| An update! To My calisthenics journey exactly one year apart Posted: 13 Jul 2020 07:04 PM PDT A lot of you asked me to update you guys every once in a while so here's a small little update on MY TRAINING ARC or my fitness journey or whatever you guys wanna call it. I call it my training arc cuz every strong anime character goes through one of these. So my goals rn are: more muscle, more strength, more endurance, and ofc to stay healthy and lean at a bf I'm comfortable being in A few of the goals (skills) I've achieved throughout these 20 days or so are the Front lever : https://imgur.com/gallery/vKzUFkV I just learned it less than a week ago and I plan on getting strong with it enough to incorporate into my workout Ik it's not perfect form yet. Full Planche: https://imgur.com/gallery/pOaUbFY Ik it's not the best form but it's litteraly like one of my first ever planches so whatever ofc I'm going to try to fix it and get better with it And while I'm at it showing you guys what I can do I'll show you guys my human flag which imo is a pretty easy static for me HF: https://imgur.com/gallery/bzm910i I got a dip bar in my room last week (the one you can see in the front lever vid) and now I basically have a gym in my room and I don't need to use the 2 chairs and a bar I was using so that's good, got it off amazon for $100 worth every penny! My graduation gift to myself lol DIET; same as always I love it- for breakfast it's always french toast or pancakes, for snacks/lunch/dinner it's wraps, chicken bakes, ice cream, popcorn, oatmeal, salads, ect ->the Greg doucette<- diet honestly so easy to stay in shape when you eat like this man- maintaining at like 2000 calories rn I shit you not Dr Greg has changed my life sm for the better SIMPLY JUST BY WATCHING HIS YOUTUBE CHANNEL LIKE 15 minutes a day, from training to diet to basic human stuff he is awesome 10/10 recommend In the meantime I joined this servers discord server; eh wouldn't recommend theirs a lot of toxic people and stuff that just suck the vibes out of you Anyways for my training- I've been practicing front lever and skills on my off days and I'm still training FULL BODY twice a week and I switched up the routine once again but still sticking to the basics and challenging myself Progress; even though I don't follow a ROUTINE I still see progress because I keep challenging myself "well if you don't follow a routine how do you know if you've made progress?" The skills show me progress (Front lever, Planche, ect) and testing out PRs on like Pullups show me progress, there's multiple ways to track this. Few pointers I'll give you guys, if you want to learn a skill you need to practice it outside of your workout, if you only practice the skill you want to learn in your workouts it's gonna take way longer and it'll be harder (this applies to a basic pull-up and to advanced skills like front lever). Next training to failure is good theirs a lot of people that disagree with this but failure is good just learn how to incorporate it when it's needed. Next, compare yourself to nobody cuz you're better than them. It might sound a little vein (forgot the word used to describe people that think highly of them self's so I'll just use vein because I think that's the right word) only you can set your own limits and if you compare yourself to anyone or let anyone's opinions affect you this could EASILY affect your training in a bad way, stick to your goals! My opinions on the RR; it's made for normal people who want normal progress. I don't want normal progress I want to be stronger and better than a normal person so I make my own routines- it sounds stupid but all these barstarzz athletes and world record holders DONT TRAIN LIKE NORMAL PEOPLE THEY TRAIN TO ABSOLUTE MUSCLE FAILURE and they make their own routines. Discuss with me all you like but following an average routine will give you average results- now I'm not bashing the rr it's great if you want to be fit but I'm just saying if you want something more specific or if you want to be super strong I wouldn't do it, i would do something tailored to my goals... but that's just me don't listen to me. Anyways that's the update Ik it's kinda long- as always I'll answer any questions regarding diet, training, life questions idk whatever you guys ask me Went over diet, training, my progress, and gave out a few pointers and my opinion on rr [link] [comments] |
