When I thought about what might included in the Back + Base exercise, I figured it was back exercise and leg exercises. Yeah, no kidding. What I didn't consider is how the leg exercises would work.
Can you say Plyocide + Pull-ups?
This workout is 10 exercises repeating for 2 rounds. It alternates pull-ups, which I modify using resistance bands equaling 40-50 pounds, and then a plyometric exercise. omg. On the plus side, I think I can increase my resistance band weight next week so that I can get that much closer to the reality of a pull-up.
And after you're done, you do Ab Ripper. I'm still terrible at Superman Banana X -- I think in part because I don't have enough room in my living room to do it. I'm still working it out. My hips were also bothering me more today, so some of the ab exercises (like Roll V Hold and Row Your Boat) were killing me, and I had to rest/readjust several times.
Most of the time I was working out today, I was thinking, "I can't wait for tomorrow when I can do Recovery & Mobility!" I need that foam rolling!

Be sure to foam roll your hip flexors!!! I am going to email you a great paper on glutes/hips/core stability and mobility :)
