Workout Recap - Week of September 26, 2021
Transition back to the old pattern completed! Granted, I did only four workouts this week because I was pushing myself harder overall this month than in other recent ones, but the important thing is that I'm back on track and ready to attack whatever comes next.
Tuesday
Type: Pass/Fail
Close Handstand Push Ups - 2 sets of 13 (pass)
Isometric L-Hang - 2 sets of 23 breaths (pass)
Shrimp Squats, both hands behind me - 2 sets of 8, each side (pass)
Bonus: 6 chin ups
I'd been neglecting this set of movements somewhat in the last few weeks, so it was good to bring it up to two sets again. It felt pretty solid overall.
Wednesday
Type: Pass/Fail
Uneven Pull Ups - 2 sets of 5, each side (pass)
Stand-to-stand Bridges, one wall touch on the way up - 2 sets of 6 (pass)
Archer Push Ups - 2 sets of 14, each side (pass)
Bonus: none
Some progress with the push ups, and I held steady with the other two. It would've been nice to have tacked a bonus on top, but I'm not too down about skipping that during a recovery week.
Friday
Type: As Fast As Possible
3 sets of:
15 Prisoner Squats
10 Lunges (each side)
15 Bridges
10 Side Lunges (each side)
10 Spider Push Ups (each side)
10 Straight Leg Raises
Time = 13:30
Bonus: 7 chin ups
This one was a leg-burner. I think some more focus on my lower body is in order to improve my staying power, so more workouts like this one might be in my immediate future.
Saturday
Type: As Fast As Possible
40 Prisoner Squats
30 Push Ups
20 Hanging Knee Raises
10 Pull Ups
10 Bridges
Time = 4:30
Bonus: 12 breath isometric flex hang
A solid all-rounder to close out the week. I had intended to do one of my old weekend challenges, but circumstances conspired against finding a good time for that, so I thought this would be a decent substitute that wouldn't suffer as much from suboptimal performance.
