I bought these off fb market place for cheap hope they will help me progress faster

I think I’m finally starting to understand the position for tuck front lever a bit better. This is my latest attempt using the band so that I could focus more on retraction and keeping the arms straight. I took the video on a different angle to try and better capture the position. I think it’s looking better?

Tried this from Instagram after my attempts at stalder press the other day. Working from pancake push ups, to push up through the arms and get the hips up. Here you're meant to jump back to chaturunga (bent arm plank). I can only do that from a frog pose or a high crow at the moment. Hopefully this is a stepping stone to the pike press position if I can progress to get my hips high enough.. Even being able to push up to straight arms from the Initial bent arms pose would be a good sequence to try. The yoga block was a good prop. The push up handles actually made it a bit harder to get the Initial lift off.

I went for a walk Saturday and Sunday. Today i was really pleased with myself. I live in Scotland and the sun rarely shines. It was a gorgeous day today. I went out in my back garden to read and as soon as i sat down it bothered me that i hadn't done my work out yet. So i did the beginners workout in the garden then read. I was so pleased i had that reaction. I then went for a walk in the early evening when it was cooler.

I've just kept to the beginners programme yesterday and today. Although i'm slightly correcting my moves. I focused more on concistancy.
