TheEd,
Hit gym at lunch for a stretch and a short core workout. Was a tough little session (40 mins), hit core hard, much needed after Sat nights excess.
Afterwards noticed a slight strain in hamstring, think I acquired this from 5 mins of light martial arts sparring with punch bag as a body warmer before stretching at start - have noticed this before when haven't used punch bag and go back to as a warm up. Normally it leads to nothing serious and clears within 24-48 hours.
Have just treated the hamstring with some Tiger balm and a strong thumb, already feels better!
Was there a plan for a run tomorrow? I feel a short easy might be in order until this hamstring thing has cleared up?
Catchup soon,
D
