I didn't realise how sick I was until I tried doing my "max", I couldn't reach 10 press ups, which is complete madness. Anyway, on day 4 now, and yes I'm pretty tight, but I just feel firm rather than full DOMs. Yes it's a pain in the arse rather than a sustainable method, but I do feel good, and it stops me getting too hung up on specific problems when I'm trying to work at the same time
edit2: as in it helps me break the work day up, into windows, stops me looking at one possible issue all day, as I know I need to break to do five minutes on the floor at some point. Not looking forward to tomorrow, 30 minutes is gonna be difficult, not even thinking about next week with 20 and 15 intervals
