Today was a first at the gym, I did a Bar-barian forums challenge during my session. I had my phone there for another reason, but since I had it, I figured I may as well get a challenge attempt in.  It was the push up variety of this month’s challenge where you do 5 reps, plank for 5 seconds, and then 5 more reps, 5 second plank until failure.  My 52 rep performance put me right in the middle of the scoreboard so far this month, not great, not bad.

The rest of my workout was all shoulder/back intensive working on both front and back lever progression movements.
