  1. Wondering why males are checking you out instead of them?
  2. Tire flipping is part of several programs. Crossfit does have a team tire flipping event. 1 mile tire flip among a 5 person team.
  3. that's probably the weight with rim and fully inflated, but it could be the tire alone. The one I was talking about, it was wide (diameter wise) and thick. To pick it up, my chin would touch the top outer wall. if I wasn't perfectly centered, it would just roll away. much too thick to simply push over at that point.
  4. Yeah that's young buck weight, man. Do you use a trap bar to deadlift? But back to the tire... 650 lbs? I gotta see this tire. I used to use one that was 350 and it was a bitch to flip because of its size moreso than its weight. IIRC, it was R55
  5. Any concrete makers nearby? Ask for some discarded rebar perhaps? I don't know. it does sound like a good idea to deadlift a tire.
  6. Did you ever put the deadlift handles on that tire?
  7. it does look fun, then I saw the registration cost.
  8. oh I know... I sweat profusely no matter how light or hard the workout. I have tried to skip rope for 5 minutes with every 5th being a double under. 2 minutes and I'm out of breath.
  9. if you really want a good burn, elevate your feet 24-30 inches on diamonds
  10. Your body strives for homeostasis, which will cause you to eventually flatline / reach your plateau. Changing your routines up can help combat that situation (to an extent). Think of it as P90X muscle confusion on a macro scale.
  11. Snacks are killer... Especially pre-prepared, packaged snacks. How would your kids feel about nutella on whole grain wheat bread, for example, instead of a cookie or a brownie?
  12. unfortunately, belly fat is the last to go. Be patient
  13. Deadlifts ARE easy. Then again, I'm not in high school doing 455 anymore. I might do 5 x 12 at 225 now at the most and call it a day.
  14. Oh. hill sprints - something i have not done in a while. and for good reason, yeah they suck. i do some double-unders on occasion and i used to bike a good bit. been sacking off.
  15. What leg workouts do you guys do that you hate so much? I do a little on the legs about every session - I don't really have a leg day. I usually just do hang cleans into thrusters, box jumps, or wall balls as part of my routine.
  16. I've been a slob for the past three months and I feel the difference. I'm trying to let myself go for a bit just to see a ridiculous improvement. I had gotten back into running shape over the summer - nothing spectacular, 20 minute 5k. I haven't done that since I was in high school so you marathon runners can eat it. But I'll be getting back into my routine come the new year. Right now I have this weird 4 pack/ love handle combo thing going on. that's going bye-bye.
  17. I use 2. I think. Its been like 5 years since I've made sweet tea.
