12-09-17 (Saturday) HY: 12 Days of Fitmas Day 5 + OCR Dead Hang Day 9 + Ab EMS + TCF.
Usually, Saturday is an off day, but since I'm all caught up in these challenges, it can't be a full off day. I had to get my challenges done, SOOOO, I went through all my challenges and crushed them.
I did the Dead Hang first. As I said yesterday, I wanted to up the ante and do something that would hopefully increase the improvement speed. So this is it. I am adding a 5kg med ball to the challenge. I am going to use that ball for a week and see how it goes the day after without the ball, most likely next Saturday night. My best straight time was 90 seconds one week into the challenge. Now, I want to see how more stress will improve the training. Day 9 is 2 minutes and 20 seconds. I did it with three divisions: 60-40-30-10. Those last 8 seconds in the 30 second block were torture! The burn was majorly intense and painful. I couldn't finish out with 40 seconds. I had to tap out, then come back with a tiny 10 seconds which were no problem.
For the 12 Day of Fitmas, the Day 5 move is Burpees. Thankfully NOT 5 miniutes, rather, only 5 reps. We were given three options, Easy, Intermediate, and Advanced. I added a fourth option, "Super Advanced" The difference is that I did a Tuck Jump at the end, not just a high jump. I crushed Day 5 and all the other four days.
I got my Ab EMS in and finished my day with my Flow series.
In the end, it was just a filler for today, so no HRM. But I was happy with especially the Dead Hang.
