maidenfan Posted September 1, 2010 Author Share Posted September 1, 2010 08/31/10 Grease the Groove - quite a few handstands, some tucked planche/pushup practice, 100 pullups, 130 dips, 130 ring rows Road bike ride - ~27.5 miles in ~1:44:00 - Garmin acting up, rained both ways, but felt good to pedal hard. I'm finally figuring out my road bike problems. My bike should have come with a compact, 50/34 crankset so a big, fat dude like me could actually climb hills. For the life of me I felt like such a pussy so I ordered a new rear cassette which helped some. I figured out today my bike actually has 53/39 cranks on it - sheesh. The manufacturer pulled that old weightlifting trick on me and slapped a couple of 25's on when I wasnt looking I called Bianchi and they are making it right.

Lawn mower ciruits when I got home - more handstands/walk on hands and hangboard pullups 09/25/10 Pullups and handstands at work. 1:25:00 very hard road bike ride when I got home Sucks that summer is already done.

maidenfan Posted October 8, 2010 Author Share Posted October 8, 2010 Been doing lots of handstands/walking, rope climbing, pullups and some paralette L-Sit to tucked planche holds (trying to be able to do tucked planche pushups on my paralettes - very hard). I also started wearing a 10lb pack with my pullups and rope climbing - getting on a plateau. Also did a couple of barefoot (VFF) trail runs at Mt. Talbert (1 hour - 1100ft of climbing) and Hoyt Arboretum (47 mins - 607ft of climbing) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maidenfan Posted October 14, 2010 Author Share Posted October 14, 2010 Lots of handstands/walking on hands, pullups, neck work, kettlebell snatches and rope climbing the last few days. Did a nice hard 2.5 mile hike the other day and mountain biked up on Mt. Hood today. I'm getting quite a bit better walking on my hands now. I'm now able to breath a bit and still keep my balance and regularly get 10 - 15 foot walks in. My pullups have slowly gotten better as I'm now starting my GTG off with sets of 10 and 8 vs. sets of 5 and below. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
