[StarGazer]

Hoorah! A challenge! I was starting to get worried we'd hit 6 pages before it happened...

 

 

EDIT: Clearly we were VERY close to that threshold.

Hey now!!!

 

There were some rangers up in here too, darnit!!

 

That. Is a perfect gif for that sentence! *swoon*

 

 

 

Haha yeah, well I may have had a good teacher.   And that teacher may have just opened up a very dangerous door to a world of wonderful giffiness for me.

Hey now!!!

Assassins were here as well! You just didn't see us because we're sneaky like that.

 

 

Sorry, I should have said rebellion, I'm impressed with the rebellion.

[Devyn]

CHALLENGE FINALLY POSTED!!!!!

 

 

 

 

you can't expect me to just post this once

[starpuck]

I am gonna have such pleasant dreams tonight.   

[Everstorm]

Good goals.  Life goal in particular.

[Kishi]

Milk stout fan, huh? Dig. This.

 

 

Duck Rabbit milk stout. One of the best beers I've ever had in my life - and it's local. I dunno if it's ever gone as far as TX, but if you find it and you're on a cheat day... it's well-worth-it.

 

But yeah your goals. They look good. There's something solemn in it this time, and it sounds like whatever you do, you're going to be making a deep personal impact on yourself as well as whomever else. I imagine, you being a nurse, kindnesses from you would go further than most people's. So, you know, there's that.

 

So what are you waiting for? Shine on!

Oh, right. -Sorry, I thought you posted one and I was at work and couldn't see it.

 

 

awkwarrrrd.

[Cheechoe]

H'ok. Catching up.

 

WEDNESDAY:

 

Day off! WOOT.

 

Workout 1

 

Gym

 

4 Rounds of:

 

10 Hindu push-ups

30 sec mountain climbers

30 sec lateral jumping squats (for distance, not height)

30 sec standard plank hold

1 min rest

 

Then 4 rounds of:

 

10 inch worms with a push-up at full extension and a squat in between

25 DB deadlifts (20# Dbs)

25 modified dips

20 OHS w/ 22# body bar (snatch progression)

50 short crunches with 10# DB

 

"Heavy" Lifts

 

OHP

 

5X5@60

 

Back Squat

 

5X5@110

 

Deadlift

 

5X5@145

 

Stretched a lot.

 

 

Workout 2

 

I felt like I wanted some more cardio so I texted Iket721 to see if he wanted to meet at the park for a run.

 

Sucker.

 

We went 5 miles. In the rain. (His challenge is one mile/week) Woot.

 

 

Workout 3

 

TaeKwon-Do

 

Did some patterns and kicks. Not at all a very hard class. For the most part, I ended up teaching some lower ranks a lot of techniques on their patterns, so nothing really heavy. (Still got a bit of sweat in though

 

 - ate decent. probably need to drink more water though. :/

 

 

 

Thursday:

 

Only work a half shift today! (6 hours)

 

Gym

 

Run 5K - treadmill

 

First mile @ 7.0

Last 2 miles with foot work drills and a couple of sprints at 9.0

 

 

Not the best 5k time, but I was happy considering all the footwork drills for which I slow way down.

 

Then I decided to row 1K for time

 

 

Now this, was actually a pretty decent time for me. I have short legs.

 

Now that I have these pics, I need to beat the numbers! Yeeeeeeee. :/

 

 

Then 4 Rounds of:

 

20 inch worms with a squats in between

20 alternating toe taps in a standard plank

25 bent DB rows (20# DB, each arm)

10 full snatchs (I think? I need to video my form) w/ 22# body bar

20 OHS w/ 22# body bar

 

I probably shouldve done more strength here, but my shoulders/upperback was still stiff from yesterday.

 

 

Workout 2

 

Went to TKD Dojung for a TKD/Boxing workout

 

First, stretched and warmed my stiff upperback/shoulders up with a 1 min handstand hold. Geeez. Haven't done THAT in a while. Wobblehhhh.

 

10 X 1 min rounds of boxing w/ 1 min break

 

whew. The 1 min rounds were actually really easy after the 3 min rounds my coach was having me do. But I knew I would only get in like 3-4 rounds of that, so I opted for more of 1 min. Still sweatedededed gooooooood.

 

Ended with 100 sidekicks (50 each leg) not much for TKD, but Im counting it in my 3X/week

 

Ate primal today. Still not enough water

 

 

This post is getting boring. MOAR GIFS

 

[Brometheus]

H'ok. Catching up.

 

 

 

I defy your logic!
