Lafayette Special


After eating and drinking too much at the new restaurant Lafayette yesterday, I felt I had some penance to do, and coordinated with K for a morning workout. We headed to the fencing room and did the following.

2 times:
- Lunges (about 30 feet - guesstimate)
- bear walk (30 feet).

While walking, throw a 10kg medicine ball forward from your side (twisting motion), alternating left and right (the other guy walks backward and throws it back). 2 times 30 feet.

On your back, do a situp holding the 10kg medicine ball above your head, then trhow it to other guy who is standing up, he throws it back. 15 times.

Situp position with trunk raised (45 degrees) and feet held by something, holding a medicine ball, twist from side to side. 80 times (twisting on one side counted as once). We had a 5kg and a 6kg ball, so we exchanged after every 20.

10 Arianes on each foot (total 20, see description of an Ariane here).

10 minutes slow paced rowing.

Good workout. I looked much worse than K after the lunges and bear walks, but by the end of the workout we seemed in similar state. He rows much faster than I do even at a slow pace, but the good thing is that he taught me some technique.
