This is a new group/lecture series called 'Be a Man' at my university. Didn't find out about until the first lecture was in process, but still thought I'd share. Very interested in this series.

Liam replied to Liam's discussion Moving towards my first muscle up"Yes I agree, unfortunately I don't have anything to record myself with.

Liam S. replied to Chris Hamm's discussion Who Wears a Watch Anymore?"Well "stylish" can mean many things.
Personally, for around $100, I would look at the Seiko 5 series. These are very solid automatic movements (no batteries, but no winding either - if you wear them). They are built well, and there is a…"
