I am really excited today’s workout was great. I just had a lot of energy today. I had my last meal last night instead of tonight, because I hate jumping into a training diet after a meal like that. So today I woke up did my normal Sunday routine and after lunch I went to my local gym. I started today’s work out with a run. Sure I knew I would be jumping a lot of rope today, but I just wanted to burn off some steam. After 30 mins on a treadmill I went and did the jump rope. I did 75/75/75/75/50/50/50/50. For the first time, I was able to most of the jumps like a normal person, no skipping. Full on jumping.
The Playlist:
I decided I would share my weekly playlist for exercising. Last week I listened to a single album the very cool Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse Present: Dark Night of the Soul:
For this next week I did an eclectic mix of pop/rock/rap. Since the exercise is going to get more intense I am putting a lot of music in the list just to keep me moving. It is a bit more pop filled then I would listen to in my car, but I thought that might help me keep moving. So without any further pontification:

I am really curious what kind of music gets you motivated. Go ahead and share your tracks. I will try and share each week the 20 or so songs I am rotating.
Yoga and Co-working.
One final thing I am excited about is the co-working space that I work out of is going to begin offering a yoga class in office once a week. I am looking forward to integrating my office into my project and use it as a catalyst to additional health.
Awesome man, I can't wait to get more music recommendations from you as we go along.
ReplyDeleteYoga at the office is something every company should offer.
Dude, I am really looking forward to hearing DTNS but I'm not very good at finding leaks of stuff. Did you use a torrent?
ReplyDeleteAlso, that N.E.R.D. track is bangin!
Yeah. I found it with a torrent. Make sure you grab a copy that is scanned by antivirus. There are a lot of bad torrents out there.
ReplyDeleteI like to listen to reggaeton!! I dance in between sets, makes the workout a whole lot of fun.
