Saturday

Sore in some weird places

Friday's Workout

Five circuits of:
220 yard run @ 7.5mph
Uneven pushups x 5/5 (one hand on med ball, alternating sides)
Woodchoppers x 5/5 @ 30/40/50/50/60#
- (double rope on machine, high pulley, on one knee)
V-ups x 10 (prone, push down with hands, raise legs & torso)

The exercises worked us in different ways and called on parts of our muscles we had not been using. Pecs, lats, and ribcage were all sore in places they have not been. Well worth the effort.



Monday

Walking and the plank.

Monday's Workout

Four Circuits of:
Triple Lunge x 5/5 (front, side back)
Plank x 45 seconds
Reverse Rows x 10 (chest-high squat bar)
Pullovers x 10 @ 25#
Farmer's Walk x 50 yards @ 50#/50#

The lunges always loosen me up, even as they hurt.
The Rows and Walks combined put our forearms under duress.

We managed to be plenty worn out at teh end.

These were a nice balance to the exercises from last week.
