Got the Viking genes from his mother.
Hey hey hey, that is my heritage too and I'm not a blob (yet). Also:
Just put that in there really.
I meant the Viking genes in the most positive, crazy jealous way. Kid only has to look at weights to get jacked. But even Vikings are no match for Coca Cola and Krispy Kreme.

He's a top bloke and I love him to bits but we're on week 9 now and he just phones it in and is looking for every shortcut under the sun.
Took me about 4 years to get Bonesetta to stop doing shortcuts all the time and copping out on technique/exercises/weights.
Now she generally trains better than me. Probably because I take shortcuts all the time and cop out on technique/exercises/weights.
Welcome back fella!

@Rancid-Schnitzel TR Jnr is 15, up until now he has done more bodyweight stuff, but a few of his mates go to another gym, he wanted to join, so I did too.
He has alot of potential, but is a bit lazy, thought having his older brother up recently who is a solid unit who spends alot of time at the gym, would inspire him to go a bit harder, but is his inspiration is sporadic.
His best mate who goes to the gym and has been for a while, his dad is an Orthopaedic surgeon, so assume if he thought it was bad kids doing gym, he wouldnt let him do it.
At 12 and 10 I’m getting my boys to do push ups and negative chin ups. They both do much better when my other half is critiquing their form and they were shocked ( as was I ) when she busted out 25 good form push ups for the FB challenge ( but she didn’t put this online cos she didn’t want to upset her more out of shape friends, she’s such a girl )

@MN5 after seeing your vids, sounds like a great idea if she is in charge of push-up form...
Mine were perfect and my variations showed great power and poise.
You must have been bored to watch them though, I’m sure no one else did.

I watched them and was very disappointed when you stopped. The singing was the highlight.

How is she at pull-ups? My gf is a bit of a gym junky but can barely do 2.

I was sick of being ignored. I think only you and one other bloke did it out of about 15 nominations. Included in that bunch were a Ferner or two as well. The pathetic excuses were just that....sore wrist, bad shoulders, Heart murmurs.....
That’s before I even got to @Bones

Yeah I stopped nominating. It was getting embarrassing.

Yeah the difference in upper body strength is pretty huge. Makes those Crossfit women even more impressive.

yeah I nominated people every other day for the first week, no one did it, so I gave up nominating.

She blames her ‘massive thighs’ cos she weighs all of 54kg or whatever.
As I said, such a girl.

Ordinary night's sleep so tough to get up to when Kenny Loggins blasted out Danger Zone, but I got up in the end. Good swim session. Intervals after were tough but they always are. There's a new swim coach. Only 19 but very innovative and very sharp. Good lad. No mucking around and good sets.
Feeling that I'm not getting enough grub into me during the week so gf suggested a steak meal one night a week. Sounds good to me. Definitely not quite getting the balance right RE diet. But no issues with the cheat meal today. Four schnitzels 👌
