@yukatan I really need to work on mine again. I was training them for a bit then got distracted with something else I wanted to do, I think I went for muscle ups instead. But damn, I'm back at square one where I can only do negatives. Thanks for the inspiration man! Seems to be quite a few of you reporting in with one arm pushups and making me all kinds of jealous!

@jamesloucks Congrats on the L-sit. I'm jealous! Like Solfire said, I'd love to chat about your progress if you check out the IRC sometime.

@jamesloucks Definitely connect with /@silas1325 or /@shediac if you need tips from some of our active females. Potentia is regularly on IRC with us if you ever need to bounce ideas with her or converse about overcoming different plateaus!

@theislandpoet That was awesome, man! Magnificent display of strength and dexterity.
@theislandpoet That was awesome! So many things on my list of "things I want but will probably never be able to do". Where do you train?
@theislandpoet I missed your posts! Moreover, it's awesome seeing all the skills you've been working on flow into a single routine. Nice to have you back brotha!

@groo101 More of a "have I got anything to show off?" question:
Two months ago I sought advice about my routine and it was made evident that I needed to make my routine tougher, so I added some weight to my dips and inverted rows (first 10 then 25 lbs, I can just about manage 12-13 reps) and switched to decline pushups (of which I can manage 25-30) and added more protein to my diet, and this is the result.
It feels like I'm making progress but looking at the photos I don't see an enormous difference, does BWF think otherwise?

@teckknight Honestly, I'm having trouble figuring out which is the before and which is the after. :X
That doesn't mean you aren't making progress!
What's your diet like? Have you gained/lost weight?

@logicalwomen Just looking at the photos I would agree with you. For the sake of clarity, left to right is 2 months ago to present.
Not an extremely strict diet but I'm eating an average of about 2750 calories per day, mostly chicken/pork, rice, salad (usually vinegar based coleslaw), vegetable cocktail, pizza, ramen, not more than a pint of beer per day, water, coffee (1 sugar + 1% milk) - and admittedly during the holiday season I did consume a large amount of desserts. Also because of the winter cold I've cut down on my walking/cycling so not getting a lot of cardio.
No idea about my weight, I guess I should pull my finger out and buy a balance.

@teckknight I see a difference. I think your lats are bigger and overall you're wider ( in a good way). More obliques and bigger shoulders and such.
