hoxton Posted January 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Today: Horizontal Pull Ups (Bar at Sternum Height)Goal 3x30 S1 x 30S2 x 30S3 x 30 Lying Leg Raises (Slight bend in legs)Goal 3x30 S1 x 15S2 x 15 Super stoked with my workout today. I have been working on Horizontal Pull Ups for about a month and have finally met the progression standard. I got to move my bar from Chest Height to Hip Height. Tried a pull up on the Hip Height Bar and couldn't even do a single one! Bring on the next step. Quote Link to comment

Push Ups seem to be coming along nicely, however I have no idea how I am going to be able to do the close squat with a full range of motion without the chair. We shall see! Quote Link to comment

hoxton Posted January 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Today: Convict Conditioning Horizontal Pulls (Hip Height):(Goal 3x30) S1:10 (sloppy) Lying Leg Raises (Slight Bend in Knee)(Goal 3x30) S1: 15S2: 15S3: 6 Made my first set of horizontal pulls today, they surprised my muscles quite a lot!Also lying leg raises which don't ever seem to get easier but I did six more than last time so they must be. Also worked on my wrist mobility exercises. Getting There. The aim is to be able to hold each of these comfortably for around 2 minutes. Can hold for around 1min 45 seconds 20 seconds This ones a killer, I can't quite get both legs up at the same time. Quote Link to comment
hoxton Posted January 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 Today:Convict Conditioning Im working towards squatting with my heels together, but at the moment I can't get the full range of motion ( I just fall over backwards) so I have invented the Squat-o-meter! Today I did my squats with my heels 11 inches apart.Each week I will close the gap inch by inch, until I can squat with my heels touching and a full range of motion. Squats Step 5.5: (Goal 2x20 @ 0 inches)@ 11 inchesS1: 20S2: 20 Table Push Ups Step 2:(Goal: 3x40)S1: 30S2: 30S3: 30 Quote Link to comment

hoxton Posted January 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 Today: Wrist Mobility Drills and Yoga. MUST TOUCH TOES. But if i'm honest it's still a long way off! Day 14 was awesome. Every time I do one of these videos I get annoyed that i'm so in-fexible, then by the end i'm stoked that I got a little closer to my goals. The GMB Routine i'm following. Quote Link to comment
hoxton Posted April 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 Right back after my last challenge which was awesome.Super stoked with the progress I have made so far. I am still having wrist issues, although it gets better week on week. I am currently working on paralettes which allow me to do pressing movements without aggravating my wrists. Also I am working on the dirty rice workout to try an strengthen my extensors etc. This is HARD! Quote Link to comment
