Today is Thursday and we traditionally do squats perhaps a deadlift mixed in and punch throats. It's one of the BEST days of the week.
One of my female participants has a very stressful position in the healthcare profession at one of the busiest hospitals in NorCal.
Sleep is always a determining factor for her and her family. She tells me, "sometimes I don't sleep and I'm ok. Other times I don't sleep and I'm really cranky. BUT...Squats always make me feel better." Which is true, when you think about it...
Have a bad day? Go squat
Have a good day? Go squat
Lose a shit ton of money in the stock market? Go squat
Win the heart of your best significant other? Go squat
I think the squat releases those same endorphins that running brings about.
But HEY...if you're going to go for a run, might as well squat right afterward to make it ALL BETTER...
