Great workout.  HS work felt like good progress.  Hips to rings is still a struggle, I really struggle to string more than one good one together.  Dips felt stronger this week.  Everything was tough but went well.  Thanks!

Amazing how I struggled with double unders after getting a leg pump from the squats.  I had to do pretty small sets.  Snatching went well.  Hip thrusts were really hard at 135x15...fought for the last 2 reps.  Step ups were hard with 15's too, harder for the left leg.  My left leg could barely do 15 of the hip thrusts with 10#'s.  My neck pulled and low back as well with the single arm kbs, not bad, it was really more of a reminder to brace better.  The leg whips were a mess for me.  With the left leg planted and right straight, I got a hami cramp in the left.  Then when I switched legs I could feel my left low back get tweaky.  I realized how my back fell into extension and what a struggle it was for me to keep a straight core and glute engaged.  The second round I did them with a bent knee and seemed to have more success.  Thanks!

I wasn't able to workout yesterday because we had an appointment after work that was important.  Prioritizing has been rough lately.  It would be easy if I didn't have to show up at work to get paid ;).  I had to start this workout pretty late in the evening and chose to do the bike/core intervals first in order to try and not disrupt my sleep.  Wow was the core work tough after 30 seconds on the bike.  Great challenge, 3rd set was definitely the hardest.  And I just still can't do a legit star plank without either bending the top or bottom knee.  Handstand work went okay today.  I was happy to make it as far as I did on the 5 attempts at 25 feet.  But I should be able to do better.  That is my prevailing state of mind today...feeling like I'm under performing and beating myself up for it.  Working on it.  Hips to rings was absolutely terrible.  Lots of rolling my eyes at myself.  Had a few good ones but lots of flailing.  And everything else was hard.  I'll be back at it tomorrow and hope for better results.  Thanks!

So good to feel like myself in the gym again.  TTB felt great today.  This got grippy fast.  But was fun and I got a good workout.

I was able to walk and turn around and walk back 5/6 times in a row!  So exciting to get some control building with this.

Thanks!
