Super tired today... I guess my weakness days are on Thurs and Fris.. I got to work out how to get more rest thou.. its seems almost impossible haha. With training ending so late and all. Mabye I should go take up meditation classes or something. I heard from a meditation book in the past that 1 hour meditation equals to 2 hrs of sleep =P. But I guess I'll end up loosing more sleep trying that in the long run lols
Anyway, something scary happened just now.. my thumbnail totally cracked when it knocked lightly against a cupboard. I was kinda shocked, it wasn't even a crack, more like a tearing? It was then that I realized that all my nails were totally transparent! Yes even the white part which comes out... thats scary man, this has never happened before.. I think I may be suffering from some kind of malnutrition... I should probably go see a doctor or something...
Training today was relatively okay, I won't call it good, I guess my performance is decreasing due to the fact that I'm getting freakishly tired right about this time of the week.
Handstand Spins and Handstand Switches
I did quite ok, if not better for my handstand switches, however in terms of my handstand spins I deproved greatly today... I could still spin fast but I couldn't really spin many times... which is a real drag. Have came up with some tips to help myself:
1. During rotation fully rotate the right shoulder all the way to spin 1/2 round. Do not just let it rest, if not a very short turn will be achieved.
2. Try to lift legs above and slightly past the head to get into a kind of invert position.
Hollowbacks
I didn't do a single hollowback, on another note I am getting less afraid of falling on my back haha. To my surprise it really doesn't hurt at all. I guess I gotta learn how to lower my legs slowly to do the hollowback... Train harder!
Handhops
Gosh I really can't figure out the 1 handed handhop. I am doing real fine with my 2 handed ones thou. For 1 handed... its really difficult. I guess I can't hold a 1 handed handstand for that long either.. Grind more!
BabyFreeze to elbow freeze
I did really bad for this today. I think its because I am very tired out doing the baby freeze walk just before this.. Just some tips for myself to remember:
1. Push with the elbow, not just lay it down
2. Place the elbow nearest to the head as possible
Babyfreeze Walk
Boy have I been messing this one up lately... my feet always touch the floor when I move from 1 position to the next. I think its because they are too near the ground due to the fact that my head is in a raised position. I shall do them with my head slightly tucked down to prevent them from touching the floor.
