Workout Recap - Week of September 27, 2020
Leaning further into the half-challenges seemed to make a big difference in my mental state. I'm pretty jazzed about the results I got, too. A solid week all around.
Sunday
Type: As Fast As Possible
5 sets of:
5 Pull Ups
5 Burpees
Time = 3:00
Bonus: 10 bridges
While there are the occasional burpees where I feel my hips get out of position during the push up phase, I think I was at least close to having clean form for the vast majority of them. That seems to bode well, not just for future burpees but for my posture in general.
Tuesday
Type: As Fast As Possible
50 Burpees
Time = 4:15
Bonus: 10 bridges
Alright, that's a pretty nice completion time! I didn't go back to check how I'd done on this workout in the past, but I think it's a competitive result.
Wednesday
Type: Pass/Fail
Pull Ups - 2 sets of 10 (pass)
Handstand Push Ups - 2 sets of 15 (pass)
Hanging Bent Leg Raises - 2 sets of 12 (pass)
Bonus: none
Ramping things up gradually on this front. Perhaps I'm going slower with it than I absolutely have to, but I'm in no rush.
Friday
Type: As Fast As Possible
5 sets of:
5 Pull Ups
5 Bridges
Time = 2:15
Bonus: none
Honestly, I'd been thinking that the last time I got on this workout might've been a fluke, so it's good to see that that wasn't the case. Excellent!
Saturday
Type: As Fast As Possible
5 sets of:
5 Pull Ups
5 Burpees
5 Bridges
Time = 4:30
Bonus: 5 pull ups, 5 burpees, 5 bridges
Taking things a step further to close out the week, and I like what I ended up with. Scaled up to my past version of this routine, this time would put me on pace to finish slightly ahead of my personal record, which sounds like a good place to be. I think I'll still hold back on going all the way back just yet, but I'm not dreading seeing how much I've regressed anymore.
