Rarr!

Despite my asthma making my training session this morning slooooow as McDonald's counter staff nursing a hangover, I feel rather bad ass.

Here's what I did today.

• biked 5 km
  
• climbed 20' rope three times
  
• ran a mile
  
• did 100 m of walking lunges with a 10-lb medicine ball overhead
  
• did about 50 m of human wheelbarrowing
  
• did 50 wall balls
  
• did about 500 m of medicine ball relay tossing
  
• biked 5 km
  
• biked about 15 km
  
• did about two hours of parkour training which included:
  
  
  • vaulting fences
    
  • forward rolls
    
  • crawling backwards up a flight of concrete stairs
    
  • Spiderman edge-walking window sills and around support beams the length of a building without falling off
    
  • pistol squats
    
  • clutch flags
    
  • V-ups
    
  • pull-ups
    
  • Some failed attempts at kip-ups (I'll get them yet!)
    
  • Other stuff I can't remember
  
  
• Biked 5 km
  

Go me!

And just to mix shit up, tomorrow I do a floorwork/lap dance workshop. Haha!

JFC, wall balls. I don't mind (I even kind of like) thrusters, but god, I hate wall balls. I think it's that plyometric element. My body doesn't like those.

BTW, you felt badass because you are badass.

Wall balls have been rough for me for a long time, but I finally no longer suck at them. Still, doing more than 10 at a stretch is tricky for me. Doing 200 in one day ALWAYS sucks.

I'm really feeling my yesterday, right now. I suspect it's mostly from the parkour, as my quads don't normally feel DOMS like this after CF. Must be from the backward crawling up the stairs. I was afraid I'd faceplant onto concrete, but I didn't. First couple of climbs, I kept having to rest on my right hip, but on the third climb, I had enough coordination to avoid that.

Oh, and I also discovered I can do one-handed bridge push-ups. I'd never tried them before like that. Funny how bridge push-ups are so much easier for me than regular push-ups.

Good times!
