Friday! Friday! (and Hamstring Help!)

Who else is glad that it’s FRIDAY?!

This week hasn’t exactly been stressful, but I guess it’s just been one of those weeks for me.  This weekend, I plan on getting some good workouts in — boot camp tonight, training session tomorrow — and catching up on my writing and blog reading.  And in general, I’m just going to try to pull it together! I want to make some more of my mom’s fab turkey chili too, and if I do, I’ll be sure to post a recipe! Or maybe just a picture because I’m still amazed that I haven’t minded being in the kitchen lately.

What about everyone else? What are you up to this fine fall weekend?  Give me the details! I hope for your sake it’s something more exciting than what I’ve got going on!

And last item on the agenda… I need your help! I did some deadlift-y move the other day, and ever since, my hamstrings have been crying/screaming/preventing me from walking appropriately.  I know I can foam roll and do the usual exercises, but anyone else have a creative or just really GOOD stretch that will restore my normal range of motion? Help!

My name is Heather, and I moved from a big Midwestern university to a GIGANTIC Midwestern city. I'm working at a gym as a personal trainer, and I work as a freelance writer on the side. Sometimes I pretend to be an adult. I'm also figuring out how to keep my mouth shut every once in a while -- not here, though. How boring would that be?

  1. downward dog can help a little bit, what I usually do is put my foot up on a counter and lean foward and really work the hip/hams/quads. You can also just sit around in a squat and see if that helps. Barring that, try massage!
