Progress report

I just finished Level 3 session 2 (I think), and the split squats were way too much for both L ankle and R knee. I love the tripod lift but it's much more challenging on my left arm/right leg, the one with the faulty knee. I know I favor the L leg (ankle), but didn't think I was neglecting the L arm as well. Interesting! I will go thru the tutorial on tripod lifts to work on it. I've taken a whole week off rowing and I feel much more "creaky", tight and uncomfortable moving. We have been paddling, 3 times this week, mostly knee-, some belly. I noticed both that I can get back farther on my heels (inches to go!) and that it's much easier now for me to belly paddle with both arms at the same time, which requires lifting both arms above the water for the full stroke recovery. I will work on doing much more paddling for the next few weeks, hoping to continue building strength and mobility in my shoulders and lats.
