Fitness Weekly Discussion
What have you been doing lately for your own fitness? Try out any new programs or exercises? Have any questions for others about your training? Want to vent about poor behavior in the gym? Started a new diet or have a new recipe you want to share? Anything else health and wellness related?
Last update was Monday. I think I would have been good to go in by Thursday but I've been trying to get some walking and jumprope in on off days, and I might have been a little too into the jumprope on Wednesday that killed my calves
Very chill for today so I stayed to do a few more sets than the recommended 5 sets:
I did tell the coach that I wanted to slowly work towards being able to do pull ups. Back in the day my family had one of those doorway pull up bars installed and I was never consistent enough with it to really work on my grip strength, let alone being able to pull myself up from a dead hang. So he had me just... hold onto the bar in a dead hang, and work on being able to actually hold onto it for 30 seconds before slowly moving on to the next step. I remember being able to hang from a bar for that long but today I could basically only do 6-7 seconds max...
I'm lowkey thinking about adding a pull up bar to my list of purchases for after my move in a few weeks.
woops I forgot to hit enter last night...
Went in on Monday, and the workout was same as the previous Monday's. I'm going to try and reserve my Mondays going forward because I really do enjoy the class pacing - more intense while not going too far to push anyone past their limit.
