I've done nothing but study all day today and I feel like I haven't retained a single stroke of the kanji that I've been practicing. It's kind of hard to get out of the week off routine and start taking the studies seriously again. Since it's already seven the only thing I have enough time left to do is finish folding clothes and turn in so I can start the pre-test routine tomorrow morning. Waking up at five is rough enough as it is, but brewing coffee and forcing in a few dozen kanji before going to school is just shy of a miracle at this point.
On a constructive note, I've set up my calendar with the training objectives that I have worked out to build up to a full planche push up. Right now I'm struggling with the whole balance issue. I'm not used to supporting my body weight with just my hands and my core strength is really sub par. It's crazy how hard it is just to get up to double digits in seconds. I also have a hard time pulling into the position without starting in a forward pike with my legs out and then pulling my legs under and out, which doesn't make sense to me at all. I'm hoping when I lose a few pounds and build some upper body strength the balance will come naturally.
