how to know you've had a decent workout

[frobzwiththingz]

Last night, i went to silks practice, and i seemed to have a decent amount of energy; I was able to do long routines (~5 minutes) repeatedly throughout the evening. Discovered a way to get stuck when geting out of the fish-cradle rollup which can happen if you do the fish-cradle rollup directly after one of the fabric-spreading moves. I did this several times last night, need to figure out how to avoid it.

Then drove home, to a driveway full of heavy snow. Shoveled out the front part of it, where the plow ridge was. Nice heavy heart-attack-and-throw-your-back-out sort of snow.

Then off to bed.

You know you had a good workout when your arm cramps up from brushing your teeth.

Er, ow.
I am totally living on Advil today. My shoulder is full of hate! On that note, in fact, more ice.

You were unstoppable last night. Everytime I looked up you were doing your long program! But I did have to help you out with one of those irreversible foot wrap thingies. lucky you weren't 17 feet in the air when it happened. Go Frobber!

Myself? Coming down with colds really zaps one's stamina. Oh well, there's always next week : P

rigging the silks

[(Anonymous)]

Hey there,

I just found your blog when I was doing an online search for aerial silks rigging info. I've been training for about 6 months now with teachers and friends and now I'm ready to start training on my own as well so I'm not so dependent on other's time and equipment.

Can you recommend any sites that can help me with indoor and outdoor rigging requirements. I have fabric, but I'm clueless about how to be safe with my rigging and what all I need.

Thanks,
