Jackknife Squat- Vertical Pull Day

Today was Jackknife Squat Day / Vertical Pull Day. 2 Sets of ten. That's all.

I'm finding that if I turn my feet out a little, it helps, and that I'm only going as low as my musculature will take the weight. I'll continue to lower over time. Hard to believe how much this skill has atrophied.

Vertical pulls are, like the squats, a form of meditation. 2 seconds away from the wall while breathing out. Hold for a second at the bottom. 2 seconds pulling towards the wall while exhaling. Because of our door frame, this gives my fingers and forearms a nice workout
