Complete 3 sets of each:

1 Embedded L-sit + 5 Tempo Russian Dips

1 Embedded BL + 5 Tempo Half Reverse MU

1 Embedded FL + 5 Tempo Straddle V-ups

Finish the workout with 10 Bridge Wall Walks

notes:

1) Warm-up by performing 2-3 easier Curl/Dip variations prior to beginning your working sets. The variations used should initially begin with one that is quite easy and then get progressively more difficult from warm-up set to warm-up set.

2) Choose a body position for the embedded static strength variation that allows you to hold the position for 15 seconds per rep.

3) Rest 10-20 seconds between the embedded static and the subsequent exercise. Rest 1-2 minutes in between giant sets.

4) Use a tempo of 212 for the basic strength sets.

5) This is a maximal bent arm strength day, do not be timid in increasing the intensity; add weight as needed to make the exercises very challenging for the rx’d repetitions.

6) However also feel free to scale the workout by substituting another exercise from the same movement family if necessary.

7) DO NOT skip the Bridge Wall Walks at the end of the Workout.

Pre-FSP's: Plank, Reverse plank, Hollow hold, Arch hold, PB support,Chin up grip dead hang

60s holds. 30s between holds (extra 30s after hollow hold)

Time= 9:30

Complete 3 sets of each:

1 PB L-sit + 5 PB Dips

1 German hang + 5 Inverted chins

1 Tuck FL + 5 Straddle V-ups

2 mins between sets; Time= 25:40

2x5 Full bridges

- Felt pretty rubbish with cold/flu but persevered. Don't think it detracted from the session.

- Performed pre-FSP retest stopping at 60s for all holds. Not the limit for planks, support or hang. Near limit for hollow hold. Will up all sets to 30s.

- Scaling bang on for WOD work

- Pulled up to/just under 90degrees for the inverted chins

- FL somewhere between tuck and flat tuck (closer to latter, which is progress)

Good session
