Recovery Cards

My legs are trashed from the last few days. Was actually glad to see a deck of cards programmed for today.

Warm-up

About 6:00 on our own. I focused on some bottom squat holds and shoulder stretching for the most part.

Conditioning

“Deck of Cards”

Suits:

  • ♣ – Air Squats
  • ♠ – AbMat Sit-ups
  • ♦ – 2x Russian Twists (35# KB)
  • ♥ – Burpees

Ranks:

  • Ace – 20 Reps
  • King, Queen, Jack – 10 Reps
  • 10 through 2 – face value
  • Joker – Same movement as last card, but double the reps

I substituted in the Russian Twists for American KBS because of my shoulder. Kept a nice steady pace and was lucky on my jokers, but I did get 4 hearts in a row at one point for 33 burpees. Finished in 26:11 and got home early. Rest day and chiropractor tomorrow. Hopefully the shoulder will be ready to go this weekend for whatever 14.3 brings.
