*For battle ropes I took a piece of 1/2 inch insulated copper wire we had lying around, I’m guessing the whole thing weighed 50lbs give or take, it made me want to just lie down and die sooooo I guess it worked like a charm lol. For the stationary bike, I just took a regular bike put it up on jacks and peddled, granted it does not have a resistance but on a scale of 1-10 on effort put into peddling I’d say I was giving it around 5.5-6.

that’s my favorite kind of workout. The kind where you lay on the ground and heave for breath. Then, “ask more, please.”

Due in part to a few other variables and a few family members negative comments and reading Dr John Rusin’s article that was posted the other day, I decided to throw in finishers , I’M GONNA GET STRONGER AND RIPPED! SO KEEP HATING HATERS! YOUR NEGATIVITY JUST FUELS ME!!! (I feel better now lol)

I would love to see how you rigged a 270lb kettlebell!
Also, you are definitely approaching Sabretooth levels of strength!
My first trip into this log. It won’t be the last. Great stuff, what a work ethic.
I also want to see the rig of a 270 pound kettlebell. VIDEO OR IT DIDN’T HAPPEN, brah.
