I’ve been throwing in some self-indulgence after a workout lately.\u00a0 My gym has a good whirlpool, so after a hard workout, I soak for awhile.<\/p>\n
I should probably be doing it for no other reason than soreness prevention, but I’m really doing it because it feels good.\u00a0 I don’t always have time after a workout.\u00a0 On days when I’m teaching computer classes, especially if I’m also opening at the gym, I’ve barely enough time to get in a short workout on the weights. Forget a good swim and a soak.<\/p>\n
I kind of wish that the end of the day would be a good time to work out.\u00a0 With my schedule and basic personal rhythm, morning workouts tend to get done.\u00a0 I’ll blow off an evening workout.\u00a0 But the wonderful relaxation I feel after a hard swim and a good soak in the hot tub would definitely be conducive to a good night’s sleep.<\/p>\n
Thing is, if I work out in the mornings, I’m considerably lesslikely to blow off the workout, which is more or less why I do it.<\/p>\n
Question for the female swimmers, how in hell do you keep a decent manicure?\u00a0 I’m finding that for the most part, my nails are softer and polish peels right off.\u00a0 I’m not talking long daggers here, but nicely-filed shortish fingernails.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
