Fourth (and final) day this week doing bodyweight exercises. This time it was similar to Day 2, Legs and Core.
Side Lunges
7.5 minutes
I was confused by these quite a bit and kept wanting to just shift my weight back and forth. I’ll do better next week.
- one ladder of 8
- Total: 64 lunges
Alternating 1-Legged Romanian Dead Lifts
7.5 minutes
Got into a good rhythm with these and did a lot better than last time.
- one ladder of 10
- 15 extra reps
- Total: 115 lifts for each side (30 more than Tuesday)
Squats with 1 second pause at the bottom
7.5 minutes
The pause really threw off my pacing. Ended up doing a few less reps but not by much.
- one ladder of 11
- Total: 121 squats (-5 from Tuesday)
Side Crunches
7.5 minutes
These were almost bicycle crunches, just without the leg movement (legs are fixed at 90°). Afterwards I noticed I was pulling on my neck too much and had some neck pain for about an hour later.
- one ladder of 9
- 18 extra reps
- Total: 99 crunches
Overall
Was a pretty good workout. I need to practice my side lunges some more but I was happy with how hard I pushed on the other exercises. 7/10
The plan only calls for 4 days this week so I get to take a few days off until next Monday. I might try to get in a run on Saturday if the weather stays nice, I found a route that is just over a 5K and I’d like to see how I can do.
