11-17-09 Tuesday Week 42

Noon class enjoying a 400M stroll involving barbells...

I haven't been told not to do lunges and today's workout was just too appealing. The hammie is feeling better and I am feeling the pain more in my back than anything. Weird. I've been taking it very easy which is making me slightly insane. My mood is much better when I can workout.

Training Log
Noon
Weighted walking lunge/push-press for 400 meters.
Four lunge steps, alternating legs, followed by 5 reps of push-press repeated through 400 meters. Rack and press from back, front, or alternate at will. Rest when and where needed but clock keeps running.

Time -- 36:28 (I used a 35# barbell)

That was a pitifully slow time but I was really being careful of my hamstring. I'm sure it should have felt a lot worse, but I went so slow. The arms were pretty freaking fried at the end and legs aren't as bad as I thought they would be. Got a rip on my thumb. Hopefully won't be any worse tomorrow.
