An hour of stretching and PT at the Shed 'o Pain, including 3 TGUs on each side at 15# and 20#. Very encouraging

@Cliff, d*mn that sounds like it hurt. My training partner Tim dropped a 15# KB on his big toe last sunday so I've recently seen that color you mentioned.

Sunday June 28th, 2015

We got 3.4 inches of rain at the farm in the last 48 hours.

I walked one lap around the farm in 27 minutes wearing muck boots.

Note to self: do not wash down triple strength fish oil capsules with Diet Coke. This is a lesson I shouldn't have to keep learning...

the only thing that goes with diet coke is dark rum and a lime slice :evilsmile

Doctor's appointment, PT, walked 1 mile very slowly.

Slowly feeling better, but still far from 50%.

End of quarter accounting = 10 hours in my office chair

PT

Went to the golf course and chipped and putted for 20 minutes, which can be done while standing still.

It felt nice to do something other than work

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

@Cliff - Sorry about the toe. Glad it wasn't worse...

6/30
WU: Row 1 km; shoulder rehab work
Workout:
Deadlifts 65, 85, 105, 115 X15

Assisted pull-ups (2 bands) 10X3
Pushups 6, 8, 10

It was a very good day with the transition from lat pull-downs to assisted pull-ups and from knee pushups to real pushups. :kicking0:
Also using heavier weights/ increased reps on the RC rehab exercises so I am making progress there too. :)
