Catch-Up Workout Reports for the month of April

The Month of April to the first few workouts of May.  Okay, it happened, I got lax with my posting after coming back from the USA, and I never got back into it on a regular basis.  But since I am starting a new round of Body Beast, I wanted to catch up on all the workouts I didn't post over the last month.  So here is a list of all the workouts I did in the time period.  A few points, though, First of all, there were days that are not listed here, mainly Saturdays (with the exception of the 28th) and Mondays.  In April, I did the 6x Challenges EVERYDAY.  On the days that I didn't not list, I just simply didn't wear a HRM so not calorie total to report.  On the days that I did report, I WAS wearing an HRM so I had a calorie count to report.  So, just as a reminder, here are the Six Challenges I did everyday from April 1 to April 30.  There are only 5 visible challenges, but for the lower Push-Up challenge, I also did a 5-Grip Pull-Up Challenge.  So for every variation of Push-Up, I had a different
Pull-Up grip.  The five grips were Wide, Standard, Close, Chin-Up, and Parallel grip.

4-06-18 (Friday) 6x Challenges
4-08-18 (Sunday) Tennis + 6x Challenges
4-10-18 (Tuesday) P90X3 - Total Synergistics + 6x Challenges
               For some reason, I didn't write down what I did, but I basically used the same weights as did the last time I did this routine.  There may have been a few differences in weights, but nothing more that 1.25kgs to 2.5kgs. at the most.

4-11-18 (Wednesday) Tennis + 6x Challenges
4-12-18 (Thursday) 6-Pack Shortcuts - Upper Body + 6x Challenges
4-13-18 (Friday) Piyo - Buns + 6x Challenges
4-15-18 (Sunday) Tennis + 6x Challenges
4-17-18 (Tuesday) Insane Arm Building + 6x Challenges
4-18-18 (Wednesday) Tennis + 6x Challenges
4-19-18 (Thursday) P90X3 - Incinerator + 6x Challenges
              On this workout, I wrote down the information on the worksheet.  Everything was basically the same as before, but one exception.  I lowered the weight on one move, Move 15. Hail to the Chief. My Triceps were just fried and I had to go lighter.

4-20-18 (Friday) Pickle-Ball + 6x Challenges
4-22-18 (Sunday) Tennis + 6x Challenges
4-24-18 (Tuesday) P90X3 - Eccentric Upper + 6x Challenges
              On this routine, I went down 2.5kgs on Move 3. Military Press but went up 2kgs on the last move, Move 19. Kneeling Preacher Curl.  Outside of that, everything was the same.  I know there were things I was going to report about this particular routine, but it is too long after now, and I really don't remember specific details about the routine.  This is why I want to get back into writing about my workouts, so I don't forget the details.

4-25-18 (Wednesday) Tennis + 6x Challenges
4-26-18 (Thursday) 6x Challenges
4-27-18 (Friday) Pickle-Ball + 6x Challenges
4-28-18 (Saturday) Tennis + 6x Challenges
4-29-18 (Sunday) Tennis Tournament + 6x Challenges
              The tournament was not bad.  My son and I teamed up again for the Men's Doubles.  In league play, we won our first two matches, but lost the third.  But that got us into the main draw.  We had to play catch-up in our first round match and we almost had it, but it just didn't come together.  We were both really disappointed because it was a pair that we really should have beaten.  In our last tournament, we were blown out of the water in the first round of the main draw, which, incidentally was our first time to make it into the main draw.  This time we won four games, so we are improving.  Next time, I hope to get a win in the first round.

Here are the totals for the month of April as I keep them straight from my HRM.

5-01-18 (Tuesday) Golf
              To end April with a tennis tournament was nice.  I didn't do anything on Monday the 30th because I was just too tired to do much of anything.  But I did finish off my 6x Challenges to keep my perfect challenge record for the 30 days.  May started off with Golf.  I was actually pretty satisfied with my play.  When I consider the fact that it has been almost a year since I played last, and it was raining during the last 9 holes, yes, satisfied.  Playing in the raid is tough, but it doesn't really seem like it would be.  But it is.  On the Final day of April, I wanted to do something big, but I was exhausted, so I could only manage doing the 6x Challenges.  But the final rep counts were huge!  So it took a while to get through everything, but I did it!  Then, after the golf, I wanted to start Body Beast on May 2, but again, I was just too exhausted and I took my tennis day off.  Very rare occurrence, for me to skip tennis.

In the end, after a day of gold, I burned 1894kcals.  I was hoping for a lot more, but it was a bit chilly so I kept my movement to a minimum.  But it was a fun day.  I don't know when my next chance to play will be, but I hope it is soon.

Now that the catch-up is done, I hope to start May with a good clean slate, and be regular with my workout reports.  I don't like playing catch up.
