Tae Kwon Do + Z-Health
Yesterday I worked on a combination of Tae Kwon Do and Z-Health. I would practice TKD techniques or forms for about 5 minutes and then do Z-Health movements for recovery. Excellent combination.
This morning: 6:05 kettlebell class
Light workout with swings, pushups, bodyweight rows. Finished with some quality time on the ab-wheel.

allergies
Long time no post ....
Allergies then sinus infection. Cool....
I kept doing the full body Z-Health R-Phase drills nearly everyday. Also, now wearing contacts everyday so vision in both eyes is the same. Feel some big improvements in overall well-being as well as balance. Although, reading is tough. But, I think my vision is improving day by day.
Yesterday was first real workout with class. Mostly up & downs and the 360 hill swing routine with the 20 kg.
Today did some snatch ladders, 20kg + 24kg + 28kg + 32kg along with some pullups. Plus full-body R-Phase.

Pulling Higher
This morning did full-body R-Phase exercises. Intermixed with this were a couple of pistols, FMS knee rehab, and more work on pull-up technique. Improved visualization added a couple of inches to the height of the pullup. Now I can often perform a pullup so the bar is a couple of inches below the clavicle.
When I can start achieving 3 to 5 reps with this quality, I will start adding weight.
Evening, videotaped the 3rd workout for the Level 1 Workouts DVD.
Total time: 2.5 hrs
