Last Friday I got my 1st kipping pull-up where my chin was above the bar. I've been coming into gym just working on kipping swings (just the movement) and I was like let me try and BAM!! I jumped off the bar and thought, 'Wait did i just see the entire gym and almost down to the floor without a bar in my face.' Then I…

Being from Texas I grew up singing this song: blue bell homemade ice cream, it's the icing on the cake. its the tip of the top, the cream of the crop, like having your own ice cream shop bluebell homemade ice cream, it's homemade country style and bluebell, is better by a country smile. To answer the question, my favorite…

I just did this on Monday, I'M NOT GOING BACK...YOU CAN'T MAKE ME....I'M NOT GOING BACK!!!!

You are correct my friend. All I see is running (jogging) #mph (# miles a min). That's why I just use my HRM. It does the guessing for me. :wink:

I usually wear my HRM for all my workouts to get a round about calorie burn and create my own workouts in the database, so I wouldn't know how to answer that, but I know the database is filled with all kinds of workouts.

Thanks!

Good questions. I've always wanted to know the same thing. I lift 3-4 times a week also, but when it comes to endurance, I suck big time. I was told HIIT training was a good start. I can run for longs period of times but its very, very slow. I would like to know 1) What are ways to get my endurance up and get faster. 2)…

I did the workout and got 90. Stupid box jumps wore me out. I probably wont try that again until Monday.

Country Smile Blue Bell homemade ice cream Is the ice cream on the cake It's the tip of the top The cream of the crop Like having your own ice cream shop Blue Bell homemade ice cream Is homemade country style And Blue Bell Is better by a country smile

Good Job!

LOL, thank you. I did try the plates and it helped a little. I guess part of this does have to do with the shoes.

That was one of the hardest things for me to do. After taking years of martial arts, I was always on my toes, being on your heels are a no, no.

Thanks, Ill try that out. And since Overhead Squats are not done frequently, I'll make sure I practice them when we do open gym and try to work on 2-5 before or after class with the PVC pipe.

Thanks, I guess I will continue standing in front of that wall WITH my head gear on. I will work on squatting with the pipe overhead (keeping everything aligned) and sitting back on those heels.

The Overhead Squat is what I have nicked named ‘The Joy Killer’. I absolutely cannot do that exercise. I can snatch, clean (135+), DL (255 max), FS (125+), BQ (125+), you get the point, but when it comes to this, this cruel formation, I can’t even squat with the bar. I do not have that flexibility in my back and shoulder…

I tried it again on Saturday and finished with 2 full round + 11 snatches. So a little better.

I did not sign up but I did do the WOD. My end results were 2 full round + 6 snatches. I'm going to try it again on Monday also to see if I can improve my results.
