I assume this is a living in lock down city reference ? It felt so good to do something simple like go to a park.

It was, just because it looks like we may trend back that way. And I’m glad to hear it!
Yes with this new variant there is already talk about what will happen next and if another lockdown is on the cards. I don’t think it will happen but you never know.

Get some leg drive in there and you’ll put up decent numbers mate. Those calves must have some power!
That would take practice which takes time.
I’ve been keeping on up Insta but gonna check in here anyways. I’m in Melbourne most weekends now and have a membership at Melbourne Strength Culture if you wanna get in a sesh together there.
Is that in Moorabbin? I need a passport to go that far 
. What happened to iron revolution ?
First 300 burpees tonight. It was 30c so I was more than a little warm doing these. Paced myself to make sure I got them done. Wasn’t quick but happy with the reps. Left elbow a little cranky afterwards but that’s the joy of being crusty.

You’re an absolute legend man.
Really proud of you and also honoured that you’ve decided to jump on board the burpee express.
People need to take note of this. Your progression is admirable

I don’t have any tips other than food and water mate. Also Now that the dog has gone off to the army, the grass is much healthier

Thanks Alex, my body weight hasn’t really changed much and I don’t feel like there is much progress but I will take that compliment.

I’ve got two German Shepard mixes. We’ve been in this house 6 months, back yard is already completely destroyed. Great.

I was expecting to be shattered today after the 300 burpees yesterday but other than a little general tiredness (which I call being a parent) I felt pretty darn good.
