Thank you! Boss was really appreciative and proud of how fast we learned. So that makes it worth it!...Yeah I wanted to ask what those did! Lol...doing the Pulldowns with the rope allows you to pull further back past the front of your legs! Get a nice squeeze!
 
Good morning! Switching things up a little bit due to Christmas and traveling. Thought I was only going to get to train Monday and Tuesday but I should be able to squeeze Wednesday in too! Then we will be gone from Friday until late Tuesday. So back at it next Wednesday.
