Today was an off day, a long overdue off day. It felt good to just relax for a day and mend some nagging injuries.

   I mixed things up a little bit today, instead of doing the normal technical work that I usuallydo on a Sunday (and risk making my heel worst)  I brought it to the beach and did all my bounds and short approach jumps on sand. The sand absorbed a large amount of the impact and the imprints left were good for understanding my foot contacts. I tried to focus on getting my heel under me but it was hard to get enough air time from sand. Even if it was just a "mental" practice I think it put me in the right frame of mind.

Today was another pretty easy day, I spent about an hour in the morning trying to stretch everything out and work through a full tight spots. In the evening I did a brief ab circuit just for a little stimulation.
