Workout Update: Lift More: Day 27

Day 27 was the first of the two rest days, so, as I did last week, I did the two recovery routines from Lift 4: first the stretch routine, then the roll-and-recover routine.  I did notice a slight improvement in flexibility, even on the thing where you sit with your legs stretched out and reach for your toes. I have never been good at that stretch, even when I was a kid and much more flexible than I am now. I was able to bend my back down a little without using a yoga strap, which I have not been able to do probably since about 2008 or 2009.
