can anyone give me some insight on my problem?
i lift weights once a week on mondays and dont practice until thursdays to give my muscles time to recuperate...squats are one of my exercises....i also work construction so im constantly walking up and down stairs, moving heavy material around, and just bending down and up all the time leaving my legs pretty tired at the end of the day......then when i go to play the double bass (which im trying to get as fast as i can and working on my control) my legs are always sore and keep me back from my true potential....im trying to get my feet faster and my bandmates always say "use ankle weights when you play" which doesnt seem right in my mind because why would i put extra strain on my legs when theyre already sore enough lol
anyone have any advice or suggestions? thanks everyone
