The original intent was to go to the pool for an hour, train for an hour, and gym for an hour from 7-10. A haircut cut this short (pun absolutely intended...), so I ended up swimming from about 7:20-8:00. Parkour training was good, I worked up my right handed speeds nicely (a technique I've historically had trouble with), did some wallruns and precisions, some underbars and cats. Mostly I was just exploring the university as this is the first time I've actually examined the campus properly, and I found a lot of good spots. I've spotted some options for diving cats and cat-to-precisions, pretty much everything except arm jumps (minus one or two big ones) and decent precisons which is coincidently what I think are my weakest movements. I'm sure more options will present themselves as I explore, and also begin to pick out precisions and arm jumps in the environment. I arrived at the gym a little late and did the following workout, which was not what I had intended, but I was still happy with it considering the previous sessions and the preceding week.
Rope x 2
25 xPistols each leg
2:30 Wall sit
25 Pistols each leg
30x Wall sit
25x Burpee chin combo
15x Climb ups from arm jump position to support
10m shimmy in support position
4x Tabata sprints
15x Climb ups from arm jump position to support
10m shimmy in support position
4x Tabata sprints
The intended workout, and probably much more effective, was:
25x Climb ups from arm jump position to support
10m shimmy in support position
4x Tabata sprints
Rope
25x Pistols each leg
2:30 Wall sit
25x Burpee chin combo
500m Ergo sprint
Repeat.
Only other notes I have is I feel rather tired, and I hate tabata sprints. Hate them.
Night y'all. Train hard.
Edit: Forgot to mention, I can't do pistols properly. I though it was a calf flexibility issue, although after talking to some people at NatSock theres a possibility it could also be to do with balance. I think I might work towards pistols anyway - just practicing them will address any problems, flexibility, balance, or otherwise. As it was, I did them off a bench, ass to heel on the right leg, and only to thigh-parallel with bench on my left leg, as it wasn't strong enough to do the full rep.
