like a boy

hmm, let's see.

so, i did end up taking that nap. for about a half hour and definitely didn't want to get up and for sure did not want to go f-in run. but i did. spent some time on the treadmill.

warmed up for awhile. the right hamstring was tender, but didn't really hurt. did a nice slow warmup, kicked up the speed, kicked it up again, finished it out strong, and then cooled down. overall, somewhere around 3.4 miles. not great times, but good to move the legs.

climbed, 5 climbs. no stretching or situps or pushups.

last night was indoor. it was allright. tweaked my right hamstring some more and have been wrapping it at night and during the day. oh well. did around 115 situps and 80 pushups while playing and some quick stretching. had a good poach d. for some reason, i have been nervous going up for discs, got to figure out what kind of mental block i have going on.

today, heading to the gym. warming up on the treadmill, stretching, situps, not many pushups, and then lifting for a bit. looking to do a full body lift, same type as before.

should be good and i am actually looking forward to it.

case rested

she moves her body like a cyclone

well, i am tired. i have been tired for the last week or so.

on monday, i ended up just climbing. no situps or pushups.

yesterday, had a to take a day off because my gas cap broke off at the top of the tank. pain. fixed that and then went and threw around, did some jumping at the backboard stuff. pushup ladder and then situp routine. overall, stayed active. my hamstring/groin on my right side tightened up pretty well. ugh.

today, climbing. hopefully running as well. feeling tired. probably take a quick nap in the car and then hop on the treadmill.

stretching will feel good.

indoor tomorrow night.

jolly old saint nicholas

well, the holiday party has come and gone. good times. lot of fun, lot of booze, lot of little bit of sleep.

on saturday i went for a bike ride. pretty cold. my toes took the worst of it. oh well. the bike ride was around 40 minutes. just up 116 to 47 and back. did a half deck, about, of cards, alternating pushups and situps. somewhere around 115 pushups and the same for situps.

sunday was a rest. meaning a long drive home and couch action.

today, hitting the gym. some running, stretching, s-ups and p-ups, and climbing. will be good to climb with 2 days rest. hopefully it will be much better than friday, i felt pretty weak and wasn't really in it.

not much else to say. more some other day.

update about friday. just climbed for a little bit. my head hurt and i was not feeling it. panzy

it's to late to apologize (it's to laaaaaaaaaaaate)

well. took a day off yesterday. was hoping to go to indoor, but a snowstorm popped up and shut everything down. bummer. next week.

did a 1/2 deck of cards workout with wisebar, about 130 pushups in all. felt good and didn't hurt as bad as i thought today.

unfortunately, i am pretty sure i have a concussion. slipped and smacked the hell of out my head walking back from getting food. walking down a hill. better than breaking something.

but, i feel sick, have a headache and am not really very happy. oh well.

today i am still hoping to go to the gym, quick warmup on the treadmill and then full body lift stuff. climb for awhile. go home and clean our place up and get it ready for the x-mas tree.

anyway, i made another decision today.

next season, i have decided i am going to be great. i am willing to put in the time, effort, sweat, tears, and whatever else.

i will be talked about and they other team will be forced to guard me in, out, up, down, and wherever the hell else i want to go.

i am starting to put the work in now and it will only get better and better. it will be the most glorious pain i have ever been in and i am ready, willing, and looking forward to it.

fuck yeah.

get ready. i will be ready.

chicken mcnuggets y'all

same old things

like a bandit, like like a bandit bandit

climbing yesterday. didn't get a chance to run or stretch and then skipped situps and pushups.

did 6 climbs, felt pretty weak after the 2nd and kind of struggled the rest of the way.

went for a very short ride, nice to get on the bike again.

short post, not a lot to say, some work to do

can't help it, the girl can't help it (oh no!)

well. hmmm. i ate a lot the past few days.

i will start with the workouts. friday i went to the gym. did a very difficult hill workout.

20 min. , after a 5 minute warmup.
level 13, speed 8.5.

it was tough. i made it through, but had to change the speed to 7.5 and then 7 around the 15 minute mark.

stretched and then did situps. not sure of the exact numbers, but somewhere around 100.

did arms, overhead dumbell press.
3x10 w/15lbs.
calf raises
3x10 (each foot) w/15
bench press
3x5 w/115
leg press
3x10 w/90 extra

headed to a friend's house for dinner. that was awesome and went out after, which was fun.

saturday left me some time to climb. went to the gym and took our time with 6 climbs each. some tough ones, some easier ones.
later, went to a holiday party with j's professor. ate entirely too much and drank enough to make me not have wanted to consume so much. wasn't hydrated, but didn't need as much as i had. came home and exercised some more vices.

