Active Rest Week and Some Light Bodyweight Workout

This week is my active rest week since I realize I haven't taken time off from the gym and weights completely for about 6-8 months since I started in February this year.

Monday was a bad idea to do weights. I usually feel energetic after a workout that wasn't the case. It's been happening couple times lately and I refused to listen. Good thing nothing bad happened.

Anyway for the past 2 days, I've been doing mobility, foam rolling, some light band works with glutes and arms.

Today I tried to move around a bit by doing some light bodyweight workout.

Superset #1:
One Leg Hip Thrust / Reverse body rows (bent legs)
3x20 @each side / 3x15

Superset #2:
Air Squat / Push Up
3x20 / 3x10

Fullbody Bodyweight Workout

I wasn't going to do any sort of workout, just some light activities, but I decided to power thru and did it anyway. I thought this would be easy, but it turned out that I almost wanted to give up in the middle of it!

Geez who knows? Maybe I'm already glycogen depleted that even a simple bodyweight workout felt like a drag to me.

Afterward I just had regular post wo whey with GV, no leucine since I don't think the intensity was as high as my usual workout with weights. I was sweating regardless anyway.

Hip Thrust -20x (3sec pause at top)
Inverted Body rows on dip station 12x
Back Squat w broomstick 20x
Triceps Dips 15x
RKC Plank hold -30sec
Ab Wheel 8x

Time: 3 rounds- 24 mins
