flexagonTuesday: I went to my first ashtanga class in a long time (it was a 2nd series one) and it was really great. I got all sweaty and got my lotus pose (this only happens when I'm really warmed up), but at the same time it didn't kick my ass nearly as much as ashtanga used to. I may keep going to this one since it seems to feel so good, and make Monday my rest day. Decisions.
Wednesday: nothing because the Red Line had some kind of emergency and I couldn't get to acroyoga. Dreadful!
Thursday: 25 pullups at work with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rifmeister in the afternoon, and then went to acrobalance where two things went very strangely indeed. First, there were 29(!) students in the class -- the previous max was 15 and that was considered a crazy influx of people in its day. It was temporary too. Poor Z-dawg hardly knew what to do with such a giant group tonight, and the floor was crowded. That said, the other weird thing was that I totally did a back walkover for the first time in weeks, and then another one and then another one. Then I went off into corners to obsess/practice until I was so tired I started dropping myself on my head and had to stop... I probably did 15 of them tonight all told. It felt AMAZING. It's the first time I ever had them consistently enough that I could actually practice the move on my own, repeatedly. After the first one they didn't even overstretch my rib muscles... they felt good. :-) I am totally in love and want to do about eleventy trillion of them tomorrow instead of going to work.

Date: 2009-09-18 03:08 pm (UTC)For what it's worth, I am keeping the kicking leg on the ground until I can spot the place I want to put my hands. (I am on the ball of that foot and it's almost directly in front of the other foot.) I'm not sure what the next thing to work on is, but for now I just want to get this grooved well enough that I'm not losing it again all the time.
