Had a surprise visit by my son Gabriel today for the last half of the ruck. Gabe is getting back into shape with kettlebell training and is ready to start rucking now. It's really great that he came out but my legs and glutes were really tired and tight from yesterdays' excellent but very explosive/high volume session and having him there made me push perhaps just a little more than I would have.
Got some great interval times, however :)
I started out slowly but lap number four timed out at 7:34 and that was surprising fast
Legs loosened up a bit after each squat but tightened up as soon as I put some speed into it
50 lb Ruck
12 laps
11 iso squats
lap 4 7:38
lap 8 7:12 !
lap 11 6:59 I pushed the red line just a bit to bring that one in by the hair of my chinny chin chin :)
I will feel that tomorrow. Hell I feel that now'
1:55
BW 167.2
BF 12.2
W 56.6
We'll see how I feel tomorrow as to what press weight I use

"And in those simple beautiful movements I remembered what was really important in training; that consistency trumps intensity; all the time. That intensity is born from consistency. That one cannot force it, one has to lay in wait for it, patiently, instinctively, calmly and be ready to grab it when Grace lays it down in front of you."
