Just because I haven't logged in a few days doesn't mean I've been sitting on my duff!
After my workout on Saturday, we went to a friend's place to help pour concrete. Claus did the actual helping, using a wheelbarrow, which I was glad of. After that Stage 2B3 workout, I don't think I would have lasted long. I helped a tiny bit using the shovel.
Sunday, we went sailing and kicked around a soccer ball. Very fun, but exhausting. I did a lot of sprinting for the ball. I think you get more exercise when everybody isn't very great at aiming the ball!
Monday, I spent over 2.5 hours at the driving range for golf lessons. Tuesday, I was so sore from golf, I took it off. Then yesterday, I spent about 2 hours at the driving range for my last golf lesson. I can see how the woodchops could help my golf swing!
2A4 Weights:
Front squat/push press - 50# then 5@55#/5@50#
Step-up - 20# each hand then 25# each hand
Dumbbell 1-pt row - 30# each hand then 35# each hand, but my form suffered, didn't get the weights up quite as high
Static Lunge, rear foot elevated - 25# each hand then 30# each hand
Push up - I had to back off a bit to the #3 position on the Smith machine then a similar height on the power cage
Plank - 60 secs both, was counting the speck on the floor very intently for these today!!
Cable Horiz. Woodchop - 34.5# lifted (69# on the cable)
My heartrate got up to 172bpm and was often in the 160s. Wow.
Afterward, I stretched on the Precor stretch trainer. I probably don't get the best stretch from that, but it's mindless.

It is SO COOL that you are seeing how your training is benefitting your "real life"! It's one thing to be able to see improvement in the gym, but when that improvement translates to your everyday activities - you've got to feel pretty jazzed about that!
