Did lower body/abs yesterday. Going for a walk with a pack today, and then later probably some corrective core exercises at the gym.

Added in 10 quick up/downs on the steep bank right at the end. Felt pretty good!!

AMRAP in 20 mins:
Burpees X 15 reps
Run 400m
Max Rep Pushups

4 rounds. Indigestion + heartburn + burpees = all I could do to keep from puking.

Did upper body today with some corrective shoulder exercises thrown in.

Second week of the 5/3/1. Same as first week except the reps are 3's on the big lifts. Wore a belt for the first time in years on the squats and had forgotten how much easier it makes the lift....

Cleans...1 min rest between sets
Squat (low bar/powerlifting style)...1 min rest between sets
DB Lunges...in circuit
Cable Abs...in circuit
Shrugs...in circuit

Bench...1 min rest between sets
Weighted Dips...circuit one (1 min rest between rounds)
Pullups...circuit one
Bar rows...circuit two (no rest between rounds)
Shoulder rehab...circuit two
Neck...circuit two

Did an hour of cardio, followed by an extended session with a hard roller on my legs, especially the IT band.

Anybody come across a complex carb made by an outfit called Generation UCAN (or something like that)?

60 minutes on the trainer this morning. Plan for 3x rounds strength training tonight.

AMRAP in 40 mins:
Kettlebell Swings 1.5pood - 40 reps
Box Jumps - 40 reps
Toes to Bars - 40 reps.

360 total reps. I did step ups instead of jumps and hanging knee raises instead of T2Bs.

Lower body/core today. Gonna take a short trip and a few days off, always nice to come back after a short break.

15-12-9-6-3
95# Overhead Squat
Bar over Burpees

13:50

I am in admittedly the worst shape I have been in , in a few years, due to several factors. However, I recently knocked out some 20 + mile days in the mountains with pack weights of 30 -40 lbs so it is a start. My times were not very good , 10 hrs or more, but I did some push ups at the end of one day to make up for it

Here are a few photos

Nice!! I hope to do that next weekend. And catch some fish!! Looks like lots of snow still up there.

Great pics! What I wouldn't give to be close to country like that with out having to fly or drive for over a day...
