A great, fun workout yesterday.
My gym has been holding outdoor workouts for several months now, well-distanced. I attend 2X-3X a week, and nearly always on Saturday at 10:00 AM. Yesterday, in temperatures below 30 degrees, there were 15 of us plus coach/owner Pam. I arrived early as I typically do (I live a short walk away) and she asked "What are your two favorite workouts?" Easy, kettlebell swings and anything else kettlebell, so I chose snatches. She wrote the answer on a piece of paper. As others arrived, she did the same.
So now the workout. For each selected exercise, we did 15 reps if it was two-armed like a swing, or 8 of each arm for single arm, like thrusters. Interspersed were block runs (all the way around the block, about 1/2 mile) a farmer's carry (1/4 block) and a goblet walk, 1/4 block. (You hold the KB shoulder level, away from your body, and walk the 1/4 blck.
Obviously, a looooong workout. It was wonderful Slept like a baby last night. At 66, I am glad I can still do things like this.
Have you done a favorite workout lately?
