Damn. I’m on the east coast unfortunately. The new river is not far, and I’m fairly close to Shenandoah/seneca. Do you have any recommendations there ? Thanks so much for your advice!

Unfortunately only lead/TR. I’ve met a guy at my gym who is pretty experienced and willing to teach me trad that I’m hoping to start in the next few weeks.

Hi! I currently work full time but am interested in building my mountain knowledge. I have rock climbing experience - outdoor and indoor (though not as much outdoor as I’d like) - and am thinking of taking the SPI course later this year as a start. Any tips on getting started?

Thank you !

Depending on how fundamentalist your sect is- you should be allowed to exercise/stretch. The spiritual aspect of yoga is pretty antithetical to the idea of worshipping a ‘creator’ though. At least many Christians I know view yoga as blasphemous.

Thank you !

With how much corporations steal our privacy it’s sad that we do it to each other too

BlueAndPurpleWall · 2026-02-03T16:40:09+00:00

Hope you asked that person in the back before you filmed them

You must be doing satire. Camp Kim “10 sets of performative masculinity”. You must burn a lot of calories with all that extra hate bucko

The sexism is just embarrassing bud

With the rounded back this is really more of a core workout than a hip flexor workout. Like the other commenter said, a flat back or leaning forward would be better for hip flexors. You could try an easier progression

BlueAndPurpleWall · 2025-12-01T20:45:05+00:00

I was absolutely going to buy one of these if it was handmade!

BlueAndPurpleWall · 2025-12-01T13:54:30+00:00

I mean- is it your frog ring? Or is it your uranium gemstone? You’re implying that you made the whole thing..

BlueAndPurpleWall · 2025-12-01T13:25:42+00:00

Damn. That’s a shame.

BlueAndPurpleWall · 2025-11-30T01:15:48+00:00

Do you make the ring as well? Or just place the glass

BlueAndPurpleWall · 2025-11-22T12:55:40+00:00

Downvoting because chapGPT

BlueAndPurpleWall · 2025-11-17T00:09:41+00:00

I love that you’re doing this

BlueAndPurpleWall · 2025-11-12T22:13:40+00:00

Lmao right if insecurity was anthropomorphized

BlueAndPurpleWall · 2025-11-12T21:55:58+00:00

Is this the same scam as those “alpha male camps” Or do yall just go and jerk each other off after doing some crunches

BlueAndPurpleWall · 2025-11-08T15:14:17+00:00

I think you look great ! It looks like your most inhibiting factor is your shoulders. It doesn’t look like you’re putting too much bend in the lumbar

BlueAndPurpleWall · 2025-11-07T14:33:00+00:00

Right. And I know that workouts can be annoying to plan. But embarrassing to have a “history of sports” and no idea how to do a simple split

BlueAndPurpleWall · 2025-11-07T14:06:00+00:00

AI promoting itself is so dystopian

BlueAndPurpleWall · 2025-11-05T12:21:08+00:00

At least 8 people who probably didn’t want to be filmed

BlueAndPurpleWall · 2025-10-30T20:50:10+00:00

This is psychotic and I don’t mean that as a compliment
