WW's New SUMMER Log ...

[WoNderWoMan25]

NICE JOB on the squats!! How's the knee feel today?? Make sure you RICE it if you have any pain...I've done that with my knee before...OUCH!!

The knee is okay. I walked instead of jogged this morning. I actually ice it after almost every leg workout, just as precaution. I think thats what you meant - If not, tell me about ricing?

And how was your interview?

I have soooo many green beans and snap peas in my garden right now...thanks for the idea guys!

And fresh is the best kind! So much better than canned or frozen. Enjoy!!

And how was your interview?

Rest
Ice
Compression
Elevation

Basically, don't aggravate if it's paining you and ice it like you're doing....

Guess you saw my post in my log?? Interview was meh - hard to read how I did....was thinking last nite of how I could've answered certain ? better than I did.....

Jen, thanks! I hadn't heard that before!

I am pretty sore from squats on Wed. I got on the precor elliptical last night to stretch out - but ended up having one of my more intense sessions on this machine. Intervals, alternating 2 mins @ resistance 6 and 2 mins @ resistance 16. It was not a pretty sight when I got off... One of the girls at the desk politely brought me towels - not singular, but towels as in two of the bigger size.

THURSDAY UPDATE

Nice back and bi workout. Cardio rocked last night too. I am sore all-over today! Since the forecast says rain all weekend, I am tempted to schedule a massage, but I'm not sure my budget wants me too, ha...

I ate an anpb and sugar-free jelly sandwich on Ezekiel toast last night for dinner. With a whey shake made with skim milk. I was so full after!! I did sneak into the fridge for some strawberries before bed. Overall, yum. A good night.
