    Sunday 31st January

    Was an off day but I was at home doing nothing so worked on a few things. Mainly tuck planche. I could hold it for about two seconds. I need to work on wrist flexibility so I've added some stuff to warmup for that. Will also do PPPU from floor from now on and work on forward lean. Also adding hollow body holds in there to help form on handstands. They can get a bit bendy when I'm tired

    This is stuff I should have been doing since the beginning but I didn't want to overwhelm myself with too much stuff starting off

    Also need to start working on flexibility for straddle. I can't get into the position to do a straddle L-sit from the floor at all. I want to be able to do a Stalder Press at some stage in the future

    Monday 1st February

    Handstand
    10m

    S/S
    8,8,8 PPPU
    5,4,4 Tuck FL Row + 5-10s hold at the end

    S/S
    10,8,5 Dips rto at top
    4, 3,3 L-Pullup

    Pushing strength in particular gave out after some of the stuff I was messing around with yesterday.

    Leaving the straddle version out for awhile and will work on flexibility for that instead

    I was on a snowboarding holiday last week for the first time. Shreddin' up the slopes so I was. I managed to not kill myself so that''s always good, well mostly.

    A little bit off pace today but not too bad. I should note that the 14s handstand PB involves kicking up near wall first and taking feet away so it's not a true freestanding PB. I figure once I can reliably hold 15s+ holds I won't have an issue kicking into one 100% free standing

    I started doing L-Sits at the end but cramped 7 seconds into first hold. Get a lot of quad & core usage snowboarding so I figure that's the reason. Six days on the trot with an average of 5-6hrs a day was tiring enough

    Had loads of stuff on the past week so didn't get too many opportunities to train. The main problem is I can only make the gym I am in the moment in the evenings so if I have anything on it's a missed session.

    I'm going to try flyefit macken st for a month and see if it suits. It's close to work and I can start work anytime between 7:30 & 10 so there is a lot more training opportunities. I'm guessing it's jammed during peak hours though

    *starting to do proper free standing HS now. Still kicking up a few feet from the wall but will try stay in the handstand without touching wall first if I can manage it. PB is now a massive 4 seconds :pac:

    Back levers have regressed a few progressions. Who knew not doing them in ages would have a negative affect

    I've actually been doing pairs rather than supersets the past few months so better start logging accurately I guess

    I was a bit rushed making it to the gym so just going through the motions on this one.

    I started with Tuck FL holds instead of rows but it wasn't happening with fatigue from ring false grip pullups. I'm going to do them for my higher rep pullups from now on so I pass the point of just barely being about to do MUs and get to stringing 5 or so together

    Felt like I had a bit of speed again on the sprints which is the first time in ages. Even had a touch of a lactate headache afterwards. They took it out of my legs a bit as well because I found the tail end of the deadlifts & the split squats hard

    I was flat on the powercleans and they ended up being maximal doubles. I had planned on doing a few more sets figuring they'd be reasonably handy.

    I thought the whole session would be sh*te then but the strength stuff turned out to be alright and the fitness levels were good in football. I did a vertical upperbody pair also because I won't be able to make the gym again until at least Monday. A touch harder after doing lower body first

    Fitness levels were decent enough for this also. I usually run out of steam pretty quick when I play after gym+football Wednesday night. I think it's the change of hour and emergence to Spring from Winter. Instant energy.

    I was going to do push press but there were no free platforms. They have a new calisthenics area in the gym with a decent place to do MUs now so messed around with those for a bit instead. I got a dodgey 2 in a row before pullup/dips. I think I'll drop the press for a bit and focus on MUs until I can get 5 decent ones in a row
