Like the TRX stuff, use to have some straps over the I beam in my basement and would do several different exercises with it. Have you tried doing push ups on the TRX, crazy hard but extremely effective. [/quote]
You aren’t joking. The puppet inspired me to get some tie downs and small pipes from Home Depot and make my own set up ($20 fwiw). I tried push ups and they are really hard. Even hanging leg raises are much tougher. I couldn’t do more than a couple of dips. It’s a bit of a fun new toy.
315x2 front squat ftw. within a month of today, I’ve no doubt.
Thanks for the reply man…i was just wondering. I’ve read the thread before but a recent lcl tear due to volleyball (stretching oddly enough to loosen up a bad it band that i think has attached to the quad) I’m taking the time to work on lower mobility.
O_b_s- pushups are hard as fug

Damn.

cable rows- these are ok
the Db presses - wow dips killed any pressing ability
RX stuff left me swole and feeble.

Pussy 
Seriously though, those BB rows wreck me too, try underhand it doe-sent seem to hurt as much

Can I join this club with you and Matty? FML my elbows are throbbing right now!
It looks like you’re loving your TRX. I’m loving my Home Depot version. I think a lot of it appeals to the former, much younger gymnast in me.
Can you do HLR feet to face on the TRX? How do you get feet to face? Your legs must be short. My feet hit the bar. Post video please
kmc, there is some serious front squat goodness going on in here. I’ll admit, I’m tempted by the TRX, but I’ll fire up the video to see if I’m handy enough to make my own.
Matty thanks broseph
somehow underhand grip hurts them more
that might be a grip width issue for me
Ddot- yes busted elbows unite!
Rick Fischer and I had a conversation about knees-
that usually its feet and ankle problems
I am thinking that elbows/shoulders are intertwined problem wise
O_b_s I do like the TRX
decent work with no joint pain.
and its a fun BW thing
as for legs going feet to face - my legs are short my arms are kind of long
they hit the bar usually-
har har har
Kimba- Hai
thanks!
Awesome work as normal.
Will keep an eye for that 315 front squat
Dj -thanks man.

LX ball and PVC

“some kettle queer stuffs”… That makes me laugh every time. Nice work you are doing, Kev.

so exciting
have a great weekend
It is exciting!!
I’ve been having shitacular training myself. Everyone (not Matty unfortunately) has been all up in my biz at the gym, wanting to chit-chat and catch up. Then I cool off and can’t get back into things!
But what separates me from the tiny super jocks, is that I don’t go home and train some more. Yeesh! Making me look bad.
Anyways, great work, Kev! Have a great weekend, bud!
