Two mile treadmill run - 13:55. Was pretty sore this morning and this time was only 11 seconds off my PR, so I'm pretty pleased.

Nick, you have been kicking ass on here for YEARS! I was just curious, how old are you?
Very sore from my workout from yesterday--chest, delts, glutes, quads! Vinyasa yoga for 90 minutes, maybe 30-60mins. very light work on the elliptical (better than sitting on my butt listening to podcasts,) and 20s on/20s off tabata-style of "bench hops". I saw it in Men's Health... Stand over a bench and grip both sides (palms flat,) then tuck your legs, put the weight into your hands and hop back and forth until you fear you're gonna take a face plant. ;-) I try to stay in the air for at least 1-2secs to put an emphasis on my upper body and core. Great total body exercise!
Pullups (various hand positions) and trx suspension training, flys, rows, one legged squats and LOTS of planks :-)
1 mile jog
" Cindy" AMRAP 20 min
5 Pullups
10 pushups
15 Squats
Got 17 rounds done
@Primal JessJane - I just turned 46 a couple of months ago. The best part is before I went primal, I was probably 50lbs overweight, not feeling good, not looking that good either. Changed to a mostly primal diet, and now I feel as good as I did in my 20's.
On to todays workout:
Five Rounds:
TRX Rows x 10
Divebomber Push Ups x 10
Vee Ups x 10
TRX Squats x 10
Pull Ups x 10
Dips x 10
Jump Rope x 50
Kettlebell High Swings x 10
24" Box Jumps x 10
24:34

5 mile run, max HR 136 bpm. Kettlebell class tonight, 40 mins of full on exertion
Did my first set of 20 rep breathing squats last night @ 225 lbs, holy crap what a beating. Feel great today though, definitely interspersing these with the lower rep squats from now on.
Let's see what's on the agenda this afternoon after work?
As many rounds as possible in 20 min:
Pull ups
Pushup (w/a twist for intensity)
Kettle Bell raises
Big tire flips
Then I plan to do a lil triceps specific training.
All time high weight 262 lbs
Primal since Spring 2012
Start PB Weight: 240 lbs ish
Current Weight: 220lbs ish
Goal Weight:190-200 lbs
All on a 6ft. 1/2 inch frame.
I can't wait to meet my abs for the first time in my life. We gotta lot of catching up to do.
I love this way of eating and hope to be able to help others.
