Great sleep. Utterly exhausted from my attempts to write today. It destroyed my willpower, and I passed out for a nap exhausted. However, afterwards, late at night I took care of everything else, albeit at lowered minimums. This constant exhaustion with various phases of writing is giving me ideas on how to map out a better progression system for vague skills. I think clearly mapping out such skills will really help.

14-Day Mobility Overhaul, Day 1
I am starting a 14-Day mobility overhaul as written in Becoming a Supple Leopard - it’s sort’ve Kelly Starrett’s version of a 30 day challenge. I’ve done a lot of walking lately and my feet have hurt a lot. My toe has hurt a lot due to rowing with no shoes. My back has been clenching. And all of it released through some dedicated mobilization. It has been incredible, which has really pushed me into the short jump needed to max out my mobilization. 

Today was my first day. It took a little longer than my 15 minutes to read and figure out exactly how to do them. It was incredibly painful and it felt really good.

Good sleep. Incredibly sore, especially hamstrings. Lydia reminded me that at 15 minutes of mobilization I’m close to maxing out the routine, at least according to Kelly Starrett’s course in Becoming a Supple Leopard. I looked it up, and sure enough, he advocates a rotating schedule of mobilizations. I changed it up today to work on my hamstring. Once I switch over to his 14 day challenge and upkeep it, I’ll largely be done with mobilization!
