7 minute jog....fucking fire drill went off
32 minute jog, felt decent, starting to see signs of certain aches so going to maybe take Thursday to just bike and row
Did some OH pressing and face pulls
30 push ups
sit up test 1 minute: idk the pace i need to go so i just decided to go for the full minute at an even pace and ended on 28. So i got 28 today and I didn't feel too worn out, i felt myself starting to break down but yesterday when i did it by 26-28 i was flailing and shit and was burnt out by maybe 40-50 seconds in. I did another set after but cramped up a few reps in and considering the jump i made just from yesterday to today, by next Saturday i am hoping to be good to go. One thing i did was some hip flexor stretches and stretched my quads which are amazingly tight.

What are your goals these days? I've been way too focused on myself to keep up with anyone else.

Same kind of run as yesterday except got booted from the track because of the kids 10 mins in. Went on the treadmill for 30 mins @6.5 mph
Probably over 4 miles total.
Gonna do basic back and bis with push ups and sit ups.
Only did db rows and pull downs. Left wrist has a sharp pain, I could barely hold onto the 80lb dumbbell.
Sit ups was trash: 28 in a minute, 29 with my arms flailing around.
My quads just crapped out on me and hopefully it's because of the running beforehand. I did flutter kicks afterwards and push ups.
I need 38 which is fucking stupid because sit ups are harder than push ups and I only need 30 push ups. This test is literally meant for smaller people which is why there have been officers in my general area who have gotten their asses kicked on calls. Oh well, I'll just try to increase it by 10 by next saturday.

So the plan is to get to about 235 for the test, right now avg weight is 248.
So I have a little over 2 weeks.
As much as I don't want to but I think i will need to do a morning and night workout. Night workout just being a jog, idk if it'll be 2 mile sprints or what and push ups and sit ups.
I also went shopping and I am going to eat a lot better.
Bfast is 1 packet of oatmeal and 2-3 eggs
My lunch and supper will be split up at work since I cooked everything so late.
I bought taco bowl things and I put beef with taco seasoning in some of them and deli turkey, chicken and gouda in others. I will split those up along with jerky, cottage cheese and chiboni yogurt.
It's more food but hopefully my performance will go up so I can have a faster natural cadence.

Yesterday 30 min jog with back and bis
Today
1hr 10 min run.
Had to stop on the track about 15 minutes in because the kids went on it so I headed to the dreadmill.
The first run was 1.7 miles
Second was 4.7 miles.
6.4 miles.
Nice run, my performance is coming back since I've been eating kinda shitty the last few days lol
Oh yeah on Monday work was so shitty that I logged 29k steps which is over 15 miles throughout the day.
Feeling decent going to hit some bw stuff after work.
My main concerns are sit ups, ive always been shitty at them.

Yeah haha I was expecting 1.3 or so.
Movie Review
Summer of 84
Basically typical movie of a serial killer in the neighborhood and a group of kids suspect it to be their neighbor so they do investigations etc etc.
What typically happens in movies like this(for instance the shia labouf one) happens except the ending is way better. There isn't much to say but when you get to the police station scene you think ok this movie is over and that was anti climatic but thank god it continues or else it would have been a terrible movie. If it ended where you think it does then there was just no feeling of they are fucked when they go into the killers house to search the basement considering he is at a festival. Overall it was a good time waster, idt i would need to watch it again but still decent.
