Quick arm, chest and leg circuit during work lunch break. 2x20 minute on the rower. One before and one after work.

The were passing out free boxes of GS Trefoil cookies at work. Didn't eat to clean today to say the least.

Trefoils? Pshaw, Samoans are where it's at. And what you'll resemble after a few boxes........

3.5 mile hike. Slow and easy with some kids. Shoulder PT x2 today.

My GS cookie addiction is Trifoils and Thin Mints. I can eat a whole box in one sitting and have done so more than once.

Cardio (am): 4 miles at a relatively light pace-30 minutes
2 miles weighted incline (10-15%)

Chest/Arms (evening): moderate weight/high rep work

Great day, arms are junk.......

This was a good one. Hands and shoulders are shot! I'm guessing my legs will be plenty sore tomorrow...

1/2 hour on the bike trainer and some ab work this morning.

I went on a crash diet this weekend, lost two pounds. But I wouldn't recommend it--food poisoning. Got in plenty of "squats" on Saturday. By yesterday afternoon I was feeling good enough to take the dog on his run. He spent a lot of time looking back over his shoulder as if to say "would you please hurry up." By this morning I was feeling back to normal so went to the gym, got halfway through the lower body/core workout and ran out of gas, felt like a limp dish rag. Better than nothing though.

Not fun at all, BTDT. I'm surprised you're even moving yet.

30minute treadmill jog and 30minute rower.


Gave up bread for two weeks and dropped 3 pounds with no other diet change.

Addition: Forgot, dropped the PB also. I'm usually good for a jar a week.

5.8 mile fairly strenuous hike in the mountains, with light (18lb) pack.

Skill:
Pullup (strict and kipping)

Workout:
�Nicole�
■Run 400 meters
■Max rep Pull-ups

As many rounds as possible in 20 minutes.:

I completed 7 rounds (42 pullups). I can't do them, so I use bands for assistance. Still aways away from doing them, but getting closer.

I'm surprised that a man of your caliber and erudition hasn't already switched to almond butter......

Have to admit it is good on a big stack of pancakes.
With honey.

I like mine on a toasted English muffin, with butter. Grass-fed, of course.

I would expect nothing less.

I'm getting used to my shoulders being sore on sunday evenings due to the morning swim. I think it is the backstroke that is doing the damage. But I'm enjoying it so I keep at it.

Another good week:

3 runs for 11 miles (1 threshold, 1 hills, 1 stamina)
2 elliptical workouts and 1 swim.

Diet was pretty clean but I lost count of clean days somewhere along the line.

Post reps to comments.

120 Reps. Turned into an AMRAP for me after the first minute as I couldn't go fast enough to get a break. I was happy with my strict presses though. If I start working them a bit more, I think I can hit my goal this summer.

PS- I still really hate burpees...

half hour on the bike trainer and some ab work this morning.

strength training tonight. Hopefully I have enough for 2x circuits like I did Monday. That was a first for me this year.

Edit: Did two circuits last night. Good workout, not sore today.
