  1. PART I: Bench Press
    1 x 10 @ 60 = 70
    1 x 8 @ 70 = 80
    1 x 6 @ 75 = 85
    1 x 4 @ 80 = 92
    Did all these weights, felt ok, a little shakey on the last few reps but not close to failing.

    PART II: Strict Pull-ups
    Every 2 Minutes For 10 Minutes
    3, 4, 3, 3, Max
    Did all these sets with the peanut in feet, stayed close to the bar like your note said (so you could rest your chin on it). Last max set was 5, form looks good on film.

    PART III: L-Sit Progression

    Watched video and practiced variations for 10 minutes. Need to work on keeping hips in front of shoulders more but was able to do the pistol tuck variations for ~20 sec and L-sit for ~10 sec (but do need to work on hip position). Will continue to work on this. (also took video of last set).
