Screaming towards 50

-

Standards. Mine can be - at least in my imagimation - too high. This is not news to me. I also am aware that I have a tendency to have an all-or-none attitude about my standards. I have plenty of anecdotal evidence to support this.

Night before last, I didn't get much rest. As I went through the day I was aware that doing a workout was probably going to be a futile endeavor. So I played the "nearly 50" card. I feel good about this choice. No workout. By 6 PM last night I was waking up from a little nap to a phone call and a dinner invite. I went. I ate. I cheated. I came home and didn't do my flylady stuff. I slept.

Takeaways...

I should have gotten better sleep night before last. I shouldn't have worked out. I could have not cheated on my diet but it's cool. Part of the flylady mantra is not to be perfect.

So I win. Today I do yesterday's WOD. I got up and did my morning flylady routine. I am making over a weeks worth of steelcut oats. I also am making a grocery list. I will cook a few things to have for the week and put them in the fridge or freezer.

This is a good chance to practice.

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!
