Workout of the Day

Monday is dedicated to Dale really stinking at pull-ups. I'm posting my workouts a day behind when I'm doing them becuase I have the people at the Phillpi sports institute helping me, so I'm giving you what I'm doing a day behind sometimes. Let me tell you that on this workout I really sucked at the chin ups.

Quality time with your FOAM ROLLER (I love these things email me if you have any questions.)
Dynamic warm-up (stretching with movement)

Two sets of strength training. Take 5 between sets.

Set A
ball throws. Grab a wall, set your core, and toss overhead. Like throwing a soccer ball back in bounds.
Deadlift 10 reps
1 legged cable pulls

Set B

Chin ups (he wanted 10, soon he was getting 8. Make sure your leaving 2 in the bank.)
Thai Lunges. Legs stay in place and your drop your knee to the floor. 10 reps
