THE LAST 3 WEEKS Pt. 2

Pt 2, of the 3 week recap of the beginning of my NECCA Intensives program.

So the first day of our Intensives Program was our FIRST Assessment day:
What is an assessment day you ask?
It is a day where your physical strength and flexibility is measured by doing various exorcises:
For example: how many pullups can you do, how many v ups (hang with hands on the trapeze bar, and raise your straight legs until your toes touch the bar) can you do, how long can you hold an  L sit (hang hands on bar, legs straight out in front of you at a 90 degree angle in the air, hold for as long as possible). How many pushups can you do. How low are your splits, how low is your straddle, how long can you hold a handstand...etc the list goes on.
The goal is to take WHEREVER we are at now, and compare it to an assessment we will do in the middle and at the end of the program, to compare, and see our growth.
I was awarded LONGEST Hollow body position held amongst the Intensives group (my little proud moment of the day).

That assessment kicked our asses nice. We have a long way to go, and I'm excited to get there.
