Have I been too busy to blog? Nope. Have I been working out? Yup. Have I been accurately recording workouts? Nope. Am I fine with blogging only when I feel like it? Absolutely.

I’ve said it before and I’ll likely say it again: I fear for our democracy.

Uhm, yeah, so I tweaked my back whilst doing deadlifts a few weeks ago, and for a while thought I had damaged bones or tendons and not merely muscles. I have completely recovered, and worked out for five consecutive days (M-F) this week.

Every 30 seconds for 10 rounds:
1 strict burpee + 1 strict L C2B pull-up
1 strict HSPU
Every 30 seconds for 10 rounds:
1 strict burpee + 2 strict L C2B pull-ups
2 strict HSPUs

10 RFT
Run 200m
10 unbroken wall ball shots (20#, 10′)
10 unbroken Abmat sit-ups
10 unbroken back extensions

Every 15 seconds, resting between sets
Deadlift, HPC+J, return barbell to shoulders, mid-thigh, floor
30 reps @ 65#
25 @ 70
20 @ 75
15 @ 80
10 @ 85
5 @ 95
5 @ 100

No back pain whatsoever. Yay!

5 RFT
Row 500m
15 BP @ 135#

A main site WOD. And it was tough. I began 5 rounds of BP with 10, 7, 6, 5, & 5 unbroken reps. I was doing singles by the end of 3-5 rounds. Ha! I could barely lift my arms to shower.

I didn’t watch a single second of the CFG. Why? Because I couldn’t conceivably care less. What would I rather do? Watch Nova documenters about the planets, Fosse & Verdon, Derry Girls, Glow.

And bake the most delicious lemon meringue cheesecake.
