The mrs has signed us up for Tango this weekend. Being a coordinated musician I'm sure I'll be fine. I just hope it's not one of those 'change partner' type deals like when we did Salsa and I got stuck with an enormous minga who I couldn't get my arms around much to her amusement.
( the mrs not the minga )
Trying to get the hang of pistol squats and failing miserably, no Pilates last Saturday on account of a family birthday thing and I fully intended to do dry July ( have been really good with the drinking lately ) but fucked up by having a couple of glasses of red on the first of July.
Tango?
Dude that rhymes with hay.

Pistol squats are fucking hard! And even harder without good ankle flexibility, which isn't something a lot of us work on 😁
Next time you are doing the rope climbs you could use the rope to give you minor assistance. That's how I see a lot of peeps learning them at the gym. Plus not trying to go to deep to soon Giggity 👍
You know @MN5 gonna go balls deep from the getgo.
I been so freaking busy lately I had next to no time for anything bar stretching and flexibility stuff!
Somehow I am still losing weight slowly, down to 93.2kg now...gotta get back into shit

I don't know how those dancing couples can do all that without wanting to fark each other's brains out right after. That is some intense shit with some serious eye contact. Don't know how I'd be able to keep the footlong in check.

Went to one session, piked on the rest. Switched partner's and had to dance with a pile of old bones and a tubby minga respectively. I just don't think that kind of dancing fits with our culture, the blokes who attend look for the most part like a bunch of serial killers ( quiet, strangely dressed with centre parts ). Al Pacino they most certainly ain't.
Just not my cup of tea. Mrs took it well haha.

At least you gave it a shot. Would have been OK to do it together but it would be weird to get close and personal with someone else, particularly a tubby minga.
Interesting you mention the freak looking men there. My date last night does salsa and she said the same thing. I was thinking it would be Latino hunks, but apparently the complete opposite.

Well yeah when the swarthy Latino blokes do it they look quite natural and fair enough, it's their culture. Kiwi blokes ( and Aussies ) don't really fit the bill. We're all about repressed emotion, not smoldering gazes....

I posted a rope climbing vid on Fagbook, took it after work so in jeans, shirt and beanie and pretty much the only comments I got were naysayers doubting it was me cos you can't really see my face.
fluffybunnies.
As if I'm the kind of creep who'd film others working out.

@mn5 See if you'd get a better reaction on different social media. Like Grinder.

Just had a look. To be fair that could have been anyone. It also appeared to cut out halfway through. Did you fall at that point and do a sneeky edit?

I wouldn't know how. Just did another climb to silence any naysayers and chucked it on fagbook, got a bit caught near the top and had to cheat with legs briefly but ah well. 95% decent for the rest of it. DOMS flaring up like a mutha fucka as well!

Joints a bit sore from one too many rope climbs on Saturdee. They can be tough on the CNS so I need to be careful of overdoing it.
Also feeling pleasantly fucked after an hour or so jumping round with the boys at Jumparama. Awesome workout to be honest although oldest boy landed badly and hurt his ankle. I'm sure he'll be ok.
Great being out there making it happen with the lads while other fat, douchebag Dads sat 'watching' their kids ( or should I say phones ).
I don't live with my boys so maybe I feel I need to make an effort but I'd much rather run the risk of being active and potentially embarassing them than sitting on my ass being inactive. -
60 chins ( not quite all in the one set ) at the park at lunch today and not in typical workout attire ( pants and shirt ) guns feeling sore already so I'm sure the DOMS will be flaring in no time.
Hand grippers and rope climbing ensure that it's the muscles that crap out well before the grip does.

"Chins" must be the new slang for blowjobs?
60, close on your PB for a day?
Yep, my jaw sure does ache.

If you're into your chins you should give Murph a go:
1 mile run, 100 pullups, 200 push-ups, 300 squats, 1 mile run.
Was planning to do it on Friday but farking manflu might kneecap me.

Is there an option where you don't have to run?

Would that also be the option of you not having a cock and balls?
