WEEKS 60-63
1 Dec
Arnold Press – 3 x 12 x 8.5kg
Weighted Pull ups – 3 x 6 x 15kg
Handstand practice – 2,3,2, 30 secs
I’ve been doing a 30 second wall handstand with flutter kicks and today I tried free handstands. I filmed it and it looked like a real mess so I need to work on straight body position and also awareness of what a good position feels like.

PPPu with feet against the wall – 4,5
PPPu negatives – 8,8
Planche Lean – 2 x 4 x 15 secs

Arnold Press – 3 x 12 x 8.5kg
Weighted Pull ups – 6 x 20kg, 6 x 15kg, 6 x 10kg, 8 x BW
Pike Pushups – 4 x 9
I tried mixing it up with a sort of drop set in pull ups, will go back to the normal exercises in a few weeks after a busy period.
2 WEEKS OFF – I tried planche on the 11th and I could barely do 4 seconds so I decided to give my body another break.
27 Dec
Advanced Tuck Planche – 4,14,12,12,10 secs
A personal best by 1 second, video below. I have already started training for the straddle planche but I’ll have another go at holding a straddle for a few seconds and modify other exercises.
