Press Press Press

Well, I am finally starting to feel better. I have a little bit of a dry throat in the mornings but I about 1 hour after I wake up I am all clear. This morning I even work up without feeling stuffy! But my throat feels a little dry this morning soo I am more then likely not going to be doing the workout today and do some lifting like I did last night.

Before doing my strength work I went for max pull ups and was able to accomplish 26!! My highest before was 22 so I am pretty excited. I may do some more pull ups this evening and see how many I can get. 
Then I was supposed to do push jerk but I ended up doing split jerk and less then halfway through Santos corrected me soooo I did not keep track of my time as I wasn't sure how to do push jerk. So that is enough from me. Looking forward to another strong workout this evening!

Sick all week


So I have forgone working out most of this week as Santos and I have been fighting a pretty nasty cold. I ended up taking Thursday off of work because I felt so bad and I have not attempted any workouts that would require me to do a lot of heavy breathing as my throat seems to be where most of my problem is. I am hoping to get back into things this week but we will see. Have a great week!

200+9 
double unders
sit ups
squats
pull ups
4 people per team
I don't remember my time but it was a lot of fun to work with a couple of different people. My only problem with the workout was that I didn't feel like I got that much accomplished. Sooo ya other then that it was a great time and I am looking forward to working out with my hubby tomorrow!!

Last time we did this workout I did 385 reps although we did dips instead of o-head lunges but the increase in reps came from my double unders. I also increased my max double unders in 5 minutes as well! BOO YA!
