Just tried a dead hang. I only lasted about 32 seconds.
What gave out? Forearm/grip?
Not sure. I was just a quick test and I did not put much thought into it. Maybe I'll try to be a bit more methodical the next time.
Yeah, I was thinking a competent parent would have prevented the kid from falling from a cruise ship into the ocean in the first place.
We were newly married at that time. In fact Lucas was a glimmer in my rum addled eye that trip…
Cruises are fine. It's the railings you should not trust.
But come to think of it, had Karla been out there without you for a while beforehand?
@Mik said in Dad of the year, 2025:
One does wonder how a five year old got over the railing.
When Karla and I were on a cruise 20 years ago, I leaned against the railing, and the entire section opened up. Turns out it was a gate that wasn’t secured. I was suspended over open ocean. I have no trust of cruises, and even less now after reading this.
An exercise that makes one look like a total doofus is optimal for those who look like total doofi no matter what they're doing.
Yeah, but full body weight hanging is not the place to start. Do some shoulder machines aat the gym.
