First attempt at running a couple days ago wrecked my adductors (inner thigh), so I’m definitely working on stretching now.
Wednesday: 4.6 miles walk w/ a few running intervals, mostly walking. ~140 HR max.
Friday: 1.2 miles walk w/ 5 running intervals. 150 HR at the end.
I’m pretty happy with what I did today. Not used to my heart beating like that. Feels pretty amazing. So I’m gonna do that 3x a week until I learn how to run a mile.
Thinking...
MWF running.
T: Yoga/Dance.
Th: Body weight exercises.
Shouldn’t be too hard to stick with.

Wrecked how? Cramps?
Don't forget your electrolytes.

I've noticed it is really rare to stretch out after exercise... Even though I'm sure this was one of the very basics taught in school!
Is it true neglecting to stretch makes the muscles grow back more swollen, giving the illusion of greater gains?

I've literally never heard this. You'll get a pump whether you stretch or no lol.
