Correct. I guess I didn't make myself clear. I'm hanging from the door itself, as in the only grip I can do is palms facing away.Matt Z wrote:I don't think he's hanging from the door frame. I think he's handing from the door itself.

Either you're very light, or that's one hell of a door. Even if the frame and the door hold up, wouldn't that make the door hang funny? I'm relatively light (155 pounds) and the door is pretty sturdy, but I'm not sure what the big deal is. Should I keep on doing this elbow leverage thing or should ...

Door pull ups versus Regular pull ups
First off, which are harder? I haven't been able to access a gym in a few months, so I use my door to do pullups.
Second, I feel that door pullups work the biceps more than regular pullups. Does anyone know how door pullups compare to reguloar pullups?

For cardio, have you tried HIIT yet? http://www.musclemedia.com/training/hiit.asp
I sound like a broken record because I say this so much but I absolutely love HIIT. Try it out for a few weeks., you have nothing to lose.

If your body can handle it, I would suggest doing HIIT. (http://www.musclemedia.com/training/hiit.asp).
It has done wonders for me in terms of losing fat while maintaining body weight.

determine broken bones?
I played frisbee on the beach last night and while I was cutting to the disc, I planted my foot into another person's foot quite hard. The foot was hit quite hard and for the rest of the game, it was in pain, but I just played through it. This morning, it's more of the same kind of pain, but I can s...

Pistols (1 legged squats) are really great for lower body.
Hand stand pushups (as said before) are really a great excercise for your upper body.
If you're feeling adverturous, try doing some gymnastic level bodyweight excercises like tuck planches. http://www.dragondoor.com/articler/mode3/229/

I can say that I have seen both being consumed, and in fact consumed alcohol myself. I will never use weed. Period. So I must side with alcohol being the safer choice. This is mostly based on the possibilty of psychological addiction to weed, as well as it being smoked (affecting the lungs directly...

I just did HIIT last night for 8 minutes, going as hard as possible throughout. By the last half of the final sprint, my quads were cramping up big time. Today, they are still slightly tight. Personally, I treat HIIT as if it were another leg excercise. I usually do it after I finish any strength tr...

RyanA, Interesting point. The legalization of drugs makes much sense in terms of economic advantages. First off, we can cut spending on the war against [email protected][email protected]@. No more expensive cop raids on homes to find teenagers with a bag of weed. More importantly, it will cut down on arrests. Simply put, it ...

The legalization of [email protected][email protected]@ will never happen in the US, at least not in our life times. Who would bring about this change?
