Massage therapists - if you or anyone you know is looking for a part-time room to rent, I am still looking for someone to share my space with me. They need not be a massage therapist, but someone who could integrate well into a holistic approach. Office is in a gym in Marietta - near the square. Office is spacious, rent is fair, and scheduling is just about what we figure out works for the two of us. Please share and pass on the word. I can be reached at [email protected]

Recovery Tip #5

Training is a yang activity; yang is fire, destructive, catabolic, and sympathetic nervous system driven. Recovery should be a yin activity; restorative, building, relaxing and parasympathetic nervous system driven.

One of the best ways to improve your yin state is to get a massage on recovery days.

I recommend experimenting with different styles of massage but avoid anything too deep or stressful, as this can cause unnecessary soreness. Keep pressure light-to-moderate so you can relax, breathe deeply, or maybe even fall asleep.

Sports massage, Swedish, stone, or Thai are some of my favorites and leave me feeling the most relaxed during and after.

Hey there, facebook folks. If anybody knows of any massage therapists or other wellness professionals who would be interested in sharing my office space with me, inside a gym in Marietta, I am in need of a "roommate." Rent is fair, and scheduling is flexible. If you know of anyone who may possibly be interested, please pass this on to them, and share my contact info. Thanks!

Lots of good work going on here, today!

In the meantime, here's an article you can read on foam rolling.

What Is a Foam Roller, How Do I Use It, and Why Does It Hurt? So you've got a foam roller, but do you know how to use it? Do you know what it's actually doing and why it hurts? Here's some info on how to do self-myofascial release (that's what it's called).

If being a professional means getting paid to do something, then the existence of paid professionals must mean the rest of us are amateurs, right? I was accustomed to being an amateur CrossFitter-specific to CrossFit. But now I'm just an amateur exerciser? http://profitnessleague.com/
