Finally a quick workout!

Too much work gets in the way of working out. This week has been especially bad. I was able to squeeze in a 2000m row (7:53) on Friday before I went to work but its not as satisfying as going to the Langley Box and sweating it out. Saturday afternoon, however, I had myself a nice little WOD in my Enforcer Box. Flying solo is fun because I crank up my old Mariah Carey CD and go at it. Here`s what I did today:

500m Row 1:50.3
50 Double Unders
50 Sit Ups
50 KB Swings
50 Goblet Squats 20lbs
50 Weighted Walking Lunges
50 Push Ups

On the DU`s I did 14 consecutive (double-single-double-single) counting, of course, only the doubels as one`s. Then I did 6 consecutive DU`s (without the singels in between), twice! Thats a first for me. I think it`s easier to do a DU on pavement than on a ju jitsu mat :)
I split up the squats and the lunges doing 30, 30, 20, 20 cuz my knees were hurting.

I`m not a big fan of movies. I hate sitting in a theatre or on the couch. But from time to time, movies work for me. Like this opportunity to work two 13 hour shifts on a movie set. No, not acting or being famous but directing traffic and keeping it away from the set for 1 minute at a time every 20 minutes or so. And getting paid double to do it. Boz Productions is shooting Stan Helsing, a spoof horror flick on Van Helsing, in Langley, no less! This movie brings all the classis horror characters together including Freddie and Jason. Anyways, I dont have any insight on this movie, it`s just what I`ve been up to over the last 48 hours.

Nice row time Jill:) The double unders sound awesome too. I haven't been able to get the doubles without a single in between yet. Sounds like you are staying good and active. Are you still biking lots? Is Patrick in town? I haven't seen you in soo loong!!

Double pay - how do you resist that:)

Hopefully see you soon.
