im not sure if anyone actually reads this
im gonna info dump anyways
as some of you may know, i do flying trapeze. its so cool i love it. we also do silks and stuff but we mainly fly and its so fun
there are weekly classes i go too they are an hour and a half and we work hard and chill and ive been doing it for 3 years (!!) there is also a holiday program i usually go to.
the thing is, the instructors were in america to work with their friend for the past 3 months so it wasnt on and ive lost all my strength and flexibility :[ and my palms are soft again
so for the past 2 days i did the holiday program which is 6 hours and today it was nice and cloudy and not cold and there was no wind so we were outside alot. we started with the mini rig which is like 3 or 4 metres high?? idk it was nice and fun and easy and i even got to do some catching aka hanging upside down and grabbing people who are flying at me. i also have to hold the bar for everyone else cuz im ✨experienced ✨. the bar is made out of steel. and has grip tape on it. very heavy. it was fine tho
then we went on the big rig and the platform is like 10 metres above the ground and the swing is much bigger and slower and you have more time to do tricks!! but holding the bar is SUCH A WORKOUT up there my arms are dying rn.
so now my hand really hurt and have some blisters on them i really need practice after such a long break lmao
me: *does a trick that looks kinda easy but is actually really hard with the timing and the swing and core muscles engagement*
me: *does it well and proud of myself*
my brother: thats so easy you just kick and arch and hold and then kick again
like bro you didnt even go up on the big rig so shut up
this whole thing probably made NO SENSE my thoughts are all scattered and confusing
go drink some water
