Workout Notes:

  1. Thoughts on the workout in the “musings …” section.

  2. Go to the burn on each mvmt. 

  3. Use heavier weights (if needed) to achieve burn.

  4. Use lighter weights (if needed) to achieve burn.   

  5. chinup alt (bands)

  6. If I'm being honest, I'm prob going to do pull-downs today. 

  7. Take those v-ups at a super slow speed. 

  8. If your tailbone says "no" to V-ups, go ahead and switch for situps on a stability ball. 

  9. You are not on the clock. Do not perform this workout for time.

  10. Each round is one exercise after the other. These are not straight sets today.

  11. Do the extras today!

Musings …

I said I wouldn’t go live Sunday night while posting today’s workout, but I couldn’t help myself. Just a couple of brief thoughts.
