Conditioning
I've been keeping a pretty good conditioning schedule to keep my body in good shape and improve strength, especially for use in parkour. But oddly, I haven't practiced parkour itself in a while. It's funner to practice with others, I guess!
I had to take a break from conditioning a couple weeks ago, because a few pains that threatened to turn into injuries were building up. But after a week of rest, I was energetic, and the pains went away.
Nowadays, I can do 7 pull ups in a row maximum, with 10% bodyweight added via backpack. I can do 9 or 10 pull ups maximum without extra weight. A definite improvement since a few weeks ago.
I could probably be working harder on conditioning; but I need a more inspiring environment than this boring little town.
