A light at the end of the PT tunnel

I got on a treadmill today!

I walked 4 mintues and ran one minute. Repeat once. Then more Graston. The bruising is almost gone, but I think he gave me some more today. Haven't looked yet, haha.

My PT routine has lengthened itself into a full fledged work out. I don't have time for Beachbody stuff on most days anymore. Bridges and clamshells with a resistance band, side stepping with a resistance band, ankle inversions with resistance, gastroc stretching, front step downs, side step downs, squats, single leg squats, roman dead lifts, jump and hold, Y-balance... I probably forgot something. I made them write me a list, haha. I add a couple sets of pull ups, various push ups, chin ups, and a couple rounds of ab work and I'm finishing up a 40 minute work out session. Unfortunately it's low intensity so I feel like I'm losing conditioning because I can't get to the gym as often as I'd like to cycle/swim or even do something like Core de Force or T25 at home.

But despite all that - I got on a treadmill today and I RAN :) so I can go to bed happy!
