Black hole sun, wont you come..

Took the weekend to recover my sore body, partly because well, I felt that I needed to rest my legs mainly. And I worked nights all weekend. So I wasnt quite fit for any training.

Today however I did hit the gymnasium to train some conditioning, and some flips. Worked a little on my wallflip (progressing slowly but surely), backflip, frontflip, and trying to learn the sideflip. Also worked some on my backhand spring. Due to my legs being pretty sore after hard training the past week, I felt I had trouble commiting 100% in my jumps, thus not giving me the best results. Tried to work some on my double kong, but my legs was just to sore to give me enough power for any good kongs. So I took it pretty easy. Felt good to just move, and play around, and clear the fear out of my mind more and more when it comes to flips.

I felt a moment of despair today. It felt like I was getting a bit tired of my flip training. Like it doesnt give any results (after failing, and faling over and over on my side flip atempts). But I also came to realize, that a few months agoo. I couldnt do backflips outside. I was afraid even when I did the backflips on a mat(rug?). Now I can do it on the hard and thin mat(rug?) in the gymnasium. Dont even need the thick one. And I dont even hesitate. Same with my backhand spring, I dont hesitate (atleast not on the thick one) anymore.

I also have done some front flips from height outside onto grass. Didnt dare that either a few months agoo. So when I reconsider, I have made progress. I just have to be patient I assume and my progress will come.

Its just frustrating, to see people in tutorials demonstrate various flips and stuff, and it looks so easy. Then when you try, you realize its not as easy as you think.

Also working on a thick rug, absorbs alot of power, thus making harder to get good power in jumps and such. Safer, but harder.

Oh well. Tomorrow is a new day, and im going to keep working on my sideflips and backhand springs. By the summer im sure I have alot of stuff I can and dare to do on grass.

Besides the acrobatis, I feel my strength in going in the right directon. Tried to work some on my muscle ups today. But I still have a very hard time with them. I manage to pull off a few if I "jump" into the transition. Using my legs and so. Guess its atleast progress. Also been working some precisions outside in the forest, between rocks. Really interesting now as there is alot of snow and ice outside. Have to be very careful. But its good training!

Got today and tomorrow of work too. Feels really good to have alot of spare time to hang out with my fiance, doing stuff at home, and working out.

Also got some sun today. Felt awsome. The daylight stays longer now. So we are going towards brighter times. Cant wait for the spring/summer..
