Really wanted to test my homemade slam ball today.
Did my warm-ups and somehow a co-worker got me motivated to do some box jumps.
No Plyo Boxes around so I adapted and used the Reverse Hyper Machine.
Didn’t realize until after doing it that I just made a Personal Record on my box jumps!
Highest I done before today was 43″ jump and today I did 44.5″!
Average amount of sleep and feeling as I start the day (5/10).
Simple plan today of Yoke Carries, Tire Flips, Farmers Walk and Reverse Hyper.
Surprised myself as todays session felt easier compared to last time I made the same movements.
I guess small improvements helps! Read the rest of this entry »
Not enough sleep and felt average as I start the day.
Got myself an old tire to play around with some tire drills.
After tossing the tire around I figured I need to make myself a slam ball for throws …
Finished with some fun sled work and battle ropes also.
Planning to not go to crazy and brfeak in my new 10 lbs sledgehammer to work on technique.
Ended up destroying my arm with single arm sled rope pulls.
Fun times!

Debating on doing any work today then I found out the Yoke was delivered and put together at my gym!
Never used one before so I was VERY excited to go train and use it.
Farmers walk handles was delivered too and a longer and thicker battle rope!
So much new toys I decided to try and use as much as I can and had a great day!
It did break my body down awfully good!
