                        If anything, I think I'm doing better now. Late spring and summer just has so many damn distractions, with weekend camping trips, Rock on the Range and so on, where I'd go four days and wind up taking 5 off to recuperate from the weekend. Now, I'm doing a consistent 6/7 days routine with the only potential "misses" being the few Saturdays with noon Buckeye games.Automatik;1749438 wrote:Did everyone quit working out because football is here? :laugh:
Anyway, what about foam rolling? Lately I've been getting very sore after leg workouts and finally decided to give it a try. I've been doing it nightly just to get in the routine and holy shit, it hurts like hell.

I got a free 3 week trial. I think it's only like $40 anyways. So far I like it so I'll probably just buy it.

                                While the info is beneficial, you could have figured that out on your own without dropping $40. 
Not bad though, I've known people to get scammed out of A LOT more than that.

                        Well, if it's a fake placebo sort of remedy, you could directly compare it to religion, if that's what you're asking.DeyDurkie5;1753072 wrote:Does your water have some sort of religious value to it?

                        Good to hear you're on the way back because I can feel that pain. Just shows how much I've gotten into the whole "daily workout" routine, because the thought of taking an extended forced hiatus would about drive me insane, I think. Not just for the working out part, but because it just kickstarts my day now. Gets me motivated and ready for work, burns nervous energy so I can focus better and all that stuff.Azubuike24;1753080 wrote:3 days away from full Dr. clearance!
