d) ACCESSORY WORK:

  • Spend 10 Minutes practicing Handstand Walking

Practice with five foot increments, much like the markers we just used in Open 17.2. Inside of this practice session, or goal is for quality movement, not max distance. Rest as needed between attempts, and aim to stretch out our distance – shoot for longer unbroken walks if we are proficient in the shorter distances. This is not measured by distance, but quality.

If we do not yet have handstand walking, let’s build familiarity from the inverted position.
