| OPINIONS- Wearing branded gym apparel as a larger person/before you reach goals. Posted: 28 Aug 2020 04:57 AM PDT I've been working out for a while and eating better but recently had the privilege of paying a trainer to help me with a meal/workout plan. I'm still a bigger guy, starting out at 5'7", 300lbs, 48% body fat. I've made some progress on my own but hopefully with the help of the plans I'll pick up the pace a bit. Anyways- I don't have a ton of clothes as it is and I'd like to designate clothes specifically to wear at the gym so I'm not getting my regular casual clothes sweaty and dirty constantly. I've looked at Gymshark clothing a few times but can never bring myself to actually ORDER anything because I am still pretty big. Typically the only people I ever see wearing these brands already look amazing. I know everyone has to start somewhere but I get self conscious of myself. I know I personally wouldn't think anything of it if I saw a larger person wearing Gymshark or bodybuilding or etc but I need to know how YOU feel What are your thoughts on people wearing brands like Gymshark and Bodybuilding before they look like they go to the gym a lot? TLDR: afraid to wear Gymshark appeal because I still look fat, need opinion-can fat people wear gym brands to gym [link] [comments] |
| GMB Elements Review - The best program I have ever done Posted: 28 Aug 2020 05:31 AM PDT I have been writing reviews about all of the different things that have made my quarantine memorable. GMB Elements definitely fits into this category. Elements is not for everyone. Here are my disclaimers:
Now that that is covered, let me share why I loved Elements so much. It's a perfectly balanced program. I developed full body strength, flexibility, control and endurance. I felt like no part of me was overlooked. I had "wins" that were very different from other programs that I've done. My "win" is usually when I take my shirt off and someone comments on my physique. In Elements my "wins" were when:
Elements has changed my approach to working out. I had never focused on skills development before. I found the philosophy enjoyable and rewarding and I feel like I can never go back now. I will do Elements again someday. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 28 Aug 2020 10:19 AM PDT Brand new to them, able to hold a good L-sit for 6/7 seconds, And exercises which you think are really good? Goal: to try and get from an Lsit to a tucked position with complete control, I've had them for about a day, but I can't do a lot before the palms of my hands start hurting, I've researched how to grip the bar properly so my form is decent, but the palms of my hands won't stop burning up, will I get used to it in a couple days???

| Upper Lower split doesn't seem to be working too well for me Posted: 28 Aug 2020 10:54 AM PDT So I did the RR for maybe 9 months, and started doing an upper lower split maybe 2 months ago. This is what I do. I do a progression of each exercise, so pullups mean archer pullups rn for example. UPPER:
LOWER:
My schedule gets thrown off a lot, but I try to do each 2 times a week. U R L R U R L. My problem is that i often only do 2 sets of each on my upper day, meaning only 12 sets in the workout, meaning 24 sets a week. This is because I can't really get through the whole workout doing 3 sets. If I only did 24 sets / week, wouldn't this be far too little volume for hypertrophy? My other concern is that my core may not be getting enough time to rest, since I do BL, HSPU, FL rows, and other things that use my core a lot on my upper body day. If I did upper + core / lower, then my lower day would only have 2 exercises, and i might aswell just do a full body. I need some advice to modify / restructure my workout. Thank you!

| How to do a mini cut without training? Posted: 28 Aug 2020 10:48 AM PDT (BACKGROUND): I'm a 19 year-old mate 1,70m tall. I was weighing 83-84kgs in late February. I did an intense caloric deficit + cardio HIIT 3-4 times a week during 2 months and by late April I had lost 11-12kgs. Then I shifted to bulking, with emphasis on the upper body on shoulders, laterals, triceps and biceps (aiming for a V-shape) and I have been working on that training about 3 times per week for around 3,5 months. I'm going to get a tattoo in 2 weeks on my upper leg with 2 sessions (the first in 2 weeks and after 10 days approx the other session) and I will take care of it, so I won't be training for 20 days after the first session. So, the thing is that I have gained some fat and kilograms (I must be around 74-75KG now) and my body fat must be around 26-28% (When I just finished the cardio I had like 20-22% I think) and I'd like to do a mini cut, but how can I do it in this situation? I will be 3 weeks without training so I figured out that I can 2 either one of two things: Start right now the change of the diet to caloric deficit and hard cardio but limited (max 30min so I won't be taking my mass muscle as reserves of energy), then I get tattooed and keep the diet during the 3 weeks, after finishing I return to the bulking. Continue with the bulking until the last days before the tattoo, I make the change of the diet during the 3 weeks without training, some cardio after it (1 week) and then return to bulking What do you guys think it's more effective? Thanks PS: I'd be glad to hear some recommendations on how to avoid the loss of the mass muscle that I have gained so far given my situation. [link] [comments] |
| If I pair different groups, can my rest be cut significantly? Posted: 28 Aug 2020 10:44 AM PDT Most programs advise 90 second rests between sets. I'm a father and businessman, I lack time. If I do pull-up/squat, push up/body rows, ect, is it ok to have nearly no break? Simply moving and setting myself up. Is such a long rest really needed with pairing different muscle groups?

