Wheel

A few weeks ago I did yoga with a friend and couldn't do wheel.

I just tried again.  My hips and everything to my shoulders go up ... but my arms can't lift.  This is what the pose is, from YogaJournal.com:
 I don't think I have the triceps for it.  So, I need to work on my arm strength.  Tonight I did a ton of planks and everything so I guess my arms could have been tired, too, but I am betting I don't have the triceps for it ...yet.

On the plus side!! Tonight I did a crapped-out, first-time version of Shoulder Pressing Pose.  My feet got this much off the ground -- |     | (quite literally).  But I did it!!!!  Which means I can do it again, and again, and more correctly each time.  Woot!!
