Playing with a new toy

AMRAP10
7 Hanging leg raises - Not quite TTB
14 x 20kg russian t-handle swings

I saw some doing TTB with a perfect rhythm in a video and realised that the key to stringing 2 together and not having to kill the swing between is sending your hips back as the legs come up, so that it's more of a v-up.

 If I keep my lower abs tight as KStarr tried to teach me my hamstrings are long enough to do a proper TTB and when I got the rhythm down I nearly did touch the bar. All I was aiming for was rhythm and about toes at about eye level  without pulling with my arms too much. Mostly got it. Toes got height, used my arms a bit.
