The new year and feeling good

The morning of New years eve I went with my cousin to the gymnastics facility and started out with an extra long warm up of active isometric stretching (I noticed that when I was at my prime middle of last year I was doing quite a lot of active stretching so I figure why not give it a go again) I worked on my flares a bit more but inner thigh of my left leg was very sore and I felt it getting tighter with each swing so I kept the skill training to a minimum and focus on the hip circle slide and definitely helped my flare lift and shape. Feeling satisfied with that and knowing for the next day and a half I wouldnt have much time to train I decided to torch my core with my ending workout.

Inverted sit ups with weight
Leg lifts
GHR extreme isometric hold
L sits
V ups, tuck ups, hollow holds

And it was good



On Monday I did my normal warm up with dynamic leg swings and Isometric holds again.

Skills of the day
Giants: did 6 only did 2 successfully
Reverse flyaways: not my day but had fun falling a lot
Double fronts off tumble track: very good really finding my take off better
Round off double back on tumble track: again very good focused on setting higher And pulling the toes over the head.

Conditioning involved the basics
2 sets of each
Plyo pushups, ring dips
V ups and body levers
frog jumps
DH pull ups


Tuesday

Morning consisted of my first attempt since my knee injury to practice some very basic Tricking.  So again after an extensive warm up I worked on both sides of my Pop 360 outside crescent, Tornado Kick, 360 Split Kick, and Narabongs and a nice stretch to finish.    After work I warmed again by jumping into the pit and moving through it (if you don't know what I mean by that then just do it)  Worked on my double fronts and rudy's off the tumble tracke to the pit and to a crash mat.

Workout of the day

4 times through this series

Rope climb to top from sitting position holding pike to the top
20 jumping lunge switches

Heavy Stretch to finish


Wednesday

Before teaching class I decided to go on the roof of the gym and do some isometric kick holds always fun on a sunny afternoon. Video of that later.

This was supposed to be my break danceing day but I just didn't feel it, my shoulder was giving me the  "just try and push me and see what happens" sign so I decided against it.  I went for a low impact tumbling pass insted on the tumble trac  Round Off, Back Hand Spring, Double Back Tuck to a crash mat in the pit, I landed 4 of them.   it's the first tumbling I have done since my injury and though it's low impact made me feel awesome (had nothing to do with the Might Morphin Power Rangers Electro Remix on my Ipod at all).

No main workout today just going to rest this one.
