Thursday
Sooooo sooooore! We did lots of leg work on Tuesday and there was more today.
We did front squats. That means holding the weight under your chin and squatting. I did 4 sets of 6 at 85 lbs.
Then we worked on bench press. I am crazy weak on this. It is totally out of proportion to the rest of my lifts. I was only doing 55 lbs.
The workout was:
- 8 thrusters – bar under your chin and squat then stand up while pushing the bar overhead. I did 45 lbs.
- 18 pull ups or ring rows. I did ring rows.
- 6 thrusters
- 14 ring rows
- 4 thrusters
- 10 ring rows
This was a quick one. I did it in 3:40.
Tuesday
We had a long workout today so we didn’t do any strength work. The workout was 5 rounds of:
- 20 pull ups or ring rows – I did ring rows
- 30 push ups
- 40 sit ups
- 50 squats
- 3 minute rest
That was rough. I was getting lightheaded on the ring rows for some reason. Then I got a headache. The sit ups rubbed by lower back. That is going to be sore! I did the whole thing though in about 41 minutes including the rests.
Yikes, just thinking of doing 50 squats makes me sore lol.
I laughed at the notion of no “strength work” and then a workout that consists of squats, push-ups, and all the other things that I call “strength training” when I workout!
I think I got a headache when I read “50 squats.” O_o
