(blech!) 5 rounds of max double-unders in 1 minute (30 second rest in between)
31-16-17-21-23
I hate double unders. They end up being so painful, as the tips of my toes and the front of my shins are all red from being whipped with the stupid jump rope it’s like pure torture and it’s really not satisfying […]
There’s a saying in pediatrics, “kids are not just little adults.” Well I beg to differ. If we dress them like mini-grown-ups, and don’t let them act like children, well maybe they can just skip the whole childhood bullshit and get them straight into the good life.

We’ve been setting workout goals for 2008, so I came up with a few to start with.
-5 unassisted handstand push-ups touching the top of my head to the ground (I absolutely 100% refuse to do that forehead to the ground thing, that goes against 12 years of training and I simply will not compromise my […]
The gym has an abbreviated schedule this week, so we went and did our own workout at the beach. It’s sort of a half-Angie with some running. Unfortunately it was 50 degrees and very windy. But we stuck with it. Forgot the stop watch - IDIOT!

50 pull-ups
400m run
50 decline push-ups (feet on 18 inch […]

400m run
25 one-armed overhead walking lunges, 20lb dumbbell

20 weighted pull-ups, 5lbs

400m run
25 wall ball, 8lb medicine ball

I’ve never done weighted pull-ups before. I tried a few with the 15lb dumbbell and eventually decreased to the 5lbs. One-armed kettlebell swings hurt my back. Sometimes I wish I were heavier.

So do you have to buy your shoes a size bigger so they can hold the bottom of your pants? How does that work?

Today’s workout was a lip buster. Literally. I smacked myself in the upper lip while doing a push press and cut the inside of my mouth. I’m clumsy.
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 (reps)
overhead squats 65#
push press 65#
p-bar dips
18:36
Halfway through the workout it occurred to me that the guys were using the weight racks for their 75# barbells, and meanwhile […]
