Infinite Intensity. Monday Oct 26, 2010

Weekend saw nothing of huge interest training wise.

Little TRX, little kettlebell, little jump rope, little push-ups.  Nothing major, maybe 10-20 mins total, was really just playing around a little.  On the push-up note I managed to put down a single set of 20.  That was a first for me, elbows were in an easy position, still felt like a pretty sweet accomplishment on something that is one of my weakest areas.

I also priced out some new toys.  Looks like I can get set up with 90% of what I need for about $1500 (Cage, bench, 300# weights).  I also had a chance to look at mats that a few places sell.  Definetely considering some of these as well.  The cheap ones I got are nice and great for lots of stuff, but anything heavy has the very real potential to damage them easily.
