straps are great, cheap and easy to use. being preoccupied with hook grip is just dumb ego unless you're trying to compete in PL and even then training with straps makes sense a lot of the time.

GP adarq, i think that's what it is. i'm going to start trying to do them with a leg lift, as in a SLRVJ.

T0ddday, i dunno how high i get. should check. certainly higher than when i started doing them.

sucks about your lat. unsolicited suggestion for your week off: do some bw lower body stuff at home just to keep limber and minimally active. pistols, shrimp squats, bridges/hip thrusts, BSS, kickbacks, etc.

how is it that we look so good in car window reflections dammit

 

wat.

i weigh 78-79kg and have a 31-31.5" waist.

 

Holy shit!!! How tall are you again?

Also when I measure waist I'm measuring across the belly button. Easiest way for me to get some consistency.

180cm, just under 5'11.

I'm sorry to hear that your brother is going through this. My brother also had a very hard time with me when I was battling depression in the past. But even though I pushed him away and hurt him so many times he stuck with me and kept believing in me and it's probably thanks to him that I'm still here and alive today. I can't describe how much this means to me. I really hope that you hear from your brother soon and that things work themselves out somehow.

hey man thanks for these words, i really appreciate hearing them. i went through a period some years back where i was really angry with my brother and just suppressed my relationship with him. i'd still see him and stuff but i didn't really reach out. as time has gone by i've come to a greater understanding and while i still get angry with him when he fucks with our parents, i try very hard to communicate nothing but love to him. he showed up earlier today, i'm not sure where, but my mom called me and they were together. talked to him briefly, he was probably still high. he doesn't need me to tell him he fucked up, he knows it. he just needs to hear me say i love him anyway and that's it.

anyway, got back to work today and actually had a great workout. some of that "brother fucked with mom and dad again" anger maybe.

WEIGHT: 170.0 #athleticanorexia #probablyjustalittledehydrated
