This morning, I woke up extremely sore, but I noticed something interesting… The only muscles that were really sore today were the ones used in the floor wiper exercise – abs and tensor fascia lata (top of the leg). But those were and still are very painful in a DOMS way. Back and shoulders were a little tight, but other than that, it was as if I’d been resting for the last few days 
I completed the 300 workout today in a time of 28 minutes 57 seconds. A full 2 minutes 45 faster than yesterday. I’m pretty sure it’s because I got through the deadlifts and the box jumps much quicker than yesterday.
Combining exercise with the great outdoors. Is there anything better?
Today (Sunday) was pretty full, with church in the morning, followed by my wife’s uncle’s 50th birthday. We didn’t get home until almost 6pm, so I didn’t have a lot of time to mentally prepare for today’s workout. Also, there was a lot of food at the 50th and I didn’t have time to digest properly before the workout. A couple of times I thought I was going to make a pitstop, but it was all good 
In today’s workout, other than the floor wipers and pullups, it didn’t feel as hardcore as the previous 2 days (but throw those in and I was wrecked after). I guess it’s clear what body parts are lagging for me! Maybe I should recommend this challenge as a way of figuring out what body parts you need to work on – just wait for the third day and see what’s hurting the most 
My lower back started hurting quite a bit towards the end of the deadlifts, so I’ll have to keep an eye on that. Pullups at the end of the workout were so difficult I could only manage 3 or 4 reps at a time and the last 5 I had to do one at a time, with a rest in between. I can shave a few minutes off my time just by getting better at pullups.
Feeling good about the next 4 days. Just gotta keep the nutrition and the rest up. Seeya tomorrow.
