Yeah...
But I don't really understand how it works that out.
I don't suppose it matters, though.
I was watching the kids do diving today. I think I might try that. They had a sign up about masters diving. I suppose it will end up being people over 18 or something like that. People who were formerly competitive but now do it just for fun. Or not. Will see.
My back still hasn't come entirely right. It always did feel like my weakest link. I would get to a certain point and my inability to stand / squat the weight up limited my lifts. So I needed to strengthen my squat. And then my inability to work my front squats harder without injuring my back became my weakest link. I think because at the end of the day I lack the ankle flexibility required to keep a properly upright torso under the bar.
So... More bodyweight stuff is in order. And then if I'm working on posture stuff and pullups and pushups and so on I might as well do handstands and backbends and I might as well have a go at diving. Yeah. Why not. Seems you don't always have to go bounce bounce on the springboard. And you dont always have to go head first, neither. And there are progressions. So... Yeah. Once my back is a little bit better (so I can work on my leaning forwards and backwards then falling into a dive which seems to be one of the earliest skills) then I think I'll give it a go.
I mean... Some stairs. A jump. Pull yourself out of the pool. Have a bit of a rest. That sounds more like me than kick kick kick kick kick kick kick kick kick kick with people who have ridiculous lung capacity after years and years and years and years of it...
