I tried a muscle up once and it hurt my shoulder. I’m certain it would tear something now.

I guarantee you they’d love it a lot more if they saw you do it in person…especially if you look really dorky doing it!
Oh it will be dorky!
One of them had birthday party at the gym once and the adults were messing with the equipment, up steps uncle K, rings time. Knocked out some Chin, did an l sit, lifted my legs up to the sky and held my self 90° to the floor…legs went a bit far, ended up flippin over facing the floor with my shoulders twisted all the way around and was well and truly stuck! Only option was to let go and face plant into the mats. So yeah I wont top that. Lol

Well? How were they?
Not too bad, def felt burning in my quads, abs felt it holding that position too so bonus I guess.
I dont think there is any real substitute for an actual leg extention though.
You’d have to play with angles a bit, but you could use a DB and a band while seated. A decline bench might be useful…

only 1 rep up again over the 3 sets, added a 4th set with wife spotting and assisting past failure for 8. May switch these out for barbell overhead as I can progress the weight better.

I’m considering doing a cut, been a long time since I have done anything more than just a quick 2-3 week mini cut.
Last time I did a prolonged cut I ended up close to 66kg, my legs had much more size than now and i didnt feel that lean, here is the pic.
I would like to think I have added a good chunk of muscle since then. My scales broke last month so not sure of my current weight and I wont be weighing to track my progress. I will be going purely by the mirror until I look how I want to look.
Week off has come to an end, unfortunately with an injury from non training stuff.
Was helping lift an old combi boiler (around 60kg) down from my loft, the bit I was holding snapped clean off on one side whilst I had it about chest height. tried to control its fall with the arm still holding it and have strained my bicep.
Had a pull session planned for today but will do a push instead and just see how it feels.
I have so many CT bookmarks it’s stupid. Have you checked that feature out?

Sorry to hear about the biceps strain. I took the week off from the gym, too, but today will finally be my second day of rest. I’m beat from my “week off” - especially my back. My pelvis is out of alignment again.

No I haven’t, will look at that thanks.
Its shitty when you feel worse after a week off!
Bicep is just a little bruised, can feel a gap in the muscle where it hurts. Feels much better today so think it will be fine by my pull session.
