| Thank you so much to this sub. Posted: 23 Oct 2020 11:43 AM PDT Thank you so much for all the resources and stories! I had hip surgery when I was 14 (I am 29F) and was told by my doctor I would never had full mobility and strength in my hip. Just about a year ago I started to workout regularly and few months ago I started following this sub and working with the Caliverse app and using advice and other tips on here. I haven't lost much weight but I can now completely move my hip with no pain, I can work (I work as a bartender and server) 10 hour shifts and not come home in immense pain! I haven't had so many painless days since I was a kid. You guys are the tits! Thanks for helping this chonky girl get stronger and truly begin my healing journey P.S. My doctor said recently I will no longer need another surgery! [link] [comments] |
| One arm pushup progression after archer pushups? Posted: 23 Oct 2020 05:49 AM PDT I recently managed to do 4 sets of 12 archer push ups (kinda wobbly on the last set but close enough i guess?) but a one arm push up still seems so far away. Everywhere i read online people say to do archer pushups first but now that i can do them, what's next? Incline one arm pushup maybe? Decline archers? [link] [comments] |
| Front Lever Pullups vs. Back Lever Pullups Difficulty Posted: 23 Oct 2020 10:56 AM PDT (35 yrs old, 190 lbs/86 kg, male, training calisthenics for 3 years) I've been working pretty consistently on front lever and back lever pullups in the same workout. I've seen great progress w/ FL pullups but not so much w/ back lever pullups. Anyone have a preferred progression for back lever pullups? Here is my front lever workout: [link] [comments] |
| How to know what my body actually looks like. Posted: 23 Oct 2020 10:07 AM PDT Everytime I look in the mirror, I look pretty big. Like I have a good frame. But when I take a pic, my body looks so shitty. Like it looks like I have a really bad frame and I basically look really skinny. How can I determine how I actually look to other people?

| Talking stopwatch for isometrics Posted: 22 Oct 2020 11:57 AM PDT This is not my video or channel, but i have been using this on a daily basis and it helps me massively in my isometric holds sets. Its basically counting the seconds out loud while you can focus on your hold without needing to count Whats shocking to me is how hard it was for me to find something like that [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 23 Oct 2020 08:38 AM PDT I have an old pull-up bar which I would like to remove that's been in a door frame for close to 20 years. I really don't know the first place to start (it was installed when I was a child), and I am a little cautious as it's likely essentially become seized on given that it's been there so long. Anyone know what to do? Thanks! [link] [comments] |
| Right shoulder bone is popping out more than the left, is this normal ? Posted: 23 Oct 2020 11:53 AM PDT I've been having aches in that area but I just noticed the "ball" like bone is protruding a lot more in the right side. I'm also right handed. Is this normal ? I haven't been working out [link] [comments] |
| People over 200 lbs, what do you eat to gain and or maintain muscle? Posted: 23 Oct 2020 11:39 AM PDT As a heavyweight myself, I'm trying to get an idea of how to eat to achieve my goals. I've read the FAQS (what a great resource), but I'm looking for personal examples if anyone has any (what do you eat on a daily basis?) [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 23 Oct 2020 08:59 AM PDT Other than pullups, chinups, dips, knee and leg raises, and inverted rows, what else can one perform on a power tower? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 23 Oct 2020 10:48 AM PDT I do this routine about 4-5 times a week. Jump rope 6 rounds 60 skips each round full speed 30 second rest after each round Stretch 5 round circuit 10 wide grip pull ups 20 push ups 20 squats 1:30 min rest after each round My goal is to lose fat and tone up. I'm 6'4" around 215-220 lbs (I look long and lean) My diet is pretty clean (no processed foods or sugary drinks). I could always eat more protein, more veggies, and cut back on the carbs. Any advice on how to make my routine better for my goal would be appreciated. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 23 Oct 2020 06:12 AM PDT i've been training bodyweight for awhile now and been doing some weighted dips recently. i only plan to stick to the basics and not learn all those calisthenics fancy moves. But i was just wondering, can i still build a physique thats swole af with just the basic exercises but weighted ? and if so, what split should i do ? [link] [comments] |
| Advice for where to buy a good stationary bike for a decent price? Posted: 23 Oct 2020 09:07 AM PDT My girlfriend wants a stationary bike for the holidays but I'm not sure where to look to find a good one for a decent price. Most from what I can find either dont have great reviews or the maximum weight they can handle is too low. She wants one the standing ones like for spin classes and that can handle 250-300 lbs. Can anyone recommend a brand that's affordable (200-300$ range) and reliable? Edit: forgot to mention I'm in canada in case it matters! [link] [comments] |
| Front lever pulls feeling it in shoulders? Posted: 23 Oct 2020 12:05 PM PDT Recently started doing front lever pulls in my workout. When I try to pull, I feel it alot in my shoulders and less on my lats/back muscles. Is this normal or am I doing it wrong? Or does it just mean I'm lacking strength in the shoulder department? I've tried really focusing and pulling with my back, trying to get that mind-muscle connection but Ill always end up feeling it in the shoulders. I always keep my elbows straight if this helps.

