This morning was my scheduled strength workout. The running plus walking yesterday left my back a little stiff, so I decided to take the time to enjoy my Sunday workout. It went like this:
Clean up and Sweep Garage Receive Groceries, drink free Energy Drink Front Squats: 3 x 45, 65, 85, 95, 105, 115; 1 x 125, 135 18" DO Axle Deadlifts: 3 x 73, 123, 143, 163, 183; 1x 193, 203; Miss x 213 Chins (alternate sets with presses): 1, 1, 1, 1, 3 Bottoms Up Kettlebell Press: 3/3 x 12k, 16k, 20k, 20k, 20k Rack Walk with 20k Kettlebells: 75ft Farmers Walk with 20k Kettlebells: 75ft Windmills: 3/3 x 10k, 12k, 16k PR
The whole workout went very well. I didn't push anything and just focused on getting work in. It took time for the front squats to loosen my hips up, but I actually got some squats in. I am annoyed at missing the final axle lockout, but my hands were tired from the other work. 3 reps on the chins surprised me.
Another interesting outcome of this workout is that I did most of it barefoot, due to concerns over the old shoes I was wearing. Sure enough, when I put them back on to do the weighted walks, I could feel my left foot immediately start rolling to the outside. I did the walks slowly, but barefoot instead. The old shoes have to be retired.
The windmills actually felt very strong on my left shoulder. I could have done more weight. Righty I was at my limit, so I decided to call it a day.
