Spending the whole day on one blog post...steemCreated with Sketch.

I have spent hours on this guy:

Tips for the Ninja Warrior Course

I can't believe how long it took. I've never done a post like that before... I couldn't get the colours to go across the full screen if I made it a Wordpress Post, so I had to make it a page... but making it a page disabled the comments, which was the whole point of the entire post... to start some discussion.

In the end I couldn't work it out (I did have comments enabled in two different places, but still no luck) so I set up a forum discussion thread for it.. but it's not going to be the same at all... people will have to click onto another extra thing.

I'm pretty frustrated with spending so long on it... time to get out and get exercising... I can't break my SteemIt promise on the 2nd day...

Blurgh!

I just hope my fellow ninja warriors get some value out of it... else I kinda wasted a whole Sunday...

Incredible! That video was something else, especially moving those pegs! Holy cow! As far as pull-up training, I tried negative pull ups and even those were too hard at first (it sounds pathetic, I know) so the officer helping me train had me use one of those resistance bands, and wrap it around the bar and put the handles on my feet and pull myself up that way. I still can't do a full pull up but I am a lot closer!!

I may not be crazy or attractive enough to help you get on tv, but I will be watching at home if you do! Awesome post, I can see why this took you so long!

Thank you so much! I'm not sure if all the colours really go together, but I had fun putting it together.. even if there might have been some mini-manly temper tantrums along the way.

Yeah, Drew could very easily be said to be the best Ninja Warrior in the world. He didn't get super far this year but he's been consistently up there. He runs his own ninja gym, so he really is playing on all this stuff 60 hours a week.

You wouldn't happen to have access to a weighted pullup machine would you?

The resistance bands are really good. It really isn't pathetic... apparently only 3% of women in the world can do a pull up, so don't be too hard on yourself. I would assume most men couldn't either. It's really super hard.

Hahahaha, you could sing me through the course! But thank you... I can honestly say that I will be very public about when I get on and when it's aired... although I heard only about 20 of the 120 ninjas that run the course each night actually get on TV... yikes.
