apfelsingail for this one:
I don't mind that I'll never get the one-arm, but I'd sure like control over leg variations like she has. As for body control, I'm astonished -- the bit from 5:00 to 5:10 reminds me of something I saw Rebecca Stronger do in a routine once, and nobody else, ever.
I'm happy when, very occasionally, I can hold a tuck handstand, or a straddle pike one. I did this last Thursday:
I'm going to try to start getting more photos of my handbalancing -- they're kind of astonishingly instructive (the body position that feels THIS way looks like THAT, wtf?) and there is progress to document. Incremental, molasses-slow progress, but still.
