Wednesday May 28 |
| Shooting 1:50:00 [1] | |
| |
| went to the outdoor range just with another commitment that day had to cut it short. Initially had a tough time setting the windage as the winds shifted and were changing speed quickly. Once I set it shot some standing which started out poorly, but got better. had to use electric tape on my cheek rest to make my eye align with my front and back sights better and this helped once I figured this was the problem. shot more prone and once I knew time was running out shot more standing. Had to wait for a cease fire to pick up my target so late to the gym. shared the range with retirees. |
| Weightlifting 1:30:00 [2] | |
| |
| did some running drills to warm up, and next to leg work including lunges, step ups, Worked on the upper body with push ups, shoulder pulls, rotator cuff, plyos ball, etc. This time the right arm was better not so sore and had more strength probably due to holding an eight pound gun for almost two hours plus while shooting prone a lot of my body weight is on the left elbow. |
| Running 32:00 [1]4.0 mi (7:59 / mi) | |
| |
| all the more time for running. Long day since the range is a bit of a drive next time I am going much earlier cut myself way to short on time since it was going well. |
