Pain free!

No pain yesterday! I went up stairs, down stairs, and stood for long periods of time in weird positions doing surgery. All this mobility and glut isolation is working! Yay!

I'm still not going to rush it. My left leg still doesn't feel normal, but if I think about it, it hasn't in at least 6 months since I started to play ultimate again. I'm probably at my baseline, which admittedly is a really tight set of hip flexors, hamstrings, and IT bands. The goal is next week to do some deadlifts, row, and power anything. No squats, running, KBS, or box jumps for another 1.5 weeks. It's ok. The time now= no injuries later.

I will say...modifying workouts sucks. Being injured sucks. Doing workouts alone sucks.
Ok, I just had to get that out. I was tired, frustrated, and pissed off yesterday before going to the gym. I showed up anyway.

Tues 11/1
A1-A2
Weighted dead hangs and ring dips, 3-3-3
Deadhangs with 2.5-2.5-5lbs (failed on the 3rd here)
Ring dips: controlled negatives for a 5 count

I am at least 10lbs heavier than I was 4 months ago, so really it's like 12.5,12.5,15lbs for the deadhangs!

MetCon:
30-20-10
Power wall balls at 10#'s.
Banded pullups so I could go fast and get my HR up
Standing ring pushups

9:59

Went too light on the wall balls. All unbroken. Should have gone to 12#'s. Just didn't know how my leg was going to feel so I didn't chance it. Blue banded pullups were so much resistance I couldn't kip! Ha! I did all of these dead hang, did the first 30 unbroken, and then sets of 10 because of forearm/grip strength and the lack of being able to kip! Ring pushups were fine, I really focused on getting to full range of motion.
