a week of updates

It's been a little over a week since the last post. Complacent...yes. This is a training update.

In short,I think I have a problem other than the usual chronic pain. I have some sort of imbalance that is causing my adductors to over compensate during running. Yes, I know running sucks and is not the best exercise but as a combat athlete (Marine), running is part of my job so I suck it up and do it. Normally as little as I can get away with. I guess it is part of the puzzle.

The easy solution is don't run. The other solution is to figure out the imbalance and correct it. I'm absolutely certain the solution can be found in something like this hypothetical-fictional Z Health solution: Standing in the Neutral look up through the forehead like the lizards on the Galapagos Is. or Fernando Valenzuela, at the same time rotate only the pinkie finger about 4x each direction. -- Well, I think it's funny! All kidding and exaggeration aside, it's really this easy.
