osteopath advice - pulling exercise complement
hi folks, I've been a long time lurker here... nearly got up to level 4 once (completed level 3 in time) but never been able to keep a program going regularly for more than a couple of weeks (usually I end up getting sick - don't know if its connected to the exercise). Anyway I recently had some bac...

day 2 idea - slow as possible?
Hi, I've always been a bit confused about day 2 - there seems to be a contradiction between being rounds for time and it being a 'strength' day. Anyway I had an idea I think I'm going to try - day 2 is for time, but the goal is to take as long as possible. Only time spent actually doing reps is coun...

Great list there! Where did you find it? Definitely going to try the stomping grapes (love the simplicity) and neck nods - hadn't heard of them before but they seem very simple and effective. Can't quite do lemon squeezers - I can't keep my legs straight... feels like that's strength/flexibility in ...

I'm studying computational neuroscience... The thing I just handed in was a model of a small part of rat somatosensory cortex, but the project wasn't very successful. I actually don't have to do a defense or anything for this - it was a funny course with two dissertations... anyway I'm transitioning...

Hey, I went the other route - I went up to level 2 even though I was doing body row subs and still can't do proper pullups. For me I thought the extra volume would do me good - after all its not very much time spent exercising (day 2 and 3 usually between 5-10 minutes) so I thought once you get belo...

L2D1 - 27 rounds... Subbing 3 x body rows at quite sharp angle as before. Back after taking my rest week completely off and working on handing in my dissertation. Then I had a twinge in my shoulder for a while - I'd tried to do grease the groove type pull up attempts during the week. Seems OK now th...

L2D2 - Strength day replaced this with weights... really want to build up technique on core lifts with a view to doing crossfit one day and also getting stronger quicker... So: back squat 5x5 20kg overhead press 5x5 20kg deadlift 5x5 20kg dips 5x5 (4x5 + 4.5 really - missed the last rep of last set)...

Was in two minds about moving up a level before getting pullups sorted out and doing day 3 stuff broken into fewer sets, but decided not to worry and I think the extra volume will do me good... L2D1 - 23 rounds (3 x body rows) (which is the same as when I first did L1D1, although then I was doing ne...
