Thursday Ruck at Cloud Park

“There is no such thing as over-training. There is only under-recovery.” Bobby Maximus

AO: Higgins

Date: 11/29/2018
Time: 0530
Conditions: A bit windy, 26 degrees

The Thang:

1 Mile Ruck, 10#
Toes to the Bar
Bear Walk
Scorpion/Step Through/Back Bridge
Tabata Jump Rope

We’re on the back side of Thanksgiving. I literally picked up 5 pounds between Wednesday and Saturday last week. Three of them are gone. In another week I’ll be back to Pre-Thanksgiving weight.

Where will you be in another week? After the first of the year? Holding your own? Or being owned by the calories calling?

You can always find a goooooooooooood reason to not work out. But it’s like I read on a plaque about forty years ago: “When you wear your body out (by not taking care of it), where will you live?”

It’ll still be in your body. You’re going to hurt, so you might as well hurt in a healthy manner. Saturday at Delco Park (DeHavilland), 0730.

A walk in the park…..

I’ve read recently that walking backwards can help your memory (seriously, you can Google it!). So I thought I’d experiment with it, and yep, it works. I will never forget exactly where I tripped because I couldn’t see where I was going….

AO: Higgins
Date: 11-26-2018
Time: 0530
Conditions: Very windy and 27 degrees.
Q: Wilson

The Thang:

1 mile ruck with 10#
PVC shoulder workout
4# club bell
round the world

club mill

4 minute jump rope

OK, I was pulling your leg on that opening. I didn’t fall, but I did walk backwards some. It just seems like a natural direction for me.

Wilson

DATE – 11-24-18

A.O. – Dehavilland

Q – Tails

PAX – Wilson, Heater, Wrong Way, Zebra, Faucet, Bone-daddy,

PAX TOTAL – 7

  • Really great weather! Cool temp and humid. It had rained a lot the night before, so everything was wet. We started off with a jog around the lake. My plan was to take the pax to a shelter, so we would have a dry spot to be on our backs. As we headed that way I saw that Bone-daddy and Wrong Way we’re pulling in, late. So we stopped at the gazebo to do some dynamic stretches.
  • After this we went to the shelter.
  • 200 SSH IN CADENCE – 20 count sets, 5 sets with 10 seconds breaks.
  • 100 Squats (same format)
  • 20 push-ups, 50 shoulder touches (same format)
  • 30 second plank x 4
  • 30 second leg plank x 4
  • Jog back around the lake, stopping from time to time to do some shoulder stretches.
  • Stopped at the BMX track and considered running it. Decided against it, as we didn’t want to mess up the track while it was mud. Will try again when dry.

COT – Giving thanks.
