Finally back to some weights this morning


I am happy to report that I was finally able to do a strength session this morning. Not so happy to report that I am feeling crappy again this afternoon so perhaps it was too soon! Live and learn...

Alarm went off at 5:30 am, great way to start the day:

15 minute warm-up run

great workout with Adrianne
-dynamic WU
-clean and jerk movement review
-10 clean and jerks (65#) run <.2 miles
-8 clean and jerks run <.2 (longer than the first run)
-6 clean and jerks run .2 miles
-4 clean and jerks run .25 miles
- 2 clean and jerks DONE 

The main set was just over 11 minutes all in.

It felt great to be moving some weight again but I made a few observations:
1. Should have gone a bit heavier (moved through the reps pretty quickly) but it was certainly a challenging load. I had to break up the sets of 10 and 8.
2. Felt VERY flat on the run...still not totally recovered and probably feeling some of the effects of adjusting to a strict Zone plan. 

Finished with a 15 minute run back home for a smoothie. Hoping to be back at it this weekend but I will prioritize getting 100% healthy.
