Surprise! When I took a look at my schedule I realized it was time for rest week again since I am already done 7 weeks of my superhybrid. I have to admit though I was so put off by the I:A that I have not done a single Insanity:Asylum workout since I started this new round. I promise I will, I have to suck it up and stick with it next week to at least get an idea of what doing all 3 of the workouts simultaneously is like. Also, I need to make sure I don’t go too easy this week, I want to make sure that I exercise every day and don’t get lazy like I feel I did last rest week. Especially since I will be going away for the long weekend to Niagara Falls and probably will only be able to take the kettlebell to do some RKC while I am there.
Last rest week was a dogs dinner as indicated by this excerpt:
The plan, as it was, looked like this:
3×3 Clean and Press Ladders Plus Dice Roll Snatches
Core Synergistics
3×3 Clean and Press Ladders Plus Dice Roll Snatches
Cardio Recovery
Core Synergistics
Cardio Core and Balance
Yoga X
I think the revised plan will look like:
Monday: Off, coaching
Tuesday: Hills and Sprints
Wednesday: WOD with gymnastics girls
Thursday: Cardio Recovery
Friday: Core Synergistics
Saturday: RKC
Sunday: RKC
In reality, the week looked like this:
Monday: OFF
Tuesday: Hills running
Wednesday: Part of ARX
Thursday: OFF and went to North Bay for Camping Trip
Friday: 5 RKC Ladders 34543
Saturday: 100 pullups, 100 box jumps (24″), 100 Push Ups
Sunday: OFF 5 hour drive home
The following week I was off work sick for 3 days with a 40 degree fever and then did the Warrior Dash on the weekend.
Rest week, then, as it has been in the past, is often an unwelcome break from the schedule and a pathetic excuse to get out of doing much of anything. So I am resolving right now to work the schedule as promised:
3×3 Clean and Press Ladders Plus Dice Roll Snatches – Skipped! Actually scheduled rest according to my new Firstbeat Coach.
Core Synergistics – Done!
3×3 Clean and Press Ladders Plus Dice Roll Snatches – Probably will do Crossfit or shceduled rest.
Cardio Recovery
Core Synergistics
Cardio Core and Balance
Yoga X – Probably will do Tony Fountain of Youth, I can take my patriot box with me to Niagara and do yoga in the room.
