Last week was my first week back at derby practice since breaking my leg. Y’all. I am a weenie!
I was absolutely terrified. I’m pretty sure I didn’t pick up my wheels for a good 45 minutes while I slowly (like snail’s pace, y’all) moved around the track. I got lapped like you wouldn’t believe. I tried to do the drills…but edging still makes my ankle tweaky. I am going to get a compression brace this week to see if that helps.
And then there were the falls…those hurt a bit. I have to admit that I wimped out and took a break. I spent the rest of the week working on drills that would help my lateral movement and strengthen my ankles.
For those of you who are new to my working out updates, I am following The Trim Healthy Mama Plan in addition to using Le-Vel supplements, which is why you’ll see letters in parenthesis behind my meals.
