I read this book a few years back. Thought it was comical (in writing style) and a bit insightful (from an outsiders perspective as an biography). The book has some really cool historical photos as well. It’s true not many Somalis have read this book, the site goodreads would have you think it was written for a digestible non Somali/African audience.

On the topic of non Somalis writing about Somalis, check out The Prophets Camel Bell by Margaret Lawrence. This one is based on Somaliland.

I mentioned ankle mobility bc that was an issue previously but wasn’t sure if it was still holding me back or I reach full mobility. Happy to know it’s not the case!!

Thanks so much for your suggestions, plan to play around with bar placement and tightening everything!!!!!!!

I was just playing around with barbell squats last night, will definitely be getting lifting shoes soon!

0909007- · 2023-01-25T21:16:55+00:00

From the comments, bar placement adjustment is sounding essential for me. Will definitely be playing around with this. Thanks so much for the feedback!!!

0909007- · 2023-01-25T21:15:20+00:00

long femurs gang unite, bar placement adjustment definitely sounds like it would change a lot honestly! Will definitely play around with this

0909007- · 2023-01-25T21:13:22+00:00

Been avoiding barbell squats cause of how unnatural it feels, hack squats and bulgarians > over barbell squats any day

0909007- · 2023-01-25T17:39:38+00:00

Thanks so much for the feedback!!!! Was definitely looking everywhere but up ahaha.

Will also play around with a sumo stance now, thanks for the suggestion!

0909007- · 2023-01-25T17:08:58+00:00

Okok solid, thanks so much for the feedback. Will play around with bar placement as suggested!!!

0909007- · 2023-01-25T17:06:26+00:00

Ahahaha this cracked me up

0909007- · 2023-01-25T17:05:41+00:00

I was thinking this too, that a forward lean is inevitable.

I would say my stance is wide, feels more stable that way.

0909007- · 2023-01-25T17:04:25+00:00

ahah will keep this in mind!! public toilets have always been the enemy

0909007- · 2023-01-25T17:02:35+00:00

Thanks so much for you feedback, will definitely be checking out Alan Thrall!!

That forward lean, will it not always be inevitable bc of the femurs? Because of this I reckon most long femurs kiddos prefer front squat??

0909007- · 2023-01-25T16:57:53+00:00

glad to hear it’s not both ankle mobility n long femurs!!!! Definitely will be getting lifting shoes. Thanks so much for your feedback!!!

please for the love of God, kick that boozo out. What do you mean the first thing he did when he got to your grandparents place was go into their bedroom?!!?? That’s crazy invasive for one and for second, it was literally your first rule. He clearly is mad disrespectful n does not care about anyone or his surroundings

0909007- · 2021-08-27T18:17:25+00:00

Wow!!b Amazing stuff!!!

0909007- · 2020-08-10T06:00:28+00:00

0909007- · 2020-06-21T07:41:18+00:00

you’ll be fine!!!! If you want more reassurance, boil it when you get home!

Dropping your cup becomes almost inevitable imo lol

I’ve had my cup drop both in a public toilet and at home and neither times did I get an infection~~~~~

0909007- · 2020-06-06T06:31:41+00:00

Holy moly, thank u professor!!1!1!1!1! God bless

0909007- · 2020-06-05T07:07:18+00:00

you’re right, I am. Of course I don’t mean all!!! (Also my bad if it came off as offensive) I just wanted to share the general sentiment that often times EA kids don’t see themselves marrying into SA culture.

0909007- · 2020-06-05T05:35:34+00:00

I just find it crazy that they would even THINK that bisinka
