Monday, December 15, 2003Successful skating session cut short!Yesterday we went to session, and I was really making some breakthrough improvements. I came up with some new moves that Otter said looked good, and I came up with a new one that's hard, but I was making progress with it. Also, I decided that I shouldn't wimp out on backwards skating, which I can...

As soon as it was over we RACED out to the car, because we didn't want Otter to be stranded at the rink after speed skating practice. As it turned out, we didn't have to worry, because there was an adult skate... Sign in to see full entry.posted by Bunny at 11:43 PM Comments (1) (link) The price of lifting weightsBoy, am I sore! It's not just my chest and under my armpits and arms, but even my neck feels stiff, although I'm not sure that's from lifting. I think I slept funny.

ESPN had some major technical difficulties, and I'm not just talking about their problems with the satellite feed, which...

It could have been disasterous, but fortunately most of the kids really had their acts together. We noticed that most of them had their own skates and they knew the rules. There weren't any kids racing or playing tag or doing other...

No free weights today, but I did: Low rows Cable cross-overs alternating with cable flys for the deltoids Behind-the-neck pull-downs "Plank position" (Yoga move that has you hold the top of a push-up for, like,...

I think I first introduced it to the house, but knock-on-wood I didn't get it too badly. On Sunday Otter decided he was feeling to yuccky for skating practice, but I told him no matter what I was skating outside and lifting weights, which I haven't done in three...

Between the nice weather outside and a bunch of things I would have rather done, I haven't been to the rink. But today after Otter's team practice we met him for session. Usually it takes at least a minute or so for me to get used to my indoor skates again. I have...

You know, the four steps up to the lane and the right timing for swinging your arm. It never occurred to us to say, "No thanks, Dad, we'll just do it any old way." We thought, "Dad's teaching us how to bowl!" We used to...

We hit the alley right in the quiet period between the end of afternoon senior leagues and before the Friday-night rush. At the end, we were the only bowlers there. It was cool! My game is coming back. I think I wasn't concentrating as much... Sign in to see full entry.posted by Bunny at 9:56 AM Comments (2) (link) |
