Notes - My appetite is just killer lately.. will bring that weight down soon. Really enjoyed this workout.. kinda tossed in warmup work in with the 1st circuit.. also some rest from vertical work (no handstands, pullups). Very happy with the pushups, good form. For the Pull complex I used bands anchored from door bottom instead of like usual from pullup bar. This is actually pretty important as I have noticed a weakness in shoulder depression (especially while sleeping my shoulders tend to shrug). Pulling the bands from this low angle works the shoulders/scapula under load in a depressed retracted (down and back) position that felt very rehabilitative. This structural issue has come about since I have not been lifting anything heavy off the ground (deadlift). So I will be pulling from a low angle and trying to get in some more swings and deadlifts of some sort.
Hit the bag few minutes (5-10) of punches, kicks, elbows, knees = fun
Notes - I held a fl straddle for a bit - cool. Also I'm close to holding adv tuck planche which feels like a gigantic step. I am going to GTG with the Front Lever - I think it lends itself well to this and I want to own it. Surprised that I'm doing so well at this weight.. if I was 170 below and could maintain strength my numbers could really be good....
