Damn those L Sit Holds!

I knew going into the WOD today the most challenging exercise for me was going to be the L Sit Hold.  For those of you that do not know what an L Sit Hold is, check out the video below.

If there is one thing that has been a constant struggle for me I would say without a doubt that is my core.  The only way to improve it is to work it out!  I would say today the core was worked.


20 minutes AMRAP:


30 second Handstand hold
30 second Squat hold
15 second L-sit hold
15 second Chin over bar hold
Total: 8 rounds + Squat hold

I would be lying if I said the other exercises were not challenging as time went on.  The squats were the easiest.  My arms were getting a little shaky from the handstands as well as the chin over bar.  The L Sit Hold was by far the worst.  You know what that means..... more work for the core!