| Posted: 23 Oct 2020 11:32 AM PDT Recently started karate (3-4 weeks) looking for a short workout I can do at home in morning or after work to compliment my training as well. I'm considering a push-up, squat, and sit-up plan to be able to do more and easier in the dojo during warmups and what not. Is that kind of plan a good short work out idea is my question. My only concern is I don't know if it'll be total body. Thanks In advance for any/all responses. [link] [comments] |
| How Good is 9 pull-ups consistently with strict form for a 12 year old? Posted: 23 Oct 2020 10:40 AM PDT So the most pull-ups I have ever done In one set is 11 but I can manage to do around 9 pull-ups consistently. My form is always strict and I don't really kip when doing repetitions. I know my hight and weight play a vital factor on how much repetitions I can do (I am quite tall for my age measuring at about 165cm and weighing 50kg). So reddit, how good do you think this is? :) [link] [comments] |
| Is there a good beginners program out there for bw fitness, comparable to 5x5? Posted: 23 Oct 2020 09:19 AM PDT I just stopped doing StrongLifts 5x5 and while I've decided to focus on bw fitness I really enjoyed it, due to the fact it was a incredibly detailed program for free. Is there anything comparable (free, very detailed) program-wise for bodyweight fitness? [link] [comments] |
| Huge Regression over the past month - what might be the problem? Posted: 22 Oct 2020 07:07 PM PDT 5 weeks ago I had tied my Planche PR at 3.5 seconds (I could straddle Planche for 8-9 seconds) also had a 2 second iron cross and my best FL at ~26 seconds.... fast forward to today I can't do squat, not even straddle Planche?? My FL also regressed to 20 seconds. I'm trying to figure out how it all went sideways... just an FYI I took a rest week to attempt the Planche and cross and go for max so I don't think fatigue is the problem. The only major changes I've had was that I moved to NYC (started walking a ton more, mostly on the weekends) and had to shorten my workouts by about 10 minutes due to work scheduling. So I would understand a bit of regression with all the changes but it's like if I had stopped training these past 5 weeks, which I haven't, instead I actually got a weighted vest to add more resistance to my workouts so I can't tell what the problem might be... could it possibly just be a really bad 'off day' if that even exists? Also in terms of eating it's been mostly the same over the past 5 weeks. Any suggestions on what might be the problem, or some who has had a similar situation pls advise! [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 23 Oct 2020 08:03 AM PDT I am able to to around 18 pull-ups from rest, and I can also do pretty explosive ones (bringing the bar to just below my chest). However, I can't seem to master the muscle up... Does anyone have any advice on the transition phase? Thanks!! :D [link] [comments] |
| Chest strength for back lever? Posted: 22 Oct 2020 06:16 PM PDT I was wondering what kind of chest strength is necessary to hold a full back lever? (in terms of bench press or something) I weigh 155 and bench a little over 200 but cant quite get a back lever. My lower back is p strong (dead 400 & reverse dragon flags are p easy) so im p sure thats not the issue. [link] [comments] |
| Best way to track weightlifting? Posted: 22 Oct 2020 05:19 PM PDT I'm wondering what you guys think is the best way to track how much you are lifting so you know how much you need to lift your next routine in order to maximize muscle gain. Thanks! [link] [comments] |
