Resistance Work

First day of new session today, and found that I am the only one of the group who signed up. Thats OK, I don't mind the great rate I get for a personal trainer.

Todays workout:

- Step up + backwards lunge
- Back extension with a twist
- Squat + chest press
- straight arm plank on ball

- Eccentric hamstring with exploding pushup
- kneeling rear delt fly
- lying on back, legs up, arms out, swing legs (slow) side to side
- bench drop

- side dumbbell drop
- Superman, with opposite arm+leg

good intense workout! Thanks Kristaps

Slow Cycling? What?

The stupid coach just makes shit up all the time.

Todays workout is 2 hours cycling, 1 hour running, 1 hour resistance.
That is some fine Makin' Shit Up right there.

And it gets better. I am supposed to allow extra time, so that I go at least 2 minutes per 5k slower than my usual pace. Commute is not a race he says. Oh course not I say, its a workout. Going slower, like thats gonna help anything.

The run will be easy anyway. Its only my second day back from running. No speed there.

I will give it a try. It really is making shit up though, just to be clear.
