Hope all is well, my friend.
Thank you matey
Sorry to hear about the drama and hospital trip. Hope everything is ok mate.
Cheers bro
Iāve pretty much ditched barbell work for the time being.
Iām becoming more specific with my exercise selection as these tend to be the only ones I use during my videos. No point leaking recovery on exercises that Iām only doing to scratch the hypertrophy itch
These exercises are
Burpees, the 6 count and navy seal in particular
Chin/pull ups, weighted and bw
Dips, weighted and bw
Squats, KB and air
Push ups,
KB Swings
Thatās pretty much it.
Adding this pod cast to my bath time listening for later in the week. Canāt wait
Definitely will mate. It will probably take me 2 baths to finish it. Lol
That sounds better than most dates Iāve been on.
I will also have to find time for a long bath, but I really like what Iāve heard so far. I really relate to the beginning, where you describe fitness as part of your identity rather than something youāve been passionate about. Like, if I donāt do it, who am I?
Listened to the whole thing while doing my weighted vest walk with the dog this morning. Dude, you did me a great honor with the HUGE shout out: really appreciate it. Your journey and transformation has been nothing sort of inspiring to observe and you are a total force of nature these days.
I really dug a lot of what you had to say regarding the benefit of burpees as a mental challenge and itās carryover to physical endeavors. People get too concerned about the 1s and 0s of training and donāt take time to appreciate the intangibles like that.
I had to just smile and nod hearing you talk about the lies we tell ourselves to get through the hard workouts. Itās such a BIG part of it. You NEED to be a good liar to get through a few hundred burpees.
Quality podcast. Amazing noise to signal ratio. You guys crushed it.
@EmilyQ I appreciate the feedback. Training was my identity for years however the fixation on it being so hindered my progress. Really glad youāre listening to the podcast
@T3hPwnisher listen big man, Iāll always give credit where itās due and you have inspired me big time. You know this because I regularly remind you about it on hereš thanks for the feedback man. Greatly appreciate it. Maybe you can come on the podcast at some point?
Would love to! My schedule has become a bit more stable these days, so itād be pretty viable.
