Oh, I don't know if I want to do it today because we squatted yesterday.
1:26
Today, we're going to talk about the gym on our forum.
1:29
We're going to talk about the method that we use to program.
1:33
We're going to talk about how we run the gym here.
1:36
And today I have my good friends, Bryson Del Monte and J.R. Howell from Spartanburg, South Carolina.
1:44
Is that good?

it's on it's on competition corner okay yeah so go that sign up that's cool
12:06
go to competition corner sign up for the work talent and do the bar muscle up and better zack trail with the bar muscle up method
14:41
My gut reaction is B just because I know what's coming up.
14:46
I think with Amanda, it would have been better.
14:49
Can you pull that last one back up? Sorry.
14:51
Just so we can see the description.
14:55
I think this is a better workout if you put pull-ups and squats at the end.
14:59
So you start with push-ups, then you go into sit-ups, and then you do squats, pull-ups.
15:06
The reason I say that is because it would force so much intensity at the end.

like Grace more,
26:37
Years past, like the North America East and West, it was like 1 through 30 are like everyone there is really good.
26:43
I think there was always like a big gap.
26:45
Like at West Coast in 2024, it was like the difference between, I want to say 11th and 12th was like 150 points.
26:52
Yeah, that's fair.

though.
46:57
Fitness doesn't just leave you like that.
46:59
If you've been there before, the chances you're going to get back there is higher than the chances
23:15
I
23:15
mean, first of all, you've got the hips up and everything like that.
23:18
But the thing I see the most, and this is crazy.
23:19
I don't know how people do this.
23:21
Like I couldn't even like get my brain to do it if I tried to, but there'll be doing a pushup and their hands are like way in front of their shoulders or like way behind their shoulders.
23:29
Really? That's crazy.
23:30
You know what I'm saying? Like they're, they're coming to do pushups and they're here and it's like this thing.

What'd you do?
8:04
Last time I worked out was Monday.
8:05
I did that one that you programmed last September.
8:08
Oh, wow.
8:09
It was five rounds, 400 meter run, 21 GHDs, and then 12 burpee box get over at 48 inches.
8:15
And I went like, I think almost two minutes faster than I did last September.
