see, i can only do about 8 pushups (if i'm doing 3 sets) before my arms and chest get too tired (and it's clearly them, not my abs, that are giving out) so i don't think i need anything harder. when i can do 3x12 i want to elevate my feet, toward the eventual handstand pushup goal.
the glute/ham natural thing looks amazing! i want to start doing ham curls for my heel hang on trapeze http://impactartists.co.uk/images/Aerialists/ulali2.jpg i am close to being able to support myself like that but not quite there.
doing curls for knee stability is smart. they are a backup for the acl and that's another reason i should probably do them.
squats don't do ANYTHING for jumps? hmmm. maybe i should just have a front handspring practice. sadly equinox's fitness classrooms both have wood floors (my old gym's was padded) so i don't feel comfortable tumbling there.
