    Best Plate Loaded Pin for 2 Hand KB Swings?

    @jesuslover57 Hey cool! The 10” wide handle was fine for me. For someone with a more..stout build it might be annoying but it would all be workable. That Titan hex system looks neat. Pricey but neat. The knurling I don’t think would be a big deal for swings, can also just tape it. Since I...

    Loaded Standing Back Extension - makes sense or insane?

    @godsgal41 I’d forgotten but I’ve had this book since 2012. Never heard anyone ever reference it before.

    Loaded Standing Back Extension - makes sense or insane?

    @rynsey Genuinely curious why you look for standing alternatives?

    Dan John's issue with dual snatches???

    @barronkanetaylor Dan has a thing about having two things overhead. I don’t agree but he’s consistent about it and usually quite measured in his reasoning. I don’t ever think of Dan as an angry guy.

    Manly Physique: Revisited & Revised

    @inspiringmedia Good stuff. Are you going to continue to do this and if so are you going to make any changes? The rows seemed like they made the least progress but that might be by design because you only had the one pair. Do you think you could have handled much more volume or worked in the...

    Which of these is "best" kettlebell?

    @oydai The first one. The middle one has a gigantic window. The last one is really small and wouldn’t have adequate surface area to rest in your rack comfortably. However rubber coating isn’t very comfortable and it tends to rip hair.

    Loaded Standing Back Extension - makes sense or insane?

    @rynsey I was picturing legs open like a seated good morning.

    Manly Physique: Revisited & Revised

    @steffserves Once you get to four a’s I like to start loading up on the n’s. So Daaaanng. Progressive over-lord-have-mercy is important after all.

    Loaded Standing Back Extension - makes sense or insane?

    @rynsey No, they’re not interchangeable. There won’t be the dynamic extension of the spine in the good morning. It’ll be static but you can load it so much heavier and probably in more reasonable increments. If the goal is to get something similar to the 45° hyper (back extension part not the...

    Does Anyone Know The Program??

    @beeschmidt If I’m not training for something specific I’ll often use 5/3/1 variants. When I did the 64 I was in the middle of a block of gaining which went building the monolith>deep water>building the monolith. Most get ups during this time were light to warm up or medium as parts of off...

    Loaded Standing Back Extension - makes sense or insane?

    @rynsey While standing the resistance from the kettlebell will be pulling in a direction mostly unrelated to your movement so the loading is strange. You can do the floor back extension loaded just hold a weight. The further you hold it from your head the more challenging the movement will be...

    Does Anyone Know The Program??

    @beeschmidt That wasn’t your question. It also had none of the information needed to have a more useful answer be provided. Can you currently even do a get up? I can’t do an 80kg get but I can do a 64kg get up. I didn’t get there by focusing on get ups. Once you have decent technique...

    Does Anyone Know The Program??

    @beeschmidt Love seeing my man Bron getting some run but if you’re going to post only one of his get ups it has to be this absolute gem How to get up 80kg; know how to do a get up, get very strong. That’s all there is.

    Recommended KB Programs for kids (7-10 yr olds)

    @sayjay9274 10 yr olds need to be active. It doesn’t really matter how, anything that gets them moving is a win. Try to gets some buy-in with them. Just like how many kids have expectations of certain household duties and school responsibilities-you may need to establish some kind of contract...

    Alternative exercises in RoP when you don’t have a pull-up bar

    @kianicole This is such a ridiculous looking exercise but it actually would have a nice constant resistance profile for the lats unlike a lot of other alternatives. I bet you could scale this with added weight and something that slides better under your body.

    Question: Could someone translate the hieroglyphics that Levi posted on Youtube for me please?

    @kimgrogg Working for 20s, resting for 10s He’s doing renegade rows for 20s, resting 10s, then doing 20s of cleans, resting 10s, then repeating but with planks instead of cleans, continuous for 6min.
