I make sure that I'm really aware on locking things down especially on activation. You almost look forward to the diamond cutter because at the end of it you can unclench things for a few seconds and shake them out.
On the lunge its pretty well unintentional lockup on the lower body. But I found that when you really envision the grabbing of the ball thing pretty well every muscle in your upper body goes into flex, I think its just getting into the habit.
Its funny as well. There are days that I get home and I'm tired or frustrated from work or traffic and there's no god damned way I'm doing this.
But I go into my room lay on the mat and just do the breathing, then you find yourself reaching for the T.V. remote and next thing you know your doing it.
I like the fact that when I'm doing things like the CT pushups, or the standing rows or standing punches, My arms and shoulders literally shake like an earth quake. Or just sitting in the broken table and pushing up on that shoulder my arm starts to shake and my leg has to work really hard to maintain balance.
I do want to punch him in the face sometimes with his delayed countdown.
"OK, get into table, then go to a plank, we're going to do CT pushups. Now we're going to hold here for a count of 9. Now look at Aurther he's owning it, and Stacy has a great modification, wow her heart rate is jacked. Now count it down 9. . . 8 . . ."
Me "You fargin bastig"
