Day: June 23, 2019

Last night I played a quick 18 holes (riding in a cart) in less than 2.5 hours. I wish every round of golf could be that fast.

Open gym at 10am…

Conditioning

30:00 AMRAP

• 2 Legless Rope Climbs (13′)
• 25/25m walking Sled Push (180#)
• 10 Decline Push-ups (feet on curb)
• 50/50m Single Arm Farmer Carry (70# KB)

Originally written as 10 rounds, but I put a 30 minute cap on it and nobody finished. I got through 9 rounds and the rope climbs. Wore a glove on my left hand to protect my ripped palm and my right hand just aches now from the rope. Since we only have two ropes and two sleds I knew there would be some rest built in to this workout, otherwise I would have been able to finish. I was getting real close to failure on those rope climbs, so 20 legless in a long workout seems to be my limit. Started out with only one 45# plate on the sled, but it was really easy so added a second one.

Tabata

• Bottom-to-Bottom Air Squats

Started out hot, faded in the middle, and pushed at the end to hit 100 reps. Didn’t know it until I recorded my score on BTWB, but that ties my best from three years ago when I last did this.

Midline

• 150 Sit-ups

I’ve done 100 many times but never 150 in a row. It’s not fun. Went unbroken in 5:41. I’m going to feel those for a few days.

Year of the Engine – Polarized

24:00 Airdyne

** Endurance pace with 7s sprints @ 5, 10, 15, 20.

I expected week five to keep progressing, but it takes a slight step back on the first polarized and endurance workouts. I got 707 cals and 14.46 km.

Might be a light week for workouts as long as golf doesn’t get rained out (looks like it’s going to rain tomorrow), since I’m also going to watch a pro tournament this week.
