On one hand, today’s workout appeared to go well. But my left glute (the problem one) feels, well, sort of “full”; the wall it feels after a good set of monster walks. No pain though.
Yep: I replaced my loop for my “monster” walk sets and OMG.
You can see how stretched out my used ones are. No wonder the walks felt easier.
As far as the workout:
downstairs: I focused on “no bounce”; complete reset.
10 x 134 4 inch.
10 x 134, 10 x 190 low
5 x 225 low (felt easy). 10 x 225 low (not so easy)
10 x 255 4 inch (again, reset ..not a touch and go)
2 x 280 lb 8 inch; bailed.
10 x 280 8 inch; wonder about my last couple of reps: too much lumbar?
Anyhow, this was a challenging workout and left my legs quivering.
Then I had a nice 4 mile (lower Bradley Park) 58:27 for 4.03 (57:50 for 4). Nice weather and while it was painless, I did feel the “full glute.” I have to pay attention to that.
