Morning Basketball

Tried to get fancy too many times. Still made a few shots and some good defensive moves. Had the pleasure of twisting the old ankle. That's always a sweet reminder that you're alive.. 

Monday Workout

100 push-ups
100 Sit-ups
100 Squats
Bunch of Shoulder raises
Good Amount of Core work
Focused Agility Ladder work
Lots of Curls

Went to jump rope for 6 minutes. Got 2 minutes in and my inner ear was feeling wonky. At 42 I don't mess with that so I called it a day. 

Sunday Ultimate

So five people showed up. It was sad. It was also 95° and graduation season but I still like to make fun of how lame it is that Wisconsin people can't deal with temps in the 90's. Anyway, I missed my AZ people today also just because if I lived there I'd easily be in one of the leagues they have there.

Friday Workout

Well that was fun! I went to the Rec Center for the first time in a long time. Basically did a chest and shoulder workout but with some bicep work. So I FINALLY was able to do a couple pull-ups which has not been possible until now due to my left bicep injury from last summer.
I also did a dead lift for the first time ever. I know that's super lame but whatever.
Added some core workout stuff into the mix. THEN I came home and jumped rope for my usual 6 minutes and ended with some focused agility ladder work downstairs.

Morning Basketball

Even after an interrupted sleep I got up to play ball and it was great! I had some decent shots, strong finishes and a couple fine passes.

100 Push-ups

Lots of shoulder work
Lots of ab and core work
A tiny bit of ladder work, not a lot since my legs were pretty wiped out from Ultimate on Sunday. 

Summer Ultimate week #1

We had perfect weather and 5 on 5. Great talent out there too! It was really fun. Bunch of new guys that I'm just getting to know and they're quality folks for sure.  Hope to have some familiar faces out there next week but I'll play with perfect strangers, no big deal.

Cellcom 5K with River

Really fun run with River today. He worked really hard and even pushed me a little bit. It won't be long and he'll be slowing his pace to let me keep up.

Back At It.

After a week of being sick and not being able to work out or go to basketball or anything I worked out today finally.
Started off with warming up with simple steps on the agility ladder
Then did a circuit of bicep curls, ab extensions and side planks all with agility ladder steps in between.

Then did another circuit of push-ups, sit-ups, squats with a dumbbell and shoulder exercises.

The cold that I have was really letting me know it was still around and so when I went up to jump rope I could only get to 2 minutes and my legs weren't having it.

Then I went to running club and ran for about 20 minutes through the woods with Rainn.

Basement and then Running Club

It was a shorter workout in the basement.
Some good ladder work.
60 push-ups
Shoulder raises
40 sit-ups
40 squats
Some Core work
5 Minutes Jump Rope

Then I went to running club and did a 5K. I was asked to run with the front group and this 4th grader. He was a beast.

Morning Basketball

Really good morning. My shot was pretty much there. My passing had some awareness to it. I was really glad that I took a rest of everything yesterday. I felt fully recuperated and like I could've run for another hour. 

6 Miles.

That was no fun. I think my main thought was "If I fall just right while this truck is passing me, this run will be over and Alissa will still get the insurance money."

Sprints and all that...

100 push-ups
100 sit-ups
squats, curls, core work
Agility Ladder work
6 Minutes of jump rope

about a half hour of chasing the frisbee around the back yard.

Running Club with the kids

Ran about 3 miles or so with the kids at Running Club. I didn't do anything else. I needed a rest day. 

Morning Basketball

I can really tell that I'm pushing it to the limits for my current fitness level.  I'm just so tired. Basketball was frustrating but better than last Thursday so there's that.

Basement Fitness

100 push-ups
100 Sit-ups
Bunch of curls
Shoulder lifts
Squats
Agility Ladder work
Jump rope 6 Minutes

I was feeling pretty blah the entire time. 

Morning Basketball

Still trying to re-find my shot and my legs are still tired from my sprinting workouts, but at least I scored some points.
