The pain is real

[Schofield]

So.... I had to cancel my wk7r1 today due to body pump class yesterday, it was very squat based needless to say I can hardly walk so I didn’t think running today would be a good idea. I have forced myself to walk 5k though. I’m hoping the muscles feel better after a long hot bath

That class you go to sounds to me very nasty😥"body pump class" 😪ouch, seems like a punishment exercise class . No wonder you have been struggling to walk 5k after doing all these squats, I hope you recover from your injury and hope you enjoy your journey with the 5k running as soon as possible 🙆

[Schofield Graduate in reply to AlMorr]

It did seem like a punishment at the time 🙈🙈 I’ve stupidly signed up for more though, I’m hoping it gets easier and less painful. I’m loving the c25k journey so far, never thought I’d class myself as a runner.

But take comfort in having the most toned glutes on the block

That’s the end game hopefully. As much as it hurts now I’m going to push through and get back to running in the morning. I’ve got radox muscle soak and a good book 😆😆

[Myrar Graduate]

Hope your pain eases after your long soak ..well done for still doing your walk ...good luck for tomorrow 😊😊

[Schofield Graduate in reply to Myrar]

I hope it eases too 🙈🙈 thanks for the good luck, I may need it lol

Squats are great for knees and glutes so it should benefit your running so long as you don’t over do it.

[Schofield Graduate in reply to Dexy5]

Good to know that it may help, fingers crossed I can run tomorrow, may be slower than usual but I’ll keep going

[UnfitNoMore Graduate]

A body pump class would make me run. Obviously in the opposite direction. Good call on the walk, the run will be waiting tomorrow.

[Schofield Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

It was surprisingly enjoyable at the time 🤣🤣 definitely think I made the right decision though and not attempted any running today

[UnfitNoMore Graduate in reply to Schofield]

I haven’t yet... I’d best get my ass in gear

[Schofield Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

Trainers on..... and go 👍

[UnfitNoMore Graduate in reply to Schofield]

Yes miss 😂

[Schofield Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

[UnfitNoMore Graduate in reply to Schofield]

I’ll be posting progress later... it’s like handing homework in all over again 😂

I love pump. I’m new to running but have done pump for a while. It gets easier... promise! I remember the 1st time I did it... it was 2 days later when I really felt it!!! I’m just about to start week 3.. hope I get to week 7!

[Schofield Graduate in reply to Flutegirl]

You’ll get there.... I’m seriously loving it... for next pump class tomorrow, I’ve just done wk7 r1 to try and loosen my muscles up a little
