I think I'm getting sick.

Warmup tonight:
4 sets of:
5 burpees
5 toe-to-bar (last 2 sets were knees-to-elbows)
5 jumping kipping pullups on rings
10 lunges

I did a 400m row and about 8 wallballs with 14 lb medicine ball before I decided I shouldn't be working out. My legs were way, way too tired for what I was doing, so I figured something was wrong and I should just stop. Sucks. I was really looking forward to this workout (3 sets of 400m row, 30 wall ball, 30 box jumps).

Tomorrow's another day.

I was dead set on not jumping on my pullups, so I used the small band and really focused on my kipping pullup form. As a result, I only got through 5 sets (plus 10 squats). But I'm cool with that. I'm extremely close to getting the kipping pullups. I'm so stoked to knock that one off the list!
