Ah yes, should have mentioned that! I have an eu 43. I’d say they fit true to size. Same as my other feelgrounds, just a bit more security across the mid and heel. They have some printable charts on their website I believe 👍

@@LukeJonesMOVE thanks 🙏 Great feedback; as I ordered a pair of Classic Mesh from Feelgrounds but they were a tad small in my regular size: so going to go one up and get the Moves 🙏

Thank you for sharing 🙏 The staff is also one of my favourites to do the same with! There’s some interesting research around flow and how it can potentially improve outcomes in ptsd, anxiety and depression. Not necessarily as the sole treatment, but potentially an important piece of the puzzle that many miss out on!

Thanks for sharing Josh! Are the Feelgrounds your first barefoot/minimalist shoe? It can definitely take a little while for the body to adapt, and I’d typically recommend easing haha. I’m really glad to hear you’ve got on well with them since though mate!

Good question! The MOVE have a bit more room in the toebox, and the upper material is more elastic and a little thicker so I can see them lasting longer than my merrells (which I would routinely burst through the side of). I’m still a big fan of the early vapour gloves though! Both have a thin 4mm sole. I’d say the early merrells have a little more flexibility through the sole. the MOVE has the option of the additional 4mm inner which some might like 👍

Cheers pal!

You're more than welcome John, thank you very much for stopping by. Yes the options are almost endless when we form a foundation and then start exploring. Let me know how you get on, and if you have any questions at all!

Amazing! Fascinating that you found it organically. Perhaps we're somewhat drawn to movements that feel good and allow the nervous system to find a degree of balance? This is, to a degree, the basis of the Feldenkrais method and other somatic movement practices!

@LukeJonesMOVE Thanks 😊 Look up "Siniwali drills" for an example of the movements. Rodonda siniwali appears to be forward matador. I think there are a limited number of figure-8 motions - you find the same patterns in every weapon martial art. I started swinging by holding an 8 ft rope near the center - learning high and low, forward and back.... stepping in and out of it. The dragon roll is the only thing I found awkward - I don't have an analog movement for that one.

@LukeJonesMOVE Someone recorded me after ai had been spinning bats for 20 minutes - totally exhausted here - but ai bet you will be able to see similar patterns. ruclips.net/user/shortslh-DtBL-h68?si=ocD1kZUpUY0kqUW9

@@JohnBoen Amazing, thanks John I'll check that out! Yes there's an incredible overlap across various weapon classes - staffs, maces, clubs, swords, flails and beyond. The dragon roll is less intuitive for sure. I found it tricky initially. Like any skill though, it's just conscious practice, time and patience 👍

Thanks Joseph! Yes that's a good shout. I recently bought a new slam ball that I've been throwing around a fair bit. Great fun. Hope you're keeping well.

Thanks for sharing! Yes it can be difficult when we run into obstacles, injuries, illnesses etc. I feel like it's important to acknowledge the frustrations that come up and express those emotions in a healthy way. But then move towards looking at what we can change or control. Often easier said than done though!

Thank you, much appreciated! Hope there's some value there for you!

Cheers Joseph, they help me go faster!

Cheers - I’m glad it came across! And thank you for the insight, really appreciate it. You’ve given me a few more paths to explore! Subscribed to your channel too and looking forward to learning more 🙏

Cheers friend!

Similar, but not quite! The hanumans dance / tandem sneak is a combination of the underhand AND overhand sneak. It's a tricky but fun one to learn. There are some good tutorials out there but I'll put one of my own up soon on here as I learnt it a slightly different way :)

That’s a good strategy mate - one I’ve used myself! It really depends but anywhere from 6-12 kg can be a great starting place 👍 Err on the side of caution and build from there

Yep... 3:08 - Cossack Squat Regressions. 5:24 - Cossack Squat Progressions

Thanks for the insight mate! There certainly can be a link between nutrition and anxiety, and I've settled on a regime that works for me after 15+ years of experimentation with various modalities, supplementation etc. I had quite adverse effects from both CBG & CBD, and not ever noticed much difference with shroom complexes, unfortunately, so I guess it really varies from person to person! But I appreciate the suggestions! The things that have helped me the most are getting back to regular movement, journalling, somatic tracking, deep rest, self-compassion & therapy.

