OR
Aerobic Restoration
25-40 minutes of one of the following performed at 60-70% effort – easy, restorative pace:
* Swim (this is my first choice, and if you have an ocean, even better)
* Row (focus on mechanics, smooth and efficient with a very low stroke per minute pace)
* AirDyne (keep the pace conversational and relaxed)
* Cycling (get outdoors and enjoy the scenery as you ride)
* Hike (nothing crazy here, find a nice easy slope and go for a walk outdoors)
Mobility and Maintenance
* Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them.
* Choose 2-3 Lower Body Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 10-12 minutes with them.
* Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them.
– AND/OR –
* Body work from a licensed body worker (ART, Graston, acupuncture, etc…)
45 minutes stationary bike active recovery. 200 calories and 13km. Heart rate between 100-120.
First time I have been able to go to gym since Wednesday.
18.2 7:01 with 5 attempts, made 185#, failed @ 195 @ 187#
Will redo tomorrow.
Redid 18.2. The first time I didn’t even finish. I got to round ten and one burpee. Today I finished in 11.38 and had time for one power clean. I had 167 on the bar so that was what I got. I have been inspired by everyone’s scores to go harder. The notes helped a lot for improving. I did the first one really badly. The second was better but nowhere near ideal. Looking forward to next week.
Nice improvement!
