Workout for April 20

I went to Monkey Bar today at 6 pm. First off, I don't like the huge number of people in the 6 pm class. I understand why there are a lot of people in that class. It's right after work. It makes doing the workout tough though. Especially if the trainer is new, which he was. Anyways, the workout today was very typical of Monkey Bar. Did about a 10 minute yoga warm up. Then did 5 minutes where you alternated between dips and a pull up exercise constantly. Then did another 5 minutes where you alternated between a body row and a push up exercise constantly. After that we did 50 power wheel roll outs followed by 50 power wheel pikes. Not my favorite one. I also biked to and from Monkey Bar (about a 2 mile round trip). I also biked to and from Harmony Bar to hang with Guy Corey and Palotti (about a 2 mile round trip).

Since I signed up for the TM, I've been thinking about the best way to train for this. Right now, my plan is to continue to go to MBar, but run to and from MBar. Also, I'm going to run and bike with Jennie. She's training for the Madison Ironman because she's awesome. I figure that will help with my cardio. After those workouts I'll do some type of MBar type of interval training. Also, after goalty I'll do some type of interval training and the same goes for after summer league. I just ordered an Ironman watch that is capable of setting up intervals. Here's to stepping up the workout.

PS - At the MBar, there are actual monkey bars. I tried getting across them at the end of the workout. I couldn't advance one bar. Each time I go to MBar now, I'm going to work on getting across the monkey bars and I'll let you know how far I get.
