As always, so good to get back in the gym.  I did, annoyingly, get kicked in my left lateral thigh in the morning by my baby horse.  She thought she was kicking her sister in a food fight.  It was a half hearted kick thank goodness.  I just have a bruise the next day.  That leg did feel a little tight during the workout but nothing terrible.  I felt light on the box jumps, and love all the landmine and core work.  A little sore all over the next day.  Did so many farm chores too.  Thanks!

That amrap is legit.  The strict press is real heavy.  Broke down to a rep scheme of 3/3/2/2.  Love it.  Emom felt great.  ‘A’ series was tough but no ab cramps, right on the edge though.  Had to take a couple quick breaks.  Thanks!

Mild amount of soreness next day.  Love this workout, potent.  Pistols are harder on the left leg.  I accidentally did 13 minutes on the amrap :).  Stretching was so good.  Thanks!

The bike and ski felt pretty good and sustainable.  I think I’ve picked too high a target on the row, dropped off pretty hard.  Thanks!

Kinda all over sore and tired from working all night but I wanted to move and stay awake.  This actually went really well.  Worked some soreness out.  Everything felt good.  Thanks!

Fairly sore lower body/back from previous day.  The strict press were heavy for me in this one.  Broke down to sets of 2.  Amrap was definitely a pump and challenging.  Emom was fun.  I struggled to do a minute unbroken on both the hollow body and arch body rocks.  Definitely sore the next day!  Thanks!

Legs so sore the next day!  Super fun to do new stuff.  Enjoyed all of it.  Been forever since I overhead squatted with a bar and felt pretty good.  Tried the pistols with 20# first and there was no way on the left leg.  10# was good, will try a little more next time.  Amrap was fun, low back got pumped with the hip extensions and DL’s.  Thanks!
