Hips Don't Lie

So, I did an abbreviated Simple and Sinister three weeks ago and nada since.  My left hip has been giving my lots of trouble. I finally made an appointment to see an orthopedist on 11/30/2016.

Well, I didn't do any exercise other than walking until Native Americans' Day, otherwise known as Thanksgiving. That day, Friday and today I did an Original Strength reset and a couple of "naked" getups per side.

Original Strength Reset

• Cross Crawl - 20 per side
• Crocodile Breathing - 2 minutes
• Head Nods - 20 reps
• Rolling - 4 reps left and right first leading w/ legs then arms
• Rocking - 20 reps
• Crawling - 3 minutes

"Naked" Turkish Get Ups 2 per side

I need to remember to re-incorporate the "Wide Leg Founder" into this simple routine. I'm just trying to get a little mobility, stability and flexibility going until I get a good diagnosis and recommendation for the doctor on Wednesday.

And I'm Back

What happened? I don't even know. I know I tweaked my back a little and took a few days off...and here we are months later. OK. Let's see what we can do between now and the end of the year.

Warm Up Original Strength Reset

• Cross Crawl - 20 per side
• Crocodile Breathing - 2 minutes
• Head Nods - 20 reps
• Rolling - 3 reps left and right first leading w/ legs then arms
• Rocking - 20 reps
• Crawling - 2 minutes

Simple and Sinister

• Two Hand Kettlebell Swings 5 x 10 x 35 lbs
• Turkish Get Ups 3 x 1 x 25 lbs per side

Cut sets of both swings and get ups. I cut the weight. Just want to get in a groove without making myself too sore. With just the little bit of exercise above I can feel a little soreness. Crazy.
