Five Week Hiatus

I call it a hiatus in the title, but it was really just....laziness. I haven't worked out since 20130802. Finally got myself to workout today. It took me nearly all day to do it but I did. I kept telling myself, just go out there and do a little bit. Don't try to do the whole workout, don't try to do as many sets or reps and as much weight as you did back at the beginning of August. Just get out that and do a little bit.

Finally after watching my favorite NFL team, The Steelers, lose I got out there so I could watch my favorite tennis player, the beautiful, talented and tremendously athletic Serena Williams.

1. Two-legged Glute Activation Raises 1 x 20
2. Flying Dogs 1 x 15 per side, alternating
3. Kettlebell Swings
• Point A 5 x 17.5 lb. t-bar homemade kettlebell
• Point B 5 x 17.5 lb. t-bar homemade kettlebell
• Swings 5 x 17.5 lb. t-bar homemade kettlebell
• Swings 20, 20 x 27.5 lb t-bar homemade kettlebell
4. Turkish Get Ups
• Weak ( left ) Side x 5 x 10 lb. dumbbell
• Strong ( right ) Side x 5 x 10 lb. dumbbell
• Weak ( left ) Side x 5 x 10 lb. dumbbell
• Strong ( right ) Side x 5 x 10 lb. dumbbell
5. Myotatic Crunch 1x10
6. Cat Vomit Exercise 10 reps

As you can see, I lowered the weight on all sets of kettlebell swings by five pounds. I also limited myself to two work sets of swings of just 20 reps each. I used the same weight, ten pounds, on my Turkish Get Ups but stopped with four sets instead of my customary seven. I did my crunches without any weight. CVEs were normal. I completed the workout in 37.5 minutes.

Now I just need to get in a rhythm by working out again on Tuesday.
