Boxed 3 - 12 minute rounds with core work in between. Drank too much last night but I believe this workout would have sucked regardless. The boxing was too much for wrists and forearms today. Hurt

30 minutes of handstands: 15 minutes on the parallettes with some L-sit to bent arm presses to handstands. 15 minutes of handstand facing wall and rolling out. I also spent 5 of those minutes working straight-arm press to handstands with my shoulder into the wall for support. WOW, I GOT A FEW. That was a real confidence booster, I am definitely making progress.

Inverted PU's on rings: 3x5 (pulled up, held, slowly lowered)

Tuck planche holds: 8x8 seconds (I was supposed to do the PPPU's with feet on the wall. Oh well, it's been a long weekend!)

Standing wheel rollouts: 4x6 (getting easier)

Tuck back lever holds: 8x8 seconds (I extended to a full back lever, HOLY SHIT, I can do this now!!!)
Glute-ham raises: 5x5 (I definitely feel these in my hamstrings, but they're not that hard.)
