walking

Took about 10 minutes total as I did some extra walking.  Took quite a bit of time to warm up my ankles and knees.  Really interesting that both ankles are still relatively tender even with light jogging.  This is truly odd.  Could be a bit of de-training for sprinting, walking etc. as I have not done as much lately, but upped the KB work.  Not sure.  I think the way to improve this is to do brisk walks.  It's hard to go wrong with brisk walks, so I will do what I can to try top get some more walking in.  I also did a LOT of hanging from the rings to try and stretch out primarily my R shoulder, armpit, oblique, hip.  Things are tight on that side.  It was clear to be doing the first pistol that that R side is just tight.  I think it is an accumulation of a lot of stress from work, been working quite hard lately, probably too much sitting and just not quite enough mobility and related work to offset the increased stress.  Things are fine though, the stretch outs were really good and my body was responding well.  Pull-ups and push-ups were very strong.  After the first set of pistols, pistols were solid as well.  Definitely want to keep these in an extremely small dose at this time, don't want to overdue anything.
