Wow its been two years!!! So after all this time, when my focus has been jiu jitsu, I've reached a point where I've decided to come back to Simplefit!! For a while at least. It started with my arms filling with lactic acid during a sparring session, followed by a lot of soul-searching and research w...

L3 D1 W18

15 rounds, quite happy with that.

L2 D3 W17 - 04:29 13 pull-ups in sets of 8,5 26 push-ups in sets of 14, 12 26 squats in a single set Back up to level 3 however... I've decided I really want to try and get into a habit of doing grappling (BJJ) twice a week, and the only way I can see this working is by me limiting my serious calist...

L2 D2 W17 - 5 rounds completed

Felt a bit weak!

L2 D1 W17 - 21 rounds

Starting to feel strong again

L2 D3 W16 - 06:11

13 pull-ups in sets of 6, 4, 3
26 push-ups in sets of 13,13
26 squats in a single set

Time shows I was right to drop down a level after my lay off!

L2 D2 W16

Completed on Thursday. Felt good. Off to do day 3 later today which will complete my first proper week for a while. Still not back to grappling yet though after my injury, so will still ultimately have to find a way to incorporate both into my routine without over training.

Start at one and you won't have to wait long to find your level. Good luck!

Sadly had a recurrence of my groin injury which has meant (or at least been an excuse for) taking a couple of weeks off.

Returned to the gym on saturday and decided to drop back down to level 2 given my lay off.

L2 D1 W16 - 17 rounds

W15 L3 D3 - 09:21

16 pull ups in sets of 6,5,3,2
33 push ups in sets of 16,13,4
33 squats in 1 set

My simplefit weeks have been generally taking longer than a week of late, want to try and get back into a routine of doing it 3 times a week.

Haha well I've said it now. Last night : W15 L3 D2 - 5 rounds (although I accidentally only did 6 squats in my first round, instead of 16) A good cardio workout in particular. Went to grappling straight after my workout which felt fine until the last five minutes when my arms gave up on me. May have...

So after my last post I strained my groin in grappling. As a result I took a week off training but returned on Friday.

W15 L3 D1 - 14 sets

Felt slightly unfit after my week of nursing my groin (sounds weird that doesn't it?).

W14 L2 D2 - 5 rounds completed, nothing exciting to report. W14 L2 D3 - 04:55 13 pull ups in sets of 7,6 26 push ups in sets of 13,13 26 squats in 1 set On to level 3! Couple of points to note: - Week 14 has taken longer than a week, due to my being a bit lazy on a couple of occasions, so was pleasa...

Had a few days off due to laziness and a dislocated finger. Back to the gym yesterday.

W14 L2 D1 - 22 rounds

Quite happy with that given that I felt a bit tired.

W13 L2 D2 - 5 rounds completed without difficulty, no pain in elbows any more on day 2 it seems, which is great. -------------------- W13 L2 D3 - 5:27 13 pull ups in sets of 6,5,1,1 26 push ups in 1 set 26 squats in 1 set Pushed myself harder than usual and didn't rest for as long as usual.
