Well this past week or so has been epique for me. I pretty much just worked on lots of combos and transitions. I am getting closer to my goals for where I want to be to make my Demo Reel and even if I am not landing the big skills that I wanted, all the work on the harder skills has made me stronger in the other skills.
tested my ring strength by performing an Iron Cross test. Since I recently have learned a few tricks on anatomical lock outs to make the Cross more technical the Static hold feels more likely to actually be attainable then ever.
My Free Standing Handstand Pushups are becoming even stronger.
The skills I am having the most trouble with but That I am seeing major gains in are Devil Drop, Double Back, and Rudy. They are all getting stronger but they still need a lot of work. I'll take it with a Smile.
I did my first one of these the other day http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RwnlIPq_7A4&list=UU4WCfX4yWsUPRsoubrBObTg&index=29&feature=plcp
Some big changes are coming to the education of my work and I look forward to all that has to be done to accomplish it.
I don't want to post to many of my Combos just yet, I want it to be a surprise and I want them to look good.
As far as conditioning goes I have just been making sure that if I do anything I make it very difficult. So like today I did a bunch of reps of one free handstand push up followed by a pistol on each leg, once my form went to hell I did false grip pulls until my form went to hell and finished up with Full Range of Motion Leg Lifts.
I feel very strong and confidant at the moment and I look forward to stay that way.

chucking and getting pumped
So this week has been interesting so far.
I have had a lot of free time so I have been able to focus on my beginner teaching program, my personal training, my family/friends, and having a good time.
I am just that closer to getting my 720 kick, just have to keep it simple and not over think it. I was able to get a good system down for mounting a 3 to 4 foot wall and then doing a back full off of it. I don't like to just stand on top of something, stop, and then do a move. It doesn't make sense to me. I like to do it in motion. I'm all for taking a moment of stillness but I find that i feel more expressive doing it in combination with other moves.
I also have taken the liberty of being a little risky (how could I be more risky) and have been forceing myself to try harder moves and amp up the difficulty to see if I am even capable of comprehending the moves. So far it has worked out pretty good and the less I think about the moves and go into them with a good attitude and have fun with it I usually do pretty good.
My conditioning as of late has been sporadic but intense, again just reminding my body to keep my muscle strong.
Today I did a few sets of weighted rope climbs, front open tuck levers, and weighted pistols.
I am going to see if doing one sided training will help with developing my symetricalstuff. for example. I want to see if doing weighted pistols will help my back squat or if performing a one arm snatch will help my dead lift. also as I progress with my lever training I am curious as how it will affect my dead lift and back squat as well I know it will make my arms stronger but I am curious about the core strength rollover into the power lifting. I will also be doing high reps over a long period of time of a just below my maximum to get used to the load and eventually when I get back to testing myself again I hope it pays off. Also I may invest in some of Will Roberts training he had me do when I got to hang out with him and the hocky athletes. look up Ultra fit evosports http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0D6_TrE8Z_g I will be doing the leg training. The one sided stuff I want to see if it works well with over all fitness as well, so one armed push ups, one arm isometric pull up holds and so forth. I know it will help but I am curious if I only do the oen arm stuff without really doing any of the two arm or two footed stuff just how much it will make a difference.
Furthermore one of my friends is very interested in some personal training to get him in top condition for doing Acrobatics at a professional level. So I may be making workouts for him and posting them on the you tube channel so feel free to help yourself to those. I am getting closer to the day I want to start shooting film for my major demo reel I want to make. getting more excited with each day as it grows closer and the progression I am making.
I am nailing my cast away and today I did a successful three giants in a row, they werent pretty but I am happy none the less.
