Run: 5 mins @6.1mph
Fire drill ugh
Run: 20 minutes@6.1 little over 2 miles then I decided instead of just keeping at 6.1 I decided to do a 1.5 test (non stop from after the fire drill)
1.5 time: 11:59.

Then the chest n tris workout.

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.

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.

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.

40 min jog, felt easy except I had mean pumpkin spice coffee before and hello heart burn.

Going to just push up and sit up.  Nothing major, I have some aches that I don't want to push.

Tabata
R1. 14
R2. 13
R3. 12
Total: 39

Abs didn't cramp up but there was 40 seconds between sets.  I need to go almost as fast as I can for nearly a minute straight to get to my goal and that's not happening right now.

Gonna do flutter kicks and get out of here.

Yeah it was cold lol

Did the walk

So this week is high volume for push ups and sit ups and speed work for my runs.  I'd like to get to about 80 reps of sit ups, 80 reps of push ups and do .25 runs in 2 minute splits. That's like 4.5 laps on the track at the gym so I will do 2 laps walking for my rest time and just keep at it until I crap out real bad.  Maybe get 3 miles worth total.

1.5 or 1.75 run doing .25 splits.

First few were about 1:50 to 1:53 and had to slow it down a bit to 2 mins

Push ups and sit ups using cards
Sit ups: 87 total
Push ups: 58 total

Not feeling the best today, I tried a mile run at 8 min pace but I cramped up which hasn't happened ed since I got back into it.

Going to stretch relax for the day and hit the stepper and more sit ups.

Standing cable crunches

Crunches on a bench with a 25lber in my forehead.

Gonna head out, do an afternoon walk and wod

4 mile walk

If i get my interview or offered the apprenticeship this week then I pretty much won't care about my fitness test.  Well if I get the apprenticeship I won't care to do it but if I only get an interview then I will.

Either way, after this Saturday I want to get into oly lifting.

I would keep 25 minute jogs every day and try to figure out a good oly program along with stretching and all that.  I will be looking at some oly books and seeing which one would be best, especially considering I am natty and most of oly lifters aren't.
