Night Workout....Bodyweight style

Tried a new "body wight" routine last night....since it's still in the upper 90's at night.  Did the following workout for time.

100 Jumping Jacks
90 Body Weight Squats
80 Seconds of Planks
70 Mountain Climbers
60 Bridges (Lying Hip Lifts)
50 Crunches
40 Push-ups
30 Dips
20 Lunges
10 Burpees

Total Time.......16:14.

Going to try to do this every night and post my time......

No workout this AM.

Back in the saddle

...you see what I did there?  Saddle?  Horse?  Meh......it was funny when I typed it.


Did lots of heavy lifting again this weekend at the BIL's house.  Installed flooring in his attic (which was around 198 degrees because it was 100 outside.  Lots of water weight loss....which I rehydrated with Bud Light later that night.

This morning did a quick 2 miles.  It's still flipping 85 degrees and 50% humidity in the mornings (which I know will be the temps in Houston in May.

Starting to build my base more....and adding in bodyweight exercises at night.  Going to be sore but going to have to push through.

Ever got "horse foot"?

Can't say I did much of anything.  Got lazy, got lazy....and got a little more lazy.

Started off this week pretty well.  Yesterday I did a 3 mile run.  Realized that my watch never started so I'm not sure of the time (it's my same 3 mile route, so I'm sure of the distance).  Not concerned now with time, as mentioned, but more mileage than anything.

Also....yesterday, I took J to riding lessons.  I never wear flippy-floppys there but decided to anyway.  Guess what stepped on my foot?  Not J....Not a dog....yup....a 1200lb horse.  Luckily, it wasn't hard, nothings broken, and there is just a contusion and some cuts on my foot.  Ahhh.....good times.  I can move my foot and toes without any pain and the only pain is from the small swelling.  Spent the rest of the day yesterday with ice on my foot.

This morning I did about 7 miles on the bike (damn snooze button).  Felt good.  Just need to get up earlier so I can put more time on the bike.

MAKE IT HAPPEN!

I haven't done.....

....jack squat since Friday.

I helped the BIL and SIL move into their new house this weekend.  I told of lifting, pushing, pulling, bending, stooping, and in the lovely Texas heat.  I'm still sore in the upperbody, but....on a positive....my legs aren't too sore and while doing the work, my endurance never faded (just my body).

So....tomorrow it starts back.  Tomorrow, baby.....too-mar-row.

Weekend off....

Rode around 40 minutes this morning and right at 8 miles.  Not really focused on the mileage (or minutes per mile).  Felt good to attack some hills, which I lothe, but I know that it'll make me a stronger rider.

I am "throwing" a party tonight for the family in honor of the opening ceremony of the Olympics.  Team USA shirts, appitizers, some of my old race medals.....should be a good time.  Then, we are heading down to Georgetown, TX to help my BIL and SIL move into their new house.  Won't be doing any running or biking (but lots of lifting!).

Weekly totals

Swim - 0m (decided to focus on the R/B)
Run: 8.5 miles
Bike: 12 miles

(not bad totals considering I'm skipping 2 days)

Last Night and Skipping

Decided on logging 2.5 miles last night....instead of doing all 4 or skipping it all together.  Also watched a a documentry on Fred Ludow (who started the NYC Marathon).  First entry fee was $1.

Skipped the swim this morning....in fact, going to take it off the schedule until after the first of the year.  It's my fall-back workout whenever I don't feel like biking or running.  I need as much road time and saddle time as I can get.

Tomorrow is hill repeats on the bike.  Going to do the loop in the 'hood.  Slightly boring but great workout.

Wednesday Run

Ran 3.5 this morning in 37 minutes.  2 breaks around miles 1 and 2 at a playground to do pull-ups (if you can call that a break).

Got my first Brooks survey for the 13's in to fill out, too.

Have a jog scheduled tonight.....3 miles.  Finally have our house back from the in-laws staying, so I may cozy up with some Netflix and the Rangers game.
