* Choose 2-3 Lower Body Mobility Drills and spend 10-12 minutes with them.
* Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills and spend 5-10 minutes with them.

Nutrition Preparation
* Ensure that you have quality foods shopped for in the appropriate quantities to fuel your efforts for the remainder of the week.

D.
Mental Restoration
* Different for everyone – could be meditation or could be gathering with friends on Zoom or Skype; the key is to engage in activities that make your life full and help you recharge your batteries.

Nicely done to you too! I’m glad you enjoyed the workout! You crushed it, and I like how you added a little rest into it. I overestimated how much I could get done, and aimed for 5 rounds. I couldn’t keep that pace after round 1.

I can’t imagine doing C after the heavy lunges you did yesterday.
