OK, lets not get carried away.  Got the adventure workout in..(10 hundred yard uphill runs…its a stretch to call them sprints.. lol) ..stretching, warmdown.  Got home…there was breakfast waiting , leftover from wife, two sons and son’s GF .. so I fried two eggs, big glass of water with some glutamine, kept to one slice of bacon…BUT…the pancakes were calling my name. I also know we have some genuine syrup made from maple sap on our little patch of heaven. Ok, so I had one. I am not training for the olympics…

Have a great Sunday. Lets go,  Red Sox.

Weather is still nice in SC, (actually its awesome when humidity starts to wane).  On weekend days when the gym is a little stifling and the outdoors is great we (w/o partner and I) often steal some weights from our little neighborhood gym and mix it up outside. Today’s plan is:

Dumbell curl and press

lunge halfway up a hill (about 50 yards)

run the other half way up

20 pushups at the top

jog/run/stumble accross the flat top (about 80 yards)

20 barbell (only, no weight) squats  - This part is cool, there is a view of the ocean.

get back down the hill any way you can. (preferably not on your ass and face first is also discouraged)

Scheduled is 6 rounds. A couple of times it grew to eight, but the recovery on that was a few days…    There are any number of things you could do. Dont really need the weights. Pushups, situps, and all kinds of Plyos can be mixed it. Mostly its based on X-fit type of work.  Enjoy!
