Will and I tried to work on pull ups prior to class but did not get very far. We were not moving that good this morning.

I wore my weight vest and really struggled through the warm up. Pull Ups, Burpees and Wall Climbs are just about my three hardest moves, especially with the vest.

I was happy with the results of the WOD. I completed all the push presses with 95 lbs and the weight vest. I subbed 50 jumping jacks for the double unders. I do the jumping jacks rather than regular jump ropes just to have the jumping coming from a different angle. Rather than straight up and down I am going side to side. I did all those box jumps yesterday so jumping jacks today helps spread out the wear and tear.

The weight vest really pulls on my shoulders and just creates a constant pain and pulling in my shoulders. I guess this is a good thing.

Below is another entry in to the “Burpees on the Minute” challenge. FusionDude got 12 minutes which I think is fantastic.

Here is another youTuber with their “Tabata Squats”

Yesterday morning, after and hour and 35 minutes of work I tried a simple overhead squat with a bar. Not too impressive unless you have ever seen me try this before and totally fail. For me this was a major accomplishment.
