130: L3, L4, L5 and that blister
Manage episode 313375724 series 3268480
Here’s the thing, when I do long rowing machine sessions, I am quite often reminded that my hamstrings are short and need a stretch, and I should know better.
There are two ways I often get to know that they are, and both are uncompromisingly bloody obvious very quickly in the session.
One way is I get a small friction blister on my bum cheek by my coccyx bone around the area of my sacrum, and the other is I get a dull pain in my L3, L4, L5 joints in my lumbar spine.
And all it says to me is “you need to do some more work on stretching your hamstring out” and also “make sure to get some movement into the hip flexors”.
I should know better, maybe I should have stretched more after the long walk with Oban my dog!
