A while back I switched to unflavored vegan protein powder that I buy in bulk. The place was out so I got some whey, thinking it would be a nice little treat to take a break from the graineyness of the vegan powder. I was wrong. I can barely tolerate the sweetness of the artificial flavoring. I was almost gagging getting it down. I guess I've officially made that switch.

#workoutOfTheDay

An before-easter-dinner-at-my-family-workout to get tired and not care about possible drama...

First finding 1RM deadlift. Last 1RM was from march 2024, at 123kg... with the support of the coach I lifted 130kg off the ground today :D #PR

Then the fitness test "Cold Shoulder" which I have done two times before, but earlier I had serious shoulder issues so had to switch the burpees for bike erg - not this time :)

For time, 5 rounds
* 6 Deadlifts (60/80)
* 9 Toes-To-Bar
*12 Burpee Box Jumps

I dropped the weight to 70kg and switched the toes-to-bar for leg raises, and finished in 11'40".

Happy with the results :)

#workoutOfTheDay

First bench presses! Continuation of the max-rep-bench press, 1' rest, and then max-rep again @ 50% weight.

Added 3kg over last week, increased reps too ;)

28 reps @ 40kg, and 65 reps @ 20kg.
(last week was 26 and 36)

After that the #workout "Fleetwood Mac"

10 - 9 - 8 - 7 - 6 - 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1
* Devil Presses (10/15)
* 100m run after each set

I scaled to doing the devil presses with 9kg dumbbells (could have used the 10s but those were taken), and doing 200m bike-erg instead of running.

It went fairly well, finished in 12'.
