Day 54 – Like the Easy Days!

Still in our final countdown, only 6 days left after today!  Morning workout was a Circuit Day, but I had to make some of my adjustments for my knees again.  The first set was Burpees, Box Jumps and Kettlebell Swings, which I had to adjust 2 of the 3.  I have a modified Burpee that I do, and I replace the Box Jumps with Step-Ups instead, then Kettlebell Swings are fine indeed!  Second set consisted of Mr. Spectaculars and Hippity Hops.  I’m fine with Mr. Spectaculars the way they are with Kettlebells and all, but Hippity Hops I have to do like sideways Step-Ups honestly.  From there the third set was some side bridges, Kettlebell Keg LIfts and Bicycle Crunches all of which I can do.  The only adjustment is sometimes for my knees I get an extra matt for padding for the Keg Lifts, but that’s it.  Had a relatively easy time with it, but my workouts are starting to taking a little longer than I’d like having to start with 54 push-ups first thing before warming up, just sayin’!  Feeling good with it though, enjoying the muscle development in my chest and arms!

From there went to my usual errands which all went off without a hitch, including my afternoon cardio which was a 60 minute ruck with a 45 pound pack.  Back and shoulders were a little tired from the pack but that is pretty typical with the rucks for me.  Got 2.43 miles in on the nature trails which was a good clip for me…tried to keep it going today and felt like that was a success!

Master Class was just a quick video today asking for an After Action Report, which was interesting.  They just were looking for feedback for the Master Class portion of the program, so got that all filled out.  They also informed me in that video that for the next 6 days I get to do a video each day, preferably 1 on each prong of the program.  Not necessarily looking forward to recording myself, but again, time to just run with it because I need to stretch my comfort zone more!  Public videos here we come!  I’m not sure where I’m going to get them posted, they may just be in the TLC Facebook group, or in the Deliberate Discomfort group.  If I can figure out how to get them on here I will see about adding them later!

Got some good reading in, some more catching up on bible studies, and the rest of the day went very well actually!  Like the Easy Days!
