Is your back better?? today I did 2 x 30 seconds bakasana then I shaved and prepared for the last 30 seconds of handstand ... I did 45 seconds and the last 5 seconds where away from the wall --- my first 5 sec. of a real handstand -- yeeehhaaa :-) Challenge completed ... :-)

Broke it down a bit the last days 19/10 - 60 seconds handstand agains wall - 60 sec. skorpion against wall 20/10 - 2 x 30 skorpion against wal 21/10 - 6 x 10 sec bakasana - 2 x 60 sec. skorpion agains wall - 60 + 30 sec handstand against wall 90 seconds left ........ countdown ...

Hi Alpina, is your back better?? Hope it's nothing serious. I found a bit for some more exercises, mainly skorpion-stand against wall and headstand .... so I might push through the 30 min. this month ... but if you wanna regroup and start over in November, I'm in and will be there @ your side (even if live might be a bit…

did another 3 x 10 seconds of Bakasana and 60 seconds Skorpion-agains-wall, this time with only one toe against the wall most time and 2-3 seconds completely free :-)

Hi Alpina, I did a bit (3x10 seconds of Bakasana) today and the day is not yet finished so I'm not giving up on any of my goals (not anymore) => pushing through that wall :-) 13 days left incl. 2 weekends so lets go :-)

congrats :-) only got handstand agains wall 60 seconds skorpion-stand agains wall 4 x 30 seconds done gotta get sleep - Maschinenfest part 2 :-)

Had no time the last days and will maybe get 5 min. done on the weekend. But found this one http://www.dharmayogacenter.com/library/asanas.php?pasanas=496&pcat=5 so a lot to do :-) Wrists are o.k., but I feel that the missing strength in there is blocking my pose-stability (arms and shoulders could do better if ...) Nice…

ohh yes it is a challenge, cause I'm normally a bit of a lacy guy that starts things, get's frustrated half way cause he sees no big steps ahead and then cancels stuff. Second, I'm a bit of a coward, so doing a scorpion-stand with feet against a wall is one thing, but being to scary to get those fu** feet away from the…

today I had a bit of time and reminded me how important warmups are, so I started each session with 5 Sun Salutations and some extra wrist-streching. All is spreaded over the whole day bakasana: 30 + 30 + 20 + 20 + 20 sec. headstand: 30 + 30 sec. normal heandstand: 60 sec. and first time: vrischikasana (scorpion stand)…

that is a goooood inspiration, I have a book on handbalancing where the strenght is marked as the most important part, this is not only arms, but especially wrists ... with the peacock pose my left elbow always glitches out to the side, somehow ... but we will see @the end of the month ... still 24 days to go :-) yesterday…

hold on to it ... daily exercises will show their effect soon .... sometimes pausing a day gives the muscles the time to build up bakasana only today: 20 + 40 + 30 sec. => I have to better my breathing while doing poses ....

good job I only had little time today, so 60 seconds handstand agains wall that's it ;-)

I have added a ticker from tickerfactory.com to track my stands today was a good day, not too muc work, so I could spend some time to spread the stands throughout the whole day 1 min. handstand agains wall 6 x 10 seconds bakasana 2x 30 sec. handstand agains wall yes, I feel my wrists and arms :-)

congrats, I made it to 60 seconds handstand agains a wall and 90 seconds 'normal' headstand, but there will be a couple of days this week I won't have time to do anything ... Adjusting your goals to 1 pound/week is good, that are about 2 kg a month and that is a lot .... doing paleo/primal you really will get into trouble…

of course I heard that, we see it everyday on TV *LOL* ohhhh that is noo good, 1200 calories is called starving, not dieting - you stress your body with that so your cortisol-level will get up, wich means your body will put all food into fatdepots you got yourself deep into the hungermethabolism hard and monotonic workouts…

i'm on primaleating since june this year and I love it ... total different thinking ... I also do it @work so I had all those stupid comments one can have I lost about 22 lbs in those last primal months so everybody can see the changes, still they don't understand it :-) So, if you need some fellowmen, add me greetings…

hey, I thought russians go out into the frozen tundra every day for a walk in shorts only ;-) I'm from belgium, that is nearly mediteranean in contrast to russia *LMDO* (Laughing my dentals out) ohh I love your humor :-) Btw. are bolts and nuts carbs or vitamins ?? Cause I'm on primal(paleo)-eating and yes, I'm male so you…

Than it'll be the two of us for this challenge I can't do those poses either, that actually is the crazy part of the challenge :-) I can do the normal and the yoga-headstand for about 60 seconds I can do handstand agains a wall for about 60 seconds my frog/crow pose lasts 10 seconds underarmstand agains a wall .... I think…

Should we try 30 minutes then and include yoga-headstands and levers??

wooooowww what a difference => 161 lbs is A HELL OF A LOT :-) congrats :-)

No fellow hand-balancer ??? :sad: :sad: :sad:

you look awesome - :-)

I was 124 kg and I'm now 88-89 kg, so it is possible to hit under 100kg and stay there, took me 2+ years. If you want support add me as a friend (support like we support each other, not I support you :-))

woowww, nice pics, WITH a face :-)

9/15 5 minutes (2 underarm side, one underam, 2 high) :) DONE 60/60 =D THANKS tbellamy1 for the trigger => I love planks and I didn't know before :-)

good work :-)
