Day 25: The Kung-Fu Sit up

Hey all,

I got outside today and, using the swingset in my park, got to my kung-fu sit ups. This was an exercise I neglected a bit during the PCP because I just wasn't strong enough. However, this time I around I got right into it using the peak of the swing set in my park as my bar. It's not a straight bar, but it gets the job done. I think I'm going to need to get some workout gloves though. All these pull ups are hard on the hands.

  1. Totally. I used my old women's lacrosse gloves.

  2. And not just the hands - I don't know if I'm ever going to be able to do an unassisted pull up!

  3. I had bought some weight-lifting gloves to help with the grip on the pull-up bar. They have leather/suade in the palm area. Doesn't hold very well -- I still slip. I think I need to find something that'll stick my hands to the bar.
