Workout Recap - Week of November 29, 2020
Trying to get back into something approaching a normal routine for this week. Also, the blog engine I was using has been changed, so things might look a bit weird while I try to figure out how to work with this new one. Your patience is appreciated.
Sunday
Type: Pass/Fail
Burpees - 1 set of 50 (pass)
Bonus: 6 close pull ups
Working against a timer was unlikely to do anything to help my mental state, so I just didn't. I'll get back to doing that at some point, but I need to get back to a good frame of mind first.
Tuesday
Type: Pass/Fail
Close Pull Ups - 1 set of 10 (pass)
Diamond Push Ups - 1 set of 20 (pass)
Hanging Straight Leg Raises - 1 set of 10 (pass)
Bonus: 15 prisoner squats
I was ignoring my hip flexors last week, so this was an attempt to start correcting that. The end results felt fairly good, which was more heartening than it ought to have been.
Thursday
Type: Pass/Fail
Pistol Squats - 1 set of 9, each side (pass)
Shoulder-width Handstand Push Ups - 1 set of 14 (pass)
Closing Bridges - 1 set of 5 (pass)
Bonus: 7 close pull ups
Taking things up a step by getting back to doing pistol squats. It was a shakier performance this time, but at least I did manage to push through it.
Saturday
Type: Pass/Fail
Close Pull Ups - 1 set of 10 (pass)
Low Reverse Lunges - 1 set of 13, each side (pass)
Diamond Push Ups - 1 set of 22 (pass)
Bonus: none
After not feeling great with how the pistol squats went in my last workout, I decided to do a little bit of remedial semi-unilateral leg work here. It went much better this time. Hopefully that's a sign of things to come.