sunday was a day of waste. lots of laying around and sleeping, watching tv. oh well. again, ate too much junk.

today, i am heading to the gym afterwork. might do some interval stuff before climbing, or just hop on and run for awhile, we'll see.
get a stretch in and some pushups and situps.

probably heading to indoor on thursday. hoorah.

round midnight

i have been really tired lately. probably a little because of the new workout schedule, probably a little because i have been staying up too late, and probably because it's about that time of year where i just kind of feel tired all the time.

went to the gym yesterday.

ran a moderately difficult, 15 minute hill workout and then got into a calorie war with the woman on the treadmill next to me. that ended up being about 9.5 miles per hour, a level 3 incline for about 8 minutes and i over took her. boom!

did a full stretch and then did situps.

1x27 crunches
1x17 tacos
1x15 roll backs
1x23 crunches
1x15 tacos
1x15 roll backs
1x3 ibeam pullups

that was good. did 5 climbs of varying difficulty. one climb absolutely owned me. i want to try it again next time, but i am not sure if i am quite ready to complete it. we'll see

food log is going well. now the question is, indoor tonight or not? hmmm. that will have to develop on it's own and i will see where i stand a little bit later.

not much else. those things, man.

lady lumps

skipped the gym with the promise to myself that i would stretch and do situps and pushups once i got home.

got home and actually stretched and did situps and pushups. i was happy.

for pushups i used the pushups bar things for some sets, not for others.

1x10 w/bars
1x10 diamonds
1x10 no bars
1x10 w/bars
1x10 diamonds
1x10 elbows close to body w/bars

situps were;
1x27 crunches
1x15 tacos
1x15 roll backs
1x23 crunches
1x15 tacos
1x15 rollbacks

overall, not bad. proud that i didn't just sit on the couch. full stretching routine paid off, since i am able to move today. hamstrings are a little sore and my groin is tight.

foot still bugging me......maybe next week doctor.

going climbing today. happy about that. it is a lot of fun and is difficult.

some running before, stretch, situps and pushups, lift for a little bit, then climb.

need to eat a little less and a little better. that's all.

new kid on the block

gym was solid.

got a pretty sweaty interval workout in on the treadmill.

warmed up for around 7 minutes at around 8 min. miles. turned it up a notch for a couple minutes and then did 1 minute of 6 minute miles, followed by 1 minute of 8 min, and staggered those for 10 minutes total, 5 of each, and then cooled down for around 3 minutes.

stretched

situps and pushups.
1x20 crunch
1x10 staggered pushups
1x15 man taco
1x10 pushup
1x20 crunch
1x15 man taco
1x10 pushup
4x i-beam chinup

lifted for a little bit.

did overhead militaryish dumbell press of 3x10 at 15 lbs.

3x10 each foot calf raises with 15 lbs.

3x10 leg press with 90 extra on sled

3x4 bench press at 115. owned, need to get better at that

stretched a little more and then climbed

5 climbs, 3 really good ones. climbing is pretty sweet and a lot of fun.

not a bad day, i felt good. my foot is still bothering me and i need to call someone this week.

ha, those things.

black betty

it's finally starting to feel like winter, which is nice. i always get worried when it stays warm too long. not that i really do anything about it. kind of happy with the amount of bike riding i have been getting in, even with the cold and even with a pair of my pants getting shredded.

this weekend was a relaxing one, kind of expensive, but relaxing. i spent a lot of quality time on the couch, which was good.

i even got some exercise in.

played basketball, 2 v. 2 on saturday for a couple hours, mixed in with some jumping stuff and ended with navy seals.

1x10 staggered pushup (1/2 down, hold, all the way down, hold, 1/2 up, hold, all the way up=1)
1x20 crunch
1x10 diamond pushup
1x15 man taco
1x10 explode pushup (slow down, explode and try to get air on the way up)
1x15 roll back situp

felt sore the next day, which is good and lame.

rode my bike to and from boyden. about 25 degrees out, good to toughen up the face for winter.

basketball was actually fun. probably because we were all so bad and still slightly competitive.

started my food log. filled it in today. not too bad. little bit regrettable on dinner last night, but i know better now.

pats tonight, pumped.

for today, i am heading to the gym. workout update either tonight (probably not) or tomorrow (most likely)

foot still feels weird and i think i am going to make an appointment with the podiatrist this week to see if i can figure out what i need to do to get healthy and ready to go. (right foot, lower ankle?, top of foot bone spur?)

cough is all but gone, finally. should have got some cough syrup sooner. only, now i am having trouble falling asleep without my nyquil/dayquil/cough syrup cocktail. oh well.

start looking ahead now and make some little sacrifices along the way. makes the big ones seem like cake.
