A. All sets were 3-4 reps due to not having belt to use around waist at my home gym. Had to use DB bracing it with my ankles. Worked to 55# DB heaviest I have. So total weight 205#. It worked lol…
B. Forgot to start timer but I would estimate in the neighborhood of 12 minutes.

I had an early day in the office so I wasn’t able to workout today, but that B is something I definitely want to tackle tomorrow. A is out of my league at the moment

How to tally the weight on weighted pull-ups:

Most of us have experienced how much harder gymnastics movements are when we are heavier. Technically, every pull-up you do is weighted with your bodyweight, so count that toward your total in order to get a better idea of progress over time.

For example, right now, I weigh 148# so if I work up to a single with a 35# KB, then my 1RM weighted pull-up is 183#! Whoot!

At home again so improvised.
A1. 8×8 OT2M L-sit Pull Ups
A2. 10 min Emom FS 135#, start at 1 then add 1 rep each min up to 10. Gets spicy toward the end. Should have gone heavier.
B. 3x 400m, 10 C&P 135#: 10:28

Good improv! You could also ask a kid to jump on your back. 🙂

Re: A2 – that looks fun! I might try it. I like to add an extra squat day into the week. Good pairing with today’s pull-ups too. Just a heads up, there is no squat day this week since it’s a reset week. 🙁

Way ahead of you, I actually asked my kids to jump on my back, my daughter did and then jumped off because I was “yucky sweaty”! It was also a little tough to pull off in the l-sit, I’m only working with my daughter’s gymnastics bar. My former outside pull-up set up was replaced with a pool/gazebo two years ago. Tradeoffs?
