Bonus Workout Today

I got in a Strength Workout today in addition to my recovery run this morning. I’m purposefully avoiding heavy lower-body training with just 3 weeks left until my race. Instead, I’ve favored continuing my progressive “core” routine along with some Kettlebell lifts.

5 sets R/L 62 lb KB Cleans x 5 reps each; 15 sec recoveries

Ab Wheel Rollouts 21, 15, 9; 30 sec recoveries

2RM Pull-ups (35 lbs) x 6 sets; 1 minute recoveries

Turkish Get-ups (to pillar position) 35lbs x 3 reps x 2 sets R/L; 30 sec recoveries (So much for positive thinking…my left shoulder was limiting; had to cut-off my training at 2 sets here due to discomfort; I feel as if practicing the movement is helping me become more efficient and thus, I will continue to work around the pain)

Lost in Training

Got in my workout while watching Lost tonight.

5 Sets of 5 with 20lb X-Vest

Pull-ups + Ab Wheel Rollouts (progressively increased recovery by 30 seconds each set)

Single Leg Straight Leg Deadlift 3 x 7 reps with 45 lbs.
