flexagonMy body totally remembers how to do the straddle press off the stacked crash mats! We didn't actually do that in Bender's class today, but the stack was set up for the sake of another student and I kept sneaking over there to do my precious new thing.
Eight times. Basically never failed, in finding that first float off the mat. Never stuck it at the top, never minded that. So happy. I'm already thinking how to drill myself on Sunday, to slow down, to get the float and stick it right there in a straddle pike, to try to raise my legs carefully; but for tonight that doesn't matter. All that matters is that last Sunday wasn't a fluke.
I didn't get my press in 2013, but I did find my way onto the path.
