HY: Basketball + 10MT-Total Body 2/Core Cardio/Upper Body + TC-Flow + Splits
Had kind of a housework family day. In the morning I completed a Spring Vacation Project, which was to switch the flooring on my workout/office area. It had gotten big holes and cracks in it and was getting dangerous to walk on because one might trip. So I took the whole morning to clear everything off the flooring, switch it out with a new one, the put everything back. Cleaning everything as I went. I was thinking that that would have been a good workout in itself. I should have worn a HRM. Worked up a good sweat, too. My room now looks and feels like new! Watched a movie with my kids in he early afternoon, then played some basketball with my son. Again, I should have worn a HRM. It was getting late so I came in to start my regular workout.
I had forgotten how intense the 10MT could be. Previously, I had used the easy bands so I guess I was breezing through it. Now, I'm using the second to hardest bands I have and I'm dying. There was no way I was going straight through any of these workouts. In TB2 my shoulders, back, and legs were dying. I barely made it through CC, and my arms got a huge pump and burn with UB. Bi's and Tri's were really feeling it. On several of the moves, I couldn't last to the end of the minutes. WIMP!!! I was really breathing heavy through out, and today I needed to get out the big towel to keep my sweat at bay.
I did a slow flow today to renew that muscle memory for the flow. Felt really good. When all was done, I had burned almost 900kcals with my splits yet to go. I plan to do them later after my bath. It's going to be interesting because the new flooring is very slippery so I wonder if I'll have a good time staying up... or down...
Just finished splits and it was great with the new slippery floor. Easy to inch out and get lower. I think I hit my lowest mark to date, but still hip flexor tightness. Maybe I'll do some foam rolling on them in the days to come. Great workout. If I add all the extras, I torched over 1000kcals today.
Welcome to the new direction for this blog. In it, I will post my experiences and thoughts related to the sport of Pickleball and my efforts to grow Pickleball in the Prefecture of Kagoshima located in the southernmost tip of mainland Japan. I hope to post pictures and videos of the activities and events that are held in Kagoshima. And one day, hopefully, you will come and play some Pickleball with us! Please comment if you visit!
