F7 GST A

A little run down today. Elbows and forearms starting to hurt a little during planche work. Don't rush it. Maybe do a deload week next week. 

Time:75 min. Rehab is taking about 25-30 min

Note: Left shoulder ROM improving. Still can't free hang, but getting better each week. 

Once shoulder is feeling better, see 3/3/2016 for where I was in the F7 progressions. Take it easy and don't rush things.
