| Posted: 16 Oct 2020 03:49 AM PDT Im a bit I'll at the moment and therefore am having a week without training. This is a struggle for me as I hate not being on the gain train 😂. Can anybody recommend any good calisthenics related books to keep me busy? I've already read overcoming gravity!!! Twice 😂 [link] [comments] |
| Archer Pushups vs. Ring Pushups - Which do you find harder and why? Posted: 16 Oct 2020 12:34 PM PDT I've got one spot on my routine for horizontal pushing but I can't decide which is the harder progression, so I can't figure out which one feels like an improvement over the other. I get the impression rings are better for stabilisation, archers better for the one-arm progression, but they're both about an equivalent level on the progression tree, so I should probably alternate between the two to target slightly different muscles.

| Resistance Bands with Planche Training Posted: 16 Oct 2020 10:09 AM PDT Hello! So I've been training the planche for almost two months now. Currently trying to work towards the advanced tuck (been doing the one leg tucked, one leg 90 degrees extended progression). I'm not in any rush to get the planche, as I acknowledge how long it will take. But I do want to be as efficient as possible with my progression. Should I incorporate resistance bands into my training? If so, which bands do you all recommend? Thanks! [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 16 Oct 2020 09:38 AM PDT I just want to share my experience after months of training on rings, at first, I just didn't lock out at all without realizing, then I made an effort to actually lockout my elbows.. but I've always noticed that fully locking out on the ring is way harder than it feels like it should be, but today, I found out what caused it ... it's basically because I'm grabbing onto the rings way too hard like i'm grabbing a barbell, when you're just supposed to more like "press" onto them without a death grip, and have the tension transfer to the elbows/triceps/biceps instead. I find that when I SQUEEZE the rings I just can't lockout easily, it's like that causes all the tension to be focused on the wrists/hands instead. And since this feels WAY better for locking out, can anyone else confirm whether this is "correct"?.. I feel like I missed the memo on how hard you should grab the rings, so I'm also hoping to share that experience. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 15 Oct 2020 08:36 PM PDT I only have access to rings currently for dips. So I'm working up to 1 min support hold, then rto, then ring dip negatives, then hopefully full ring dips. Does this seem like a decent strategy, or are full rom assisted dips (like feet on the floor) necessary for building the required strength? Thanks [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 16 Oct 2020 12:51 PM PDT I want to get into dynamic stretching. What are the benefits of it and what are the best dynamic strecthes? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 15 Oct 2020 04:33 PM PDT I recently started the RR and so far so good. I'm slowly working on my diet. Hoping to hit 42 in best shape of my life and I'm already about 15 lbs down. Here's the deal. When I was skinnier back in my early 20s, I had a pretty small ass. Well shaped but small. As I gained weight, I put like 80% in my belly and love handles and the other 20 went straight to my butt. I grew to love the extra cushion and it really helped fill out jeans. A few years ago, I started to work out and the first place that I lost the weight was my butt. It was demotivating ultimately every time that I saw it. I read that squats should help with that but it seems that squats work my thighs more than my butt. I am really riding a wave of resolution on changing my life and I'd love some suggestions on how I can work out without losing the backside. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 15 Oct 2020 07:11 PM PDT Hey party people, I've had a set of rings for ages. I'd use them from time to time and used to have a place to put them up outside. With COVID-19, I've lost my access to gym (they had rings). My current place was built around 1910 has lathe and plaster walls and maybe the ceiling. I poked around up there and I'm pretty sure it was built by a madman. Has anyone here installed their rings in an older home? How did you find the joists? My super stud finder doesn't work because... lathe and plaster What did you use to keep the ceiling from hitting you in the face? Love to hear your thoughts. Stay strong [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 16 Oct 2020 12:51 AM PDT I weigh 80kg and i tested my 1 rep max on the pullup not long ago and it is 20kg plate added (good form) i want to train in low reps as my main lift and i want to it with 3 reps, i dont know if i should be doing my 3rm every time or if i should do heavy triples, i find when i dont go to failure on low reps like this then i recover better and see better strength gains, ever since i started doing low rep sets i noticed my explosive strength has gone up alot which means it will help me achieve the muscle up and that is why im doing this.
My goal is to just increase my 1rm and 3rm which are complimentary to one another, my split is ppl and each body part i train 1 day is heavy weight low reps <8 and the other day is light weight time under tension etc >8 high reps, so therefore im not doing 3 reps too much as it can be fatiguing and demanding so i only do it once a week, and i noticed when i go to failure on all sets of <5 reps then i have trouble recovering, even though after a few days im not sore anymore i still feel fstigues and cant lift as much, that is why im doing this once a week and staying away from failure even though i go to failure on my higher rep workout, (maybe on the last set of 3 reps i should add weight and go to failure at my true 3rm??) Thank you so much for reading [link] [comments] |
