I feel really stupid for doing the sets of jumps during yesterday's swim trainings. Apparently such intense activity on the legs should be avoided, especially so since I didn't even run at all last week in the name of 'recovery'.
Why didn't I use my brains?
When your captain ask you to go jump, you go jump. Literally.
AHHHHHhhhhhh! Now my calves hurt a lot. And I think I quite damanged the muscles I'm worried. Seeing how jumps are suppose to work your thigh muscles but my calves are giving me sharp shooting pains even worse than walking down steps after stan chart.
Sigh. And I wanted to run on Monday cuz I would've not run for 1 week.
Another quote from Swim to Win by Coach Ed Nessel:
After giving the reasons on why....... So for the breaststroker, no running, no doing stairs, no kneeling on hard surfaces while doing chores or hobbies. Purpose is not to harm the knee which is very impt in breastroke.
No running?!?!?!?!
