So I mentioned that I am evaluating a TRX suspension system, by Fitness Anywhere, via a 12-week fitness program (FORCE). Today was Day 76.
After my long drive yesterday, I managed to get in a kettlebell and TRX workout. I was going to run also, but the heat ran that idea into the ground.
For kettlebells, since I need to strengthen my grip (noted after my trouble with the 32KG kettlebell) I did 20 minutes of 10 single arm swings per minute with the 24KG kettlebell. This was not particularly difficult, but by the end I did notice fatigue in my grip. So hopefully this nice long burn will help. And that's 10,582 pounds lifted in 20 minutes.
I also completed workout 1 of the TRX FORCE program week 11. This was another no-rest killer leg workout. Ya, that's another reason I decided not to run.
However, today was not as hot out, so I got in a 6.75 mile run, right before the thunderstorm. That's 67.5% of the way towards my goal of being able to run 10 miles.
The run was pretty uneventful, other than some technical difficulties with my iPod Touch. I found out that the iPod Touch interface is almost impossible to use when everything is soaking wet. Need to work on a solution for that.
After my run I did workout 2 of the TRX FORCE program week 11 program. Luckily, today was a superset on upper-body, which was good since my legs were pretty shot after the run. Also, happily, this is the end of week 11. Just one more week to go in the TRX program!
