Dufisthenics

My shoulders and fingers got worked quite hard today as I alternated between mostly inverted shoulder movements and Eagle Loop pull ups.

I did handstand push ups, poorly, for the first time in quite awhile.  Damn those are hard if you try to keep your hands closer together.  I also did what I though was an interesting variation on one hand wall handstand holds.

In the past I would hold one side for around 30 secs and then flop back down on the ground.  This time I held one side for a shorter period of time, maybe 15 seconds, went back to two hands and then went solo up onto the other hand for another 15 secs.  Then I would switch back to two hands and hold it for another 30 seconds before coming down off the wall.  It was tough for me but felt like a real good way to work on inverted strength.
