Done with the Base phase!

Although there was a long hiatus before the final two workouts of this phase, I'm calling it done.  I would love to do more OH squats, but I need to move on.

This workout is so darn long that I did 3 sets of the first 4 exercises and 2 sets of the last 4.  I'm not super excited about BSS at the end of a workout, anyway.  Two sets of those are enough when my rear is already blasted.

I got two SPRI Superbands in the mail yesterday.  I got the 1/2" and the 1".  They are thicker than I expected.  Pretty sturdy.  The next phase of FBB has assisted pull-ups, so I wanted to have them on hand.  (I can't yet do ~8 pull-ups!)

I don't normally do smoothies for post-workout, but I'm out of Greek yogurt.  So, some frozen mango, milk, and a scoop of my vanilla caramel swirl blended together.... yum!!
