- Golf balls are not for slicing. This is how marathoners use them when they’re not actually hooking into the forest (if you’re a beginner, start with a tennis ball and work your way to the hard little golf ball).
- a. Keep a sport ball of your comfort level under your desk (I have one at home and office).
- b. Wear pumps or slip-on shoes (or if you can work at home, bare feet).
- c. Set a trigger for yourself. For instance, when you actually get an email that adds value to your work.
- d. Whenever your “trigger” comes up, slip off your shoes and step on the ball, rolling it up and down the bottom of your foot for a minute or so.
- Tennis racket or baseball bat.
- a. Lie on your back.
- b. Draw your knees perpendicular to your hips.
- c. Place handle of racket or bat at your ankles.
- d. Roll the bat up to your knees and back 3 or 4 times for a quick DIY calf massage. Great for single people like me. Can also be done with a rolling pin. Hell, I never bake any more anyway…
- Treadmill:
- a. After you get home from your run and wash out your stinky running clothes, hang them on the treadmill to dry.
- b. When it is snowy or icy outside, your clothes are handy if you must run indoors.
