All the while, with pain and limited mobility in my arms due to soreness from <a href=\"http:\/\/foodblog.familyofgoldsteins.com\/?p=654\" target=\"_blank\">Monday&#8217;s workout<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Tonight&#8217;s workout was our <a href=\"http:\/\/foodblog.familyofgoldsteins.com\/?p=583\" target=\"_blank\">baseline workout<\/a>, which I did on August 19th, 2009&#8230; just about 2 months ago. The only different was this time, we did it three horrible times. The workout (in case you are too lazy to click the link) was: <\/p>\n<p>3x<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>500m row<\/li>\n<li>40 squats<\/li>\n<li>30 sit ups<\/li>\n<li>20 push ups<\/li>\n<li>10 pull ups<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>My times for each set were 5:00, 6:06, and 6:22. <\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s amazing to me about this workout and, well, crossfit in general is just the sheer amount of work you can make yourself do. As an example here, in 17:28, I was able to do:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1500m row<\/li>\n<li>120 squats<\/li>\n<li>90 sit ups<\/li>\n<li>60 push ups<\/li>\n<li>30 pull ups<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Had you given me the workout in the above listing, I&#8217;d look at your and tell you that you are crazy. Breaking it down into manageable, yet still really challenging sets works really well. rec<\/p>\n<p>I am really happy with my progress here. The first time I did the baseline workout, my time for one set was 5:40 and I was doing jumping pull ups. It&#8217;s great to see that I am doing something harder (pull ups with a resistance band, not jumping pull ups) and my time went down. It&#8217;s beautiful. <\/p>\n<p>What isn&#8217;t beautiful is that I still can&#8217;t straighten my arms. I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;ll be better tomorrow. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Man, it&#8217;s been a LONG day.
