Hot/cold showers. Needs to be at least 30 seconds of cold, followed by a good 2 minutes of hot.
Also, if you cramp up a lot especially in the back, try some magnesium supplements.
Then add it to your resume. |

Good thought. Will, it's clear that you need to suck on your Mums breasts. |

I jog/run somewhat regularly.. just the distance was longer than usual about between 12 km or about 7 miles and 17 km or 10 miles or so, no marathon though. sorta slow at times though, and I had to look around a park for keys that dropped out of my pocket so I had a little rest time.
Yeah I need to keep my jogging to a maximum of no more than 3 times per week not counting short warmups or minute sprints as my knees are getting older now. I try to mix things up with biking and swimming for cardio when possible.
A 3 mile run ain't too bad and is around my regular jog/run. |
