I'm back to posting on upper body strength days after taking two weeks off for some specific, alternative strength training. DO NOT CONFUSE STRENGTH WITH CONDITIONING! My numbers were way down this morning from the same workout last month. I banged up my collarbone/shoulder area running an obstacle course on Saturday, so I took it easy on the push-ups.

CU:13,10,7,5,6=41r
SU:17,16,17,16,17=83r
PU:22,20,21,20,25=108r
SQ:15,15,16,17,19=82r
(The first 15 SQ were full range jump squats slapping palms to the ceiling.)

You must have some connection to the town to know it by that name.

I just realized I was supposed to cycle these exercises today. I wonder what my numbers would have looked like if I had done them that way instead of doing each exercise for 5 minutes and then moving on. My eagerness got the better of me today!

In the interest of protecting my elbow did DB swings instead of pull ups/rows and also reverted back to the knee push ups for a few weeks.

Db swings 15x5=75reps
Sit ups 16x5=80reps
Knee push up 20x5=100reps
Air squat 22x5=110reps
