I didn’t listen to the podcast, I used the app. But I’m sure it only advises you to repeat week 5 if you struggled with Run 3. If you completed it there is no reason why you can’t move on to week 6. Well done on finishing week 5 😊

Thanks. I started using the roll massage stick as well. It’s nice tho I’m not sure how much pressure I should be doing etc

If it is nice..you are not using enough pressure,, you need to feel the knots un-knotting.. and it is only nice afterwards :)