| How to find 1RM for pull-ups/dips? Posted: 28 Aug 2020 04:36 AM PDT How would you suggest finding your 1RM for weighted calisthenics moves, such as pull-ups and dips? My max rep in BW pull-ups is 11, and I'm new to weighted calisthenics, so let's say my 1RM now is 10kg. To find by 1RM, I have heard people suggest first I do like 5-8 BW pull-ups, then 1 rep 5kg, then 1 rep 7,5kg, then 1 rep 10kg, and then I can try different weights to test 1RM. I simply don't understand this method of tiring out before doing the actual test. Why not just try for let's say 12kg at first? Is it just warming up? Thank you in advance. [link] [comments] |
| Does incorporating top sets improve strength? Posted: 28 Aug 2020 07:45 AM PDT if the goal is to gain strength, is it beneficial to include a top set, then do backoff sets? which of these 2 programs would be more effective, if say, 50kg weighted pullups was the goal

| Posted: 28 Aug 2020 10:24 AM PDT What difference are found between: Pull up, pull up, pull up, next item 3x And a cross fit style circuit: Pull up, dip, squat, repeat 3 times. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 28 Aug 2020 06:07 AM PDT Alright guys I'm gonna try to hit this combo tonight when I hit the gymnastics gym (cuz they got pads and shit, love that place): Shrimp Flip 360 into Eagle Grip 360 into Shrimp Flip into 540 into Front Lever into Swing 360 into Mixed Grip 360 into L Sit on top of bar into Supra 180 pullover backflip off Good? What do y'all think, lmk! [link] [comments] |
| Anyone have experience with the tricep/midback strength being a limiting factor for the v-sit? Posted: 28 Aug 2020 05:24 AM PDT Progressed a lot on my v sit attempts over quarantine getting to around 70 degrees off the ground. But it got pointed out to me I was protracting my shoulders a lot during the movement. Now I'm working on retracting my shoulders (well attempting to retract but really just putting it into a neutral position) but I find my triceps and romboids give out after just a few seconds. Anyone have experience building strength in the triceps and romboids in that position. I feel like my compression and ab strength is already at 90% what it needs to be for a full v sit, it's just this part that's holding me back. [link] [comments] |
| still there is a hope to get rid of osteoarthritis without surgery Posted: 28 Aug 2020 10:37 AM PDT Hiii everyone, it is a privilege meeting you all here to share my views on weight gain issue and how to tackle it so that you will not face severe problems like osteoarthritis or similar problems. My maternal cousin uncle staying at UK was facing the problem of Osteoarthritis last year. He suffered from Joint pains in knee cap and inflammation in the feets. It was so severe that doctors asked for surgery but due to Covid-19 pandemic, his surgery scheduled in February this year was bound to stop due to lockdown. One day when the pain in his joints was so severe that he couldn't bear, he visited the doctor nearby. The doctor stated him the major issue for his joint pain are due to his obesity and recommended him to lose weight. When this news reached me, I searched for ways online that could help my cousin uncle reduce his joint pain without going through any surgeries. I researched regarding many supplements, personally went through many customer review pages and many youtube channels and finally got a 100% natural, safe and organic health dietary plan that gave immense satisfactory results without any side effects within a month. As the secondary and tertiary sectors of world economy have grown since 1991, many people all around the world, between the ages of 25 to 55 years, are facing the overweight issue. To solve this problem, a supplement known as Resurge has been made and has proven to help many people with effective weight loss. Other formulaes aside this plan have failed in addressing this particular concern especially of so many professional middle aged adults (of trimming up their excess pounds and getting in shape). It works faster by triggering metabolic activities of the body and also nourishes the body to help in living a better lifestyle. So, we can rely on Resurge to be safe and efficient as this formula accelerates the fat burning processes of the body resulting in higher energy level. Every capsule of this plan is manufactured in the United States of America, approved by the FDA and certified by the GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) facility under the most sterile, strict and precise standards. But in case of any medical complication, feel free to consult a doctor. As we grow older, more and more problems begin to occur and they cannot be stopped instantly. Human metabolism slows down and this can eventually lead to various diseases and massive overweight in the body. This effective dietary plan helps its consumers to control signs and symptoms of aging and promises controlled weight loss. As a result, one's quality of life improves as this product works specifically while sleeping. It is a game changing program that increases both power and energy rapidly within an individual while carrying out their day- to- day activities. It makes a person stronger in sound health and helps them escape obesity. Critics who have reviewed this supplement say that it plays a major role in solving sleep deprivation and is a major cause of weight loss of the body. 1 month before, I bought this plan online for my cousin uncle and guess what, it is quite good to tackle from osteoarthritis and obesity problem from my point of view. The product has succeeded being too essential supplement for people of all ages all over the world who are suffering from weight gain or who are unable to get enough sleep at night.
