I'm starting to be able to "walk" my handstands!
Just something I've started doing over the past 6 months or so is handstand practice. I tend to play around with these when I'm filling in a few minutes at the end of a workout. Started out just trying to hold a handstand (against a wall) for 10 seconds has now progressed to walking that handstand side-to-side along the wall. It's been a fun way to end a workout...I feel like a kid again!!!
Still establishing 'benchmarks' this year. One of the blogs I follow posted a 2 Minute Benchmark challenge where you do each of the following for 2 minutes in this order: Double Unders (I admit, I'm still at Singles), Pull-Ups, Air Squats, Push-Ups, Burpees, and Sit-Ups. I took a 1 minute break between each movement and established the following counts today.
Single Unders: 240
Pull-Ups: 18
Air Squats: 53
Push-Ups: 31
Burpees: 19
Sit-Ups: 36
I think I have some pacing to work on with those burpees still, but I kept it moving.
My daughter turns 2 today so there will be cake after dinner tonight. She loves going to the local gymnastics studio so I think we'll be taking her there tomorrow to run around (...OK...I'll admit I like going there, too!!!). Santa brought her a little mini-trampoline and boy does that girl love to jump!
I love reading all of your motivating posts as we all get back into a routine (or new routine) after the holidays.
