Mission: be like bamboo — strong as steel, but flexible, too.
I left the military strong on paper, but battered underneath. Years of hard graft left me with busted knees, tight shoulders, and the kind of stiffness that meant I couldn’t sit cross-legged or touch my toes. I thought I was strong, until I realised I wasn’t moving well, just muscling through.
Turning that around became priority — rebuilding my body, regaining mobility, and learning what true strength actually means: the kind that lasts.
Got bored of the gym, started swinging bells in the garden and banging out old-school pull ups and push ups. Then came the calisthenics rabbit hole — wall HSPUs, pistol squats, the lot. Mobility was the missing link, so I got stuck into that too.
Still learning, always will be. This channel’s part diary, part blueprint. If it lights a fire under one person, just one time — then even better.
