I started with 5-mins on the treadmill and then did:

B2: Barbell Bent-over Row - 100t/4, 100t/4, 100t/4, 105t/4
C1: Dumbbell Single-arm Overhead Squat - 30&15/4, 30&15/4, 30&15/4, 35&17.5/4
C2: Dumbbell Incline Bench Press - 32e/4, 32e/4, 32e/4, 35e/4
D1: Plank - 120sec, 120sec, 120sec, 120sec (all 45-degree)
D2: Reverse Wood Chop (on floor) - 37.5t/4, 37.5t/4, 37.5t/4, 40t/4
Bodyweight Matrix (modified): 48 squats, 24 lunges (each leg) - repeated twice

HRM: 95mins, 436 cals, Max: 138 (78%), Avg: 106 (60%)

I really love that one-armed dumbbell snatch. And yay, managed to do 40-lbs, even with the left arm. I did feel a little like I was out of gas when I got to the bodyweight matrix though today. I looked back at workout #1 and I pushed the heart rate higher overall. Not sure if that’s translating to less effort though. I do think that this is where I would do better with HIIT on the treadmill at the end as it would force me to keep a specific pace. I most definitely was not moving as fast as possible with the bodyweight matrix.

So I haven’t quite decided what I’ll do this afternoon. It looks like rain again so I might continue working on my math upgrade. I was thinking about going to Vineland and picking up the peaches, however, that would commit me to canning them tonight and I really don’t want to. I’ll just get up early tomorrow and start the process fresh. Maybe get the jars/canning equipment out of the crawl space to speed things along in the morning.
