Friday Thoughts 66
Welcome to this week’s edition of Friday Thoughts, where I share some of my favorite posts I’ve come across on the internet recently, and any other things that have been on my mind. Enjoy!
My feed was full of “how much stuff weighs,” posts this week. These two about the landmine, because everyone asks me, and I didn’t really know, and the push up graphic, which more than anything shows why we love to elevate the hands to scale back a push up rather than go to the knees. Changing the hand position allows us to manipulate the load, or how much of your own bodyweight you’re lifting, whereas knee push ups are, and always will be, the same percentage, eventually halting progress.
I loved this post. And like Jordan, I am sick of, Internet personalities talking about toxins in grocery stores.
Team subtitle.
This would be quite the workout.
The paradox
This chart is great to understand the squat vs hinge pattern. These two similar movements can be tricky to nail down when first starting to strength train.
Clem’s in it for the squirrel blood.
Thanks for reading, see you next time!
