I forgot my usual hand towel so I used my actual shower towel, a beach towel. It added quite a bit to the grip aspect of this

Lunges
Pretest: tips of toes
Weight: bodyweight
Unilateral:y
Reps:157
Posttest:toe tips
Notes:
I have typically interlaced my fingers over my head for this exercise. I was noticing that as I did reps I was getting hamstring tension on the forward leg. I noticed my opposing arm was tense too. I begin holding my arms straight up in the air and it seems to remove this tension.

Sitou
Pretest: toe tips
Weight:bodyweight
Unilateral:y
Reps:60 (my have lost count)
Posttest: floor
Notes:
I’ve noticed a couple times that on my first few reps to my right I can’t drive the hips through. I try and I reach a point in the ROM where the muscles just won’t fire. It feels very much like it’s related to that old back injury. If I keep working the exercise though, I do eventually work through the entire ROM and it feel incredibly good.
