mega lawn mow: > 3 hours. very fun tho. 144 before, 141 after (including drinking a gallon jug of water).. damn that's some serious water loss.
gallon of water = ~8 lb so: 141 lb - 8 lb = 133 lb.
/// -11 lb water loss. forgive me if my math is janked up. bout to sleep.

dinner- stir fry, big shock: red & green bell pepper + jalapeno + 2 x red chili pepper, basmati rice, lots of salt
- very spicy. was great.
03:00 PM - 06:45 PM: lawn mow (fasted)- took a break after doing the back yard and guzzled down nearly a gallon of water. lmao. was really hurting: hot af & tons of effort for ~2 hours.
- made the mistake of putting my push-reel mower down from 3" cut to 1" cut.
- 1" just makes it way too hard.
- so after gutting through it for the back yard, i finally moved it to 2" for the front yard. could barely cut anything in the front, until I adjusted it to 2". then it was fine. still tough but normal.
pool stretch- deepest ever split stretch
- was very wide
- pretty incredible
- right adductor/hip/sacrum much more tight than left - which ironically is the injured side
stretching throughout the day- very intense, mostly targeting the injured areas: glute/hamtrings/hips/sacrum/low back
- finished with ~15 minute hamstring stretches in the evening
- the most interesting one today was the final long duration hamstring stretches: standing, straight leg propped up on kitchen cabinet, hold for ~15 minutes, making small adjustments
- it pulled some old injured spots in my medial hamstring insertions, which used to flare up occasionally when running -> small tear back in ~2009.
- anyway, after feeling that "pull", lots of relief in injured areas
- injured areas (glute/hip/sacrum) seem to also be tied to my adductor/hamstrings, known this for a while now. that's why i've been stretching my adductors so hard recently
if i didn't "pull" my medial hamsstrings, i plan to run tmw morning. did an insane amount of stretching today, usually that means running will be affected.
pc!
