hello everybody I started the master program today, ithe general warm up went well even though the butterfly chest to bar I made them with the smaller elastic band, and the vertical walk I have to learn to do it because I stay up vertical but I don’t move:) or I give myself too much momentum and fall to the other side. strict hand stand push up 5 every round.
