“I ran across your blog and noticed the great
content on your site. I recently have
been researching
and writing about how staying physically fit can be extremely
beneficial to
people going through cancer treatments. Exercise can be a
conduit for healing
of many different diseases (including cancer) by giving back
energy levels,
reducing stress, creating better blood flow, etc. I truly

tremendously. This

Ok, so Gina and I went to the gym today! Imagine it, there is one on the main island, but it's a 30 min ferry ride, so we generally just prefer to workout at home.
Anywho, since we were there and had the equipment, after todays wod, we did the original HERO from yesterday, which is
1000m row
50 pull-ups
1000m run
50 push-ups
Holy hard!! My arms are still jello! Yesterday was bad enough, but this kicked butt 🙂
Took me 54 and some change, I erased my time by mistake, whereas yesterday took 44. My pullups were assisted but the rest as rx'd.
Def got the burn today!
Oh, and that was for 3 rounds… 🙂
4:35 as rx'd
4:41, I think. I'm 99% sure that was my time for 5 rounds, but it seemed so fast I did another round just for good measure. Total time was 5:35.
I only used my 10 lb. dumb bells for all exercises, so maybe that's why it went so fast.
3:58
11:33 as Rx'd
I've never done a hanging power snatch or any move like it so I had my husband watch me and make sure my form was correct. By the way deadlifts are my nemesis, I hate them.
4:01
4:14
As RXed.
Same time as last year but with heavier weights.

4:30, did 30 for squats and deadlifts, and shoulder press instead of snatches, my back has been sore. Hitting the elliptical now.
5:31
Plus 3 mile run
5:03 – I think? Everyone wanted to talk to me during this workout, and I kept going, but lost track of my rounds. So that was at least 5 rounds. Maybe six. And I messed up my knee pretty good yesterday, so those squats might not have been the best form.
5:31
6:34. Used 45# bar for deadlift& snatches,20# dumbells for front squats. Had issues with my form on snatches-sometimes did more like a push press but tried as best as I could for my first time doing them.

8:00, 75# DL, 40# Snatch and 6 squats (40#) each round.
5:00, thrusters for snatch
Made this up today. But messed up and did hand squat cleans instead of snatches. And did everything with 20 lbs total dumbells. 3:45. Least I did something:)
