Just like everyone else, I live. This is what I discover.

Spread my wings and fly away.
Haven’t ‘posed’ for awhile haha. Felt like having a little fun.
Our bodies are designed to move, and we should train as such. My training revolves around eventually performing certain skills.
But, no one should deny that piece of your mind that desires to look good. Call it ego if you wish, but looking good means you look healthy. That’s my idea of looking good anyway.
Haha look at my face
A friend of mine, Ethan, was reading my blog. He is one of the guys I’m helping out by giving them some training at the moment. He’s 16, and he’s a black belt in my dojo, but hasn’t done a whole lot of other training.
He was impressed with my writing, and the photos I post. He said my “posts are quality” haha.
He mentioned he’d like to know how to look like I do. Funny, because I know I have a lot of work to do. Still, I mentioned I’d come a long way since I very first joined a gym in 2009. I didn’t really know what I was doing, and didn’t until this year really, but I sought out a picture to show him for a comparison.
This is me in 2009. Oh how so much changes. Pretty sure I’m wearing girls jeans there. Gotta love seeing your previous self.
Tiny tiny little obliques you are no good for flagging. #progress #selfie #before #fitness #ability
Slow progress is progress.
Can’t wait till I’m not travelling every week.

Some L-sit fun
Pull up progress
Yesterday I did 5 wide grip pull up and then 5 shoulder width(standard) grip pull ups without dropping from the bar. Today I did 10 standard grip pull ups in one set. I’ve never done more than 9 before this, and even when I did those 9 the last two weren’t all the way. I reached double digit pull ups :) Feels good!
Always progressing.
I should do another handstand video that’s where my real progress has been.

Week Six Photo Update!
Thought I had uploaded these already.
Can’t tell if I’m standing horribly or it’s just the angle of the photo, looks bad either way.

Week Five Photo Update!
Very belated, but here you go. These were taken on time it’s just taken me awhile to update. Enjoy ;)

Week Four Photo update!
I’ll let you guys decide how I’m progressing… I like what I’m seeing :)

Week 3 Photo Update!
Due to my “slow” week, there probably isn’t much difference. Time to go crazy this week!
-Zachary
Week 2 Photo Update!
Not really any notable change, but that’s expected. Filling out in my lower core a little, and filling up in my obliques a bit. Good!
If I get some time tomorrow I’ll set up a page with all the photos for comparison.
Feedback always welcome!
