condition 220 experimentation and success

Edit: just read what i did (waiters walk + farmers walk) is called a cross walk. Noted.

Edit2: adding a new tag for conditioning

Great god damn workout. Couple of things to note:
- starting with glute work is money
- band pull throughs are legit amazing
- using an unfamiliar playlist for conditioning is a great way to zone in while zoning out
- adding even 1 new element to conditioning makes it dramatically harder

On this last note. I added a few things today. Instead of just doing my nornal waiters walk, i...
- added a fat grip (not net new, did this sat)
- increased the weight. Not really that bad
- added a sandbag carry. BINGO

The sandbag i carried could not have been more than 40lbs and had an easy handle to grasp. And yet (preggo pause) this made me gas faster and way more unstable.

For comparison, i said fuck it and dropped the sandbag a few rounds in. All of a sudden i started moving way faster (less weight no surprise) and became more stable on the waiters walk (...ok surprise).

Food for thought. All in all this was a great workout. 

Workout
Waiters walk combo sandbag carry
20min, about .7 miles (unclear)
- Waiters db 55lbs, fat grip 
- sandbag ??? Lbs
Band curls for back, hams, glutes, shoulders
Hang
Band pullthrough!!!!!

Again, do band pullthroughs
No waiting for the cable machine. It deloads at the bottom of the movement where shear force is at its max but still stretches hams. The contraction up top is wayyyyy more than a cable would be.
