Record setting temperatures happening around the Pacific North West and it just keeps getting hotter. Finally settled in after several weekends of packing and moving stuff into storage. Trying to stay cool as possible. Can't remember the last time I've taken as many cold showers as I have lately. Got in my sprints this morning which was still in the high 80's outside, 5 bursts at 20 seconds each time.
It has been a tough process and the stress levels are starting to die down a bit. We managed to finally finish things and Wednesday is officially the last day of renting our first home together. It's bitter sweet but good things are on the horizon and time to save up again but this time for our own home. The last 4+ years have been a hell of an experience.
Despite the scorching heat and all of the move being done, I've been getting in some workouts that are more of mini workouts (while still doing sprints 3x a week) and doing them for a few minutes to exercises throughout the day. After taking stuff to our other place and packing up storage yesterday, I managed three short workouts that actually went pretty good and didn't wear me out.....
3 Rounds of 10 Rollouts w/ the Power Wheel and a Power Wheel Bear Crawl as a superset
5 minutes of Picking Up & Dropping my 50 lb Sandbell
The final workout was 100 Reps with a 30 lb Kettlebell
Didn't want to go crazy because of the heat and the work we've been doing but still eager to keep myself fit lol. Today on the sprints wasn't too bad and didn't feel like I was dying but I'm glad I did them in the time I did, it's supposed to get up to 105 today and there's no way in hell I'm doing that when it's that hot.
If you live in the PNW, stay cool, drink water consistently throughout the day and get the most out of life. Even in the middle of a heatwave, there are some awesome things to do. Be safe out there and stay hydrated.