Ah great to hear it’s been helpful. And definitely can get the lungs working with a heavy rope or using knots on the end!

I see the same guy in my head when I'm swinging the rope around hah. Definitely applicable to various weapons - sticks, swords, mace, clubs, flail etc. All based around the same foundational movement patterns, then with slight tweaks

Absolutely!! Thank you for stopping by, appreciate it

Thank you for stopping by, and for the kind words. I’m glad the video was helpful! And it’s perfectly normal to have practices and tools that we dip in and out of! Happy flowing 🤙

Hiya Andrew mate, thank you for the comment - great to hear from you! Sorry to about the long covid. I know firsthand how rough that can be! Really glad to hear that you’ve started to see some improvements. It can be a long, rocky road to recovery, but the most important thing is to be patient and kind to yourself along the way. All the best pal, take care 👍

Thank you Joseph! It was a fun one to film down on the beach. We were hoping for the usual orange-pink sunset but had a cloudier day. Thanks for sharing Fandabi Dozi - I may well be a stickaholic too based on his latest video!

Yes, it’s definitely a rewarding practice to explore! I went for a 14mm poly braid rope initially, but have also made ones out of hemp and even recycled fishing rope. The beauty of it is that the exact material doesn’t matter too much - it’s more about the principles and enjoyment you gain from it!

@@LukeJonesMOVE Yes, very cool. Thanks for your answer. My rope is on its way

Excellent! Let me know how you get on!

Thank you my best pal ❤️

Cheers that’s great to hear! Thank you for watching!

no thanks

@@LukeJonesMOVE Alright sir. Just in case you might want to boost your UDEMY course, I'd like to be your safest plug sir. Thanks. Best regards

@@PrinBensonic cheers 👍

@@LukeJonesMOVE I can build website and mobile app if you're interested

@@LukeJonesMOVE I am also a website designer mobile app designer, just in case you might be interested.

Thank you! 🙏

Cheers Tamara, getting there slowly but surely! Haha keeping the nostalgia alive 🤘

Thanks for the kind words mate, happy to help!

@@LukeJonesMOVE no, thankyou! There should be a seperate platform like RUclips that only has quality people like you, you're a rare gem 🙏

Thank you Hayden, that means a lot!

You are welcome! Thanks Meredith!

You're welcome! Yep, build that foundation and the speed and power will come.

Thank you pal, top camerawork

Happy to help!! I’ve just released a follow along session too that you might find useful 👍

Thank you for the support as always Joseph! I agree, one of the big advantages of rope flow is that it's so accessible. I'd be interested to hear more about your stick training! What does a typical training session look like for you? I used to practice with a staff when I did Tang Soo Do as a teen, and have actually just started a form of Japanese Jiu-Jitsu that incorporates various weapons too.

Thanks Caroline. Great to hear!

Great job! Glad it helped 👍

Cheers! I've made a few with nylon, hemp, poly blends and recycled ropes from the beach. There's also the Weck method RMT rope, Octomoves, Way of the Rope - lots of options. The exact tool doesn't matter much to be honest - more the techniques and principles :)

@@LukeJonesMOVE Thank you Luke, again , I loved your video. I am 69 and I try to bust my ass everyday, I think rope flow could really help my spinal flexibility.

@@thomashowlin4353 Cheers Thomas! Great work. It can definitely be a useful tool for getting the spine moving in different ways. I've also found it's nice on the wrists, shoulders, ankles and hips too! And a nice way to wind down and quiet the mind

Thank you! 🙏

Thank you! Cheers!

Thank you, hope you’re keeping well

Haha doing my small part to break up the same old trending songs on here 🤘

@@LukeJonesMOVE Thank you for that! And for all the valuable videos and information, of course. :D

@@tc-3 Cheers Tamara! 🙏

That's the gist of it!
