Quick Report

Doing okay on the workout front. Saturday, I managed to get in a mountain bike ride with the wife. We rode for about an hour and a half with a friend. The weather was perfect and the trails were fun without being too challenging. Very nice.

Sunday was spent at the lake. Mostly, I just hung out in the boat and enjoyed the weather. I even got a little sun.

Monday was an evening workout at Unity Martial Arts. Not too stressful, but definitely fun and informative.

Yesterday, I put together a full-body workout I could do in the back yard. I did 15-12-9 of 35# Kettlebell Swings, 70# Push Press and Pull Ups. I thought about doing thrusters instead of the push press, but I would have had to come down on the weight. I manged to finish the workout in 9:38. Not too shabby, but I want to do better.

I think I'll take a break today. I have some errands I need to run tonight. If I do anything, I'll probably do martial arts again.

Filthy Almost 50

Didn't feel much like a workout this evening. Rainy weather just makes me want to lay abed and be lazy. Instead, I got out and did a scaled Filthy Fifty workout. It consisted of completing the following (for time):
35 Box Jumps
35 Jumping Pull-Ups
35 Kettlebell Swings (35#)
35 Walking Lunges
35 Knee Raises
35 Push Presses (40#)
35 Super Mans
35 Burpees
35 Rope Jumps

The total time was 19:54. The burpees were the hardest. I had a little back pain during the burpees until I modified my form a bit by spreading my knees. I did the workout without much warm up, since I had to take care of my daughter. It wasn't the workout I planned, but it was a good one all the same.
