Brought To You By The Letters WTF

     Tonight was rough. I didn't work out on my vacation time because of some family issues. I didn't want to let today to pass without doing it so I forced myself down into the dungeon. Not only is it hot out, but the humidity is also disgusting. We've gone well past soupy and into the stewy category of air quality. It was a little cooler downstairs, but not much and it was still muggy as hell. 

     I'm not sure if that was affecting my brain, but I totally lost count on the swings and the accessory reps on the second cluster. My mind wandered somewhere. I also couldn't decide what accessory I wanted to do, but I settled on Zottman curls. To top it all off, I didn't take note of the finishing time, but I can get a rough estimate from my cluster times. Here's tonight's work:

10,000 SWING KETTLEBELL CHALLENGE (35LB)

Each cluster tonight consisted of the following:

10 swings, 15lb Zottman curls x2

15 swings, curls x3

25 swings, curls x5

50 swings

Starting Time: 5:26pm

Cluster 1:

Time: 3:55 min
Rest: 4 min

Cluster 2:

Time: 5:05 min ????
Rest: 4 min

Cluster 3:

Time: 3:53 min
Rest: 3 min

Cluster 4:

Time: 4:01 min
Rest: 4 min

Cluster 5:

Time: 4:03 min

ENDING TIME: approx. 6:02pm

     If my addition is correct, then I came in at around 36 minutes tonight. It felt like I was moving OK, not super powerful or anything, but OK. My back was jacked up from sleeping on a crappy mattress this weekend and I could barely walk this morning. It seems to be doing fine right now, but the real test will be tomorrow morning. There's a funny little pain in my wrist while swinging, but I think that just may be normal wear and tear and muscles working that aren't used to working. Or it could be me just getting old. It could possibly be both. 

     On a quirky side note, my callouses are back and now big enough that they need to be sanded / trimmed to avoid being torn. I realize most women are not proud of calloused hands, but I am. I always have been. Strong hands are important. 

     Well, I guess I'll go throw some meat onto the grill. It's too hot to do any cooking inside. We bought some steaks this weekend to cook over the fire, but never got a chance to, so I might as well get them cooked tonight. Never waste good meat!
