Gymnastics soon puts you in your place, a few years back my niece had her birthday party at her gymnastics club. I was messing around doing chin ups on the rings, my niece jumped on my legs to try and pull of down, I did a few chins with her holding my legs. Then her dad came and jumped on like gladiators, I kept hold of the rings for pretty long.
The gym coach came over, young lad about 19, he said that he was impressed with my strength, do you wanna try some holds and some transitions like muscle ups. He made everything look completely effortless, I could not complete a single move despite him telling me exactly what I needed to do, it felt completely impossible.
After leaving my bands in the conservatory they have all snapped, Rather painfully stinging my hands. Have ordered a set of 5 bands today from 8 to 30lbs resistance, the good thing is you can clip them altogether to create different resistance. they come with a hook and some handles also. Was pretty cheap so will see how they turn out.
Been eating slightly above maintenance for a few month, not really force feeding but hitting some good calories.
All of a sudden this past 2 weeks Iāve seen a massive increase in appetite, hungry all the time. Iām gonna make the most of it and consume as much as I possibly can, think Iām having a late growth spurt!
As you can tell from my workouts Iām pretty much free balling. Thereās a loose structure there but Iām just enjoying doing what I feel before switching to the trap bar routine. To do that I need a trap bar and itās still not back in stock yet, taking the piss.
Around 1 year and 24ish lbs apart. Obviously not as lean and my waist is bigger, mostly bloating due to high quantity of food. Iām happy that itās definitely not 24lbs of fat so I have built some quality lean mass this year. Mostly in my back and traps, will continue doing what Iām doing despite getting the urge to get really lean! I must stay strong and keep eating.
Yeah thatās probably the bloating pushing them out!
Iām not sure from those 2 pics that anything really stands out as looking much improved, my back and also glutes have seen the most growth, will try and get a comparison shot of my back.
