Did some very brief sprints on gravel. I despise running, but sprints are awesome.

Sitting leg lifts(hips and back at 90 degrees)

double leg x 10

single leg x 5/5

double leg x 10

single leg x 5/5

rotating single leg x 5/5

36" box jumps are far within my abilities. Most jumps were 4-5" over the box. The sprints hit my lower legs and feet in a way I am not accustomed to. I'll definitely continue sprinting, perhaps to the point of actually figuring out how to sprint.

Wall runs(I have recently been informed that these are meant to be their own workout. Sets as long as 10 min being the goal. Will work on this)

2x30s

1x40s

I found that I can do a full advanced tuck planche and hold it for about 5s or so. I ended up doing a bunch of them all day Monday and today. I'll video it and make sure before checking that event off the list, either way my next goal in that progression will be the straddle planche.

Wall runs, 3:04 total time, longest set was 60 seconds long.

Tuck Planche holds

3x3s

3x3s

2xhover

3 rounds of box jumps starting at 18" box, to 24" box to 36" box. 5 jumps to each level in quick succession.

Ran a mile and did just over 100m of asskickers in a few sets.

Getting far better at getting into the side splits. Still a bit away from full front splits, front splits with my left leg leading are still closer than with my right leading.

Good Stuff - wish I could do some of that stuff!

Thanks Chris :)

I can never seem to remember when I do sledge swings. I did 100 swings with my 12lber yesterday before running.

Did something quick to pass the time.

Bulgarian Dips

5x5

A few dip station swings, and then a bunch of hopping about and a handful of 36" box jumps.

If anyone has any good info on performing flips, handsprings, etc, then pass it my way.

total = 302, at roughly 1 shoulder touch per second that equals about 5 minutes total. It's actually closer to 4 than 5, but I'm just going to stick with my original goal of 600 shoulder touches, then I'll address meeting the 10 minute mark.

All of this comes after a reasonably tiring work day. I usually try to save wall runs and levers for days I don't have to work, but I didn't really have an option this time around.

Rear Lever progressions up to 1 leg extended either side. Finished off the lever progressions with 2 x 1LE front to rear levers either side.

Straddle L sit attempts x 5 (I can get into the position, but I cannot hold it for more than 1-2s without cramping up.)

Straddle L sit progression work and seated leg raises at various widths.

Messed about and tried to see where I was in the iron cross progression scheme. Answer: Not very far. I can do some flapping but that's about it. I'm sure I could actually go lower than I was, but I was having trouble keeping my arms locked out. My elbows have some serious hyper-extension and I'm not 100% on how to manage cross work and my hyper-extending elbows. I'm sure it'll figure itself out eventually, but I'm going to assume I do not have the requisite strength for cross work just yet. I have been told, and it only makes sense that, a decent front and rear lever are prerequisites and I don't have either just yet. Add to that my inexperience with straight arm strength. I'll see if I can't get a cross-dip setup going with bands involved at some point soon.

Did 3x5 Bulgarian dips afterwards

50/50 one legged jumps, 3ft distance

30 jumps over 18" box, 3ft distance

Almost forgot, I did some pinch work today.

2HP

120x3

130x3

140x3

150x3

160x1

170x several failures

160x hover

140x3

Passed 2x25's around my waist 10x's and did some Around The Worlds with 2x25's both ways afterwards.

I can still get my decently slick 45 hub off the ground righty and with some assistance lefty.

Still trying to figure out my ring support position. I have never really held my elbows locked like that position demands in any event or movement before. So much so that I begin to question whether I'm doing it correctly.

Worked up to closing my #3 righty once or twice, and a few RB210 closes lefty.
