Boo
I took two full days of rest after getting pummeled by Luka on Tuesday. We did a lot of stuff, but I swear it was those jumping-lunge things that totally smoked my quads and glutes. Amazing workout, that just keeps on giving and giving!
Friday I was still a bit tight, but I felt like I needed to do something. I did a quick warmup, and did a 5 minute RKC snatch test. I need to be able to do 100 snatches of a 20 kg kettlebell in 5 minutes before the RKC training on February 19. I hit 94, which given my personal power quotient at the moment, was pretty good.
Today I started out with some faster snatches, and did about 20 sets at 8 reps per 15 seconds, with 15 seconds of rest. Just an extra rep per 15 seconds of work makes a huge difference in the cardio component. Depending on how hearty the party tonight, I may try this cadence out for a complete snatch workout tomorrow (why do I think Monday is more likely?). Finished up with some kb cleans and presses, and some negative pull-up work. Sara Cheatham’s latest post kicked me in the butt a little bit, and I need to “want” this a little more than I have.
Oh, the party? I picked up a toga kinda thing. I just hope it’s not too cold tonight!
