going to run and sooooo wanted to. But hip didnt feel 100%. No need to push it.
50 mins elliptical and long stretch. Realized that hip discomfort is muscle tightness; goes away when I stretch and roll.
4 miles. BOOM. 8:30 avg pace, with 2 x 2 min walk breaks for hip check.
Core/upper body: 3 x pushups (20), bicycle crunches (20), dumbbell bench press with leg raise (20 - hard!) and bent over rows (20 each side)
65 mins elliptical
Nice long stretch n roll.
