Ab series went great.  Box jumps were hard!  Kinda funny how long it’s been since I jumped 2-footed to 24”.  Once I got it in my head again it was fine.  Spent most the time on the TTB.  Feeling good!  Thanks!

Did this after a lot of heavy wheelbarrow pulling and poo shoveling.  Felt like a good farm morning.  The jump split squats were not really jumps with the db’s, could barely get off the ground and couldn’t do the right leg without a break.  Body weight was better but still hard.  Single leg hip thrusts burned too.  Will be feeling this one.  Felt great to snatch :). Thanks!

Damn did I get behind on blogging.  Been focusing on getting my horse under saddle.  Since she could kill me it does seem to take a bit of priority.  Trying to at least sit in the saddle everyday and gently let it evolve.  Anyhow, what I remember was this workout went well and the prowler lit up my legs.  Was a bit sore in the glutes the next day.  Love that thing.  So effective.  Thanks!

Outdoor day

Wind wing foiling

No clue how long I was out there but it was enough to make me hungry and sore all over the next day.  Such a good time.  If the wind hadn’t died we would have kept at it until we could hang on anymore.  Thanks!

Kicking up on the parallettes went a little better today after watching closely how the guy in the video does it.  Still not as much control of balance in my wrists as I have in my hands.  Vertical body lever is hard!  Easier if I start and the top and come down and back up.  The whole A series was challenging, step ups the worst.  Thanks!
