Rest Day

Very tired from 2 consecutive all nighters, woke up at 1 in the afternoon.
Weight:176.4
Had a birthday party at my cousin's.
Went out for a half-hour test run of my new feuyues. They stick very well, and they teach good form. I just corrected my precisions, walked around 25 feet on a rail, and I performed my first climb-up(that was probably because of my conditioning)! I did a wallrun, pulled my head over the wall, got both my arms over the wall and grabbed the other side, slowly got my stomach on top of the wall, performed a dip until my arms were locked,  swung my left leg over and on top, and stood up. All in all, it took me probably around 20 seconds, so I definitely need to work on conditioning some more.

Fast food yesterday :(
Very tired today, skipped football workouts, might go to Hampton after chess camp.

Great day today. Had fun @ chess camp, discovered I could get on the roof of a building (didn't do it), and had an awesome hour of parkour at Hampton. Practiced, precisions, rail balance, monkeys, climb-ups some (still can't do a climb-up without placing my arms on top  >:( any help?), and did some workouts (dips, pullups, assisted muscle-ups, front lever progression). The highlight was probably when a little kid asked me how i got on top a wall when I was just chillin on a wall after a climb-up. Just felt pretty good.
Weight:179.2 >:( >:( >:(

Open Gym today. Practiced front flips, back flips a little bit, and some kongs. Getting much better at front flips, almost ready to start them on regular land.

Tiring day today. Sean Nelan came over and another friend, we had lots of parkour practice. Went up to Ridgely Middle School and safely got on the roof and just walked around. Got down, took some footage, practiced some vaults, and had a great time. Went home and just chilled, did some workouts (I benched 135), and practiced handstands(I am now going to practice handstands more, especially on rest days. Record was 3 seconds free, about 10 against a wall. Just added that to goals). Overall, a great parkour/tricking day, some very good exercise, and did something I would have never been able to do before now (get on the roof of Ridgely).