| Physically demanding job,looking for a sufferable routine. Posted: 14 Jul 2020 05:37 AM PDT What's up everyone,as the title says,I work a physically demanding job,7/7 days a week.I also play volleyball twice a week,and doing the full body RR twice a week as well...Recently I suffered from overexhaustion,which made me go over my training options.Of course,work schedule can't change,and I'd like to keep my volleyball sessions as they are.My question is,do you think doing a Full Body RR just ONCE a week,with some light skill work in it,be sufficient to slowly progress,while still keeping my recovery in check? Would appreciate any feedback,thank you in advance. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 14 Jul 2020 04:21 AM PDT Hello. I've (M29) been doing the RR from a complete beginner for 18 months now and I'm in the best shape of my life. I've made decent progress but I've lost out on the max potential due to a couple of reasons
The first point has been rectified recently. To elaborate on the second: I've found it hard to get the motivation/time/discipline to do a full RR workout on a Fri/Sat/Sun. As a result I'm only getting 8-10 workouts a month compared to the optimal 12. My hope is that moving to a upper/lower/full split will let me get the same benefits as 3 RR sessions, but due to the split, I can work: Mon (upper), Tue (lower), rest, Thurs (Full). My question is - Is this enough? Or is one upper and lower not enough per week? I could potentially squeeze something in on the Wednesday if there is a better suggestion, but I like to do short HIIT sessions on my off days during the week. (optional quest) - If you have good resources/suggestions for putting together the lower/upper routines I'd love to see them. Thanks. [link] [comments] |
| Recommended Routine Before/After Posted: 14 Jul 2020 12:43 PM PDT This progress is from January 2020 to today (July 14 2020). I've worked out inconsistently for a while but quarantine kicked my commitment to RR into gear. I was about the same weight/looked the same in March as I did in January so most of the progress has been made since then. Not where I wanna be yet but much closer than I've ever been. I'm 5'7. Weight went from ~157 to 148. I've been doing intermittent fasting for about a month, which helped with body composition I think. Apologies for the poor quality. I'm bad at selfies. I'd been doing pull-ups off and in for years, mostly using the Russian Fighter Pull-up program (admittedly only 3 times a week instead of 5). Which is probably why there's a little less difference in the back. When I started I could do 6 pull-ups. I worked my way up to 10, then switched to weighted pull-ups a couple weeks ago. I'm at 5 pull-ups with 25 lbs. I've had gymnastics rings for a while but didn't use them much until quarantine. Worked my way from not being able to do a ring support hold for more than 10 seconds to 3x5 ring dips with 25 lbs. Been working on a pistol squat since March. I think I need to mix things up. Used Saturno's Pistol Squat routine to get a single elevated pistol squat on my right leg but I'm stalled out there. I do ankle dorsiflexion stretches often with a band but I'm open to other stretches/advice on how to get there. Other exercises: Ring rows: 3x8 ->3x10 with 40 lbs Hinge: single leg deadlifts 3x10 -> 3x12 of the single leg variants of hamstring ring curl in this video. Push-ups: 3x8 ring pushups -> 3x8 RTO pushups Also been working on skin-the-cats/front lever/back lever and handstand but they're not my main focus currently. The biggest thing that helped my progress was switching from doing the full routine every other day to doing half the routine every day. So pull-ups/squats/dips one day then rows/hinge/push-ups + the core routine (with ab wheel) the next. I know this isn't recommended but once my joints and tendons adapted to the initial stress I felt like I was recovering quickly enough for it to not be a problem. It probably also helps that I take 5 minute breaks between every set (which makes the workouts super long but also gives me time to watch stuff I've put off on Netflix). Open to any advice or questions! Thanks to this community for building such a well-rounded program 🙏 [link] [comments] |
| How to increase static hold times? Posted: 14 Jul 2020 12:33 PM PDT I know there's grease the groove for increasing reps and low rep-weight for increasing strength, but what about static hold times? I've been progressing pretty well with strength exercises, but I can't seem to improve my static holds. As an example, I've been trying to improve my wall assisted handstand hold and I basically was stuck at around 40 seconds for a month. My L-sit has also been stuck at around 15 seconds for a while. I've also been trying (although not as much as the two previous things) to increase my ring support hold time and bar dead hang time, but they've been pretty stagnant as well. I've gotten to 25kg 3x5 reps for both pullups and dips from bodyweight. In that same time, I've only really gotten to about 45s from around 30s. I feel so much more comfortable on rings and a bar that it first feels like I can stay there forever, but then I get tired really fast and have to drop off. Maybe 30s to 45s is correct, but I'd still like to work on my static holds. Any tips for that? Thanks! [link] [comments] |
