This was not a good squatting morning for me so my form was really bad on the wall balls. Each time you catch the ball you need to go down into a full squat. That just was not happening for me this morning. That’s how I was able to get a quick time.

I got in another 150 box dips bringing my total as of today to 1,700 leaving 1,300 to go to get the 3000. There are 7 possible workout days left for the year. That means I would need to do at least 185 a day. It’s still something I can do. Doing actual ring dips is not going to happen this month so I will need to readjust that goal.

I actually slept for 5 straight hours last night so maybe my insomnia issue is over. I wish I could have slept more but it seems I just toss and turn.
