Cold weather training this morning.
Warm Up: x 2 5 burpees 5 pop ups each leg 5 declined pushups 5 dips
Did some light training in Bethesda from 11:00am to 12:30, during which I gashed my shin (hitting a rail of all things).
Workout: Look ma', no legs (couldn't run due to fear of re-opening the gash, so the WoD was out)
Trying to work on endurance by continuously moving from exercise to exercise for six minutes. Hard to do without using legs.
Walking across parrallel bars back and forth using only arms (body was hanging between bars). Done for 1 minute. Pullups without kip for one minute. Situps holding a 25lb medacine ball for one minute. Repeat. Managed to walk back and forth on bars a total of 8 times. Did 15 good pullups w/o kip. Did 50 situps. (Really tried to focus on keeping a strong supported back on the way down, so they were like also doing negatives with the weight.
The workout ended up really just working strength, because I wasn't winded, just tired. Hopefully I'll get the leg well soon enough to start using it again without fear of reopening the wound.

Unfortunately I have little to report today. I was up early and out the door to run errands, then did my 9 hour workday. The only things of some note were that I did 15 pushups every 30 minutes while I was working at my desk from 2 to 6, and I taught the sparring class and the advanced sparring seminar this evening. Can't wait till the leg is better. Watching people spar and teaching is great and all, but I get so antsy.

Another day with very little training.  Taught martial arts for 5 hours. Between classes did 3 sets of ... 10 lateral raises with 10lb kettle bells in each hand 5 no kip pullups on a 2.5 inch square bar (hurt the hands, but you have to use what you've got i guess) 10 upright rows with a 10lb kettle bell in each hand hold v-sit up for 30 sec Not much, but it's something. Before sleep I'll stretch my legs torso and back for 20 minutes.

Taught 1 hour of martial arts.
Leg felt ok, so I actually did endurance/ stamina work today!
Did 30 minutes of stretching this morning (legs and back).
Warm up: 3 rounds 10 squats 10 push ups 10 pull ups 10 ... entry into kong pop ups? I would bound off the right leg, then push up hard with the arms in an attempt to pop up off the box as high as I could while trying to force my hips up as high as I could.
Workout: Obstacle course Course consisted of 2 vault boxes, a tic tac, a diveroll onto a 3 foot tall platform, a vault over a 2 foot square box that is on a 2 foot tall by 6 foot long platform
one 4 minute round two 2 minute rounds one 1 minute round
Shows how bad my stamina is. I could go 30 seconds hard, and then I would start to gas. In the first 4 minute set, I took a 40 second rest just to get through it.
I plan to do the APK WoD tonight, as well as stretch for another 30 minutes. I'll post that up later.

Depending on your gash and your poor conditioning you might actually want to consider regular two a days. Again, depending on the schedule, they would really beat you down fast but after a day or two rest you will probably come back kicking butt (if you're not already sore, lol).

Thanks for the heads up Steve. When I say gas, I mean I am no longer sprinting, but jogging. I think breathing had a lot to do with it, because I didn't get sore, just ran out of energy. With a short rest I was ready to go again. I'll start trying oding a workout before work, and doing more sprint work.
Did the WoD
Did 4 rounds of ...
Pseudo-Planche pushups using Perfect Pushups as paralletes(sp) for 1 minute 13, 11, 11, 8 Frog planche on PPU's for 1 minute Wall Handstand lowering to L for 1 minute Tuck Planche on PPU's for 1 minute (ended up shifting to frog planche on round 3)
Arms are dead. Abs are ok. I think I might do a few more of the handstand to L. Wasn't happy with progress, and the abs aren't sore enough.

15 minutes of stretching legs and back
5 rounds of 15 pushups 20 leg lifts 20 squats 20 seconds wall handstands
I really want to do the WoD, so I might try to do it ... right now. I think I've found a good substitute for pullups finally.

It's 2am on Thursday, January 31st.
I did the jan 30th WoD tonight b/c it sounded like fun.
20 minutes for rounds
5 pullups 10 pushups 15 squats
Did 14 rounds plus the 15th round of pullups and 6 pushups
Did the first 2 rounds of pullups without kip, the rest were done with ankle only jump with right foot. I am doing pullups on inside of door frame in closet under stairs. I am so glad I have found something to do pullups on at home.
The pushups were horrible. I did the first 4 sets of pushups straight. The rest I had to do broken up into 5, 3, 2 with 5 breaths in between sets.

Bad day. Only did some stretching. I think I am coming down with the flu that my fiance had.
I wrote down today's WoD, and I will try to get to it tomorrow.
