T-Shirt, Shorts and Kettlebells

Man, it is February 1st and 70F! After getting paged at 0550 this morning and spending the next four hours working on the problem I got outside about midday to train. It was beautiful! Sunny and warm. The weather, despite the hint of global warming, and exercise improved my mood considerably. I trained in shorts, a t-shirt and a pair of Vibram FiveFingers. If the concrete carport floor hadn't been so cool I probably would have trained shirtless and really barefoot to get maximum sun exposure.

Nice warm up. Hips not quite as stiff as Monday. Left not as painful as yesterday. It's been six days since I worked my abs directly so I got that in today. Total prep time 24:32.

Swings felt good. Back muscles were getting a bit fatigued by the 8th set but I was able to maintain good form and power. I was a little unstable in the first two sets of get ups with the 44lb kettlebell. Tightened form on last four sets. Good training session overall. Total kettlebell time 21:31.

Only got 6713 steps yesterday. Stuck in meetings more than half the day, plus since my hip hurt I didn't push to get my 9K once I left work.
