A lacrosse ball works wonders for the plantar fascia (and glutes and shoulders and pretty much anywhere else that it's hard to use a foam roller). Smoother to roll around than a golf ball cause it doesn't have all those little divots.

Also, 135 lb squat = strong = ...what?

Raw beets taste nice, pretty sweet. Grated, with a balsamic vinaigrette with a bit of brown mustard in it. Delicious. Not sure how they'd be juiced.

Yesterday: Walked around a whole bunch.

Today: ankle rehab circuit* plus a bunch more walking around and PIGGING THE FUCK OUT on delicious food.  ;D

*For the record, the ankle rehab circuit goes like this (x2):
--calf raises x15x5s hold at top
--soleus stretch x15s/ea
--calf stretch x15s/ea

then toe/plantar flexor stretch x60s/ea

Last night: aimless shit.

foam roll x20mins
mobility
ankle rehab:
--calf raise on box 2x15x5s hold at the top
--calf stretch 2x15s/ea
--soleus stretch 2x15s/ea
--plantar flexors stretch x15s/ea

row x5mins @easy pace
incline walking x10mins @ easy pace (how can walking not be easy?) 9.0 incline, 4.2 mph
christ indoor cardio is boring

shoot hoops x15-20mins, was on fire for a while and even made a half court shot, first try.  ;D No glass, nothing but net (well, and back rim).

stretch

I'm gonna bring a book next time for the incline walking to see if I can push it a little bit longer. It's boring as crap but my HR did get up to 131 or so, which is just at the bottom of needing to breathe above normal for me. Plus my ankle felt okay on the rows, so that's good news. Mostly I was just looking at different ways to get my HR up a bit without running. Meant to do core but got lazy

Why not try using a girls' basketball? It's still "dunking a basketball." Not even joking.

Foam rolling: Great activity? Or the greatest activity?

Foam rolling hurts like a motherfucker (at least for my adhesion-packed ass) but it feels so good afterward and it helps so much with tissue health in the medium-long term. Could not agree more with this.

Other nice things to do are rolling the bottom of your foot, shoulders and glutes with a tennis or lacrosse ball. And calves/soleus/peroneals if you're feeling especially masochistic.
