I was scheduled to work with Sue but it changed to Megan. We worked on the furthest black table. Megan explained to me that Sue had to leave so she took me. I was cool with that! It was “Wacky Sock Wednesday!” I wasn’t at Barwis for the last “Wacky Sock Wednesday” so this one was #35. As I got to the table after Megan told me that I as working with her; I said, “First thing’s first” as I handed her my phone to take a picture of our socks:
I wore the green and white stripes because she grew up in Lansing. (NOT because I’m a State fan!) She wore the “raining cats and dogs” because it WAS raining “cats and dogs!” We did my normal PNFs which feel A LOT stronger and then she asked me if I wanted to stand or work on core. It WAS raining so I opted to work on my core because my legs were stiff and ached more than they normally do because of the barometric pressure.
Working my core made this “A.R. #4.” I sat on the edge of the table and I used the yellow and black 6 lb. medicine ball. I like that one the best and look forward to the day that turning my shoulders, pivoting my waist, and extending the ball up and outward is easy. That day is NOT here yet so Megan told me specifically how I need to move my body and which muscles I need to tense. I TRIED but it ends too many times with me falling over and Megan catching me so I don’t fall off of the table. I attempted these extensions for what seemed like a million times on each side. My sides burned! Yep. This was DEFINITELY A.R. #4!!!
