Getting ready to leave

Well, its been a while. I'm leaving for several months of training on Monday. The last couple months, its been a struggle balancing work, training, and family/friends. I've been working out with K regularly, which has been GREAT. This week, being my last week at the gym and the last week I'll be able to work out with K, I did two workouts a day every day except Thursday.

Here are some of the workouts I did this week:

Variation pushups
Pullups
Overhead squats
Snatches
Row 400 m
Three times through

21 deadlifts with 115 lbs
Run 320 m
Five times through

Alternate between KB cleans and barbell cleans
Sets of 5
Barbell presses, sets of 5
Alternate between tricep pushups and tricep presses with the jungle gym

As many rounds as possible in 10 minutes of 20 box jumps and 15 medball cleans
As many rounds as possible in 10 minutes of 20 pushups and 320 m run

K and I also played around one day with a long nylon strap that she bought at REI. Neither of our gyms have a place for a climbing rope, so we threw it over a squat cage and did those hand-over-hand body row/rope climb things. Then we used it with KBs for swings. We also tied all the KBs with it and pulled them in, across the room. That was fun, except I cut up my hands with the strap. Ouch.

I've been trying to increase my volume of running, but I don't think I've been doing nearly as many pushups and situps as I should. I'll definitely be increasing those while in training. :)

Well, I have no idea what's ahead of me, but I'll try to post my workouts every once in a while. :) Take care, stay in touch, and BE STRONG!
