2 x5:00 Rd (3:00 rest)
5 Push-ups
10 x 16"  Box Step-ups
15 Lunges

1. Push-ups
   • Coming together.
   • The first round each time was much better. By the end I was falling apart a bit.
   • It wasn't that they were any harder, well they were, but not that much, it was that I couldn't keep everything connected and fell apart into a bunch of separate body parts.
2. Step-ups
   • Went for a bit lower box height and I think it was wise.
   • Both hips felt pretty solid, but not by much. This scaling idea might have some value after all.
   • Breathing pattern had a big influence, see below.
3. Lunges
   • Left leg is still less stable, but it is improving.
   • Stability on either leg was directly related to how well I avoided chest breathing. The silly thing is, it's no harder to do when I'm puffed and I get more air in, but I guess out of habit I revert back to a panic type breathing patter, which makes me feel panicky.Sounds a bit new-agey, but it really has an amazing effect.

Overall

• Not a disaster.
• Still inconsistent.
