2010 Fitness Goals

Here they are, I'll mark them off when complete.

40 Sets of the MaxVo2 -
80 Sets of the MaxVo2 -
RKC Snatch Test -
A successful Pond Hockey Experience -

You know, I don't really set goals. I had to think hard just to get these!

Basically, I want to feel better everyday...and get better at what I do to feel better.

WOD 12-30-09

1 Mile Stationary Bike (Run, Rower etc.)
30 Slam Balls
30 Swings
Repeat 5 times

For Time:

Forgot to track my time - it would have been bad. I was a bit lazy to start. This is why I make myself to workouts that have a certain structure or time constraint...ie. MaxVo2, Tabata.

Then once you start a workout, you just keep going till it's over. Not a lot of though other than doing each rep as good as you can.

WOD 12-25-09 Max Vo2

Getting back into more normal type of workouts. The Knee PT stuff has gone as far as it can go. It's time to get back to regular style workouts with a few extra leg exercises thrown in.

The knee will never be good but I can't let that interfere with my pursuits...

Working my way to 40 sets

The deal with kettlebell and interval training is that you burn calories well after your workout is done. So any measure of calories is inacuarte.

Further, calories really don't mean that much to me but I might as well look into what style of workout and exercises give me more bang for my buck.
