Sun 12/9
Still bothered by leg cramps & muscle "tightness" scrapped todays regular WO, (deadlift/dips, turkish getups) went & had a massage.  

Felt good upon returning..
5km slow jog working on imaginary barefoot technique, nice surprise how easy this was, only stopped because inner thighs became uncomfortable.. sprint back last 300m.

FWIW- I have occasional bouts of severe cramping. A few times I've had to drink salt water. When I remember to put a little salt in my food every few days I have no worries. This is dependent on my activity level. In winter, if I don't eat bacon/salt and potassium, everyday  :o. My abdominal wall especially, WOW!

Might an occasional banana cover this as well?
Not for me. Everyone has different needs.

Used to get regular nightly cramps even when eating gluten free, can't recall them eating this way besides cramps that possibly could be attributed to the odd cheat. :-\

Thurs 16/9

Deadlift  60kg/5reps 100kg/5reps 140kg/3reps 160kg/1rep 170kg/1rep 180kg/1rep

PR Zone 15min
Deadlift 125kg 5/5/5/5/4/4/28reps
Weighted dips 40kg 5/5/5/5/4/4/28reps

The chain broke on the makeshift dips belt i've been using, (my old regular weight belt with a chain wrapped through the buckle) luckily the chain was long enough to continue. Probs need to shell out more $ for something proper, too fiddly even without worrying about weight falling on your foot. :(

PR Zone 15min
Turkish Getups 8.5kg
Left 5/5/5/5/5/25reps
Right 5/5/5/5/5/25reps

Situps 50

Sat 18/9
Jog 10km (Lycra'd up) @ an easy pace (1hr), sprint last 300m through the park.
Thinking about doing a half marathon at some stage if I can get away with minimal training. :-\

Tomorrow & the next day will be rest days, maybe a little Oly practice, working on flexibility etc.

Nice programming!
Just an option to throw out there, the mil press/row pair, try a Pendlay row. It's a clean pull off the floor, MUCH more explosive and allows some deloading between reps. They're FUN!  ;D

Thanks for finding an example, can't play the video yet while at work.

So tired today, usually OK by lunchtime next day, 1-2 reps per tabata interval over & over to/past failure :(
