3 Rounds for time of
15 pull ups
30 hip extensions
Workouts like this, in light of some of the recent longer ones, are a real treat. There's no need to break up sets or plan some sort of strategy for pacing. It's basically a sprint, one sustained max effort. The pull ups I'm doing in the video are called "kipping pull ups," a full-body movement that utilizes the hips to generate upward momentum. In some cases, I string them together in a circular motion; these are called "butterfly pull ups" and are simply a faster variation of the kipping pull up.
As for my hip extensions, some of them have a questionable range of motion. Correctly done, the hip extension should bring the torso completely parallel to the ground. If you're ever unsure of your form, videotape it; the camera doesn't lie.
And yes, I know my legs are whiter than the snow outside. What do you expect? I'm a redhead in the winter.
