    Goodness...I am impressed with everyone that can do this and even more to those that have never tried but now swear they will do this. I have enough health problems so I am sticking to rule bending and BB photography.......

    This is frustrating for me.

    I was sort of being a little silly when I initially posted this thread.
    I didn't have an unnatural fixation with backbends and thought it would be funny to pretend as if I had some sort of weird fetish.

    But now I actually do have one! Look at you women, jesus christ!

    Karincakes, that's an awesome body you've developed.

    I'm so lucky I married a bendy woman myself or I'd be up **** creek after this thread!

    Sorry, I call BS.

    But props for getting the women to post some hot pictures.

    Great job! Get your shoulders in line by doing upward planks after workouts! :)

    Thanks for the tip- I never thought much about shoulder placement. I will work on it and report back!

    This is my favorite thread in the history of ever. Tripmom I can't believe you're down 171 pounds and bridging like that. And sbbhbm, you're good at everything. :bigsmile:

    I know I can do this... gonna try to get a pic. Just did some yoga so I should be able to do it easier than with cold muscles...

    BTW, you all are impressive being able to do this - men and women - so hooray for you all!


    ETA: Profile pic updated with backbendy pic. Woo!

    No camera here but mine looked poor and held shortly. Will work on it - some concern for my impinging shoulders but will bend for pizza.

    Woo-hoo! I can do that!!! Crud, I'm at work... would be weird to ask someone to take my pic right now (I know, I know- pics or it didn't happen...).
    I can also bring my legs up over my back and plant my feet flat on the floor over my shoulders. Yeah, I'm braggin', get over it :laugh:
