Pre-Conditioning & Post-Conditioning

Let’s go back let’s go back let’s go back…

Last night I noticed my right hamstring was unusually tight, almost worryingly so. It was fine this morning but things can get wierd deep into a conditioning session. With that in mind, I did a bit more warmup than I might have otherwise.
-
Normally, if I’m tight, I’ll just do a “practice mile” which does 2 things: First, it’s preparatory activity for the actual work. Second, it lets me verify the bike actually works properly.
-
Today, I rolled that hamstring to loosen it up first. Then, to get some blood into the entire posterior chain I did the Quadruplex for a minute each side. I followed that with a minute of Good Mornings with a Monster-Mini Band.
-
I took my, “practice mile” next and had a really good 25Km session as a result. That may have been the case without the extra warming up but better to err on the side of caution.
-
Taking some time on the front end to identify hazards and establish controls for safety is literally my day job. I would be a fool to not apply that mindset to my day to day training as well.
