17 days

It has been 17 days since I last posted a blog. 17 days filled with complete misery but it's over!!! I finished my first semester of sophomore year and it is truly a surreal feeling to know that I am almost half way done with college. Enough ruminating on how fast time flies and more talk about blogging!

I was so excited to fly through airport security and get to my gate quickly so that I could sit down and finally check out blogger. I have shown some pretty great self-control and I have managed to not log on to blogspot once since finals had started. I decided to end the semester just the way that I started it... with some Las Palapas. It isn't really the snazziest little bistro to eat at but the food is delicious and you can gurantee that there will be a Mexican soap opera on one t.v. screen and a Spurs game on the other. To start my trip off I decided to hit up something else that I wouldn't be able to eat in WA - Dunkin' Donuts, nothing like an iced coffee and a bagel with cream cheese to start off a fabulous day of traveling. Just to keep my flight from getting boring I picked up a little light reading...

Cosmo is the definition of guilty pleasure! I can't wait to break into this I also brought The Brothers Karamazov along. Hopefully I can manage to finish it by the time that the break is over. I'm also looking for some light fun reading so if anyone has a suggestion please comment below :)

I'm so glad to be home now!! I can't wait to finally be able to do some day to day blogging and cook my own food!

Warm Ups for Improved Mobility

Here are some of the mobility warm up exercises I do before training. They will all help with flexibility, performance and avoiding injury.

1. Shoulder Rolls

Take a broomstick or PVC pipe and hold with a wide grip. Keeping your arms straight, raise the bar upwards and above your head. If possible move the bar all the way down towards your lower back. This is best achieved with a shoulder shrug at the top of the movement. If you can do this easily then take a narrower grip on the bar and repeat. Perform 10-20 repetitions.

2. Lunge Stretch

Holding the broomstick or PVC pipe overhead, take a big lunge step forwards. Hold this position for 45-60 seconds. Repeat on the opposite leg.

3. Overhead Squat

With the broomstick or PVC pipe held overhead, perform a squat. Keep the chest high, feet flat and push your hips backwards into the squat. Perform 10-20 repetitions.

4. Squat Stretch

Sit down into a deep squat and, using your elbows, push your knees outwards until you feel a stretch in the groin. Hold for 60-120 seconds.

5. Shoulder Retraction

While hanging from a bar, practice 'activating' your shoulders by drawing your shoulder blades downwards. Hold this position for 5-10 seconds then relax and hold the stretch. Repeat this 5 times without coming off the bar.
