    In my 30 minute session today, my trainer kicked my butt with something he calls "Crazy 8's". Appropriate name! I am going to miss our solo sessions, but I still have the benefit of his training 2-3 hours a week with the small group training sessions!

    3 sets of the following 5 exercises for time - 8 reps for each and 16 total for the lunges (after warming up of course):

    • Zurcher Front Squats
    • Racked TRX Rows
    • Deadlifts (personal record today - even if it was only for 4 reps)
    • Dips (table dip, no rings...AS IF I could actually do that one)
    • Kettlebell Lunges


    2 minute break between sets, and the weight went up significantly for the Zurcher squats and deadlifts.

    After THAT was over, we had 5 minutes left in my session so we headed back to the squat rack. I did back squats for 5 minutes but there was a twist Every 30 seconds I racked the bar and did 5 air squats.

    When those 5 minutes were over my time was done....and I was done

    First time I've done the Zurcher front squats, that totally gets around my shoulder/elbow flexibilty problem and I could do them properly

    Hopefully I will get to ride tomorrow, planning on an easy ride - it is supposed to be in the 60's and not windy!!!!!!
