         Savvi is pretty bad-ass with the pistols. He got both legs with 10kg! http://vimeo.com/31851110

      Awesome job Lex!

      Also, here’s a link to some videos from Ido Portal for the ‘shrimp’ exercise (one-legged squat with leg behind): http://idoportal.blogspot.com/2009/08/explosive-leg-workout.html This also has some of the jumping drills that we did on Monday in the MovNat / Flow class.

      Completely unacceptable Andy. 😀

      Also, I’ll be trying to do a pistol while standing on a kettlebell tomorrow at the noon class.

    Pistols: apparently I just need to stretch my achilis/shins/quads a bit before I can do these. (right leg): 5 unbroken Rx, 3 unbroken with pvc over head
    (left leg…struggle with these): 2 unbroken Rx, 1 with pvc over head

    WOD: 14:30 I think (40#)….wow, goodbye arms

       You don’t like falling into the potholes in the parking lot? It’s so much fun!

    Improvised in hotel gym:
    5 rounds –
    200m run
    20 pushups (16, 12, 16, 20)
    1 min. handstand hold (45 sec., 30 sec., 45 sec., 1:00)

    12: something plus a bunch of wasted time trying to reset the treadmill.
