Great couple last workout days! Man it's been almost a week I think since my last posting. Been busy but have worked out 3 days so far this week.

Sunday off.

Monday - Minimum Crossfit warmup, Burpees, Jump rope, Sit ups, and Squat clean jerk. Did the best I could on each exercise not paying attention to how much time or weight - just did what I felt I could do...was kinda dragging but I pushed myself good.

Tuesday off.

Wednesday - Was in Sacramento for training planned my training this day because Jen and the kids are their visiting the Grandparents. I created an animal with Jen...I wanted to go see a movie and she wanted to work out! I didn't want to go without her so I worked out. Glad I did. Too much smoke from the fires to go outside. Didn't have a pull up bar so did without. Did 100 push ups, 100 sit ups, and 100 squats. Was a great workout. Jonah did it too. He beat me that little sucker...I didn't move on to sit ups until I completed my 100 push ups though and I think he had an edge because he mixed them up 40, 40, 40 20, 20, 20, etc something like...still hats off.

Today - Thursday- Minimum Crossfit warmup, 100 pull ups. Never attempted something like this before. I was seriously feeling like I was good after 20 but I was determined to do them little by little if I had to. Keep in mind I did 30 during minimum crossfit warmup so at 20 I was technically at 50 follow? I did them about 3 at a time most of the workout but I didn't take long breaks, didn't drink water, etc. I use 4 different grips. Overhand, underhand, and both alternating grips. It was a real psychological accomplishment for me and actually wasn't too physically difficult. I wasn't failing by the time I was done. I've got some pretty good callouses but at about 70 I noticed a pretty good size blister coming in on my left ring finger under my callous so I put on some rubber coated gardening gloves. So total pull ups today's workout...130!
