Well my left calf is still laid up but definitely on the mend. No BJJ tonight. On the upside, I did my push-ups this morning and they are finally getting easier! I am up to 3 sets of 20 and my final reps no longer feel like utter misery, the way my last few reps felt two weeks ago, when I was only performing 10 and 12 at a time. I can feel the strength building in my arms so when I push the last ones, there is actual, honest-to-goodness, muscle fibers firing off and doing the work. Does this make any sense? I am still working hard, but the work is more enjoyable because I have more efficient tools to complete the task. Adrenalin is lovely tool, but when you are building strength in weak areas, true ability to complete an action is refreshing after two weeks of relying on guts and stubbornness. Bonus, years ago I used to work out to Tamilee Webb's Buns of Steel. There, I said it, so what. (what? stop laughing). This morning I realized those exercises will come in hand
Eloquence escapes me right now. Bluntness plays my gray matter like children's toy. 440m run: 79 seconds...:) Push-ups: 48...:) Sit-ups: 48...:) Pull-ups: 6..:) Obstacle Course: 4:07...:(. Needed to be under 4:00. Almost got there but I got hung up with the final two obstacles for toooo long. I am disappointed. and yet my undying optimism steps in like Auntie Mame. When I started down this path in February I could hardly knock out 15 push-ups, pull-ups were a pipe dream, and my sit-ups were so so. My 440 time? Laughable like frozen molasses. Now. now I have fast twitch muscle. I can sprint. I can work to the point of exhaustion, to the point of exhaustion, and then harness the power of adrenalin, and wield it like a sword. I learned today however, that adrenalin can wield right back at you, and rip it's power away. I went at this last 6-foot wall today like a blood-thirsty piranha sent from hell and my usually rock solid wall climbing abilities vaporized i
My Grandma Annabelle passed away last night. She was 91, almost 92 years old. I had planned on taking her out to dinner to Anthony's, her favorite restaurant in San Diego, but early yesterday morning she had a "heart event," which due to the fact she was under hospice care, was treated with pain management, as opposed to a full-blown medic ride and hospital stay. At 91 years, a "heart event" is not something you treat and ponder and figure out. At 91, the heart just gets tired. My dad called me mid-morning to tell me she might not be up to a car trip into town. Dad told me my mom went to visit her and remarked she was extremely tired. Grandma had become extremely fragile the last 6 weeks, and vehicle transportation was a tiring effort for her. Instead of Anthony's, I decided on a cheeseburger, fries, and a coke, which I knew she would love. When I arrived at her care facility, The Alpine View Lodge Retirement Villa (an awesome place, designed lik
Whoa@ big guy!
ReplyDeleteI bet they'd have murderous spider guards.
Awesome. Yes, like human spiders :-) Lol @ Megan, yeah, you wouldn't want to play spider guard with one of them!
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting. Things like that redefine what I think humans are capable of. Just like parkour, rock-climbing etc.
