Last Updated November 16, 2024 Fitness is important to me. On this page, I track some of my accomplishments. In particular, for October 27, 2024, I turned 55 and I set up a "fitness challenge" and decided to record some videos of some of the best things I could do so for later days I could use this is a benchmark to motivate myself. |

| Walkover | Back Walkover | OK, I'm not nearly flexible to do a real back walkover, so the next best thing is to do it off a wall. | Back Walkover | ||
| Tight Rope | Tight Rope | Sort of lose for a tight rope, but that makes it harder to balance, especially in the middle | Tight Rope | ||
| Summersault | Front Summersault | Front Summersault | |||
| Summersault | Back Summersault | Back Summersault | |||
| Handsprings | Standing Back Handspring | I really don't need the tumble track, but I use it for safety and to not injure my wrists. | Standing Back Handspring | ||
| Handsprings | Roundoff Back Handspring | Actually, I threw in a second back handspring, although didn't fully flow into it. | Roundoff Back Handspring |
