The power of bands

Did everyone read the post yesterday? I know it was super long.. I tend to rant once I get started on eating healthy. Find any interesting paleo-related information? Is anyone starting to eat paleo? Let me know your thoughts and plans!

For the WOD today, the only piece of equipment we’ll be using is a band. Bands can be incorporated into workouts in several different ways: from assisted pull ups (see above) to full workouts with nothing but a band. If you go on vacation and you know you’re not going to have time to get to a gym, just bring along a band and you’ll find that you can get a great workout with that single piece of equipment. Today we’ll learn some of those movements in our workout:
