    I love that challenge! It has kept me on track a few times. For anyone looking for something new I really recommend it. It is a month long so you would be coming in late, I think he allows it (?), if not I'll be sure to post the sign up when it's up for next month as well.

    I feel for you Nancy because I know you go hard every day. I hope you are doing post workout stretches and nutrition to speed your recovery. First thing I do when I get home from pickleball or a workout is fix a protein shake with at least 30 mg of protein (my first meal for the day), get down on the floor and do stretches and then the foam roller on my legs. Then I ice my knees or other aching joints for 30 mins. Also I eat a handful of walnuts (rich in omega-3 fatty acids to reduce inflammation for quicker recovery). I know for me, this really helps.

    Thank you Jim.... awesome advice!!

    I usually do greek yogurt or a protein shake post workout... and every workout a stretch after...but I have been bad about foam rolling--I really dislike it...and know I need to do it.

    I have a friend who runs and his knees/legs are so sore that he takes ice baths... OMG I couldn't do it. I do ice my shoulder though.

    I did put walnuts on my greek yogurt parfait today though.

    Hope your knees are feeling ok---you've been really working hard--WTG J!!!

    My biggest craving is chocolate/desserts--sugar! And basically I have none in the house right now and that is how I am fighting it off---but the holidays will come with lots of desserts and chocolate gifts.... I will try to have it but log every bite to stay on track.

    I didn't exercise today. I had a ladies' brunch this morning and came home and napped for a long time. I needed it bad. I woke up and my knee was screaming so I'm resting it instead of walking. I may go to the gym tomorrow and get some swim/water aerobics time in. Thanks for the app suggestion, @Fitness327wk. I've downloaded it and will try it.

    Blessings,
    Bonnie

    I hear ya.

    At my age, foam rolling is a must so I make myself do it daily, sometimes twice. It's an integral tool for injury prevention, pulling muscles, increasing blood flow, decreasing soft tissue density and increasing flexibilty. I'm notorious for pulling calf/hamstrings, but haven't since I foam roll. Now, I did notice if I don't foam roll within an hour of a workout, my muscles cool off and it hurts to foam roll.

    I love greek yogurt and eat it daily. But my new nutritionist says no dairy, take vitamin D3 supplemets, try it for two weeks and see if I don't feel better. Said it will improve my sinuses, weight and energy. So, I'll give it a try.


    Yeah I did the ice baths, but I can't handle it. Two ice packs directly on my knees is enough.
