THURSDAY 12th MAY 2011
8x25 Burpees
3x10 Pull-ups
There, I've finally paid for my rest days. Was only really going to do the burpees, but had an urge to pull so I jumped on the bar for a few sets.

FRIDAY 13th MAY 2011
Strength Circuit
- 20 Burpees
- Pull-ups x20secs: A. Wide B. Regular C. Towel D. Chin-ups E. Hammer
- Dips x20secs
- Push-ups x20secs: A. Divebomber B. Wide C. Diamond D. Knuckle E. Regular
x5 rounds
No rest between exercises, 2 minutes rest between rounds. First circuit do exercises A, second do B ect. Gymboss is set so there is 10 seconds between exercises to get into position.
This is a lot harder than it looks on paper, as all the exercises are upper body, the arms are shot pretty quickly. Definetly worth a try if you're looking for new routines.
If anyone reading this does give it a go, let me know how you find it.

1st day back to training as normal today. New goal is to run 2 miles in 12:00 and 3 miles in 18:00, 6 minute miles for both distances. Also although I've already achieved 20 pull-ups, I feel I need to make doing the 20 pull-ups easier and more comfortable, as well as get used to the different variants of pull-ups.

CIRCUIT x4:
- V-Ups x20

New running trainers, and so got myself a blister a couple cm big. Not the worst I've had, but big enough for me to pause exercises that put too much pressure on the blister for a day or two until it's better. I am on 1,750 burpees at the moment, will resume them very soon, when the foot has healed a little.

It's funny, I've never had to break in a pair of trainers - boots yes, but not trainers.

THURSDAY 19th MAY 2011
Strength
- 25 Burpees
- Elevated OAPU: 6x4
- Pull-ups x3: 4, 6, 8, 6, 4
- A. Knuckle PU: 4x25
- B. Dips: 20, 15, 10, 10
- 25 Burpees
Blister is a little better, not done the full 100 today, will leave it for a Saturday 200 burpee session. OAPU is coming along nicely, did a few from the floor but they weren't strict enough to warrant knocking it off my list. Perhaps gtg will help, but I'll have to find a platform around the house to do them strictly off.

Pull-ups are as strict as possible, although admittedly the last pyramid had some quality issues on the higher sets.
