Tune into your body’s needs with long stretches in between days of more intense exercise.
Fall marching season is now in full swing, so it’s a good time to assess what you’re doing to and with your body.
First, take stock. Are you always in pain? Do you constantly feel like your body is dragging? Are you getting enough rest—as in actual sleep as well as days in between intense physical activities?
To help get in tune with my body, I like to incorporate really long stretches on rest days. These days come so infrequently it seems, so being able to really get into the muscle is almost a luxury.
I suggest first taking a warm bath or hot shower and then putting on sweats to get ready.
