| Posted: 26 Sep 2020 01:53 AM PDT I've reached a basic level of strength that, although not terribly impressive in absolute terms, allows me to live healthily and partake in virtually any athletic activity I'm interested in. I suspect that training just to maintain my level requires far less effort, is that so? And how would I do it? Funnily enough I couldn't find anything on this in the FAQ. For example, right now I'm able to do 20 dips. Would performing 2 times 20 dips twice a week be enough? And I'd do the same for the other exercises of course. [link] [comments] |

| Thinking of trying movement training. Any thoughts or tips? Posted: 26 Sep 2020 10:39 AM PDT The title says it all. Does anyone have any experience with movement also known as flow training? I'm thinking of giving it a go. Till now I've been doing basic calisthenics(variations of pushups,pullups,squats) for some time and I've gotten quite bored of it. I tried some movement training exercises when I had my shoulder rehabilitation and I had fun doing some basic movements like bear crawls. It also and please someone correct me if I'm mistaken but movement training seems to be a good balance of strength,balance,mobility... My goals are just to have a toned body nothing crazy for instance if I were a more walmart version of al kavadlo that kind of body would be more than enough. So if anyone has experience could you please answer some questions. Can a good body be achieved by only doing movement training or should I combine it with normal calisthenics? If so how and are there any good resources to get started preferably free since I'm a student money is tight. I assume you guys are hella strong... am I wrong? Also waaay way of topic but I won't open a new thread for a trivial question has anyone tried Charles Salvador aka. Charlie Bronson's(the prisoner not the actor) methods? [link] [comments] |
| Pull up training — Basement ideas Posted: 26 Sep 2020 07:17 AM PDT WFH and looking for basement ideas to improve pull-ups. Not confident enough in the pull-up bars that go into the doorframe. I only have 7 1/2 ft ceilings. Suggestions please. Would the machine that basically has you doing pull-ups at an angle be sufficient enough. I know my options are limited due to ceiling height or I would just buy a rack but most are too tall. [link] [comments] |
| Bodyweight vs CrossFit rest times / sets amount Posted: 25 Sep 2020 07:36 PM PDT I started CrossFit after almost a year of bodyweight training and to some extent my body is pretty well suited for it, BUT, rest times are almost null and repetitions are up to 100 in some exercises. What difference should it make on my body the change of sets and rest times? Honestly now I feel like I undertrained all of this year knowing I can do now for example 5 sets of 30 pull-ups alternating with pushups [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 25 Sep 2020 02:16 PM PDT Is the unit defective? Or did I assemble it incorrectly? The support that's above the door frame isn't perfectly aligned and parallel either. Anyone ever come across this kind of issue? I've been waiting for so long for this to come in so this is super disappointing. [link] [comments] |
| Theoretically, is it possible to burn a pound of pure FAT in a day? Posted: 25 Sep 2020 11:15 PM PDT To give an objective example lets say a 200 pound male that is 5'10. If his BMR is around 2000. And lets say they fasted for 24 hours aka no caloric intake. And then he walked 30,000 steps (15 miles) usually equates to roughly 1,500 calories bringing the total caloric deficit to 3500 calories. Yes, I know this is extremely unhealthy, but just got me curious after watching the show "Alone" and how have days where they don't consume any food and walk numerous amounts of miles.

| How to keep track of isolation movements in gymnastics rings? Posted: 25 Sep 2020 03:22 PM PDT I'm doing Bobs Basic Hypertrophy routine from the Wiki and mostly do weighted calisthenics for all compound movements for easy tracking with the weight I have at home (~45lbs). My question is how can I keep track of isolation movements like face pulls, ring bicep curls, tricep extension, etc.. which can't really be loaded with external weight because I don't have adjustable dumbbells it's mostly plates. I know that for tricep extension I can just keep lowering the rings and my rings have numbers on them so that one is easy to keep tracking but for pulling movements it's better to keep walking forward or backward to lower/intensify the intensity of the exercise. Should I keep track of the intensity by jotting down something like "Bicep curl waist height 2 steps backward straight body" or can I just take isolation movements to failure? [link] [comments] |
