Got this work in before the Super Bowl where my Seattle Seahawks ended up losing a heart breaker to the Patriots. Sports is a great metaphor for life - you are going to go through tough times, it's really about how you respond.

Short walk
3 pull-ups

Longer walk - 30 minutes
Total pull-ups - 23, down 2 from last week. 25 push-ups, same as last week. This was intentional, last week I had build up to a first set of 7 pull-ups and just felt too close to failure on several reps. I wanted to back off and focus most of the work today really on the walking, just to try and re-set my gait, connect my shoulders with my hips with a bit of brisk walking. This went really well today and I was very pleased all around. I think I am in a good spot here for the last week in a 6-week cycle, going to be a tough week, 6 reps on every set with double 24s. I am looking forward to testing myself and seeing how this goes.
