10/18/17-10/21/17- Marina Del Ray/ Venice Beach CA. Kyle- I was unable to track macros so will resume on Sunday when we travel home. It was a great trip. The beach workout was tough. The ring pullups went good. The rope climbs were tough. it was fun trying to figure out the foot lock. It was a a little hard because the rope was fixed to the ground so not much slack. The legless I could get maybe  2 arm movements. My grip strength was one of my limiters. The ice cream makers I had about 80% of the movement. It was tough to bring my knees to chest. This was the issue for the ring inversions. I could get my legs to about 60 degrees. Technique and ab/core strength may be the issue

Couldn't find a hill to did soft sand sprints on the beach as replacement. It was a great vacation! Looking forward to getting back on the  program!! Feeling rested.

Walked 3-6 miles daily and rode beach cruisers 20 mi on Tuesday.

A2. Wtd. Prone Grip Pull-up @21x1 - 5 x 2.2.2; rest 60sec (moderate across)
Ugh-  

Started with 10 lbs but too heavy. Switched to 5 lbs. I'm sorry but could not remember or figure out how long to rest  between each of the 2.2.2. I did review TTT info I received when I started. Does this mean 60 sec or is 60 sec between sets? I rested about 30 sec between each of the 2.2.2. The first 3 sets went just ok. Last 2 sets were unweighted. I could not use a dumbbell. 

My pull up bar hangs from the rafters in the basement so I can never"hang" vertically. I usually flex my hips and bring my knees up. (knees toward elbows). I use this method with the DB weighted reps. When I couldn't use the DB  I focused on flexing my knees and putting my feet behind me. This position  way more difficult! Granted, I was fatigued but it was really hard to initiate the movement. Once I had pulled up 2-3 inches I felt strong but that initial 0-2 inches were rough. Perhaps with hips flexed I can use a little momentum and they are a little easier. Inadvertently I may have been fudging my form on PU this summer. 

PU are a nemesis! Lots of opportunity for growth! F*&^k
