#WorkoutOfTheDay

First some strength: Back squats!
20 reps at 60% of 1RM, which is 52kg for me.

Building up this was:
10 @ 40kg
15 @ 50kg
20 @ 52kg

Then the party started with the #workout "Dee Dee"

5 rounds:
2' AMRAP
* 12 kcal Echo Bike
* 10 Front Squats (with 20.5kg)
* Max Bar Facing Burpees
* 2' Rest

I hate burpees. So much.

#WorkoutOfTheDay

First some gymnastics:

That actually went quite well. I'm surprised :p Last round wasn't that fantastic though.

So I scaled it to
* 10 Squat Snatches @ 7.5kg
* 15 kcal Bike Erg
* 30 V-Ups
* 10 Squat Snatches
* 30 V-Ups

#WorkoutOfTheDay

First went to do some PT exercises, then the #wod

First part was bench press, max reps at 50@ of 1RM. That was 30 @ 31kg. Then max reps at 50% of that weight, but my partner was lazy and didn't want to switch the bar, so we used 20kg. Topped at 31 reps, because arms tired.

Then the actual #workout, "Knightbrace":
5 rounds of
* 1' max double unders
* 1' max push-ups
* 1' rest.

Switched double to single unders, and push-ups on a bar. Finished 110+25, 130+20, 150+18, 143+21 and 140+18.

These people are gross...

From Drilled News
 
"What if instead of countries there were just a bunch of regions controlled by corporations? Srinivasan posits. Ah, "disrupting" democracy with...feudalism! I'm sorry but as someone who reported on cleantech during the dot-com boom and watched startups "disrupt" everything from laundry to taxis, making all such services worse for people and more profitable for one annoying douchebag, it's hard to take these ideas seriously.

And yet, we must, because for years now Thiel, Andreeson et al have been talking about their disdain not just for democracy, but also for the United States, the dollar, the rights of anyone they deem beneath them, and for the very idea of a "common good." And because they now have an enormous amount of control over not just the U.S. government but several others, and are moving to enact their plans.

...I think it's tough for some folks to wrap their heads around the idea that there are people out there who aren't just self-interested, but actually see self-interest as a virtue. Who do not in fact want to be in a society with you. Who genuinely don't care if they harm the public in their pursuit of whatever they want because they believe they are past such concepts as "the public interest," that they have evolved beyond such things. That there are folks who think feudalism and colonialism are the future so long as they're enabled by AI and crypto, that eugenics is a good idea that just got a bad rap, that if you're smart enough you can cheat death, and that most people are too dumb to know they're serfs.
This is the ideology we're dealing with, any strategy to reverse course must take that into account."

#WorkoutOfTheDay

"Patser Uurtje" or .. I guess you could translate it to "Gym-bro hour" or something like that? :p

First build up to 1RM max bench press. Maxed out at 62kg, which is 10kg more than my previous ;)

Second was 4 sets of
* 10 dumbbell floor presses
* 10 bent over dumbbell flies
* 45" plank hold.

The floor presses were done with 2x17.5kg for the first, and then 2x20kg. Dumbbell flies with 2x6kg, and the plank was 1x without added weight, 2x with 5kg plate, and 1x with 10 kg plate.

In general, very happy with my progress :)
