May 10, 2019, Friday: X2 - Mobility & Recovery + Push-Ups and Pull-Ups.
I actually had some time today, but I was feeling a bit run down, so I decided to stick with the schedule and do recovery. In my younger days, with this much time on a Friday, I probably would have tried to do another resistance routine to finish out the week, but not anymore. Stuck with the recovery.
I'm a bit tighter than I used to be so the stretching part was disappointing. Less range of motion in my stretches. I a lot of hot spots in my calves that wouldn't release, so I just moved on. Not many hot spots in my hamstrings, though. But overall, the foam rolling felt good.
I had some extra time and motivation, so I did three sets of 30 reps of Push-Ups on my Push-Up Stands. The stands increased my range of motion so I wasn't able to get to 50 reps in one set. But that is my goal for Push-Ups on the stands. Then I knocked out 20 reps of Pull-Ups, then a set of 10 reps. This is the first time for me in a LONG time to do 20 reps in a row with no breaks. I was very happy. I wanted to get to at least 15 reps in my second set, but my wife made me laugh so I couldn't get it.
In the end, I burned a nice 371 kcals. Just an easy workout with some burn at the end.
