My legs are stiff! A few Nike Club Workouts, a couple intense walking sessions, ineffective stretching … My legs are tight and stiff.

So after today’s walk around Antrim Lake in the sun, I was sitting around feeling stiff thinking about how I need a massage, when it ocurred to me — I have The Stick!

I have a love/hate relationship with The Stick. First, if used correctly, it is great for relieving the pain and stiffness in muscles. Second, in order to get that kind of relief, you have to really dig in with it, and that really, really HURTS! Is the cure worse than the ailment? I don’t know.

The problem is, I can’t apply enough pressure to get that total relief. When it starts to hurt, I stop. I can’t help it — I’m a wimp. What I really need is to get someone who doesn’t mind causing me pain to roll out my legs. Before all of you come running to volunteer, I was thinking I would ask my husband.
