Swings, pushes and lunges

3 rounds
25 x 17kg d.bell swings
15 push-ups
10 lunges holding a 20kg plate overhead

Not for time, for to know I'd actually done at least one workout this week.

Nichole's WOD

At Lynette's training studio, it's too small to be called a globo gym

Buy-in
3 Hill runs (I'd call them hill sprints, but I'm being honest)
About as steep as the BrandX hill, but 2-3 times as long

Nichole's WOD
3 RFT
10 x D.bell push press
20 x D.bell
HPC 30 x D.bell deadlift

12.5kg dumbbells.

About 12 minutes.

The presses were OK. the HPC were a forearm killer and the deadlifts were a little too easy at that weight.

The place is so small that if I used a bar for the whole thing I'd block 2 or 3 people training. They just got a power cage though, so I can see a few back squat workouts taking place there until I get squat stands sorted.

Cash-out 30 KTE

Nice to be able to do something again. I'm going to hurt (even more) tomorrow. Fun.

Deadlifts

Some.

Just messing around to start getting my spine to uncurl from the shape of office chairs and airplane seats

Deadlift, Box jumps - sort of

3 Rounds
15 x 60kg deadlifts
2 passes there and back jumping over; 12" box, 20" box, 12" box, 20" box

8:40

Very hard getting my back set for the deadlifts, too much time in front of computers lately. Which is why I wanted to do deadlifts.

12 x HS butt touches - Handstand against a wall, lean further, bending at thee hips and touch my butt against the wall. Getting used to the feeling to lead up to a pike into a handstand
