Hit the alley again...



Quick and fun this morning since I wanted to do a little bit of what I did yesterday but still had to get the yard work done...

Alley (1/10th of a mile) work:
1/2 of the alley Backward Bear Crawl
1/2 of the alley Forward Bear Crawl
2 uphill alley runs

yard work

Stretch

If anyone is looking out their back windows while I am busy bear crawling up the alley I am sure there is some laughter and confusion but just like the Honey Badger - I don't care.
At worst I will bring a bit of amusement into someone's day

Upside down Abs

Really dialing in the ab activation/isometric during a handstand is quickly becoming  a favorite along with HLRs

In fact I did a brief workout on Saturday and in hindsight it was a single set of HSPU (set of 5 reps) with "maxed" out abdominals that has had my abs sore for two days - fun stuff

Another circuit day today

prep - Foam Roller, ASLR, T-spine, hips, rolling

3 Circuits of: 
HLR x 5
HSPU x 3, 5, 3
Pull-up +45# x 5, 5 - Chins +90# x 3
Pistols 16 kg rack x 3+3
Uneven push-up x 5+5
16 kg Snatch x 30+30

If the reps changed for an exercise it is noted
HSPU was on and off of being able to really dial in the abs

2 circuits of:
dips +45# x 10
Bridges x 6
