I got sick and took a few rest days this week.  All better now.  So good to workout and feel like myself again.  I get out of sorts when I can’t workout.  This all went well.  Felt more of a struggle on the left side with the step ups and left felt weaker with the clamshells.  That banded hip flexion exercise is for real, lit up my hip flexors.  Thanks!  And happy new year!

I really will move on with the Manna progression next time.  I used marc to assist me on the behind the neck pull ups vs a band (I can’t figure a band and pulling to behind the neck out).  At least I can pull to behind my neck with an assist.  Everything else went well and better than last week.  Thanks!

It’s been a crazy week and that made getting gym time so much more valuable.  This was the perfect workout for the day and it felt great.  Air is cold and I felt a tad wheezy, the only time I feel asthma is breathing heavy in cold air.  I upped the height for the step ups and am proud of how I did.  Good stuff.  Thanks!

I did the v-l-v third and was still able to get a couple reps, woohoo!  The supine bench was my first time doing that and definitely felt it in a different place, posterior shoulder?, pretty cool.  I could not could not lol figure out how to use a band AND pull behind the neck on the pull ups.  Probably pretty funny to watch me try though.  I tried without a band and my shoulders just could not pull my weight like that.  So I did regular banded tempo pull ups and that was still hard.  The high pills were weird for my right shoulder, it clicked and slightly painful on the eccentric.  But I was way better on the second set.  Felt super light and easy on the left.  Good stuff.  Thanks!

Sled drag was 100# D ball rev roll

Push was 100# D ball push

53# kb for bear drag

35# kbs overhead

70# kbs for farmer carry


I think we have settled into a time of year where using the sled/farmer carry outside is getting a little crazy.  It was in the 30’s and pouring rain.  I’m tough enough, I just feel like I’m getting too old to have to prove it lol.  I must say though, the switch to pushing/pulling the D ball was legit.  Have you ever rolled one of those forward for very long?  It lights up a lot of things.  

Doing the V to L after the HS/FL work, I couldn’t get all the way back up to the bar.  I really love the kb bear drag, much more challenging with the heavier kb this week.  Fun to do something new.  My glutes feel this one the next day.  

I will do my last workout today.  But no pressure, I know you have a life too.  Thanks!

So excited to have gotten a 17s hole on the parallettes.  Huge breakthrough even if it was just once.  Also getting close on the V to L, quads were a bit crampy today.  The rest of this was an epic arm pump.  The plank and ring to chest holds were tough.  Definitely felt like a worthwhile time in the gym.  Thanks!

Great session, felt like work :).  Last round of the B series got a little messy at 75 and 115, may have been a little bit too heavy.  Ant tib raises are pain and I bet I’ll be feeling it tomorrow too.  The seated good mornings were interesting and a great stretch for my hips.  Thanks!

I’m sure this isn’t news to you but my body seemed to learn it today- the paralette HS teach balance to come more from the shoulder than the hands.  It’s harder lol.  This is a legit arm workout, it’s hard to type after it.  I’ll be lucky if I can throw the saddle over my horse.  Was barely making the 6 and 12 on the last couple sets of the A series.  And I felt my abs on the push ups.  Shocked I could still press anything over head by the time for the top to top.  I was maxed out on the flies, totally spent.  I’m done with what you sent thus far and work the next three days so won’t be able to workout until Saturday.  Thanks!

Great session.  Could barely re-do my pony tail at the end.  Let me now how my body lever stuff looks, I know it’s shallow but was the best I had today.  Made some progress on height with the V-L-V though!  Thanks!

So I just saw your video of the vertical front levers and it inspired me.  I think I’ve been trying to get too close to the floor and then I can’t change direction.  Will send you a video next time and see what you think.  The ‘A’ series was a for real pump.  The last set felt like max effort on the barbell.  And I did the push ups as quick singles.  Wide pull ups felt stronger than regular grip.  Arms are totally shot now.  Thanks!

Great workout, some total body soreness the next day.  I couldn’t do the wrist curls with the barbell because it really irritates my right wrist. DBs were better.  Loving the track we’re on.  Thanks!
