Good Behavior: W10 D1

The last couple weeks have been eventful; moving back to the mainland, RnR's wedding, got a beast of a cold from the travel and climate shock.  Haven't worked out for two weeks.  Back to it.

Kneeling Pushups
2x30
1x19

Woo!  Feels good!  I love that returning-to-glory feeling.  Rep loss was expected, and I'm really happy that I didn't lose very many.  It was definitely tough to get that second set of 30, but I got it :)

Knee Tucks
1x20
1x15
1x12

I think I have the weakest hip flexors on the planet.  Lost a lot of reps in two weeks, and my hip flexors are destroyed.  Back to work indeed.

Good Behavior: W9 D3

Straight Bridges
1x17
2x15

Wall Handstands
1x49
1x50
1x50

Still well short of the time goal, but I'm getting so much better at the balancing without even trying!  I find myself start to drift from the wall- not in a falling sort of way, but rather drifting into a fairly stable feeling free handstand.  One that I can hold for maybe half a second before I remind myself that I can work on the balance AFTER I get the strength to meet the time goal.

Good Behavior: W9 D1

Pushed D1 to Tuesday this week because Monday I had a lot to do and was exhausted from Sunday fun and short sleep.  I'm still exhausted today after another short night, but I don't want to skip a workout.  Let's see what I can do.

Kneeling Pushups
2x30
1x23

Knee Tucks
3x25

The last five reps or so were a bit wobbly, but I'm counting them.

I feel like I've never progressed so slowly on any exercise ever.  But, there *is* progress.
