| Hanging Knee Raises Vs Dead Bugs Posted: 09 Oct 2020 07:19 AM PDT Hi all, I'm working through the RR and for my ab work I've been doing hanging knee raises, my core is pretty weak and I have bad APT from my desk bound office job. I'm stretching to help my APT and do reverse hypers whenever I can to help with my hamstring strength. That said I still feel like my core is weak and that the hanging knee raises 3x per week isn't doing much - should I change this to dead bugs as these feel like a killer whenever I have tried them. Also, should I do them everyday or still have rest days? Thanks [link] [comments] |
| Advice on starting Recommended Routine Posted: 09 Oct 2020 07:41 AM PDT Hi everyone, This is my first post here, so apologies if it's a bit redundant, but i was hoping to get an opinion on the exercises i've selected to begin the Recommended Routine. I haven't trained for a good few years so am treating this as almost a beginner. I also just want to make sure i've understood the information correctly as it's a lot to take in! :) Below is my planned routine. I've selected the exercises based on my own capabilities as well as what equipment i have available: Warm-up: Dynamic Stretches (5-10min) 5-10 Yuri's Shoulder Band Warmup Strength work (40-60 minutes) First Pair Second Pair Third Pair Core Triplet How does this look? Is there anything you'd advise switching out or would this generally be considered a good place to start? Obviously i'll increase the progression difficulty as i hit max reps for each exercise :) Thanks in advance! EDIT: Just checked this post on mobile and the formatting is awful, so sorry for anyone viewing it on their phone! [link] [comments] |
| Is the recommended routine a replacement for lifting? Posted: 09 Oct 2020 09:43 AM PDT I've been lifting for 2+ years, but anxious to go back because of Covid. During lockdown I've been cutting using a modified version of PHUL that I can do at home with an EZ curl bar. Now I'm starting my next bulk, I'm looking for the best hypertrophy routine that can be done at home. Is the recommended routine a good solution for that? I can supplement with bicep curls etc if necessary, but hesitant to start modifying any routines. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 09 Oct 2020 07:16 AM PDT Thinking about changing my workout right now its: Chest shoulders and Triceps Back and Biceps Legs and Abs Abs and core Rest Repeat Would this be more effective?: Full body workout Rest Full body workout Rest Full body workout Rest Full body workout Repeat [link] [comments] |
| improving hip mobillity and strength? Posted: 08 Oct 2020 02:11 PM PDT i think my squats are bad, and i am working on getting the pistol squats forever but it seems like i am not flexible enough, its hard for me to keep a straight back so my lower back hurts and my ankles sometimes are not strong enough to support the movement. currently my leg routine consists of: quads dominant: deep step ups 3 x 7-10GMB pistol squat progression hams: nordic ham curls ( fuck i love them) 3 x 5 ( each workout i try to go lower) so my question is, will it be wise to stop with my shitty squats and deep step ups and change to this or this until i see results? i also feel my lack of strength and mobillity while attempting L sits. i have also started to do every morning this routine by antranik [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 09 Oct 2020 08:55 AM PDT Hello guys I have a Quick question related to Planche. So I can do Advanced tuck planche for 10 seconds. Back I used to focus on only Straddle but didn't achieve anything I cant really feel any pressure on shoulders so I'm thinking if the Straddle planche is mandatory for Planche? Can't justI skip it and focus on Planche lean holds and Advanced tuck and slowly pull by legs backwards? Or Even Focus on Lotus Planche? here is the current planche vid do help me out Salvy322 [link] [comments] |
| Despite getting stronger at ring chest exercises, my bench press has gotten worse Posted: 09 Oct 2020 06:20 AM PDT Before coronavirus took over the world my bench press was 80kg x 6. Since March I have been using rings and have continued to get stronger over the months. However, I recently tried the bench again for the first time in 6 months. I assumed my strength gained from using rings would allow me to bench more than when I started, but I was unable to get close to my best. Why is it that my gains through callisthenics have not carried over to the bench Press? [link] [comments] |
| I can’t activate my right rhomboids even without any weight. Any tips on how to turn it on? Posted: 09 Oct 2020 09:01 AM PDT I have an hypermobility in the spine, so my physio recommended me to reinforce my rhomboids because they are too weak. The issue is that I can't even find a way to contract my right rhomboids. If I do exercise with weights then it is other muscles taking over. I am usually focusing on my scapula and thinking inward and downward to activate it, but that does not work for the right rhomboids. Any ideas on how to "find" it? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 09 Oct 2020 09:32 AM PDT I was wondering if there are any follow along YouTube videos or something similar I can follow along with? I find it easier to do a routine when I'm watching videos like that. [link] [comments] |
| How can i workout without turning my urine pink? Posted: 09 Oct 2020 10:50 AM PDT I have started doing body weight workout, i was almost hitting the 2nd month but when the days that my urine turn pink I stopped. I know that the body workout caused my urine to turn pink because when i stopped working out the pink pee would stop and i tried it twice. And i really wanna do workout again but im afraid to get my urine turn pink (pink means there is blood mixed in the urine) again, any advice? [link] [comments] |
| Weekly minimum to achieve change Posted: 08 Oct 2020 11:15 PM PDT Ever since the onset of the pandemic I've been struggling to maintain my old habits. This was fine for the first few months but now it's becoming more and more of a burden. What is the weekly minimum in exercises, sets, and reps, to achieve noticeable changes both physically and psychologically. I just want to gain my groove back by hitting a weekly minimum. Thank you for any suggestions in advance. [link] [comments] |
| How do you tell if you have enough shoulder mobility for dips? Posted: 09 Oct 2020 11:41 AM PDT I cant exacly tell what it looks/feels like when you round your shoulders when doing dips so I dont know if my shoulders are rounding. Does anyone know a good way to tell if you have enough mobility for dips, or can elaborate a bit more on what too look out for in your shoulders when doing dips. Thanks in advance.

