Let me tell you, although I am missing the heavy barbell this gymnastic movement and moving correctly BS feels great!!!! My back doesn't hurt, my hip feels better. This is dangerous because I may just come out of retirement and go for the 2016 Olympic gymnastics team!!!! You heard it here first...
This morning we did 3 sets of 5 skin the cats. That was fun because it harkened me back to the playground days :). After that, we did 5 sets of 5 touch and goes. This is an exercise where you get in a handstand about 6-8 inches from a wall (beginner) and then straddle your legs down until your toes just touch the ground and straddle back up to a handstand. After a few attempts we all scaled to headstand touch and goes. This is done the same way except your head and hands form a tripod. That was easy. After that we did 15 minutes skill work on candle stands to pistols. I finished up with pistols to a low box. The next step will be no box :). Finally we wrapped up with 3 sets of 20 hollow body rocks. The midline gets a lot of attention during this phase. Oh, Scott I meant to tell you...I now have this saved on my phone so I should be getting some pictures posted up soon. Words are boring....
Words are boring and I stopped putting pictures up because you never participated!
