Fitness in 100 words
“Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, c&j, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports. ”

I spent half the morning trying to psyche myself up for another WOD. I even got as far as going downstairs and doing the first seven burpees. That’s when reality stepped in and told me to stop kidding myself. I’m hoping I feel a bit stronger this afternoon!
I didn’t get as far as 7 Burpees. My effort was two panadol and walking stiffley around the house. But I’m still on a mental high from just being able to go the distance on that one. I feel like superman “after a bad day”.
Hahaha. 2 glasses of red wine and I was in bed by 8.30pm totally buggered. Tell Lee I’m sorry I didn’t do her WOD, but I’ll have it done and post my time here before the weeks out.
WOD done on Friday 28th May

I started out well and did kipping pull ups for the first round. If I had have stuck with it I would still be there now! So for round two onwards I substituted Jumping Ring Pull ups. Thanks Lee for a challenging WOD!
22:12. Subbing horizontal pullups for regular pullups.
Nice WOD Lee – my legs are punished and warmed up for tomorrow now!
