plenty of double-unders practice. nailed about 7 total including before and after the lifts.

yesterday I hit 1.25 miles, 25 burpees, 1.25 miles. I experimented with forward lean and landing on the mid and fore foot. My calves are toasty today. Resting it out.

Could I reserve two ropes?

Feeling guilty for not doing anything yesterday. Although I am feeling "really well trained" from the wod on Sat.

Peace,
Alex

Hey Pete if you got anymore jump ropes hold one for me too, i'm out of town for a week on Thursday so I'm gonna need it while i'm home.

Paul said...

One more thing...
I really like this skill of the week, can't tell you how much this will help, I for one am usually too tired and lack motivation post workout to do it.
I would like to request Handstand pushups for a future skill of the week
