3 Rounds: 10 chest to bar pull ups (jumping) Followed by 1 mile run 8:54 then 16:07 mile I got a good jump and pull to my chest the first 2 rounds and then got about half the reps the 3rd round. The f squats felt good, below parallel. The 3rd round I felt a few where I was leaning forward but was able to correct the next rep. And as usual, no push up no jump on the burpees and they still suck. The run sucked even worse than usual. I was talking with Brian after the workout and he brought up a good point about my running. He suggested that I run hard and then walk when I need to, run hard, walk, etc.... I started thinking about that and realized that I'm still hanging on to the "no walking" mentality. When I first started working out that was a big hurdle, to complete a lap without walking. As a result, now, I'm not getting faster I'm just able to maintain a pace that keeps me from walking. If I switch my mindset to try running hard a little further each time I should achieve the same result; after a while I'll be able to run hard the entire mile. Then I can move it up to 2 miles, a 5k etc. |
