gave up gift-wrap 3 years ago in favor of the 🇯🇵 style of cloth or #furoshiki - to reduce waste. Cloth can be returned or reused.

Wrapping using only folds knots is HARD and this is my best try so had to take a pic to flex 🤣

Friends expecting baby boy.
Gift is artisan incense.

It’s a bittersweet victory because we now see Disney in a completely different light.

a hack helping with transition practice from #frontlever > #invertedhang > #backlever using a band. Despite using the lightest band, 2X looping created too much tension vs body weight, preventing full range of motion. 💡 Ankle weights. 😉

Nice! When you feel ready, uncross the ankles, straighten legs and point toes at the floor.

Abs will TREMBLE haha

Apologies for the delayed response, looking forward to seeing more of your posts 😃 way too much overlapping interests to ignore hahaha

You can planche, period!! 😂

I’m jealous 😅

Josh @goshadowkenneth.bsky.social · Sep 13

i like how simple this looks - dead hang > knees to chest > L-sit - but holy moly that looks taxing!

nice control 💪

Josh @goshadowkenneth.bsky.social · Sep 13

I call fake news on “train anywhere” cause structural safety and public discourse are two HUGE unspoken obstacles in the calisthenics scene 🤣

The fat degradation is their cope, not your burden. Good looking flag 👍

My grandparents survived the cultural revolution. They would be mortified to see this kind of propaganda in 2025.

thx4recommend! i was 2x pronated too, thumb under, when the bar slipped. going in, I expected my grip to be sufficient from all the hanging but in hindsight, I’ve never hanged with double BW either 😅 But I def. could’ve held it if not for grip.

Josh @goshadowkenneth.bsky.social · Aug 25

it’s beyond politics, at least from my lens - just this sense of “when did all this moral depravity become normal? when did people become like this?” this overwhelming sense of horror

Josh @goshadowkenneth.bsky.social · Aug 23

👏 👏 👏

We’re on a similar or overlapping programming or something. I swing around for fun but have strength coaches to maintain a baseline - but I 1RPR’ed just shy of 300 today 😀😀😀 @ BW 143 (bar slipped out of grip trying to hold at the top tho 🙁)

Her very circumstance (serving justice) makes anything she says a liability to what releasing the files would accomplish.

as a teenager in a parent-aged body, this is a regular argument i have with myself - and the rebellion is satisfying yet triggering at the same time

I’d say it does but who am I lol - one thing, (hard to tell from angle but) it doesn’t look like you’re going full vertical at the top - aka rest on scaps, lower back vertical in line with legs together and tip-toes (ideal maintained form).

Just a range of motion thing, otherwise super impressive 🙌

I am this old and this just reminded me that I need to Google if swimming while it’s cloudy will cause a lightning strike. Sorry, I have boomer parents 🤣

#throwback pic popped up in my #Memories that literally made me stop in my tracks. I had to compare 2017 to 2025.

💯 unintentional #weightloss. All I did was replace drinking with #calisthenics … which I had to adopt healthier habits to improve in …
