Here we have young Freddie. He's young. Young young young. He runs around and jumps super high and sprints up the stairs. Seriously, watching him run up the stairs is like witnessing a feat of feline athleticism. He's a little panther. Or a puma. He's solid and fast. That vertical leap is pretty amazing. Reminds me that Molly and Kevin are old cats. They waddle up the stairs. Senior citizens. GET OFF MY LAWN!

Day 4 of Hell Week. This one is called "CRAWL", which is a movie... I just verified SPLIT is too. So... ??? This one was hard. Like harder than the last couple of classes. I liked it. I was able to run, so that was good too. My HRM had some issues... Maybe it needs a "reset?" I have no idea what that could mean.

So it's hell week. Basically a bunch of different, presumably harder, more mixed up and random workouts with different themes, and different set ups and rotations. This one was called pulse, probably because of the unrelenting pulsing squats. Also "run for your life" because the poor people that started on the tread block basically stayed there for 35-40 minutes. While I only ran .38 miles, I rowed easily over 6000M. The poor souls that started on the floor did Pulsing Half Squats and burpees for a full 20+ minutes. So, everyone had a different workout, depending on where you started today.

I didn't get a bike, so I started on the rower.

3G PULSE

Rower and floor switched back and forth. We were doing work when the treads were running and transitioning while the treads had their walking recovery.

PHS = pulsing half squats.

90 sec row for distance
75 sec PHS
1 min AO row
45 sec PHS
30 sec AO row
45 sec PHS
1 min AO row
75 sec PHS

Then back to rower. This was straight rowing, no switching. We didn't have to do a recovery row. We were allowed to stop.

90 sec row for distance
1 min rowcovery
75 sec row for distance
1 min rowcovery
1 min AO row
45 sec rowcovery
45 sec AO row
45 sec rowcovery
30 sec AO row
45 sec rowcovery
45 sec AO row
45 sec rowcovery
1 min AO row
1 min rowcovery
75 sec row for distance

Then we stayed on the fucking rowers, switched with the Treads.

90 sec row for distance
75 sec run for distance
1 min AO row
45 sec AO run
30 sec AO row
45 sec AO run
1 min AO row
75 sec run for distance

Then for the last 90 seconds of the class, we switched again, back to the floor, for 90 seconds of PHS.

And so it begins. Hell Week.

So. We're going to be getting solar panels on our house $$$$ ((And)) we're going to be replacing ALL OF THE WINDOWS on our house $$$$$$!!! I am infinitely afraid of being house poor and not having money to travel and buy new outfits and do all of the fun stuff I like to do. ALTHOUGH our current windows are so bad we can feel the outside wind on the inside. This is bad. Solar is modern and will eventually save money as well. I don't know. Seems like a lot of cash outlay and I'm NOT all about leverage, so setting these things up on payment plans is causing me great consternation.

So. Knee was feeling pretty good last night and this AM... decided to be cautious and ride the bike. That was OK, but there were lots of squats and leg stuff today and I felt it "catch" toward the end of class. I think I'm OK, but whatever. More of the same shit, different day.
