Session: Morning10:00 AM - 11:00 AM
upper body calisthenics:
- TONS of stuff.. mostly working on achieving new positions/movements
- progress
- did some cool stuff on parallel bars: going from parallel bar dips to one dip bar, kind of jumping one arm over, then back
- did lots of rotational stuff, lots of pushup/chinup/pullup variations (different grips, widths, alternating grips, etc)
- also did pushup variations with hands down by pelvis, basically planche progression
- L-sit dip/pullup variations
- finished with some supported handstand holds
really good (and fun) session.

as for running, I might try this new approach for a few weeks: set my virtual pacer on my watch to 7:00 min/mi .. make sure I can hit EVERY SPLIT under 7 min.. once I can do that for a few runs, then I move it down to 6:50 min/mi etc.. and just repeat this process... I would do this for 3 out of my 5 runs in a week.. the other two runs would be slightly slower.. dno, makes sense. Kind of like attempting to add 5-10 lb. to the bar for squats every 1-2 weeks.
^^ I should be getting in more speed work right now but i'm too weak mentally atm.
tmw is just running.. i might do my 8 mi run - trying to get under 7:30 instead of 7 ... wednesday will be upper bodyweight with added resistance and barbell lower. Need to switch it up wednesday though, I might actually do some 10x10 squatting.. something nutty.
pc!!
