Handstand walk tech work self directed.  Spent anywhere from 5-30 min
depending on the skill of the movement you want to work on and how it
feels based on previous work.  Can also just do static work if you'd
like.  Report in how you spend the time and how much.

24 mins working on walking

6 mins working on kicking up to static holds

a couple 15' walks

a handful of 10' walks

lots of 6' walks

Running felt great.  Pull ups went as usual.  Push ups felt worse than last time, fatigued fast.  I'm guessing this is d/t being on the bike so long yesterday basically in the top of a plank position.  I shaved off time on the second round by doing smaller quick sets on the push ups (went from 5's to 4/3/3).  Thank you for the handstand time.  This skill is still a wonder to me.  It's something I never imagined I'd be able to do and really don't want to lose.  At the same time I find progress fleeting and am often confused on what brings me success vs. struggle.  Today felt about average for the last 6 months or so.  And average is great!  Way better than a struggle day.  Working on kicking up to static holds versus planting my hands first.  Hopefully video says more than my words.  Thanks!
