Today's Training:
Hike: 2.5 hours with a vertical climb of almost 1000 ft This was a lot harder than I remember. Perhaps because I did this climb over a decade ago. Note* I will have to do this more often so I don't feel as horrible as I do now. hahaha
GHR: 3x10
"Frog" GHR's: 3x10. Move the footplate longer in the back and raise it to almost the top. One more hole should do the trick. Spread your knees wide to practically the side of the pads and turn your feet out as you externally rotate your femur. Bend over the front pad as if you were going to do a normal back extension exercise, then extend up and contract your hamstrings simultaneously. This should BOMB the glute/hamstring junction.
Reverse Hyper: 3x10
Suspended Good Mornings: 3 RM. Either the hike killed me or I was simply gassed. But my three-rep max was nowhere near what I am capable of. I didn't push it. I packed it in and headed home for a very late breakfast. Perhaps THAT was the reason...hmmmm!
