Pretty sure I can do all. Had to check with the front squat at body weight but actually very easy.<br><br>
10 pull-ups with a 30 sec hang between each pull looks the challenge</p> -
<p>good on you for continuing after the stink loss in the cricket bro, I suspect I would have packed a sad!!</p>

<p>Have you given those waiters carries a crack with the upside down Kettle Bell? If not, give them a hoon and see what you think!</p>

<p>No exercise planned tomorrow but shore-to-shore fun run with the wife and kids on sunday. Only 5 or 6km and wont be any great pace involved but exercise nonetheless</p> -
Good stuff JK - I've been away for a couple of weeks, looks like great progress. Also those fishing pics look awesome it's a big goal of mine to make over to NZ to do some fishing when the kids are a bit older. Fly fishing is my preference but that surf looks great too.

Going to change things up a bit for the next 4 to 6 weeks and focus on building some mass.<br><br>
Heavy compound lifts mon weds and Friday. Reps will be 5 to 10 in the working sets.<br><br>
Tues and thurs mobility and core and minimal cardio<br><br>
Eats will up on heavy lift days and more normal on other days <br><br>
Let's do this!!! -
Shore to shore fun run this morning but miss 8 decided to rut about 1km in and wanted to walk slowly which I couldn't handled. Ended up jogging the next 5km with her on my shoulders. Did it ok but a pretty cool workout in the end. Never ever considered a run that long with a 20kg plus weight bag on the shoulders!
