    Have you ever tried Pilates and if you have, how different is it to yoga? The missus is trying to get me to go to yoga but I think pilates might be more suited.

    Never tried Pilates. My bro does it, he's a strong core from it but he's not flexible at all. I'm like a contortionist compared to him. A friend recommended a few YouTube videos to me so I'm trying to do then a good few times a week to see if it makes a difference.

    Yoga is more about flexibility pilates more about core strength and controlled moves. Try them both

    Front squatting Wednesday. Yoga Thursday.

    Good session this morning. Highlight was archer pull ups with pinky finger as support on non pulling hand. Started with full hand and removed a finger each time. 1 arm depressions pulls are getting better. Can get up higher now on both sides. Wasn't able to pull myself up on the right side from a dead hang a few weeks ago. Training again in morning looking forward to it.

    This is too funny not to share. Was DL this morning, just working up the numbers when my hammies got a does of epilepsy. I didn't know what to do. It was 150kgs, wasn't even going for a PR and it's a weight I would lift most times without busting my balls. Shins didn't like it too much though.





    Edit: Vid not working. Here's the link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfGX_P-slqM

    Haven't been logging as I've nothing structured in place yet. Still training and with bodyweight stuff and doing loads or mobility n yoga crap. I'm getting where I want to be mobility wise and the reoccurring knots that I've been getting that have been throwing off my alignment are nearly sorted.

    Was a good day today.

    DL
    140kg x 2 with both overhand grip and 140 x 1 mixed grip.

    I'd usually switch to mixed around 130 so was happy with the 140.

    150kg x 2.
    160kg x fail.
    154kg x 1.

    Haven't trained in a few days coz of chest infection. Been doing some mobility at home, which sucks even more when your sick. Hopefully do a bit tomorrow.

    Ha!! Told ya I can't jump if there's high impact. You wanted to do vertices jumps on concrete=high impact and pain for me. I don't mind jumping onto a box though as there's considerably less impact.
