Great: NOW I finally get this song

Actually, from their point of view my house is already upside down. So I can just trust their perspective and the issue is solved!

Trent Reznor was super into dipping back then.

1189

Seems like it worked

Could use this to do a version of bench dips. Hands on one side feet on the other. Not the same as dips but it still a good alternative

1191

Thatā€™s not a bad idea either.

Actually, looking at how itā€™s positioned, I could still give it a go with the bars on the top

(yeah I didnā€™t strictly mean a wall when I said it was secured to a wall)

The only question is, how bad can I hurt myself in the off chance I fall off the balcony?

Pretty sure, if you die from it, you go straight to Valhalla.

You got me convinced. Iā€™ll start tomorrow.

You could stick a few boards through the steps.

Also, you can order some bands of amazon for some resistance.

Iā€™m not sure I understand what you mean by boards?

I just remembered I have a 22 lb weighted vest I could also use for weighted pullups and dips.

1196

This is the first thing that came into my mind lol I would take my chances away from the balcony and just use something to weight it down.

Edit: if you tie a rope to the bottom of the rail, bring it under the thing and tie down the opposite crossrail, it should be much safer

1197

Shove heavy stuff into a backpack and do weighted push-ups.

Learn how to hold a frog stand/crow pose/w.e you want to call it.

Learn how to do a planche.

I think he means like thisā€¦

Is this a request for optimal results?

Iā€™d say the best you can hope for is fractured pelvis and maybe separate the ribcage from the spine. Maybe some skull fracturing.

But thatā€™s like best case from like 30 feet. Ymmv.

Something like this. By boards, I mean 2x4s or pieces of wood.

Indeed, but not a lot of room for him.

Haha. Somehow her photo didnā€™t show up when I read through it.

1203

Well heā€™ll have to turn the 2x4s upright, so they will be sturdier :joy: Or some decent metal pipe would work too.

Are we really so convinced that whole contraption is going to manage your bodyweight? It looks a bitā€¦thin. You should make some of your friends try it first.

Probably shouldnā€™t be encouraging Italians to travel at the moment.
