After 4 days and nearly 40 hours in a vehicle getting from Michigan to California, it is finally time for me to rest.
My dad and I drove for 4 days across 8ish states to get me all the way out to LA for the next 10 weeks and I gotta say...
we. are. sore.
we. are. tired.
we. need. self-care.
So what do you do?
Movement. Eeeeeeasy movement.
- - some assisted lunges (using balance or stability so I can just move my body comfortably)
- - some toe touches (nothing strenuous. literally hinging over slowly and touching my toes)
- - some rotational twists through my entire chain (think of someone trying to wring themselves out like a towel in one direction and then doing it the other way - using a wall helps a ton here)
And even more importantly?
- Hydrate. Hydrate. Hydrate. We were trying not to stop every hour for bathroom breaks and I know the two of us are very under-hydrated.
- Sleep. Sleep. Sleep. Getting back to a sleep schedule will be CRITICAL for recovery. I'm talking bedtimes and morning alarms, fam.
***This entire thread was drafted yesterday but apparently I was so tired I didn't hit "post" !
