I hurt today.

As I was finishing my deadlifts on Saturday I saw a guy demonstrating what looked remarkably like static trapeze exercises on the pull up bar. I went over to ask if that's what it was. Next thing I know I'm doing stupid human tricks with a guy who's sent in tape to audition for American Ninja Warrior, and a woman who expects to qualify in the next CrossFit regionals. I showed them the silk L climb, he showed me his "hopping from pull up bar to other pull up bar", I showed them meat hooks, she did this lovely dance-y hanging twist thing...

But I'm older than they are. Ouch. Kids today, with their plyometric strength, and their stamina...

I pointed the guy at Esh, I think that he'll be like a kid in a candy store.

Let me just say that I learned some good tricks at silks last night...
