TOOLS OF THE TRADE

.


i decided a while back that if i were to be doing this from home then i'd have everything i needed, and i mean EVERYTHING.

a list was produced, it increased in scope and length and finally became, what i hope to be, complete. during this planning and inventory stage it took on a life of it's own, and became a dream in many ways, a true "wish list" if you will. now, over the last few months, what was once unobtainable and seemingly never ending has been steadily chipped away at. the pullup bar was the second to last key instrument in compiling this residential symphony of destruction. with no attack strategy finalized the elusive concept 2 still looms on the horizon but beyond that i'ts just a matter of time before the rest of my list disappears and this little starfighter becomes fully operational.

Great list Clint. By the way, congrats on all your new PRs.

thanks, now if i can just "pr" on this whole nutrition thing...

as for the list, if i get a minute maybe i'll post the whole thing. it might be a good resource for someone else. other than the rope for slams most of the rest of it is pretty obvious stuff, it just took a litte while to round it up. i should have the logs by this weekend and just need to decide for sure on what vest to get. one thing i would recommend you look into for CFMK is a slamable med ball. there's a lot of great movements you could add to the mix. dballs are all i know of and i haven't found any alternatives. they're ok but not the most reliable product. they just don't last forever, then again, not many things do that you slam against the floor as hard as possible.
