Last night I done my first planche to handstand and I manged to back into a planche. I tried going back into a handstand from the planche but my arms collapsed :P. It was funny, painful on the forearms but I enjoyed it.
Afterwards I decided to do a workout that works the entire body so I crawled along the livingroom floor with my knees and body very close to the floor. The excercise itself is exhausting. I won't lie but I can get abit lazy when working out. I mean I understand that taking it slower is better but without pushing for that extra press up or that extra pull up I will never know how much further I can take my body.
Training my body is important and I enjoy doing it but training my mind is also important, being motivated and learning to focus all my strength into the excercise. So yer I will push myself abit further and keep motivated :).
Another thing as well I was out doing abit of Parkour. The area I was training in was across the road from a pub and next to the dock. While I kind of kept to myself I seen a few guys outside the pub pointing and nodding their head as if they had never seen someone do Parkour before :P. So I decided to do a Front tuck from standing of a 3foot ledge. I said to myself I wasn't going to take my tricking outside till my 17th birthday (29th March). But I went for it anyway and I landed it so clean and so quietly. In the past when I have done front tucks of obstacles I have landed with such a bang or over roatated. The gymnastics and trampolining have came in handy :). So I done a front tuck of the small wall twice landing it better than I have done before no over roatating no heels banging of the concrete.
In the past if that had happened I would of done it about 20 times to impress the guys watching but instead I decided to warm down and go home. Even though I am progressin it's not about showing off and impressing people I mean it's cool for people to observe what your doing but I don't ask them to they just come over and watch out of their own curiosity.
