@groo101 I was moving throughout the hold but about 6 seconds at the end of a workout. Probably around 10s if I'm fresh and do a few shots of bourbon first!

@groo101 Locked in my first ever back lever on friday on the last set of my workout. I was pretty damn hyped and did it a bunch more. May as well add in the video where i grabbed the screencap from. https://www.dropbox.com/sc/dcatfyt2tmlucd8/AADHwoMbBJz0ZONzjgAqbQCsa

@garsimtha It seems to have disappeared. I saved the comment and thats gone. It was in faq and that's gone as well. Basically you picked a primary and secondary goal and worked towards it. Can't remember if it was 3x8, 5x5 or 5x8. Hope that makes sense I can explain a bit more if you need me to

@manofthecloth Wish I would've known. Would've loved to meet up with someone to show me the city or drink beer with

@dawn16 Everyone told me I should blog like 5 years ago when I started traveling. I half way wish I had but it takes away from being in the moment. Having to sit down once or twice a week and write about everything. No doubt it wouldve been a good idea though. The more I travel the more I run...

@ricottak Being veg is weird. I just don't eat enough. Fiber is filling so it's easy to eat a ton of fiber in veggies and feel full but not get enough calories. I've been going for peanut butter lately cuz its very calorie dense and has high protein. When I plateau I change the stimulus, which...

@matt_cox87 Solid enough. I'm three days in now. Things aren't as cheap as I wanted but I don't know if theyve ever been when I travel. Come across some great food and some awful food. Tons of backpackers.

@cyndee I think I'm at 190 or so workouts in the past two years. I started with and still use a super simple homemade calendar that hangs on my wall right next to my door. A few months back I thought it was stupid as shit that I wasn't actually tracking workouts with setxrep and weight counts so...

@unsilentrose DAMN! That's inspiring. I ran my 18year old 300lb+ roommate thru the beginner routine and I didnt even attempt having him try wall HS. Thats freaking awesome. Stick with it man!

@silas1325 Heck yea!

@davecb I did my first muscle up EVER on rings at an open gym night at a gymnastics gym here in San Diego. Did my second muscle up the next morning when I started chatting with some guy at the bar park. Instructed him and his wife on handstands. Found real stillness in my handstands on friday...

@groo101 Woot! I got a shoutout! Always makes me feel better about myself. I had a pretty weird training sesion on saturday. After eating a burrito at 2:30am and sleeping 5 hours I was at the park at 9am to put in some work. The burrito had other plans though. I felt like trash. Filmed my...

@silas1325 Gotta take care of yourself. I train for me so I end up doing what I want to. Don't wanna lift heavy and wanna get bendy? Do that if it keeps you motivated! Do the opposite of that if that works too! Lemme know when you lock in your Thailand trip and we can figure out what you want...

@romans82 Yes and no. Deloads are important and your body may have greatly benefited from the time off. Whats absolutely a fact right now though is that you're the strongest you've ever been and your body is fully recovered. Time to get it!

@groo101 Ha! Thanks man. I nearly joined the IRC chat yesterday and will be doing so as per your suggestion. I've got plenty of questions. Running is usually my #1 go to to pump out some endorphins but I just moved home a week ago and haven't put in any miles yet. Still consistent with working...

@getips I'm incredibly happy and all my clients tell me to keep getting after it. My methods are awful haha. Always nice to hear from someone from the other side

@groo101 Just wanted to say thanks for being included in the post! I'm fighting some depression and any shout out does heaps to make me feel better!

@recoveringangel If you haven't started yet, do compression work! I definitely have the strength but the angle of my V is limited by my inability to compress! Sweet progress!

@getips It's too damn good to give up. I have job offers for more money but they cut my vacation time from 5-6 months a year to one month. Not into that right now.

@beverly24 Yeah it gets better as you understand the movement more. The first time I benched (bar only) the thing felt incredibly heavy and wobbled all over the place.
