Monday brought another great weather day for training. No rain, wind, cold! I know that will likely be short lived but it was nice to go two workouts in a row with some nice weather.
As my achilles was a bit sore we modified the warm up to do a little less movement, no running, but still the core warm up. After our warm up we began our circuit; light weights and speed. One great thing, since I am not trying to be a body builder, is that I can workout at a fast pace and get my cardio in while completing a workout. Our circuit included push ups, one leg (elevated) push ups, curls, tris, military presses, bench press (the last 4 with the rubber band), squats with the heavy bar held over head, medicine ball throws again ts and wall, and lastly wall sits which included holding the medicine ball and throwing it back and forth with Anthony (yes while still wall sitting).
We did 4 circuits of this routine and then finished the day with core work. While laying on my back holding the heavy bar in a bench press position, I'd lift and lower my legs. Thereafter, I'd lay flat while still holding the heavy bar in the same position I'd do sit ups. We did two sets of each.
A great workout, I love the pace...fast pace and hard work.
We're entering the home stretch, 4 more weeks and I feel great! Feel like an athlete again!
Until next time.
