Daily Reset

Well, tonight was chaotic; from jumping cars to driving folks around to they don't have to wait at bus stops in freezing weather, I have been busy today.

Come Alive

Was planning on resuming the programs after the disruptive weekend but ended up taxiing people to and from the ER. ... they're fine, more or less, mostly need some anti-biotics and bed rest.

Debating what I want to do starting Monday, PPL or Recomp.
Also debating adding-on Muscle Up Prep.
Or maybe Runner, or retrying Runner Prime when it warms up a bit.

I'm thinking of doing recomp once I've finished my first set of programs/challenges. It looks like it's a great all-around package. Hope you find something that works perfectly for you.

Remembered next weekend is the Daytona 500, so I'll be busy; so, I think PPL Plan wins.

Abs had to be Planks and Unbound had to be shoulders toady.
Hands are almost numb.
Also forgot to adjust my bench so it wasn't flat for PPL today, I think I slight angle up would help with my lower back being sore after exercise 4 & 5.

Getting the 30 seconds on the hollow holds was a tough push, but overall, that went better than I expected

That was a lot of pull today; luckily, I'm good at that.
I was thinking my weekend would be complicated but looks like my Thursday through Sunday will be complicated.
Still, I think I can do something to keep the streak alive, although I might have to do leg day without weights this week to keep ppl going.

Art of Abs done, but poorly I'd say.
I really want a workout that hits all four parts of the ab group, but most seem to only hit two, and the ones that do hit all of it are quite rough.
Maybe I should check for micro-workouts hat hit parts and just do a few different ones in one go.

 

[Set Monje]

• Streak: 357
• PPL: Core & Balance + EC
• 4-Minute Abs: 06/30

Knew I didn't want to delay four minutes of planks to push day on Monday, so snuck it in at work along with legs day.
Didn't have any weights to use so had to so something light and classroom friendly and ore & Balance is listed as a strength workout, so it fit the bill nicely.

Fun but tiring weekend, one of the drivers I root for was leading the Daytona 500 on the last lap.
But leading the last lap at Daytona is pretty much a 100% chance of being wreaked, so they finished 19th.

Also learned to play Lorcana today.
Also, might have to swap out the Renegade Rows with Knelling Rows, feel like I'm making too much noise to be a good upstairs neighbor when lowering the dumbbells.
Also only used 10lb dumbbells for the Muscle Up Prep as opposed to the 20lb dumbbells I'm using for Ironheart; still EC but not overdoing it at the moment.

Think I need to be nicer on my hands, I think they're more blistered than calloused, so I should probably invest in some gloves ... and a hat for when I run
