The start of each new year gives us the opportunity to re-evaluate our fitness routines from the past and decide what we want to change and what we want to remain the same. For myself, I know that I need to make recovery and self-care an even bigger priority as I move forward in my fitness lifestyle. This means more mobility training, more flexibility training, and a greater emphasis on listening to what my body needs at any given moment. Stretching and recovery will play a larger role in our New Year’s rotation this year to help prepare you for STS 2.0 and the program’s emphasis on taking the necessary time to heal hard worked muscles. This doesn’t mean that we won’t work just as hard as we always have! It means that after we work hard, we put that same level of energy and focus into the recovery portion of our regimen! This rotation will re-visit favorite past series with some tough routines! Work hard, stay focused and enjoy those hard earned recoveries! Remember, on days when added stretches have been included, you don’t have to do the workout and additional stretch in one shot! You can do the stretch right after the workout or at a different point in the day that works for you! You’ve got this!
