Rest/Make-up/Skills


Make up day, guys- or time to practice on those problem areas. A good one to focus on for today- if you're out of ideas- is the GHD situp. It seems that most people struggle with the idea of keeping knees bent as they go back, and straightening/locking out legs as they come back up. This allows you to use the large band of muscle in your quads to help propel you up. Speaking of improvement/problem areas/etc. check out this great resource from Jason A. on goal-setting. http://www.mindtools.com/goaleffc.html
Don't forget your 62 pushups! Speaking of pushups- check out our third pushup pic- complements of Mustafa! I believe that's on a tram, yes?

62 in the biz-zag!

Today's GHDs were killer, given the soreness of my back muscles from yesterday's squats. But, "no pain ..." no pain ... no pain ... that's right, just keep saying that ....

I'm sorry that I just missed Kim's muscle-up clinic! :-(

Kim Ball said...

62 done. Oh sure you're in pain because of the 350 million squats we did. But look on the bright side . . . it's gonna hurt so much more tomorrow! And if there are stairs in your future . . . sucks to be you. Good luck!

So i'm sure everyone is familiar with synchronized swimming...but have you ever seen synchronized squatting? The first few minutes of tonite's class was f'n hilarious. HAHA!

Kudos to the Tustin crew as well. Hope you guys make it to the group workout in Signal Hill on Saturday!

61 and 62 done--forgot to post. I'm glad I didn't do those squats, have a Half Marathon race this weekend--would have been limping to the finish line!
