First day back since… the Smackdown. Good to get started again even if it was an awful 24 minute reminder of how little I’ve been moving for the past month! Chin-ups failed remarkably fast down to 3 each round, push-ups always fail quickly so that was expected, twists and v-ups rounds hit much harder and ended up being the ones I didn’t quite complete on the last cycle. Fun times!
