Lean into it

Morning

Ring dip 100x1, 55x2x2

Kb swing 3 rounds 40s on / 20s off, 20kg

Afternoon

Upper body pull medley

condition | sandbag hp and bw squat | very minute on the minute

I greatly regret basing my reps off of the first set. 

1st set

3 sandbag high pulls

6 bw squats

Internal monologue: well i barely felt that. Am i coddling myself? Has the bitch not left mah soul? 

Sstan: double it

Internal monologue: yeshhhhh mah mashterrrr

Min 1 - 10

5 sandbag high pulls 

10 bw squats

By minute 5 i yearned for death. This was a great end to an upper body workout. Doing high pulls with the sandbag is money because there doesnt have to be a concentric. I just drop the fucker on my feet.

How to:

Every minute on the minute do

5 sandbag high pulls

10 bodyweight squats

The faster you finish your sets, the more rest you have before the next set. This was surprisingly brutal.

calisthenics: push legs pull legs (repeat)

It's not like it sounds. 

I want to work out every day. If im going balls to the walls with the same muscle groups daily, that can't happen. If i do ring work too often, my hands get ripped up. Theres got to be a medium.

Enter the bro split version of calisthenics. Typically PPL (push pull legs), I'm interspacing legs in the mix much more often to give my hands a break. 

Break each phase into 2 month long cycles: hypertrophy and strength

Hypertrophy phase: bw only on push and pull

4-5 movements, 5x10 per movement, avoid failure
