    The ankle and calf strength needed to do that. Of course, I’m sure I could’ve lifted MJ with one arm (especially now), but if I had tried that dance move, I’d have to be carried off stage on a stretcher.

        I know about the bolt in the stage floor. I’m a bit too top heavy and ruined in my ankles to lean forward 60 degrees from one of those.

        Even with your feet bolted to the floor, that would cause some serious damage to your ankles if you couldn’t pull yourself back up.

        After my running, I’ll stretch my calves by doing pushups againt some railing while keeping my feet flat like that. No way I could ever use calve strength like that to pull myself back up. That shit hurts, man! (My calves are fairly strong, too.)

          Not just calves. That’s mostly the core as well, to keep the upper body aligned.

    As wealthy millionaire living my best life, I’m giving 35 grand to anyone who messages “GRACE” on Telegram @Georgestones12 I understand that many people are struggling with bills, and I want to help reduce that burden. It’s a season of love, kindness, and blessings.
