I'm excited! My package of cooling gear came yesterday, so I can try it out today when I go to the gym. My performance should improve when I'm not getting overheated. I got ankle & wrist wraps, a neck wrap, and a under-the-clothes mini cooling vest-wrap. They all have little ice packs that fit in pockets of the wraps.
My MS acts up when I get overheated; something to do with the heat interfering with how my nerves transmit signals. For instance, sometimes my feet don't get the message from my brain to do the steps in Zumba that I know really well & just did perfectly before I got all hot & sweaty. I sometimes feel weak, and more. So, I'm excited to try my new "work-out gear"!
I see my physical therapist today. The stretches she gave me to do and using my foam roller have really helped, but her hands-on work is awesome for getting those tight muscles & IT band to relax. My left calf has a knot that just won't let go. My knees pain is so much less since I've been seeing this PT that I feel like giving her a thank you card or baking her something, lol. Maybe when I have my last visit. :o)
Time for a nice warm bath/shower to help get me moving, then coffee....
