Easy day

/

Yesterday was pretty tough with the Overhead squats and Nancy in the morning then lifting with Hayden and Brice in the afternoon.  The session was pretty good with work on cleans off the blocks, jump back squat to full squats, clean pulls and snatches off blocks.

I felt it this morning a little, not with soreness, but just being tired. 

It was raining this morning so I rescheduled the sandbag workout I had for today and put in a simple but effective deck of cards.

Original Deck of cards:

Spades=Burpees

Clubs=Pushups

Hearts= Situps

Diamonds=Squats

Joker 1= 1 minute Plank

Joker 2= 30 Vups

 

We followed this with a nice Yoga session concentrating on our hips. 

 

Another day with the RRLanta in the Florida Keys

A text from Chip Lusk came through last night asking if I could work out again this morning.  What a pleasant surprise!

It is so much better and easier to workout with friends rather than to try to go alone.  I would have worked out this morning without Chip, however, getting together with Chip and his Uncle made the start to my day MUCH better.

Since we are still in the heart of a Tropical depression, we decided on a Deck of Cards, one of the best travel workouts.

Chip came up with this one:

Heart=burpees

diamonds=pushups

clubs=v ups

spades=squats

joker=elevated pushups

We then went through a Gratitude Meditation exercise afterward for about 12 minutes and finished the morning off with a nice breakfast and coffee.
