Dedication

There have been many days where I have felt like skipping the gym, and ended up doing so. Since getting out of work today, I have fought with myself to just use today as my rest day and working out tomorrow. I went back and forth about 50 times, even sent John a message asking if it was okay. Buttttt instead of skipping, even after John's approval, I decided to go. This week has been long due to not sleeping well, basketball, my class started and work just got crazy. Needless to say, after all the fighting with myself (which I think is perfectly normal) I went.

L-Sit. Accumulate 3 mins w/ as pretty of form as poss.

-Did the first minute 20 sec on 20 sec off. Then the last 2 minutes, 15 seconds on, 45 seconds rest.  These were tough, but I didn't cross my legs but they definitely weren't perfectly straight either.

30 min AMRAP

60 sec Front Rack Hold 95#

30 sec hollow rock

15 KBS 35#

30 sec Overhead Hold 95# (jerk grip)

30 sec arch body hold

15 sit ups

-Almost got through 6 rounds, finished 23 seconds of the arch hold. The front rack hold was tough but didn't drop at all. I really worked on squeezing my butt and keeping my core tight. The hollow rocks I was able to do the whole 30 seconds. KBS felt easy at 35# and didn't break on any of these. The overhead hold sucked, this was my least favorite part! The first and 3rd round I broke at 20 seconds, but all the other rounds I was able to hold for 30 seconds. I felt my back arching in and my shoulders were giving in. I'm hoping that I did these right, with feet under my hips? Either way, that's how I did it. Arch body hold felt fine, my shoulders were tired more than anything else. Sit ups were smooth.

I took some time to stretch out and rolled out on a baseball. Glad I decided to go today!
