I like the idea of counting workouts, it helps keep you honest. I looked back at my schedule and figured that I had completed about 20 workouts since the new year.
Diane: 12min. I knew going in I couldn't do it with 225# deadlifts. I started with 135's and was surprised that I couldn't do 21 straight reps. I switched to 115# for the 15 and 9 reps. This was quite manageable and I was able to crank them off with great intensity. I had to use a bar on a smith machine to support my feet the handstand pushups. Workout felt great.
3-3-3-3-3-3-3 hang squat cleans: 75#. I started at 45# and paid attention to my form as best I could. The last 4 sets were all at 75# I think I could do more but I would not be able to concentrate on my form as much. It felt great today. Bit of a surprise following the workout I had to help some gear from one to the other. The gear was mainly in big bulking bags and weighed about 40#'s each. We moved them about 70 steps. Another good workout! We worked steady for the better part of an hour.
A quick word about diet. I have been following a zone like diet for sometime. My wife has pneumonia , my daughter was ill several co-workers and 'clients ' as well. All I got was sore throat for two days and a minor cough. I have no hard and fast proof but I have to think a healthy diet and therefore healthy immune system has something to do with it.
Finally there is a semblance of normalcy in my sched.
