Carl Harrower thanks, yes itโ€™s been great. But honestly โ€œnew normalโ€ kicks in, way too quick.

Being process focused, and enjoying the daily grind is actually more fulfilling ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป so if I should give any advice from own experience:

The journey is the real goal, less result oriented and more focus on the process.

Inspired by some of you guys getting started I went back in my photo gallery to check my own progress.
Needless to say back then I didnโ€™t take any pictures of my physic so all I have to go on is my face.
There is about a 60 lbs difference and looks like all that was on my face ๐Ÿ˜‚
So to all the new ones, we all started somewhere. But we all have one thing in common, we decided enough and we started taking action just as you do now ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป and no it was not a 3 month transformation me, but a lifestyle change ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป one day at a time and sooner than you think you will not recognise the old you.
Now go #DoTheThing ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป

You got this ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿปyou decided something needs to change.. remember you didnโ€™t put the weight on over night and it wonโ€™t disappear over night eighter..

I was 266lbs when I decided to change and now Iโ€™ve been staying at +/- 200lbs for +1yr. And if I can do it anybody can ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป

FYI itโ€™s not a diet or a quick fix, itโ€™s a new lifestyle so donโ€™t sweat it if your progress is slower that you would want. All progress IS progress ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

15 days inโ€ฆ youโ€™re on ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Looks great ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป what you need most of all is time ๐Ÿ•ฐ๏ธ you need the reps to get better ๐Ÿ™‚

Looks like you hands could be closer to your body, but looking at the rope length that might not work and cause additional tripping. Perhaps look into a shorter rope, so you can get the hands closer to your body.

Also would be great to have e side view also, as itโ€™s hard to see the bend in your knees, how straight your back is.

Looks like your jump height is ok, looks like itโ€™s a bit too high but that will come with experience and reps with the rope ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

Last thing try to stay in the same spot on your mat, you are wandering a bit ๐Ÿ™‚

All in all, just #DoTheThing ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป

Hope you use some of what I said here ๐Ÿ˜

WHi fam ๐Ÿ‘‹
Been doing some stretches only the last week or so, and today decided to pick back up the rope! ๐Ÿฅณ
Got in the 10 min of jumping I said I would, and boy was it had to stop ๐Ÿ›‘ even if I did what I wanted. But held myself back and did a quick yoga session also.
No need to come back only to get injured again ๐Ÿ™
Have a great day all ๐Ÿ™

Thanks, have a tendency to come back with a vengeance ๐Ÿ™ˆ so thatโ€™s something I need to be aware of and try to ease back into it.. ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป
