back atcha

Afternoon sessions at the dojo are getting more and more crowded! There were seven of us today (me still the only guy, besides Inoue-sensei), some of regulars and a couple of newbies. Actually with three people on each bag, doing two minute rounds, it's a good pace: two minutes on, 4 minutes off to get water, shadow with the mirror, etc.
Last ten minutes Sensei got inspired and decided it was time for some back work. We did slow lifts -- lying on your stomach lift your left leg and your right arm, turning your head and upper body to the right as much as you can, slowly lifting, holding, and lowering -- for a full five minutes. Then immediately did 250 superman bounces (still lying on your stomach lift both legs and arms and "bounce" rapidly 250 times.)
I suspect next time we'll be doing some similar torture for abs...
