My neck just wasn’t loving the vertical negative body levers so I worked on HS and that went well.  Left leg struggled more on the split squats.  Stoked I was still able to do strict hspu’s!  Thanks!

Sooo, a horse mowed me down.  Not one of mine but a neighbors.  Thankfully I still had my riding helmet on but I definitely got some whiplash and am glad that’s all that happened.  Anyhow, my body just refused to handstand.  All anterior neck related.  I felt fine doing everything else.  Tempo DLs also got my thumbs a bit.  SL rdls are less stable on the right.  Hope you are well!  Thanks!

This workout was a burner for me.  Maybe I’m just a little run down but I felt whipped.  Also have not been getting in the gym like I mean to.  My whoop said I burned nearly 300 cals, avg HR in the 130’s and max of 161.  All the movements went well.  Felt a bit heavy on the box jumps but I’m never exactly a light ‘bounded’.  Went horse back riding after and feeling well rounded tired tonight.  Thanks!

Much improvement today.  Arms are smoked the next day.  It’s a lot of pulling and twisting.  Thinking it’s making me stronger :).

My arms got smoked fast today.  Reminded me of the feeling of burning out on kipping pull ups.  It’s a lot of grip fatigue too.  Still had a great time and learning tons every time out.  Thanks!

Felt sluggish today after night shift and doesn’t help that is still look like winter here.  Also call room bed kills my bad hip.  Plus I think horse back riding flares it up.  But all this hip work has got to be exactly what I need.  Got the pain/tightness under control with some mobility but did the Cossacks with body weight only in this workout and focused on maintaining tension in the bottom.  Lunges were a valid challenge, hardest part of the workout.  Going painfully slow on the front lever progression to maintain perfect integrity, so hard.  Thanks!

Just felt a bit sluggish today, no good reason.  DLs actually seemed to get lighter as I went.  The strict press was all out effort to get 12 on the last set.  Left leg weaker on the hip thrusts as usual.  Thanks!

Solid session.  Happy to be making progress even is so slow on the L-sits.  Back felt super tight the night after this one but I really think it’s the horse back riding.  Thanks!

Crazy weekend, we had to take the horses to the emergency vet hospital at the state vet school so the baby could have an umbilical infection surgically excised.  They are doing well now but still there.  Learning so much through this process and dying to have them home safe.

This workout felt great.  I love how it’s all
still hard and challenging but doesn’t leave me hurting.  I did the dips in the bars and they seemed harder for me than the rings.  I rode my neighbors horses the last few days too and legs are so sore today, good stuff.  Thanks!

Struggle with HS today.  DL’s felt great and kinda woke me up.  The suitcase DLs are a great challenge, so much of it is just balancing the bar.  I could barely do 55# SL hip thrusts on the left (easier on right), I had to pause after rep 6.  Interesting to observe that weakness.  Thanks!

Been a big yard work week.  And finally some warmer weather.  Felt good to burn a little bit.  This is a great combo.  Felt like a solid effort and made me hungry and sweaty.  Thanks!
