9/7/19 Saturday September 7, 2019 (bodyweight)

From NYC

Warm up

10x:
Step-back lunges 5/5
Squats x 10
Push-up x 10

Indian clubs x 2 minutes

Band wrist extensions, 10 x 2 sets per hand

7 miles walking

Notes - Hitting some very basic bodyweight training in NYC and doing a ton of walking.  I expect us to average 7 or so miles a day, which is way more than normal for me (and which is great).  Just a good break overall from the weights for 5 days, something I have not done for a long, long time in terms of taking a week off.

Notes - Very pleased with this effort.  Lots of strong work here.  That's definitely a lot of volume in 20 minutes.  6 rep sets were tough but my efficiency in the movements is improving each week fairly clearly. I can squeeze out one or two presses by pausing and getting tight in the glutes specifically.
