Handstand 20 minutes of work, about 10 minutes each - I cannot believe how hard this was!! I just found it so difficult to fling my legs to the wall, the pictures are where I climbed my legs up the wall haha!
L-sit/tuck l-sit
I'm doing a tuck l-sit my feet are off the floor they're just really close... ideally we would have taller handles! Mike is doing an l-sit.. I'm not strong enough to do that yet!
Progressions to back lever
The idea for this one is to be able to hold your body out flat! It takes a lot of strength and balance.. think I'll be doing the progressions for a while! Mike is doing something called 'skin the cat' here and I've no idea why it's called that!
Frog stand
This was my favourite! Probably because it was the only one I could do haha!
This left me feeling totally beat up the next day! In fact today I'm still mega sore! I'd definately reccomend trying it it was a lot of fun but pretty frustrating cause it was so difficult, for me anyway!I got another work update today... My bold move paid off! I'll be going back tomorrow with my correct pay and will be getting back paid, phew! I did not want to go back on the dole!!
ok so frogstand looks like i'd just about fall over no matter what. and handstand looks like fun :)
ReplyDeletecongrats on getting the correct pay!! must be such a relief
Yay on the work news! i did gymnastics as a kid and could do a handstand in an open space but never against a wall- I was too scared of wacking my feet! At least in an open space if I felt myself toppling I could tuck into a forward roll :)
ReplyDeleteThat looks like fun, and a heck of a lot of work. Did something similar to the frogstand in my first attempt at yoga last night. Not as easy as it looks. Good job with the hardcore cross-training!
ReplyDeletenice frog stand. and those look hard! i'm tired just looking at the pics!
ReplyDeletei'll try the handstand and frog stand today;-)
You two are a couple of studs! I couldn't even attempt the handstand!
ReplyDeleteThat body weight training looks great! I would love to try a head stand but I'd probably fall flat on my face. Great news about the job, so glad its worked out well for you x
ReplyDeleteWoohoo! So glad to hear everything worked out for the best at work.
ReplyDeleteYou guys are awesome :) ...love the pics!
