Worth sharing stravas with TSF crew to help encourage everyone to stay active?
yeah, my Strava interactions have gone up as more people have moved on to it. I follow a couple of people on here already.

Seperate thread or chuck them in here?
No idea - my strava is just linked to my fb so not sure what need for someone to add

@taniwharugby wish I could take some of that off your hands!! We've been planting out a bank down the bottom of our place with flax - dude that is gonna be a fun job!!
Nice work on the weigh in to! Plenty of time to cut further - or work out the kai/effort balance to stay in that zone.
Have done two workouts since Monday. Monday was horrific. Inspired by one of my fav fitness dudes. Especially relevant for us gym/weights lads looking at what we can do without the heavy weights and equipment.
Monday was three rounds of supersets with reps till failure every set. Stuck to a strict 30sec break in between to. It sucked hard!! I was utterly wiped yesterday - like I cooked my CNS after a big deadlift session.
Today was max reps in 30sec through a bunch of supersets. Included burpees so yeah. painful.

@Paekakboyz I need to do something like this to break from running. Would that work out be your recommendation for someone with no equipment to work with?
-
@Paekakboyz yea I might just cut back the stuff by the fence so I can walk down there, as there will be an issue with disposal too...
Circuit with TR Jnr today:
15 burpees, 15 air squats, 15 press ups, 15 sit ups, run 130m
14 burpees, 14 air squats, 14 press ups, 14 air ups, run 130m
13 burpees....you get the picture...finish on the round of 5 of eachTR Jnr certainly getting the better of me, although his technique on burpees and press ups need work.

How do you easily post pics on here? Can they be uploaded to tsf via mobile or need to host elsewhere?

Wow thanks mate! Never seen that I could swipe across for further options haha
My strava below. Feel free to add if wish to follow (and not following already)
Must be nice to have a bit of off road to add variety.

@voodoo ha ha you asked! actually most of the stuff we've been doing is without any weight at all.
Today was 3 rounds of the following - as many reps as possible of each in 30sec. With a 30 sec break between super sets.
- Plank into 30 sec of push ups
- Squats then dips
- Lunges (alternating blocks of 5 each leg) and curls (7kg DB) you could swap them out for a push up variation or pressing against a wall or something.
- Burpees.
Always looking to match a push/pull or legs versus upper body exercise in each super set. Then make sure you are overloading across super sets. The lunges today messed me up as I was still fatigued from squats.
When I train with the gym bros we make more use of the DB. Tricep extensions, shoulder press, stupid numbers of reps doing DB pressing, plus a few other things. I've realised my gas tank is an ok weight for rows so that's a bonus lol.
On Monday when we went balls to the wall we did well over a hundred reps across the 3 rounds for every exercise. It sucked hard but pausing for a bit then squeezing out a few more reps really works. It's easy to feel the fatigue and think you've done enough.
