Woke up with my back barking pretty loud and was actually wondering how in the world I was going to get through a workout today. Once I popped a couple of Ibuprofen and stretched for about 10 minutes I was good to go. This is how I know that I am 44 years old because I have to go through this cursed routine every morning before I workout!!
A. Prowler sled pushes x 30 seconds x 5 sets @ 85 lbs, rest 6 minutes.
Results: These started off easy and got very tough and miserable! My first 2 rounds were a 60M round trip which I did in about :22-:25. Since I was supposed to go for the full :30 I needed to adjust my route. That extra 8 seconds made a big, big difference and I had to dig to keep my legs churning for the full :30. Felt a little queasy toward the end which was unexpected. A lot of people tell stories of puking after Prowler pushed but I have never had that experience!!
B. 5 sets of the following
5 hang squat cleans @ 135 lbs
12 pull ups
7 Burpees
Results: I feel like I did pretty well on this. Each round was about :39 give or take a second.
This was a tough week of training but overall a successful one. Looking forward to a rest day tomorrow where I plan on doing a very light "recovery run" and a little bit of mobility stuff. Gotta love Sunday mornings!
