    1 hour's yoga in the morning.

    In the evening, I did maximum effort pull ups. My best effort was +30kgs, which was a personal best. The picture is how I attached them - 10 kgs on a scuba weight belt; 20 kgs in the rucksack.

    That's what I was thinking. The mountain biking sounded a lot worse to me as well!

    @drmwc - Matt, that's good advice on the shoulders as well. I tore my rotator cuff years ago doing pullups without warming up first. Totally recovered now but I'm cautious anytime I do pullups to warmup first and know my limits.

    As anyone that has seen my posts knows, I'm very boring and a creature of habit. Was doing my usual hour row today and actually feeling really good (and holding a 2:25 @ 20 SPM, which is a great pace while keeping the HR low at this stage of training for me) and at 45 minutes, my rower started showing Error warnings, my headphones dropped and all Bluetooth went to hell.

    Very aggravating to say the least. My body, for once, was cooperating nicely with 15 minutes to go and technology let me down!

    Got the headphones finally back linked and now, I guess, I'll go out at lunch and update the firmware on the PM5 (Concept2's onboard computer). Long overdue anyway. I've been needing to do this for a while. Just have to plug my laptop into it and update it.

    Oh, also, got a Lasko high powered "misting" fan finally. Things have been on backorder everywhere for a month. I'm going to need that bad boy for the outdoor Summer rows here in AZ. Even at 5AM, the temps can get up to mid 90s in the worst months. I'll need that misting fan to keep me from overheating.

    Thank you for pull-up advice. Unfortunately, no bands here so just going for lots of singles during the day lol.

    Did some deadlifts with some luggage I had around today. Nothing huge, as I have a knot in my quad/hips are a bit achy and I want to have a big leg day Thursday.

    Will be walking to drop off more clothing donations.

    Still in harder workout break. I stretched slowly for about 45 minutes today, slowly working on front splits again. Damn, these kind of stretches are amazing for the glutes. It feels like they are constantly sore.

    Hamstrings are sore today from DL-ing yesterday. Since I plan a heavy leg day at the gym tomorrow, to include squatting and DL-ing, today is cardio and core. Do not want to work my back in case it would mess my DL volume tomorrow. I am going to walk and try a sydney cummings 30 min ab workout today and MAYBE a HITT later if I slack on the walking. Little break from CX Work.

    Need to stretch a lot today.

    There are some over-achievers posting in here!

    I woke up late today so did a quick 2 mile run (walked for a 1/4 mile for warm-up, ran 2 miles, walked another 1/4 mile for a cool down). Didn't want to push it for another mile and be late for work. I'll get after it again next time...
