Oct. 4th, 2005 08:45 amStarted our morning workout today - we'll do Tuesday and Thursday this week, and then switch to a Monday-Wednesday-Friday schedule next week. Justin and I used to do a five-day program, but it varied on content, with Tuesday and Thursday being quick stretches and a Jeet Kune Do practice. I'm not sure if we'll go back to that right away, or use those days for walking or running.
We went pretty light today, but that is one of the keys to the "Framework Program," as I dubbed it whenever I first typed out this version of it. Earlier versions - which have explanations on how to do each of the exercises - are lost on dead hard drives or OS's or otherwise inaccessible places. Kind of fun as I tried to remember exactly what "trunk flexion iv" was at 5:30am!
I think I would have liked to be a little more aggressive, but I let Justin pick our starting schedule and, in most cases, the number of repetitions. With only 5 "partial sit ups" and 2 "semi push ups" he still seemed to struggle. We really don't push him a lot physically, and he pushes himself even less - most of his physical exercise comes from yardwork, and that tends to be more sporadic in both intensity and frequency; the rest comes from occasional bike rides and weekly in-line or roller skating. We are seeking information from his school about programs in our area - I think he indicated soccer, karate, and fencing as possibilities.
We did find a fencing school in the area - but Deb decided they are a front. She's not convinced anyone could base a business around teaching people how to build fences (which is what, it turns out, they do.)
