GOOD PRACTICE

Todays practice was much better than most of the practices that we had this year and it was a good change.
At the beginning we ran outside while we raced the other people on the team so we did not have to run an extra lap around the park near the gym. After each person finished their laps, we stayed outside and jumped on the concrete. Unfortunately we have been doing this lately. I am not able to jump very well on concrete but we took 30 minutes from our practice to jump. We always have to wait for the younger kids to get out of the gym and work hard. Finally, after all of the teams left and we had the gym to ourselves we moved back inside.
From the start it seemed like Rudy was not in a good mood, but it was because he was just frustrated with the younger teams. We warmed up by just doing 5 backhandspring backs and did a work out exercise in between to get stronger in that skill.
Since we needed to change some things in our routine, we went to the pyramid and fixed it considering Kelly had broken her nose from it at the last competition. Even though we kept a lot of it the same, it has been hitting much better and I am very happy with it. Our back spot was not here today but we hit it with one of the coaches backspotting.
After we hit our pyramid we hit our stunts with a new skill and we were so happy because it was the first time my stunt had tried it and we hit it six times in a row. We were so happy! I cant believe we had hit and our whole group was amazed, even our coaches!
At the end of practice, I stayed after and filmed some of our tumbling and it was good, I landed my skills. Although I didnt get all of the footage I wanted, I got enough for now.
This practice was really good although we ended later than usual but it was still nice. (:
