This was far to easy. I should have increased the weight after the first set, i feel stupid, form was awesome for obvious reasons. Will move up to 155 next week. Maybe even heavier.

Oddly enough my biceps gave out, back was engaged the entire time, Range of motion with feet on a high box mad this a great body weight exercise. Hopefully reach the full 3 x 15 next week.

Battling ropes

Set 1 - Pushed the pace hard
set 2 - Started to fatigue, tried to push the pace as hard as i could
set 3 - Shoulders were toasted, went slower for the first 20’s then pushed it to the max the last 20’s.

Great work out!
This program feels like a great fit so far.
