I planned to run today after nice 2 days of rest. However, I started mobility routine that was quite heavy on leg muscles, so they are really sore today. Additionally, my dog have a small wound on her paw, so it will help her to heal as well ❤️‍🩹

I do recognise importance of rest and muscle regeneration. The science says that we get stronger 💪 during the rest period after our exercises. It is rebuilding that makes us better ☺️

I have a strong decision to run tomorrow, probably a nice morning run before heat will hit.

Well done you... rest is as important as the exercise.

There is a post about just this...on the Strength and Flex Forum..

Take it gently and do take a peek when you are on the Strength and flex Forum at all the lovely exercises that are there, for those tired muscles:)
