Thursday
We worked on finding our one rep max in the back squat. I thought mine was around 145 lbs. I looked on the computer and it said it was 175! Crap. I managed to do 175 today but it wasn’t pretty. I must have been in superwoman mode the day I did that.
Then we did a 1000 m row. I did it in 5:09.
The workout was as many rounds as possible of:
- 1 rope climb or 3 pull to stands on the rope
- 10 kettle bell swings – I did 35 lbs.
- 15 GHD sit ups – That looks like this.
Actually I look nothing like that when I do it but you get the idea.
I did 3 full rounds and rope pull to stands and the kettle bells again.
Weekend
I was out of town all weekend judging a trail ride. I did some hiking around to find horses or to get to judging spots on the trail. I also ate lots of forbidden food. I willfully ate doritoes and tootsie rolls.
Tuesday
These rides and the travel kicks my butt. I got in at midnight Monday morning and had to go to work yesterday. I went to bed when I got home and skipped working out this morning. I feel much better. I’m going to go swim today to get at least a little exercise in.
Travel always knocks me for loop — and usually more than I expect even though it’s not like I haven’t experienced it before. Swimming should be a good way to get going again.
