12/3/15 Workout

Had some stuff to do tonight so I tried a park on the other side of Orlando. A little research and I found a  park I've passed by pretty often but never stopped at. And it has a fitness trail! Oh, but not all fitness are made equal... This one features kiosks, all with wierd vertical handle bars & a lot of info that I can only imagine is mostly for stretching... No pull up bars! No parallel bars! But, despair not, there's a kids play ground!

A little creative use made a pretty nice workout. There was even a bridge with a ledge under it that made a perfect spot for eccentric pull ups. Now I'm going to have to find a park on my side of town, or a way to bring a step with me.

It looks like I can still step up a couple of these to the next progression. The beginner shrimp squats I think I'll keep at for now. I could do 15 and maybe more, but lack of flexibility and ballance made them pretty ugly. Next time I'm only going to count good ones.

Diamond pikes, fore arm knee raises & maybe inverted rows, can go to the next progression. The rows I did the first 2 sets on a low monkey bar type thing. The last set I used the chains on a swing. I think the chains were a lot harder. I might try that again if I find a new park near home.

Almost busted my head practicing crow stands. Might practice tucking my head & rolling out next time. I can barely lift my toes off the ground, but it was fun.

Peace
