From strokes to the shakes

The swim went well this morning. I added a lap on to each stroke/kick so I’m slowly building back up to my former distances. I’m in no big rush, but I think I will be able to progress pretty quickly. My crawl stroke is feeling great which I think is pretty important in itself. I did a quick erg before my yoga. I can definitely feel that my back is out of shape compared to what it used to be while I was rowing. I’ll have to keep up on the ergs because I would like to get back into rowing next spring if pentathlon training allows. Yoga was nice. We did a lot of partner yoga. Partner yoga is great for getting some good stretches that you normally wouldn’t be able to do yourself, but its not as appealing mentally and spiritually to me. Perhaps if I were doing with a significant other it would provide a different energy. Nevertheless, I was shaking after yoga…the sign of a good workout.
