wow this is the longest non-vacation journaling gap i can remember. did get some exercise the rest of last week but nothing to write home about. i think the deck-of-cards workout plus some jumps and stretching is going to be my go-to, especially until my jump ropes arrive. it works as a warm up (the combo i did on saturday -- diamonds=bed dips, hearts=band pull aparts, clubs=lunges x2, spades=toe touch crunches --  took about 15 minutes and i broke a light sweat) or as a more challenging workout (could come up with a harder set of exercises, e.g. with burpees, or go through the cards multiple times).

fight on.

y'all it is going to be hard to work out here. might need to shift to AM workouts because i'm going to have some late nights as a matter of course. tonight i'm just going to drink.

set my alarm for 6:30 AM, let's see if i can get myself out of bed and do something meaningful.

didn't have wifi all weekend, hence no posting.

friday
- nada, or, i forget

saturday
- moved house, nada

sunday
- ultimate frisbee x 1.5 hours
super fun. wore tennis shoes but it didn't matter, this is a really low-key game. i was the best player on the field by a fair margin and i haven't played in 4+ years. throws were off, field sense was off (although that had a lot to do with the game being completely chaotic -- only a few of the players knew what a force is), but wind was surprisingly good. and i'm not all that sore.

- GMB wrist routine

today
- hiking/rock scramling in the mountains x a while
flew up to the far north, about 15km from the afghan border. did a lot of walking around plus a trek up and down an incredibly steep pitch to see some check dams. my shins and calves are going to be sore tomorrow.

- GMB wrist routine

Holy shit! First time in 108 years! Somewhere, wherever he lives now, Steve Bartman is weeping just a little bit harder than everyone else around him.

super blown, thought i was going to get to play ultimate tonight but getting into the diplomatic enclave is stupid. i'm fucking american, but i can't even get to my own embassy without some kind of extra stupid fucking little access card thing that i don't have yet. i don't even need an american card! could be british, or french! bah.

gonna go do something less fun in the gym now.

EDIT

ACHES/INJURIES: none
SORENESS: none
MENTAL STATE: hungry but otherwise fine

- warm up
jump rope + joint circles + walking mobilizations

- skater jump x 20,20

- split-hurdle jumps x 4 sets
from that video adarq posted of the woman high jumper in the park. looked like fun. kind of uncoordinated but i'll keep doing these from time to time.

- one-step RVJ x 5,5

- GMB wrist mobilizations

- superset x 3,5,7,5,3
-- pull up
-- dip

- lunge x 72,72
did much shorter steps on the second set. great glute pump, kind of felt it in posterior knee. will stick to longer steps.

- stretch

just got "home" from work (still living in the hotel) and am both starving and having a little indigestion. no workout tonight, gonna just order some straightforward room service, do a little more work, and pray there's something watchable on HBO Pakistan.

SORENESS: glutes a little, abs, traps
ACHES/INJURIES: right wrist during handstands, damn it
MENTAL STATE: good

- warm up
superset x 5 of jump rope 60s + joint circles

- handstand practice x a couple
my wrist is going to prevent me from really working on these. shit.

- jump rope 120/60 x 3
tough on grip, left hand was cramping on the last set. might make this the focus for a while: building up to 12 rounds of 180/60. should be easier once i get my own ropes, which are stuck with the rest of my stuff in lahore.

- stretch
