Time to re-focus on work and lifting.
Skye, congrats on school being over! Do you mean FOREVER or just for the term?

You’re killin’ the front squats; have you tried Zerchers?

almost a month. pretty good.
Sooo, my gym’s been closed since Wednesday. I suspect this coming week will be the same.
Meanwhile, I’ve been keeping busy with sprints, plyometrics abit of TBT with the weights that I have and lots of dog walking(it still counts).
Yeah it all counts - and most peeps can probably do with a break from the heavy weights to give their joints a rest. My gym’s only shut for Christmas, Boxing Day (26th) and New Years, fortunately, but to be honest I’m only really doing rehab stuff until Jan.
Wish I could do plyo but my knees and ankles object strongly to jumping up and down. What sort of stuff do you do - box jumps and the like?

Yes, box jumps, jump squats/lunges, ladders, lateral jumps and the like. For upper body, I just do push up variations and some chins. I don’t know what else to do for that.
Today, I ran some bleachers/stairs. The pup beat me fair and square. She really keeps me on my toes. When I’m slacking, she takes it upon herself to pick up the pace.
Boxing Day…haven’t heard that name in a while :-H
