Tough Workout

I went to the CSY to do it since I like their options for tall things to stand on. Plus I like their floor for landing on. I tried the altitude drop legs with my new toe shoes (which are super cool and blue—I'll post a picture eventually), but that did not work at all. My feet were freezing and the impact wasn't pleasant, and it felt like it was pulling my skin every time I landed. Thankfully I still had my good Pumas in my bag and could wear them! This workout was super hard because I was already sore from Monday (same workout) and Tuesday (12 minutes of wall squats) and tired from having ridden, but I attacked it and made my time in the gym worth it. All I needed was Will and it would've been perfect.

• Altitude drop legs: 10×5 reps, 5 breaths rest
• Wall squat: 1 minute on, 30 seconds off, 3 times
• Altitude drop GHR: 10×5 reps (20 seconds rest)
• Standing ham: 1 minute on, 30 seconds off, 3 times
• Bench press: 65 lb, 10 deep breaths, 1 rep, 6 deep breaths, 2 reps, 3 deep breaths, 3 reps; 2 total times (breathe while holding bar up)
• Dead lift: 75 lb, 10 deep breaths, 1 rep, 6 deep breaths, 2 reps, 3 deep breaths, 3 reps; 2 total times (breathe while standing holding bar)
• Curl: 25 lb, 10 deep breaths, 1 rep, 6 deep breaths, 2 reps, 3 deep breaths, 3 reps; 2 total times (breathe holding bar at top)

At lunch, I'd gone to the DHY for 22 minutes on the step mill. I needed something aerobic and short, and there's still no going outside to run for this girl—I need about 20 more degrees before I'd be comfortable running outside!
