I've decided I hate these. Of course that means that I must not rush them. Perhaps by the end, I will love them.
Wall Handstands
1x1 min 25 sec
1x55 sec
1x53 sec
Really starting to make strides here. 2-3 more weeks and I'll have it in the bag.

Good Behavior: W14 D2
Half Pullups
1x8
1x6
1x5
Also, 1x6. Re-read some Convict Conditioning today; the part about pullups. It says to use the grip that seems to "help you" the most. So after my 3 working sets, I switched to an underhand grip and easily cranked out another 6. Probably could have done 8. No question that for me the underhand grip is easier (something I've known for years), but I prefer to work the overhand grip in my sets because it is extremely challenging. Interesting note: These half pullups are blasting my biceps (especially that 4th, underhand grip, set) like I don't remember pullups ever doing.
Half Squats
2x50 (Progression Standard!)
Woo! Checked myself in the mirror; I think I might have been an inch or two shy of actual half squats last time. Also focused on knee alignment today, making sure they didn't start tracking in. My hip flexors and inner thighs feel punished!

2x20 (Progression Standard*)
1x8
*One or two reps on the second set had the tiniest wobble, and there were a few reps throughout both sets that probably could have been slower. Gonna hit these again next week and make 'em perfect.
Flat Bent Leg Raises
1x35 - Didn't check book before working out today. Book calls for sets of 30, not 35.

Hit the standard on the first try, but it wouldn't hurt to stay here another week. Very burny. We'll see :)
