So one of my favorite DOMS feelings is from the "blown palm" or standing side stretch in yoga. If I've not done yoga for a while this one really gets me - and I love it.
Went to the in-laws yesterday - Pops always cooks for Mother's Day. MIL, SIL, and DH's aunt and cousin were all there - none of whom exercise at all and all of whom criticize me for my "obsession" - you know the gig. I gave hugs and kisses and well wishes and then called them all into the family room where I pulled out my Bryan Kest power I, already cued up to the standing side stretch. I advised that this wouldn't hurt the "bad backs" or the "bad knees" or the "bad anythings that come from inactivity". I further instructed them on "only nose breathing", we did a minute or so of stretching. And then we did standing side stretching for the full 2 or 3 minutes. Then we were done, and I told them this would be the gift that keeps on giving as they would feel it today.
Phone's been ringing all morning, with grunting and groaning, but some "wow, that really feels good" comments.

. They can hate it if they want, but that's what I gave for mother's day.
