Today was pretty good, I slept in and when I woke up I did my requirements like usual. I practiced my creative form some, just trying to get everything to muscle memory. Later in the day, I went to sparring class which was good. After class I had a mentee session. When I came home, my legs became very sore, not just the muscles but my shin bones. The rest of the night, I tried to stay off of my feet as much as possible in order to rest and promote recovery.
