Well, I just had to work out today despite the doc telling me I ought not until tuesday… I just cut out the quad/hamstring intensive stuff and made the whole thing considerably easier. The goal was to get my heart going a bit, not to beat the crap out of myself with insane metabolic conditioning and make huge strength gains. Anyways, Crossfit prescribed this, and I did the following:
For time:
100 normal jump-rope
21 L-Pull-ups (1 set of 10, 1 set of 6, 1 set of 5 w/20-30 sec rest)
21 Handstand push-ups (2 sets of 10 w/30 sec rest)
50 rope jumps
15 Pull-ups
15 hundred-pound military presses
50 rope jumps
9 Pull-ups
9 hundred-pound military presses
60-second handstand hold
30-second L-seat hold
10 minutes stretching
Broke a slight sweat, got my energy up and boosted the morale. It’s been almost a week since I did anything you could consider a workout and I was sick of not training. I’ll chill tomorrow and jump back into the game on tuesday (Monday being a rest day for crossfit, I’ll probably do a slow hour on the bike or something to get my leg used to working again…)
