So Cold!

| | Comments (81)

We have to take this indoors pretty soon as it is getting too cold to play outside. I thought there would be more people today since we all got an extra hour of sleep, but only 4 of us showed up.

For time do 10 rounds of:

10 pullups (assisted)
10 walking lunges (5 each leg)
10 pushups
10 squats

The times ranged from 16 to 18.5 minutes. Not too shabby. Assisted pullups were done with either jumping pullups or jumpstretch bands.

If it stays this cold we probably won't be going outside much more. We'll post something by the end of the week letting you know about next weekend. The cold is forcing us to look really hard for our new space. We'll keep you posted.

Five rounds for time:

Run 200m
20 squats
10 pullups

Times ranged from 9 minutes to 13 minutes.

We played on the rings afterwards and did some skin the cats.

Drew and I threaded our ways through the nearby New York Triathlon, to work our way through a pullup/thuster countup:

With a continuously running clock, do:
1 Pullup the first minute
2 Medicine ball thrusters the second minute
3 Pullups the third minute
4 Medicine ball thrusters the fourth minute
etc.

We made our way up to fifteen minutes before pansying out, then starting the workout again, this time with clapping pushups and hanging l-sits.

Go Back to Sleep

Sadly, today's forecast for Central Park begins "A steady rain this morning"; as wet workouts haven't worked terribly well for us in the past, looks like we're off for the week.
