I had very little energy from a very hectic day but, I haven&#8217;t yet worked out this week, so in my mind, I didn&#8217;t really have a choice. The workout was the Army Fit Test followed by some other stuff. I am not sure, but I don&#8217;t think the Army would take me =). <\/p>\n<p>The workout was: <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>400m run (as fast as you can)<\/li>\n<li>1 minute of pushups (strict chest to deck)<\/li>\n<li>1 minute of sit ups (strict all the way up and all the way down)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Followed by: <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Tabata squats<\/li>\n<li>Pull up ladder<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>My results for the fit test were:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>400m run: 1:36 (way faster than I thought it would be)<\/li>\n<li>1 min push ups: 38<\/li>\n<li>1 min sit ups: 34<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I was able to do 150 reps for tabata squats and again made it through 10 rounds (1 short of 11th) on the pull up ladder. I used a blue band. This is actually really good news. <a href=\"http:\/\/foodblog.familyofgoldsteins.com\/?p=634\" target=\"_blank\">The last time we did a pull up ladder<\/a>, I made it through only 9 rounds and I was using a stronger band. I like the continued progress I am seeing here. <\/p>\n<p>On the sheet that we used to record results for the fit test, we had to list out five goals. Being that we didn&#8217;t have much time to think about them, I hastily listed these five: <\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Dead lift 400lbs. <\/li>\n<li>Do 50 squats without a break.<\/li>\n<li>Do 10 kipping pull ups without a break. <\/li>\n<li>Learn hand stand push ups. <\/li>\n<li>Learn to not hate running. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>I&#8217;m happy there are people out there that can make it in to defend our country, rights, and liberty b\/c I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;d be accepted =). <\/p>\n<p>I can only imagine what is in store for us today&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I felt like I picked myself up and carried myself to work out yesterday.
