Week 1 Day 2 - These dam waves will test your character

W1D2



This Session was a lot tougher than yesterdays. After finishing the second log wave, I wasn't sure that I'd end the session, but mum didn't raise no quitter, so I just pushed on and got the work done, I mean what else are you going to do?


I got a couple questions about the warm-up/prep phase regarding the first session it shouldn't take more than 10min's to complete. The weights are very light; the goal is movement I want to get blood into the muscles that are about to be subject to the vicious strength waves. You should be sweating but not knackered if your dead after the prep you using to much weight.
