I’m jealous!
When I was a kid a did a lot of (indoor) ice-skating in Belgium, and was allways fascinated when the “elf steden tocht” happened up at the northern end of the Netherlands. Never got to do it outdoors myself though, it just doesn’t get cold enough for long enough down here. Have fun as long as it lasts!

First try starting slowly completed crossfit warmup and front squats 5/45, 5/45,5/45, 5/55, 5/55

I only had about 20 minutes to get into and out of the gym so I did this quick one yesterday:

Thought that i had posted this, but i couldnt find it, basically missed doing the pull up variations on friday due to work basically too busy to get out as planned. So saturday morning, cycled to gym then i did a modified pull up variation of: 6rft of 3 weighted pu 35#/5 strict pu/7 kipping

time: 21:57, basically my kipping, still not there, more like a quasi hybrid type.

then front squats 5-5-5-5-5:
(kg) 20-40-50-60-70
flexibiltity issues with my my elbows not getting terribly high, but i hold it in place and my back stays upright. So while not a textbook hold, it all feels stable and pleased with depth. Just keep working on flexibility.
did another 10 pull ups, then cycled home.

mucked around through the afternoon doing some ring dips here and there.

cheers
