Parallettes

    

              In this video you will see our really good friend, Piper making a set of parallettes.  In CrossFit there are movements that you can do using this equipment.  I wanted to incorporate these into my WOD's.  So, Piper and my husband were off to Home Depot.  Piper already had a set at his garage gym, so he knew what to get.

L- Sit with my son in our backyard. 
          In a few hours including the trip the parallettes were made and we trying the moves out.  My favorite, which brings me back to my fitness competition days is the L-Sit.  Holding that position creates  a stronger connection to how you feel your muscles. 

Here is a link to the CrossFit Journal for a written out set of directions on the parallettes.
