    Thanks guys. I talked to my tri buddy from the pool today, he works at the clinic, but is out on leave. He said the same thing, that if the leg extensions concern me, just tell her to find a closed chain exercise.

    I also asked him about the back to back days. He said he thought it would be ok because he said on the second consecutive day, that we could hit stretching really hard. He feels that my lack of flexibility, which is really bad is causing most of my trouble. Super tight ITB.


    I think that I am going to go Mon and Thurs this week. Wed just makes for a really ugly day for me anyway.

    We have almost a full gym in the basement of our house. Once I learn what to do, I can do a third day at home.

    Thanks for your input..It is greatly appreciated. I am in incharted territory here.

    legs

    If you have concerns about the exercises, i agree, just ask. this is YOUR body. as for back to back days...ask why and what they planned on doing. If you are really that sore after one day, listen to your body. treatment can cause some flare ups, and going in too much can end up being a little painful on the body.

    I had to ask when we'd start adding in the stretching.
    I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...
