So.. how are the tyres attached so they don't fall over?
I used nuts and bolts👌🏾
What a great idea 👍
Thanks👍🏾1 -
The same way with any method or training Utilizing proper load management and a good form of auto regulation hopefully.When you're training with unconventional items how do you know when too much is too much (or, conversely, too little is too little)? Or which moves are liable to cause potential injury?
When you train it's important to learn to pay attention to your fatigue, recovery, and use appropriate load. Knowing what it feels like when enough useful stress is dosed. Of course we should practice this often as in most goals we are to overload progressively over time and the amount of stress needed will become greater.
Also besides trama like dropping something on your foot or the like certain movements don't cause I injury. Injury are not a result of a movement but the load of stress accumulated. Control the stress and you will lower injury risk.
All good points and insights!
I just know I have, so my podiatrist says, the slightest hip imbalance. Therefore, I keep it in mind when doing "unconventional" things (or purposefully doing stability challenges/movements). @BIG_FN_ROB's approach, and obvious enthusiasm, has been fetching to watch and learn from.2 -

The thing is everybody has these imbalances. We are human. Unless we have trama or a disability, there really isn't a reason to train differently.
Just keep sound load management and more than likely there is nothing to be concerned about.
Personally, I train with a progressive joint disease that makes it hard to hold a cup of coffee or even walk for a block some days. But with consistent training with proper load management, I hold a few records in the sport of powerlifting.
Yes, his style of training can be very rewarding

I ordered around 80 climbing holds yesterday and I'm talking to a carpenter. Hopefully I can climb again next week!
(One drawback of climbs like this one is the rubber on my walls!

Thanks! I started doing BJJ and my grip strength was my biggest strength. So I bought a 35 lb kettlebell because they are amazing for grip strength and that showed me that I love working out at home I really enjoy it.0 -

Imagine holding in a pushup position while grasping a hockey stick on knuckes(with hockey gloves). Now alternate moving hands toward while keeping pushup position and dragging feet. Emulates how a seal moves on dry land.1 -
