TRX and Bicep Fun

[Catrin]

Sounds like fun Veronica! Monday morning, among other things, we were doing pistol squats with one hand on the TRX and the other with a kettlebell in the rack position. I've got a lot of work to do with my flexibility...

I've always done one legged squats going down to the bench and holding a weight. I wonder if I could do them w/o the bench.

He has us holding onto the TRX with one hand so we can go as low as possible. I am not all that low...yet

I tried a few, just messing around, it's really hard to keep your knee over your ankle. And not having the bench under my butt, makes me reluctant to go down as far.

It takes time - I want to lean backwards as I go down - which doesn't work so well especially with a kettlebell in the front rack position. The cue is to drop straight down like we know we should...practice makes perfect We have one woman who is so good at this that her butt is about 6 inches off the ground and she has perfect form. My role model - though I will never be as good as she is - she is about 20 years younger than I

That's funny, I wanted to lean forward.
