On The Bandwagon

So I jumped on the Vibram Five Finger bandwagon
I have to admit that I wanted a pair from the first time I saw them which was on Craig Weller's feet in his Death March article
I found them on a recent trip to Singapore as here in Malaysia its so bloody hard to find anything!


Oh and no I will not be doing any barefoot running as anybody who knows me or has read through this blog will know it will be a very cold day in hell before you see me doing any running of any kind!




Hmmm!! perhaps I should have waxed before the photo




But I have always preffered to squat and deadlift barefoot so the Vibrams give me that barefoot comfort and still give me the stability and force production that comes from being connected to the ground properly
and they are just fantastic for Kettlebell drills, and as my workouts mainly consist of TRX bodyweight and KB drills these days they are perfect.




As you can see from the photos my floors are marble so not the most forgiving when doing mountain climbers or jump squats barefoot hence the fact I am now a very happy bunny!


Sadly there has been a lack of Sunday madness sessions to report here on the blog 
but with it being the festive season and all plus we have chinese new year looming in January I dare say we wont get back in to full swing until february
