Woman's first Chin-Ups... Marshfield Fitness Studio

Today's post is brief.

But a BIGGIE none the less.

Francine rocked her first chin-ups today at the studio :)

Couldn't be prouder of her.

It's so amazing to witness training family at the studio achieve milestones. Onlooking was Gail, who was involved in her own posterior chain session during their semi-private training appointment. And not only did Francine do one chin-up, but she did 3 singles in a row!!! That's usually how I see it happen.

Most people will train for months, coming near complete, then one day, BOOM! It's never usually one, but a couple or a few chin-ups in a row.

Congratulations Francine! You Rocked It!!!!!

Live the Dream kiddo,


Rob

Decent Workout

Today's workout consisted of some basics, circuited together.

I was really hoping to try out my new plyo-boxes tonight, but weary legs from the Sunday's squat session prevented me from doing so : (

So tonight was an upper body day. After my dynamic warm-up, I moved into some inverted rows, pulling to the collar bone to really hit the rhomboids.

Next I moved into some neutral grip, chain, chin-ups. Rested 10 seconds and performed a set of wide grip pull-ups.

Third, I performed kneeling cable crunches, really focusing on my breathing and contractions.

Fourth, I kept the rope around and performed some triceps press-downs.

That was pretty much it.

I repeated this circuit 4 times and kept the reps in the 12-15 range. Still feeling out my shoulder from the pre-summer injury on tour.
