Today was an excellent test of my perseverance and motivation. That shit was so cold out there today for me. My body is absolutely not ready for that yet. I’m not sure what it was, and it wasn’t even snowing but that it was cold! That was a pretty intense battle going on in my head for about two hours before the I got out of work. It was actually kind of amusing. I’m never really sure how I can convince myself once I get on that negative train for so long!
Alas, I’ve come out ahead. Lost a few seconds on the Back Lever as well as the First round of the L-Sit’s. I also improved on a few things, so it all balances out. I was a bit disappointed in my Archer Pullups a bit today, but I’ll get it back. I need to setup my pullup station so that I can just workout in my apt again. I dont want to, but maybe once my body has acclimated to the cold I’ll go back out to the park.

Posting this a day late. It was freezing yesterday though! Cold for working out at least, and its only going to be getting colder too. Some numbers went down, some numbers went up. Nothing out of the ordinary. I was pleased with my progress on the Advanced Tuck Front Lever though. They’re coming along nicely. I think the Back versions are much easier though … well as easy as any lever can be 😉

Well hot damn hot damn, back to the grind. I forgot how important motivation is in all this working out business. Very much enjoyed the workout today, although the entire time walking to the park my mind kept having this internal struggle. Do you remember how easy not putting in the work is? That was an excellent test for myself, the delaod week I’m talking about.
Not only did I feel stronger, although my numbers dropped, my body was ready to perform. Everything just felt good. I honestly even enjoyed doing the Burpees during my warmup today! Deload weeks are the best, I can’t believe I forgot to program that in my routine. Ah well, it’s finally happened, and my body has more than recovered. Time to put the heat on, and get some goals met!
Oh I forgot to mention how much I missed the endorphin surge you get after a solid steady strength training session. The weather was amazing, there was this cute little asian kiddo and her family playing and laughing a lot. It was really a super stress relieving, amazing workout today.
I’m glad to be back.

Got my order a bit messed up out there in the battle field. I completely forgot about the Planche Pushups! I know, I couldnt believe it either, as thats my favorite one, and the one goal I want the most … geesh. Glad I log all this, or I think I would’ve forgotten about them today! My Handstands were kind of lacking today. I’m betting on it being how windy it was, and pretty chilly. My hands were pretty cold there in the beginning. It’s what I get though for wearing a sleeveless tee.
I’m considering incorporating some Turkish Get Up’s in as part of my routine, have any of you ever experienced them? I think the 70lbs in the sandbag will do the trick with getting me working out with those.
I just got this email with an invite to compete in this 1st annual Unconventional Training competition. It’s got some really awesome bits as far as the events are ( That’s what got me interested in the Turkish Get Ups ). It’s out in Cali, and its in two months … Some of the stuff I’ve never done before as they incorporate kettlebell’s and I don’t have one!
Let’s see, what else happened today. I do miss when I used to have my laptop right there with me so I could type out my thoughts in real time. I know I felt the Back Levers are getting better each time. My Left elbow joint was stressing a bit once I jumped back into my routines, but it’s gotten used to it again. I eased it in nicely though I think as I didnt want to injure myself.
Seeing those events for the competition gave me some good ideas as to what I could incorporate in my workouts. Not only for the variety, but some of the workouts were practical. I’m all about that! The one that sticks out ( Other than the Turkish Get Ups ) is pulling 120 lbs 50 Feet. It just made me think of helping my dad when I was younger, dragging deer out of the woods. Good times 🙂
HERE‘s a link to the challenge! Let me know what you guys think
