Rained for almost two straight days so no golf yesterday and it may not dry up enough to play Thursday. I got some water in my basement that I had to clean up and later spent a little time making improvements to the cable pulley system. In the evening I spent about five minutes practicing hand balancing with the frog stand and wow do my hands and wrists feel it today! Out in the garage at 4pm.
Warm-up
- 8:00 Airdyne (158 cals, 4.01 km)
- Monster Walks
- Monster Squats
- Front Squat
- 10×45#
- 5×95
- 5×135
Strength
5 Sets
- 5 Front Squat (165#)
- 16 Pistols
Front squats felt much heavier than I’d like and the pistols got my heart rate going. Happy to be squatting though. Haven’t done a workout with pistols since November, so they went surprisingly well.
Conditioning
- 25 T2B
- 50 Air Squats
- 25 Pull-ups
- 4:00 Rest & Repeat
The plan was 25 Goblet Squats (53#), but I didn’t want to push it after the strength work. Fifty air squats turned out to be the worst part of the workout; going from hip flexors in toes-to-bars to that many squats lit up my hips! I went 15-10 on both gymnastics movements for 3:01 in the first attempt. Then I jumped the gun and got up for a few reps after only three minutes of rest! Went 15-10 T2B and 15-5-5 pull-ups for 10:09 with the second attempt.
Midline
4 Rounds
- 10 Hollow Rocks
- 10 V-ups
- 10 Tuck-ups
- 10s Hollow Hold
- 1:00 Rest
**Try to do each round unbroken
It’s been over a year since we did this one. It also happened to be the first time I made it through unbroken with a time of 6:08. I was falling apart in round three and then hit the wall in round four and had to break. Still managed a 6:12 though.
I did a little bit of floor PT exercises, which I’ve been slacking on.
