alan launder weekend

alan came in on friday.  training-wise nothing much on friday.  pretty much the same old circuit stuff to get ready for the clinic/vaulting saturday.  alan, his wife jenny, joel, and i went to assagio’s in hawaii kai for dinner.  great time.

saturday was a great day.  i helped organize a clinic at iolani with joel featuring alan launder as our clinician.  i participated in a few of the running and plant drills.  i learned a lot about the teaching progression for the vault.  took about 10 stiff pole popups from 4 lefts and about 5 bent pole from 5 lefts.

today was supposed to be my vault day, but we had trouble getting a facility to use.  it’s been very troubling that no one in the state will open up thier facility to be used.  especially for a clinic with alan launder.  instead, we spent our time going over the beginner to bubka film with alan.  so far, this experience it has been incredibly insightful and i have learned a lot about the vault from an international perspective.

stupid ankle

i somehow rolled my ankle tonight.  i was just bouncing trying to warm myself up, and must have landed a bit strangely.  it’s not that bad, just annoying.

track: i was not able to get a track workout in due to the track being occupied.  the next few weeks will be a bit ackward trying to get onto a track since the high school season starts soon.

gymnastics: since i rolled my ankle in the first five minutes of my warmup, i didnt get a whole lot of variety in my workout today.  did the normal warmup, lots of rolls, handstands, and the like.  i did get a pretty decent workout in considering.  i spent a whole lot of time on the tramp landing on my back, front, and seat.  lots of time workout on a ball out.  other than the tramp, i spent almost an hour working on improving my handstands.  another 20 mins on the tramp again and that was it.
