Renewed Body Plan
It’s been a little over 1 year and 9 months since my last post on this list item, but I have just started a 3-month effort. I’ve been conscripted into the Michelle Bridges 12-Week Body Transformation (12WBT) program, which should help … Continue reading
Handstand Pushup Completed
It’s been a while since my last handstand pushup post, as I’ve had a holiday from the blog. During that period, I’ve been attempting HSPUs once every 1-3 weeks. For a few months now, I’ve been strong enough to complete … Continue reading
Body On Hold
It’s been four months since my last body post, for reasons I outlined in another post. There’s one major reason for the big gap that’s specific to this list item: guilt. I’ve felt guilty for not exercising and for letting … Continue reading

First HSPU Update
It’s been a week and a half since my last HSPU post, so I thought it was time to post an update. Apart from one three-day gap, I’ve been working on this every second day. First day, I tried doing … Continue reading
Body before Christmas
I’ve just passed the five-month mark on this list item. This post is less than the promised six weeks since my last post, for reasons I’ll discuss below. Since then, I successfully climbed a rope (a few times!) and have continued … Continue reading
Handstand Pushups
The Goal Do three handstand pushups (HSPUs), without assistance or support from a wall (or similar). Why? I watched the Opening Ceremony of the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games and there was a crazy-strong athlete ‘walking’ into the stadium on his hands, doing … Continue reading
