Daily score: 6 recovering from show/party

Workout:

30 mins on peloton and sauna session

We hosted a Liberty horse show/party the night before.  There had been a lot of work leading up to it and I was definitely coming down from all the stress.  A friend gave us a peloton bike so I thought I’d try it out just to move a little bit.  Was fun, mostly felt like a bike dance party lol.

Loved all of this.  Happy with how fast I’m getting through the ttb.  I had to do single are on the bottoms up kb  holds because the lightest I have in a pair is 26.  And that was just too much as a double.  Thanks!

Upper body still felt a little tight from downwinding and then not moving at work for a couple days.  HS on parallettes are seeming less scary.  KB drills still feel super functional.   Everything else felt great too!  Got 40 unbroken on the kb snatches.  Thanks!

Didn’t have a spotter on the bench press today and I did 125x3 but didn’t touch my chest.  Right shoulder still a little off from downwinding and some tendinitis in that elbow, only bothered my on the pull ups and push ups, but not terrible.  Pretty happy with everything else.  Thanks!

Workout:

Mountain biking, 4 hours

Shoulder was tired but didn’t bother me on the bike.  Felt so fit for riding, barely phased me.  Pretty cool.  Thanks!

Workout:

2.5 hours downwinding

Back and body were feeling so good I was able to really push.  Felt so good and made some progress.  Right shoulder was wasted by the end but stoked at how well my back help up.  What we’re doing is working!  Thanks!
