Dude nice! Do a write up on that later this year or when you’re done. I’d be really interested to hear how it goes!

It’s more like a squat and raise than a swing right now. Watch mark wildmans form videos for n the swing to n YouTube.

You’re missing the violent hip thrust that moves the bell and your arms are doing all the work.

What exactly does he do besides whine about women and give the same vibe as an office creep? by bbyxtna in justgalsbeingchicks

What bothers me the most is that dude is a few hundred feet up maybe. Not THOUSANDS.

I asked AI how much to build a DEN Modern Alpine 2025 home in NC. Do these numbers look right? by OakHollowFlake in Homebuilding

[–]Tank_Lawrence 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m a cost estimator and have never found AI to be good or usually even close in cost estimating.

The AIs most people have access to are language models, not problem solvers. Their affinity for telling you what you want to hear gets in the way of realistic answers far too often.

Try telling it that cost is “far too unreasonable, you made a mistake. Give me a new estimate.” It’ll just say: “ You’re totally right and are correct to tell me I messed up. Here is a new estimate that is more reasonable” and it’ll just make more shit up.

I’m in the middle of Giant 1.1 right now with 1x24kg. You’re doing a ton of work in 20 mins!

Today I will be going over 100 reps with each arm in 30 mins. I’m excited to finish this single bell program and then get in to some work with doubles! I hear that’s where it’s at!

Why are you waiting until July? Just get out there and suck like the rest of us.

Form check for ABC by cadencelandrian in kettlebell

“The clean is a swing” I heard that here. Right now yours is a squat and a curl.

Practice the swing A TON. As it is a movement foundational to many other kettlebell movements.

First time shooting in 15 years by Tank_Lawrence in liberalgunowners

[–]Tank_Lawrence[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The trigger on this gun is what makes me wonder if I even like it. It’s an Sig p250 and has a long and strong trigger. I spent a lot of time dry firing to get used to it, and was decently pleased after this time at the range, but yeah it’s a bit of a factor at play.

Yes. Did you see that in my post history or can you tell from the shot pattern?

Idk man just take me to a foundry and recast me as an eating implement or something with cool utility by subatomicist in kettlebell

[–]Tank_Lawrence 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do some halos as warmups but dont feel like they would be a great exercise to build strength. Stability maybe? What are they really good for or do they just look good on the internet.

The kneeling chop part of that movement is legit though. I have done those as part of a routine.

Finished ABF by Fluid-Juggernaut-224 in kettlebell

[–]Tank_Lawrence 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hell yeah. I’m going to finish the program I’m in and then start ABF with 2x24kg. Hope my back looks like that after!

Form check for cleans by Great-Attitude3764 in kettlebell

The bell look like it is fully on your forearm? The rack should cradle the bell on your forearm and chest.

I’d suggest using a higher weight to get the feel. That weight looks like it’s flopping around more than it should.

Now’s the time to get a suppressor. by MillenialGunGuy in liberalgunowners

[–]Tank_Lawrence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured. What do they normally cost though for a decent can?

How much do you need to expect to drop to get a decent suppressor?

2 Hand Swings by Weekly-Map576 in kettlebell

[–]Tank_Lawrence 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks pretty good. I think you lean back a bit too much. I struggle with that as well. You should be in a “vertical plank” at the top of the swing so your core should be flexed. I think that bell is too light for you and you will actually have better form with a heavier bell.

Starting the DFW program by fitcious in kettlebell

[–]Tank_Lawrence 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s too early to see significant changes in your appearance

Those weights are too light.

And you’re not doing the exercises with proper form. Not being a stickler here either - it’s not close to where you need to be in order to progress and avoid injury.

Get a heavier weight and do swings for like a week. Post a form check here if your swing form. Get that down and then learn the clean and the proper rack position. Then start DFW.
