Me too! 😀 It’s soooo weirdly compelling and satisfying to whirl the yoyo around – zen-like! ---

Been a couple weeks, but I do squeeze in some reps here and there and enjoy the grind. I also just put on some fresh 1st Class Kitty Regulars. ![20210803_200344](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/6/4/1/6414f2994d979bad234100f1907f3084beb564c5.jpeg) ---

Has anyone tried to loop while holding magazines/books under their armpits? I heard the tip from another competitor. Doing this should improve your form, all the movement comes from the hands and wrist and holding an object under your armpits should help isolate this movement. ---

I don’t know about mastered, but thank you. I’ve started adding in different tricks, but it goes downhill pretty quickly. I guess that’s why we practice. ---

[![]( " - YouTube") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2jah943VPB4) Here is a trick that I like to do. It’s very simple. I just throw an around the world and the other yoyo loops. I learned it by having one dead yoyo and then swinging it in an around the world motion and then I tried to loop the other yoyo. ---

That’s awesome! Very impressive left hand! Yeah I’ve been trying to add ATW into my looping combos… it’s a lightly challenging trick but i don’t think it’s easy. I also try to vary forward loops with shoot the moon and hop the fence (that maybe 3 leaf cover? ) i don’t care which order i get but it’s good practice, usually I’m just happy if i get the yoyo back in my hand. ---

Stoked to see some 2A Tuesday activity. Just went outside and did a few hundred reps. Need to change out my strings on the 720s. Was doing some Warp Drives both left and right, 3 inside loops to 4 ATW, back to 3 IL to 4 ATW like a repeater. Also 100 Inside/Outsides, and some Milk the Cows. I feel like I get a lot of play out of my strings because of my string tension management of alternating flipping loops. > [@anon14765792](#): > > Has anyone tried to loop while holding magazines/books under their armpits? These are definitely some THP (Team High Performance) types of exercises, also laying on your back. I just try and keep my elbows tucked, but I’m also aware on my hand positions and how I’m holding my thumbs and index fingers. Multiple Fence hops, have a grip to them. ---

It’s not Tuesday, but I got \>30 inside loops with my right hand, a new milestone. Sitting at about 10 with my left, but they look really sketchy by comparison. Hoping to get them both up over 50 and to start working on both hands at once soon. It’s exhilarating. ---
