Forgot to stretch after my couch laps and now I'm paralyzed
I've eaten all the gu I can reach from my bed, but I'm all out and the amazon delivery man is refusing to come inside. What do?

The problem is that you needed to SLOW DOWN. And everybody knows you should never do more than one couch lap without stretching. You’re just asking for injury. Maybe get a water bed so you can do water aerobics while you’re down, and the Amazon driver can help?

Came here to say this. SLOW DOWN. Also read some lliterature by Jeff Galloway before you cause further injury to your body.

Absolute troglodyte. Always static stretch first then consume a gu pack. Especially before those ultra 5k's

Yikes, no need for the name calling you big meany. I'm just trying to learn here, so if you don't have anything to say that confirms what I already think, you can just buzz off.
Also, technically, it is only considered an ultra if it is MORE than 5k.

For real tho. Salt tabs are great, and this is the only way to carry them. Damned fine invention.

Idiot! Everyone knows you stretch BEFORE to prevent injury.
See that's why I'm so confused. I did aggressively stretch before and bounced my full body weight to really loosen up those hammys, ya know, but I guess it wasn't enough. Also, I know we're not supposed to talk about it, but I just shat the bed. Help!
I prefer a good ol' medieval torture rack, stretching just like our fathers and forefathers. However as all my extremities are strapped to a rope i cant increase the tension of the ropes manually. So i took the engine of my old lawnmawer and used it to rotate the wheels which roll up the ropes holding my extremities. I use Alexa to control the engine.
Works great, those post stretching workouts feel great. You know you warmed up well if you feel your shins are separating from your knee joints and your whole knee is unstable and wobbling around. It's important to hear that click when your shin meets your femoral bone shortly after your leg meets the ground, that's when you know you stretched well.
