GHDamn!

Today was 5 rds of
30 GHD and 25 back extension in 16:42. I can't find my previous time, but I think it was >20 minutes. This was my first time on an actual GHD and it was great and awful at the same time. My quads and hamstrings were toast (which means I was pulling with my legs well) but my abs won't release. I am stuck with a constant contraction. It was hard to keep going, but the girl on the GHD next to me was keeping pace with me, so it kept me pushing and I finished just 12 seconds ahead of her. You don't get that in your garage. I know I won't have a landmark time on this one, but it was a good improvement for me, I think.

I am also doing HSPU in my warm up every day. Hopefully they start to get easier. I can now do 5 straight and 4 straight, but the third set is toast. It will improve, as long as I keep up with it.
