Thank you for the thoughtful comment. Good luck out there on the field!

It can! But, that will result in a low intensity "recovery" pace, which is fine if that's your goal.

Yup, but with everything building up to more difficult exercises is important for safety.

and actually, shoulder extension like this is something that must be maintained in order to have healthy shoulders. Inability demonstrates the need.... but in small doses.

@@TrainFTW ive noticed the way you also lock out on the top kind of like a RTO, thats not advise for beginners right? i should do it like a normal bench dip?

I feel ya. It’s a battle. I do 48hr shifts and it’s a real challenge.

Short answer yes. Longer answer: upper pectoral muscles, serratus anterior, anterior deltoid and biceps brachii.

and thanks 🙏🏻

it’s a great way to start, but not the only.

Always having the same meals really helps. We do generally get hotels with kitchens and cook most meals when traveling. That way the ones we don’t we are okay with eyeballing and making as good choices as possible. Most of our travel involves physical activity so that also helps.

@@TrainFTW thank you

Thank you

Yes absolutely- being a more powerful athlete lends itself to having more powerful strokes vs fast stroked. But it really depends on your goals. Additionally it’s important to note that unless you push the cadence you won’t feel productive at a faster cadence. So pushing for a 23-24 might be very productive in your training. Slowly building the cadence, that with already being powerful, you’d be unstoppable!

@@TrainFTW My goal is 7min 2K. I'm also 53 years old so time is working against me. My current PR is 7:36.

Yes but it requires more power, thus fatigues quicker.

This go around we literally used those 3 meals. The chicken salad was baked chicken, apples, onion, apple cider vinegar, dijon and honey mustard. Otherwise the tacos were ala carte so we could measure our own meal, but still eat the same thing.

thank you

Thank you for the comment

Thanks for the comment!

Back at ya!

Thanks for your comment.

thats if you kip badly. gymnasts literally kip in almost every routine, and they have perfect form

Thank you!

That’s coming up next!

Thank you! Second episode dropping tomorrow and. With the camper, will do that will be a fun setting video.

I think we describe it in the video based on drag factor. The other variable is your stamina vs power… which is your strong suit. If you’re rowing 10k’s your stamina should be great! What SPM do you row comfortably at?

@@TrainFTWHi Matt, really appreciate this. I used to do indoor rowing marathon’s. When I was in my 40’s. Longest was 3 hours. 10 min. Non stop. By the end I had blisters on my butt. So 60/90 min I can handle and feel good about it. I have always rowed at damper setting 10. Hence when I came across your talk on it, by chance, my ears pricked up. Now I’m wondering if I should have rowed between 6/7 as per your advice. I’m going to do a 60 min session tomorrow, for the first time ever with the damper setting at 7. I never check my monitor during my rows. I’m plugged into my music, mainly euphoria trance, and change my rowing speed according to track tempo. I also row with my eyes closed. That way I don’t get distracted.

Thank you - so far blue but competing in the Silver Rush to potentially improve that. Sub 9!

This is a lacrosse ball. Buy at any sport retailer.

A little birds suggested videos like this while sitting on a bench, in a hut, high in the hills.

Thanks!

I did not. I had two more mag pouches for pistol AND rifle with me but did not use them. The sitka pants have a cargo pocket on each side that you could use for additional mags if needed. Those pants are made for archery season hunt weather... so HOT. They would be great in the heat.

No, but I also didn’t prioritize my placement

Thanks for sharing, this was fun. Plus+ new gear!

@@addingonbird1 always fun to get new gear and use it

While it does develop "some" of the same patterns and muscular and they are both pulling exercises, no not directly.

Exactly, nor should a max be dropped on the back!

You bet!

I can agree with that... but like you said.... beyond the beginner stage. So few are beyond the beginner stage.

Thank you for your comment!
