My quads and ass are barely sore anymore. Still can’t believe I wasn’t destroyed from Saturday. I guess all the other lunges and single leg work is paying off. Out in the garage at 4pm.
Warm-up
10:00 Airdyne
Went 202 cals and 5.01 km.
Strength
5 Sets
- 5 Deficit Strict HSPU (0, 1.75, 3, 3.75, 4.5“)
- 15 Front Raises (8#)
The most I’ve ever done for a one rep deficit was 11.5 inches, several years ago. A couple of weeks ago I did 10 reps at about 4 inches, so this was disappointing. I wonder if I don’t have my hands as wide when I’m on stacked plates, which would make it a lot more difficult. I’ll have to play around with it.
Conditioning
- 30-20-10 Burpees
- 30-20-10 Push Presses (75#)
- 60-40-20 DU
In those first few push presses I could feel it was going to be terrible. Triceps were already blown up. I used a rack so I wouldn’t have to pick the bar up off the ground and I managed to stick to all sets of 10, resting the barbell on my back in two of the three breaks. Never missed a double under and finished in 8:39.
Midline
3 Rounds
- 45s Lying Leg Lifts
- 45s Turtles (Heel Touches)
- 45s Hollow Hold
- 45s Russian Twist
- 1:30 Rest
I had to do scaled hollow holds after round one and didn’t use any weight for the Russian twists. Been two months since I’ve done any ab work like this!
