Whole new set of muscles

I played racquetball the other day...for the first time in what must be 25 years. Wow what a quick and intense workout. I thought it might be a good cross training method and so I took the dare from a friend. He plays 6-8 times a week. I found my stamina to be good, but my oh my...I tried to play like the last time I was on a court, once I got the hang of having walls all 'round me again. Really need to play at a much more mature pace I think and rely on my wily veteran moves.

At any rate I was sore for days...particularly the glutes...just do not bend over that way so much while running in a straight line.

Great exercise...thanks Dave...he promises to introduce me to handball next. Yikes...