| Posted: 09 Oct 2020 11:38 AM PDT can someone tell me if protein helps you gain or lose weight? cause I'd see at both ends people are like "protein helped me gain weight here and here" or "protein helped me lose weight"... Also, I don't get how some people can gain weight in some places and lose it in others? For example, I'd see those weights loss videos and someone will be chubbier but then they'd get a flat stomach but somehow have glutes or vice versa where they're skinnier and they gain weight but it only goes to glutes nowhere else like their stomach or arms or anything...why?

| When to start training Frontlever Posted: 09 Oct 2020 11:20 AM PDT I've been training calisthenics for awhile now and am wondering if you all think I'm ready to start training for more advanced skills (frontlever in particular). I recently tested my weighted pull-up 1rm and am at about 50% of my Bw. 85lbs pull-up 1rm, I weigh about 175lbs. Should I start focusing on frontlever progressions, or continue progressing with my weighted pull-ups? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 09 Oct 2020 11:12 AM PDT Basically, it is strong lift with accessories, but still, as I am not a novice but kinda intermediate, want you to see my routine and tell me, should I cut something? or add something? maybe I am missing something important, so here it goes: A: B: as usual, it will be ABA BAB and + I'm thinking of changing it up every two weeks, for 2 weeks to do high-intensity low volume and for another 2 weeks thinking of doing medium intensity medium volume Any recommendation or explaining why something should be or not to be here will be helpful as i want to stick with it for a long time, also, accessories are chosen for my taste which i am enjoying the most.

| Tips to better organize my bulking diet? Posted: 09 Oct 2020 10:53 AM PDT I'm not really seeing the results I want from going ot the gym. I workout according to my program but I really struggle to take in enough calories (which according to calorie calculators is about 2800cal to gain weight). I would like to have a bigger variety of meals so I won't have to eat the same thing every single day. Not only because It's harder to keep to your diet this way, but it's also not very healthy to have little variety in your food. So far the only "plan" I can think of is oats with peanut butter or egg omlete for breakfast, protein powder with water for a snack, chicken breast with rice, maybe some nuts for another snack and some cottage cheese for dinner. I'm also not even sure if that is enough calories, because when I count it I'm always like 500 calories short. And that's just a plan for one day. It would be great to have a different plan for at least 3-4 days. Perhaps you have any suggestions on how I could better organize my diet? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 09 Oct 2020 10:19 AM PDT I'm 14 years old and about 130 pounds and 6 feet and I really feel like I'm getting stronger and I've been able to increase my weight for dumbbells and barbell but I am not gaining weight and not getting bigger in general am I doing something wrong?

| Posted: 09 Oct 2020 10:11 AM PDT Hello. I started a body weight routine recently. I'm able to follow most exercises, however there are certain exercises which involve using doorways to do pull ups and rows. I can't do those because I'm on the heavy side and I don't want to break anything, especially since the house we're living in is 10+ years old now so things might not be able to bear 73 kgs. What are some alternatives I can do for back and biceps that do not involve purchasing a pull up bar? [link] [comments] |

| At home pull-up equipment recommendations Posted: 09 Oct 2020 08:47 AM PDT What do you guys use for doing pull-ups at home? I have a small apartment, ideally I'd like a wall mounted pull-up bar I can mount in my walk-in closet so it stays out of sight. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 09 Oct 2020 12:18 AM PDT Was just curious as to how many people on here use periodisation in their training. If so, what kind of periodisation, and has it been effective for you? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 08 Oct 2020 05:43 PM PDT Hey fellow bwf members, I've started weighted pullups a while ago and it's been going good until recently. I was able to increase from 15lbs to 30lbs in weighted pullups, even tho its been slow. All this time I was only able to do 11-13 pullups with clean form bodyweight. But for the last 3 months, I've been stuck on 30 lbs for 4 reps. My training usually consists of weighted pullups for 5-8 sets of 3-5 reps depending on how much reps I get each set, twice a week, along with some rowing work once a week. Is my progress so slow and plateauing because I'm not working on my endurance? Or is it because my training isn't optimal. I should also say that my weight right now is 145 lbs and it was pretty constant since I started with the 30 lbs, and I'm 5'11" if that helps. Any help would be soo much appreciated, thankssss. Edit: I train back twice a week, with pullups as the main movement, then proceeding with australian pullups and finishing off with some deep scapular pulls. [link] [comments] |
