Easing Back In
I'm feeling a bit better, so I had to do some training. I started with my Zscription. Ahhhhh!It's been awhile since I did snatches and swings, so I thought, "Why not?" It felt great to get my heart rate up.Snatches - 16 kg (35 lbs) - 50 left, 50 right-I did the RKC snatch test: 100 snatches with the 16 kg in 5 minutes. Still got it! (with time to spare)Swings - 24 kg (53 lbs.) - 10 min.-I did 20 reps every 30 seconds followed by 30 seconds of rest. That was a workout! It felt good to get back to the basics and just sweat.

I'm Alive!
I haven't done any training this week since Monday. Life has been really crazy, and I'm trying to kick this crud. I decided it was best to give my body a rest. Monday I'll start a new round of training. I'm really looking forward to it.

Really?
Am I really going to continue to be sick? Really? I thought I was done with this junk.I'm sick of being sick, and I haven't even been that sick. Last weekend I had a stuffed head, so I slept most of the weekend. This weekend I was weak, tired, and unable to eat. I just can't seem to completely get over this bug, nor do I get knock down, drag out sick either. I don't even get a fever. What gives?!My training is paying the price. I keep holding steady, but I'm not making any progress. Next week, my program is getting revamped. Until then, I'll do what I can and hope to kick this virus.Open Palm Plate TGUs - 35 lb. plate - 5 x 2 L, R

I'll Take It
Not bad. That's my assessment of today's training.Goblet Squat - 24 kg (53 lbs) - 5 x 10alternated withRing Pullup Negatives - 5 x 3Open Palm Plate Press - 35 lbs - 3 x 1, 2, 3 L, R-First time waiter pressing a 35 lb. plate. The right side was a challenge, but I made it. The left side was a struggle. I could get one rep, but then I had to help it up a bit for reps two and three. I did a slow negative, however, to build that side.The pullup negatives don't ever get easier. I'm convinced I don't have proper body alignment. One problem is that the space I have to train

Me Likey!
Today's training was fantabulous! I feel like a She-Woman. Roaaaarrrrr!!!Open Palm Plate TGU - 35 lbs. - 5 x 2 L, R-Solid.1 Arm 1 Leg Deadlifts - 24 kg (53 lbs) - 5 x 5 L, Ralternated withBent Press - 28 kg (62 lbs) - 5 x 2 L, R-My lats are still shaking. :)-I'm still sick, so putting up these numbers is astonishing. I can't wait to see what I do when I'm at 100%.I best be placing an order for a 32 kg kettlebell. I need more iron!
