Monday and Tuesday Workouts…

The last two days have been pretty good, and was pretty happy with my kipping handstand push ups yesterday, as I hit every max set, and felt like I could have gotten even more if I wanted to. I kept the intensity on the power cleans at a moderate weight, and actually was pretty happy because everything went pretty well, and my concentration was the handstand push ups during this battery tester. I am feeling pretty good, and I am also happy with how my back recovers from heavy days. Before it would take a couple weeks, or I could not move for sometime, but now it only takes about a day or two, and I can still workout. This is a huge improvement from before Regionals, and  putting the emphasis on the posterior chain work and lower back has def paid off.
