Yesterday, Friday, had minor surgery - no exercise other than stretching in the AM. Took a nap in the afternoon.
Today, warmup up with a single set of 40 kg, 2-handed kettlebell swings and some bodyweight-only windmills. Boy, swings are about the perfect exercise for anything.
Walked for 1 mile with the bar on my back loaded to only 65 lbs., and with just a single stop at about .55 miles (as close as I can figure). I think it's very important to be able to go the distance and then some easily with a lighter weight. This was clearly my best day so far in this regard and I still need to be able to go an entire mile in one set, but this is the first time I've covered a mile in only two sets so we'll be happy with the progress.
At the 1 mile mark, put the bar down a second time and did a Zercher carry for about 1/7 mile (about .15) back to our house. Even with only 65 lbs., this was getting old by the time I was finished..
Onward and Upward
