Quotidian Workout September 5, 2009

September 5, 2009

The last two days haven't allowed for workouts, so this morning I tried to "get the lead out."

Hang Cleans X 5 +
Thrusters X 5 +
Sumo Deadlift Hi-Pulls X 5
All at 115#
7 Rounds or failure
1000M row
20 minutes of aerobic exercise
500M row
FINIS

Made it through 4 rounds @ 115#

1000M = 3:38
20 minutes cycling, touch under 6 miles
500M = 1:48

if you can hit 7 rounds, you need to go up a significant increment (15#+). The body acclimates to static loads very quickly. Continually increasing weight, even by minute increments, battles the body's naturally complacency/resilience.

“Continuous” refers to actions which are uninterrupted: “My upstairs neighbor played his stereo continuously from 6:00 PM to 3:30 AM.” Continual actions, however, need not be uninterrupted, only repeated: “My father continually urges me to get a job.”
