Week eight, Workout #24

Friday actually brought some really nice weather for a change. A change from the usual Friday rain, hail, wind, and cold. Sun and 70 degrees, pretty nice.

Today's workout was the 300. 300 reps!

We started with our usual warm up which again included running. My achillies seems to be improving. Still sore, yes, but not nearly as much which is great. After the remaining active warm up we got right to the 300.

The 300 was all about completing reps. The exercises we did were chin ups, dead lifts, push ups, military press, and sit ups; 50 of each with rest after the completion of one circuit. The additional item was carrying the 50lbs weights down the 100 yard field and back.

We'd start with pull ups which I did about 15 reps at a time, then right to the dead lifts for 25 reps, right to the push ups for 15 reps. Picked up the 2x25lbs dumbs and fast walked down the 100 yard field. At the other end I did military press for 15 reps, sit ups for 25 reps, picked the weights back up and fast walked and then rested for 1 minute. We started over until I had 50 reps of each activity.

Certainly a fun but exhausting workout.

Looking forward to Monday as it is another measurement day being 2 months in. That said I may have plateaued as I have not lost any weight this week but I do still have two days...so we'll see.

Until Monday.
