Week 5

Today, I did the start of week 6, which is the second week in Phase 2 of Body of Fire
The workouts keep getting sets added on, so they are getting longer. I didn't time today's workout, but it was over an hour, for sure.

Today, I did everything by the book, except I did 8 reps rather than AMAP with an 8 rep goal. I just couldn't get my mind around AMAP today.  Here are the weights I used:
Bent over row - 80# BB
Push press - 25#ea
Front squat (KB goblet squat) - 16kg
Single leg plank - 30sec each side
Combo 3 - 15#ea

Yesterday, I did the last workout in week 5.  I subbed high knees for the sprinting.  I think I'll do that more often because I don't have to worry about falling down outside in the cold on the hard conrete!

A week or so before that, I did 2/5/3.  I actually had a dip station, so I used -40# on that, 20#ea on the upright row w/ external rotation, 155# on the deadlift, and side planks of 40sec each side. Afterward, I swam easy laps of the hotel pool for quite a while. I think I overdid it, because I was feeling sickly the next couple days.
