Here’s how my “global day” 5K jogging will play out:

First minute and a half:
Wow, I feel great, I bet I can run a 10K!This is going to be FUN! 🤪

Immediately followed by:
Jesus, how long has it been? 🥵

At 2K:
Ok! Nearly halfway. You can do it.

At 3.8K:
Why am I doing this to myself? 😩

The last kilometer:
checks distance every 200 meters or so

At 5K:
Finally! acquired! Take that, reformed couch potato! 💪

x5:
1️⃣ Jump-over-bar burpee x10
2️⃣ Australian pull-up x9
3️⃣ Banded backward lunge & knee drive x10/side
4️⃣ Bench dip x10
5️⃣ Sumo deadlift @ 42kg x8
6️⃣ Over-head squat @ 5kg x8

It's been more than a year since I quit following a CrossFit program and today I wanted to test my performance on exercises I haven't been doing.

Before I couldn't do 6️⃣ and now I can! 🎉
I'm more confident in 1️⃣ too.
Squat mobility has played a big role within the past year.

s1m0n4,
@s1m0n4@ohai.social avatar

@ubo it's interesting because in addition to my inconsistent attendance to animal flow classes, I opted for a greasing-the-groove approach with squats.

Our laundry dries in a rack like the one you can see in the picture. In order to improve my squat mobility, I took the resolution to squat every time I hang underwear from the bottom lines.
This silly thing took its time, it was horrible at the beginning 😭, but it worked wonders in the long run!

@s1m0n4 Clever idea and even better, if it worked so well!

🗣️Many of you share my passion for promoting health and wellness. However, access to fitness resources isn't equal for everyone. Socioeconomic factors can create significant barriers.

I knew that running the morning after circuit training wasn't such a good idea.

This week brought a lot more NEET than usual. As a result my training involved fewer sessions too, though I didn't skip circuit training yesterday evening.

So I set out for a long run, because I didn't run on Tuesday and I won't have time on Sunday either, but I couldn't even reach 8 km before my legs and my mind gave up.

Splits [km, pace, elevation] 1 6:24 2 6:31 3 6:38 4 6:23 5 6:28 6 6:22 7 6:22 8 6:35

@bomkatt @s1m0n4 Agreed. I’m in the process of giving myself that very lecture, opting for cycling instead of a run.

@mlawton@mstdn.social avatar

@s1m0n4 To look at your splits, you wouldn't even know it was a struggle. Good things still happened, even if there is a damper on the run at large.

@dhester I tried hard to do a daily walk, even if it's only inside the apartment (during a bad winter's day). Agree, it does wonders for our mental and physical health.

Panel members focused on youth fitness and mental health. Short answer: it ain't good.
