yellowmoomba- You would rock the handstand pushups. 
I did them against a wall but did not use the wall (just for security). It has been a long time since I have done them so they were hard.
KelJu- Thanks I love pullups, it's one movement I never get sick of.

Hardcore, dude.
I saw a guy doing them one time on a chin bar. That was insane. 7 feet off the ground and inverted? No thanks. Was cool to watch, though.
fufu- In one of Jackie Chans first american movies (I can't remember the name of it at the moment) there is a scene where he is in his apartment- training. One of the things he does is a few freestanding handstand pushups while doing the splits- so cool. I'm going to try to find a clip of that.
Wow!

I love Jackie Chan. I've seen tons of his movies.
Some of them are hilarious.
Master with cracked fingers, and there was one other...I forgot the name. Wait, I think it was called, "Team Power Force" or something.

Excellent w/o Brother BB!!!
Thanks guys.
Wow! I just found out my mom is turning 67 not 66 in a few weeks- which means she is doing pretty good for her age! Many of you may remember that I was helping her put together a training program to build her strength up and work on her overall conditioning. Well it's been two months since she started and has she ever improved! She said she feels really great about how things are going and looks forward to each workout. Talk about motivation.
These are the exercises she does.
1) pushups
When she started she could only do them on her knees 5 reps max- now she can doing 12 regular ones or 8 regular ones with knee ins!
2) planks
Started- 30 seconds now- 1 min 15 seconds
3) Step-ups
Started 10 reps each leg now- 12 reps each leg with 20# DB's
4) Bulgarian squats
Started- 5 reps each leg with just her BW now 8 reps each leg with 20# DB's
5) One-arm DB clean and press
Started with 5 reps each side with 10# DB now she does 8 reps each side with 20#
6) One arm rows
Started with 5 reps of 10# now 10 reps x 25#
7) BW rows
Started 5 reps now 12 reps
8) One leg RDL's
Started could do one without falling over now 5 reps each leg with 20's
9) Reverse fly's
Started with 3# x 5 reps now 5# x 10 reps
10) Glute bridges
Started with two legs at 5 reps now she does them single legged x 8
11) Bird dogs
Started 15 seconds max now 33 seconds
12) Standing calf raises
Started BW x 20 now single legged x 15 holding 25# DB
13) Chinups
Started could do 2 now she can do 5
Other things
Lateral hops over object/ hops
Started was afraid when jumping from one side now not afraid and lands soft and in control
What she used to be able to hop up to with two legs she can now do with one leg!
Stairs (outdoor stairs)
She used to walk up the stairs x 5 now she walks up and then runs up x 10
In general she is stronger and has better balance and agility. Her knees used to buckle in when she did bulgarian squats or when she did one-legged RDL's but not any more. Her strength in her core has greatly improved which shows when she performs her pushups- she is straight as a board. I tell her she should join the army because her pushups are so good.
She also runs or skates x 2 a week...

Cool.
That's awesome, at 67 years old.
My mom has finally come around and started a better lifestyle. She is asking me all sorts of questions about diet and she was worried about bone density decreasing with her age, so I told it her was time to do some resistance training. I'll be making a program for her too, maybe you can help me out.
