Just need to share, because I'm quite happy at the moment.
These workouts are *short*! Which is a good thing, after the two-and-a-half hours of stage 5. (OK, so I added some stretching, but still...)
The negative chin-ups had me feel, of all things, my upper abs for days. In workout B, I replaced the incline reverse crunches, which my back just *hates* with attempts at a swiss ball pike (from NRoL for Abs). Holy smurf, those are hard work. But fun. I attempted to replace the back hyperextensions with good mornings to get around that grip strength limit, but the barbell absolutely wanted to end up on my neck, so back to working on grip strength.
And I managed to hold a handstand for a count of 21. Which is only about 7 seconds, but still...
