Question when the gym open up again are you going back or wait til 2021?

[@SkighAthletics]

I am going to stick to my at-home workouts for a bit just because I have a great routine and the perfect amount of equipment to do so! I have been in "quarantine" since my seizure and surgeries in January and February of 2019 so I'm (unfortunately) used to it! How about you??

[@jpm8960]

@@SkighAthletics I'm 5'10 and thought that you look like me, your shins look like mine etc. Maybe it was the angle. A lot of these videos lie about height. I seen legit 5'11s clickbait saying they 5'6. My bad

[@SkighAthletics]

@@jpm8960 I look like you in terms of height..? Based on the video, our shins look like they’re the same length/ height so that automatically makes me 5’8”😅 No worries! In a very sarcastic mood today so I’m actually responding with my actual thoughts of when people normally say I’m lying about my height🥴 I totally get it, though! I have dunked with some elite athletes & dunkers that have their heights at 6’1” but are easily 2-3” taller! I was at the hospital a looooooot last year because of cancer, chemotherapy & radiation so my height and my weight have been measured at least 20+ times that I have on paper and I have measurements that range from 5’6.5” *(what it says on my online portal currently)* to 5’8”!! I always like to measure height *(myself, the low rims I dunk on),* weight *(myself, the weight I lift)* & just to be as honest as humanly possible on my social media!

it seems that he’s incorporating a lot of overcoming isometrics into his workout which is something ive been researching, as its a way of increasing power and performance without size, it’s essentially trying to move an immovable object. This help your body to recruit a higher number of muscles to perform the exercise and gives a considerable lower percentage of injury, as well as using the exercises where your knees go over your toes to strengthen the muscles supporting your knees and the tendons to reduce knee injury. This guy knows his stuff! will definitely try this routine for my leg day. Thanks fella!

[@ryannath85]

I remember those days being 19 and hitting my head on my 8 ft roof after doing a similar routine for a few weeks. I could grab rim but never dunk though at 6ft with a 6ft reach. Now I'm 36 so I guess I will never dunk because i come several inches from the ceiling now lol.
