Re: Steve's "I'm not aging quietly" log
 

I've done that workout before (or one very similar) and if I remember correctly, it was brutal. I'd have to check back through my logs for the time, but I remember the runs really slowing me down. Good job Steve:highfive:

Re: Steve's "I'm not aging quietly" log
 

Thanks for the encouragement, Gordon! I want to try this one again soon - - and when DOMS isn't making my behind feel as stiff as a board. This was a great workout!

Yea... I'll slap you now.. Burpees are my LEAST FAVORITE thing of all time!! Ever since i did that stupid burpee challenge last year.... they suck no matter how you look at them.. GREAT JOB though!! :notworth:

Re: Steve's "I'm not aging quietly" log
 

Thanks, Marianne - - It is hard to believe that some @#^-)% exercise like burpees, which your PE coach [I][B]always[/B][/I] had you doing in high school, could suck so badly as an adult.

[I][B]090925 FRIDAY

[/B]Three rest days in a row -- work schedule and then not feeling well yesterday. Today........

Warm-up: [/B][/I][B]2500m Easy Row[/B][B]: [/B]Time = 10:32[B]Parallette Push-ups: 15 X 1

PVC X 5 - 10 reps
45# bar X 5
95# X 10
115# X 3 [/B](Form got ragged quickly - - too heavy to get under bar quickly - - lots more practice necessary.
[B]95# X 5

Row 500m: [/B]1:42.

Re: Steve's "I'm not aging quietly" log
 

Hey Steve:highfive:

After a longer-than-usual break between WODs, a form reset and quickie burner is always a highly productive day for me. The power clean work likely didn't tire you out too much for that 500m row, during which you were definitely moving.

Keep it up, and don't be afraid to pre-plan your week's programming ahead of time. I know it's not the randomness of CF main page programming, but you can still keep making some pretty solid progress.

Have a good weekend!

Thank you, Dave. Great suggestion on the planning. I really need to do that, and with my work venue becoming closer to home, I won't be traveling the extra two hours per work day....:-)
