Mixing KB, FMS & Z

Taught 6:00 a.m. KB Class. Worked on Russian Twist with a barbell & 10 to 20 lbs of weight. Great exercise for intercostals.

Also worked with group on proper alignment during lunges and the importance of tall spine.

Mixed swings with Z-Health hand, wrist, & finger exercises. Finished with walking swings mixed with dead cleans and dead snatches.

After class, did some of my own Z-Health work and practiced some forms. Will continue editing of Level 1 Workouts DVD today.

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

Pullup perfection

Worked with a client on Z-Health & FMS correctives. Made a little progress !

Did full body R-Phase exercises and mixed with pullups and presses. Emphasis was on pullup perfection. If I cannot get to my clavicle it is not a perfect rep. Did only sets of one or two reps. Body weight only. Finished with a rope climb.

Total time 45 mins
