| How has RR helped you increasing your lean body mass/decreasing your body fat content? Posted: 18 Aug 2020 11:26 AM PDT I am in my 20s. A few years back, I was in shape and at a nearly athletic level in terms of muscle content. I never really had to worry much about what I ate, or how much, also because my routine was quite intense. But since, my lifestyle changed quite a bit and I started gaining a fair amount of fat. My body is starting to look flabby and I don't really want that for myself anymore. I'm currently at 21% and I would love to go back to feeling strong (at most 15%) and not feeling completely sore every time I try to exercise. Do you think this is a feasible goal through the RR? For those who kept track of this sort of thing, how did your BMI, body fat and/or lean body mass progress? How did you combine cardio and the RR to achieve the goals? [link] [comments] |
| Tricep and bicep exercises while recovering from tendonitis? Posted: 18 Aug 2020 11:27 AM PDT Got a pretty bad case of tendonitis all along my left forearm (top of wrist to side of bicep area) from a combination of climbing and repetitive use due to my job. Haven't been able to exercise or do any of my normal activities for about a month now, but I'm getting restless regarding my fitness. I'm a pretty lean guy so just doing purely cardio and stretching during this time is going to make me a bean pole. What upper body muscle building exercises can I still do without further damaging the tendons? Thanks [link] [comments] |
| Different Types and Benefits of Doing Lunges Posted: 18 Aug 2020 11:10 AM PDT |
| Posted: 18 Aug 2020 12:33 PM PDT Im fairly new to pushups, and was wondering when the motion will become less hostile like when you lift in the gym? [link] [comments] |
| Think I may have lost muscle and strength.... need help figuring this out Posted: 18 Aug 2020 12:25 PM PDT I am an early 20s male, 6"2 around 165lbs. So before COVID broke out in March, I was dumbbell benching 34kgs on each side. I weighed about 190lbs here, and somewhat high bodyfat (mid 20s%). So then the virus happened and I had to resort to home workouts. I began by doing weighted bodyweight exercises. I could barely do pushups with 15kg on my back. Several months later, I'm doing pushups with 40kg on my back with good form (low reps, only 4 to 5. Sets of 4). I can also now pull up 25kg attached to me. Before trying that, I couldn't do a single weighted pullup. So gyms re opened recently and I went back. I could only dumbbell bench 30 on each side this time. Did I genuinely lose strength and muscle ? Cos I thought I was gaining strength as seen with my weighted bodyweight exercises. Or was I lifting slightly less because I just wasn't used to the motion as much? [link] [comments] |
| Better to rest of push out a workout Posted: 18 Aug 2020 10:16 AM PDT So i have a question regarding to rest to workout. I work a very physical job already and have been doing the RR. On a workout day sometimes im so exhausted that I either skip or I do a modified workout. For example, I'm doing stomach to wall handstand push-ups. If im supee tired I do like instead so I dont hurt myself. On these days is it better to just get a full days rest? I always hit 2 workout days this only happens about once a week.

| Getting your ass over the bar during Korean Dips Posted: 18 Aug 2020 04:02 AM PDT I have mastered a fair amount of dip variations both on bars and on rings. I can do Russian Dips, Bulgarian Ring Dips, L-Sit dips and even full 90 degree RTO Dips (which are actually somewhat similar to Koreans). I think it's far to say i have the strength to do Korean Dips and when i try them i seem to have no issue getting in the position and initiating the push. However, no matter how hard i try, my (big) ass always bumps into the bar and i just cant seem to get it over. This frustrates me immensely, i know i could just as well skip the Korean Dips as i wouldn't say they are necessary to master per se, but since i'm a completionist i would still like to be able to do them. Could it just be a shoulder/hip flexibility issue? Should i use more momentum by allowing my hips to lower down more before pushing? I've tried a lot but it just won't work so far. Would like to hear some thoughts:) [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 17 Aug 2020 01:55 PM PDT I've been doing ring work for about a year now and have the rings hanging from a tree branch. The branch is weak enough that it bends and sways when I am on it. Wouldn't this make the rings even harder than the are making it even more unstable? Am I getting more benefit or would it just be better to build a bar? [link] [comments] |
| Anyone using crawls extensively? Posted: 17 Aug 2020 10:45 PM PDT In pre-COVID days I played around with bear crawls and tabletop crawls, but didn't stick with it. Has anyone here used them extensively in their workout, and did you find them worthwhile? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 17 Aug 2020 03:28 PM PDT So, while trying to work out with calisthenics, I was reading a little bit into Primal movements and saw some of the benefits that could add with your training (conditioning, mobility, flexibility). I'm wanting to get more into it so it can compliment my training, so what recommendations do you guys have on video sources or good books that also get into talking about Primal movements and showing how to do them and such?

| three phasic periodization: anaerobic capacity - accumulation - intensification Posted: 17 Aug 2020 04:05 PM PDT The three known mechanics of muscle hypertrophy are muscle cell damage, mechanical tension/load and metabolic stress. While the intensification phase increases the mechanical tension factor the accumulation part is good for increasing muscle cell damage (eccentric training and overall more volume). What however about implementing a HIIT training phase for increasing the metabolic stress? One study showed that HIIT does create a lot of metabolic stress. Any experience /ideas and thoughts or in depth information? [link] [comments] |
