After last week's Push Press workout - my shoulders and elbows were close to injury. I had to suck it up and admit also that my form wasn't right. Knowing that I was sacrificing form for supposed progress, I decided to reduce the weight this time and see how it went. I really concentrated on getting my head forward under the bar and on getting my shoulders close to my ears. I think this was a wise move.

My wife started her exercise regimen back up. My oldest daughter has workout clothes - she joins me. I am very happy about these things.

YAY for family workouts! Next week I get to start Daddy/Daughter Gymnastics class at the park district. I cannot wait to see little Evie rolling all over the place. It'll be a BLAST! Keep it up! You are almost there! We'll have to think of a more manly word for the "Buttercup" Stage.

I kinda like the idea of being a buttercup - especially when I know how brutal a lesser workout would be to most scoffers! Kinda like being manly enough to wear pink. HAHA!

Almost Finished Resting

15:00 minutes on the rower. Rolled it outside in the sun. 85 degrees. Felt great. Logged 101 calories - my rower doesn't count distance :( I am starting to feel refreshed and ready to jump back into the WODs. I almost did yesterday's - but made myself wait. I'll get in after the next rest day. Oh, I still feel the swim!

AMRAP in 10 minutes 100m sprint (25m out n back x2) 10 situps 10 supermans 5 rds + 50m Did this in the school basket ball/ volleyball gym. I was able to be barefoot on the wooden court. Very comfy. I had a little twinge in my back from carrying this front-loaded fat vest but it's way better than it has been.

AMRAP in 10:00 5 DL @ 215lbs 5 Burpees 5 Squat Cleans @ 105lbs 5 Burpees Total - 4 rounds huffing and puffing. Thanks to Charles for giving me this one on FaceBook. His suggested weights were 300 on the DLs and 185 on the cleans. I knew better than to try that! HA! Warmed up with OHS and pigeons. The OHS stuff with the bar and not PVC - time to be a big boy!
