34" box jump just to prove to the bystanders I could do it (I secretly removed one riser)
34" box jump w/ another spectacular fail (this time with no witnesses, but I wasn't taking any chances, so I quit here)
"Spectacular fail" - does this involve a face plant or ??? Video ???

Congrats on the Push-Up PR.
As for the box jumps. Did you ever notice how there is never anyone around when you do something spectacular, but all eyes are on you when you screw up?

It was a pretty annoying time to workout at this particular gym. Lots of old people, gym morons, and people from other cultures who not only don't have a sense of personal space, but also don't understand how much space people need to lift a weight.
On a positive side, there were some newbies who were doing everything right.

= bonk!
Good for you for being patient enough to workout anyway.
The idea of lifting (and doing strange and interesting movements) around total strangers has always been intimidating to me.
At home I just have to deal with stray cats walking between my feet during deadlifts.
It's weird. In the first set, the towel is assisting the other arm, but by set three, the other arm is assisting the towel side.
The TRX Pullups are brutal on the lower back and the lats. I was going to do some bodyweight squats or lunges at the end, but my back was wiped out. I wanted an excuse to not, anyway.
I think Mistress Krista had a pic or two… someone did at least. You drape the towel over the bar, and hold it in the non-working hand, using it to assist, but it isn't as advantageous.
