Yesterday I was feeling better with regards to the cold. My back did not feel very good though. Probably did too much too soon this week. Glad it was time for a rest day. My triceps started to feel a little sore last night. Still took cold meds this morning and I was thinking it would be the last of it, but I was hacking up a lung at the gym and sound all stuffed up. Not feeling any improvement in my back or with the strained calves. Went to open gym at 10.
Warm-up
5:00 Echo Bike
Did 52 calories.
Conditioning
6 Rounds
- 30s Echo Bike
- Transition
- 20s Wall Sit
- 2:00 Rest
My calories were 17-17-16-15-16-15. As nasty as I expected it to be.
Accessory
5 Sets
- 20 Shoulder Taps (facing wall, tap across)
- 5 Strict HSPU (facing wall)
- 100′ Farmer Carry (53# KBs)
- 1:30 Rest
We don’t have our big mats at the gym, so I cart-wheeled up for my shoulder taps and then side shuffled over and up on some plates with an AbMat for the handstand push-ups. Might have been the first time I’ve done those facing the wall and it’s a lot different. Good to work on them fatigued after the taps like that. This work ended up being a lot harder than I expected.
Midline
10 Sets
- 10s RKC Plank
- 20s Rest
Gymnastics
Worked on handstand walks and I’m making some solid progress already. Got out to 15 and 20 feet. I’m starting to feel things and be able to make changes in the middle of a walk.
