Fairly happy with my time. Really need to work on my snatch as 105# shouldn't feel that heavy. My legs are still sore as heck from two days ago. Hoping today's workout gets them feeling better...

I agree. This is for old doods running on their last 1/4-1/3 tank of gas and trying to get all the mileage they can out of it.

Wish I had that same foresight when I drew goat. It worked out okay, but it would have been less painful had I started working out hard[er] earlier. I didn't realize how disadvantaged I was going to be wanting to hunt sheep in Colorado as a non-resident - my odds (and cost!) went from lousy to terrible.

I hate hearing Smokepoles's voice when I workout - gives me the creeps, mainly.

Oh, and I ran 4.7 miles in 41 minutes and change on a gently rolling trail this morning. Hoping to lift legs later.

30 minutes spinner
30 minutes concept2

I rode my bicycle up to the top of Red Rocks last September...after I rode my bicycle from Parker to Morrison. Then I rode back to Parker.

Good to hear from you buddy. Hoping luck is on your side in the draw.

Not a big bike rider but that sounds like a brutal workout. Best conditioned guy I ever hunted with was an avid long distance bike rider. I probably need to start doing that too.

Well you live in a fantastic place for it. Denver's multi-use trail system is an incredible resource for cyclists...over 850 miles of it. I've also ridden from Parker to Golden, then back to Parker. I've ridden all over the place up there. I love it...!

That wasn't subconscious, I was runnin' right behind you.

And speakin' of that, jeez, next time could you wear something other than those pink short-shorts?

Thanks much - you too my friend! Let me how you fare.

Warmup:
Shoulder stretches

Skill:
Muscleup progressions

Workout:
For time
30 muscle ups

or

30 rounds of
3 pullups
3 dips

26:45

Since I am not able to do A muscle up I opted for the 'or' workout. Used bands for the pullups and did holds/negatives on the dips. Both on rings. My strength to weight ratio sucks...

You're one to talk, those yoga pants were a bit snug on you....

I bet the real gym rats talk about your two workouts all the time�..

Annnywaaay:

Chest and back circuit and it was a good one.
Farmers carry: 110 pounds: 4x40 yards
Spinner intervals: 44minutes
Rubber band hip stretching

Did cardio today, burned 800 calories if you can believe the machines. Which is a good thing because those pork carnitas and Negra Modelos sure were good.

Yoga pants, pshaw........

Ran Red Rocks again yesterday. Then bought tamales and drank Millers. Seeing some improvement on the stairs. Red Rocks is way better at 6 am or 6 pm on weekdays. Ton of people there yesterday.

Good sunrises over there, or so I hear......

180 reps of mostly eccentric contractions (full body weight) in under a half-hour, and you say you've still got a lot of weight to loose. Your box's instructor has a questionable knowledge level for how to scale workouts. If you don't wind up with a case of rhabdomyolysis it won't be for lack of trying. I've seen it and it ain't pretty
