Monday Report

I took it pretty easy this weekend. I had my first green stripe test at Unity Martial Arts on Saturday. Part of the test was a "stamina" portion. This focused on whether we could do a certain number of push ups, lunges and punches from rectangular stance. This wasn't too difficult, but they did it at the start of the test to kind of wear me out a bit before the knowledge portion of the test. The test was made a little more difficult because I was still feeling a little under the weather.

Sunday I decided to take things easy. I read and napped mostly. By the end of the day, I started feeling quite a bit better. I think I did the right thing.

Today, Monday, was a good workout day. I spent about 30 minutes warming up, including some work on my jump rope. Then I did a scaled version of Cindy. Did 5 pull-ups, 10 push-ups and 15 squats, AMRAP in 15 minutes. Only managed to get through 9 rounds in that time frame. Tough workout. I'm glad I did it. Thought about doing the full Cindy, but I didn't think I had it in me.

Funny thing about the workout. I've had problems with my pull ups, so I expected that to be an issue. Instead, my pull-ups were fine. Instead, my push ups were what sucked! I guess it's time I worked on a new goat.
