mmmmm I love backsquats! And we did so many today! YAY!
My 70% isn’t that much weight, but I still felt the burn.
Backsquats on conditioning was limited cause we had to clean it from the ground, then put it up over our heads and onto our shoulders. But by the second set, I’m glad we had a lower weight, lol!
Since ringMU aren’t even on my “maybe this year” list of skills, I did 25 pullups, then 10 pushups, then 15 ringdips.
My WODies arrived yesterday so I was excited to get to use them today. Another girl got hers yesterday, too. Now… I haven’t used grips before, but I wasn’t too terribly impressed. It actually felt like they made it MORE slippery. The other chick agreed. That said, the instructions and many reviews say that they need to be broken in. So I’m gonna keep using them for a week or two and see if their performance changes. I feel like- they HAVE to get better, because there’s so many positive reviews. There’s wouldn’t be that many if they sucked, right?
I worked a little on toes to bar after the workout. I got one set of three that felt good, but after that I couldn’t get in rhythm and was sorta just flopping and flailing. I tried some with the wodies, and some without. I definitely had better grip on the bar without them.
