Hey guys, I'm wondering on how to increase my max weighted pull up. My current 1 rep max pull up is 45KG (99 IBS). Any ideas on how to increase it? Any example strength or hypertrophy sets that you've done in the past or Your own weighted pull up experience? Thanks 🙏 [link] [comments] |
| Push up strength: what are the practical uses of the strength we acquire from training with pushups? Posted: 01 Nov 2020 06:27 PM PST Yes I know your workout shouldn't be just pushups. I know that it's limited and possibly harmful. That's not what I'm asking. I'm asking, the strength you get from doing pushups. What everyday (or even not so everyday) things will that help you with?

| Homemade Calisthenics Park (Sketches) Posted: 02 Nov 2020 04:49 AM PST Hey folks, hope you are all safe, keeping well and having a nice day. I was going through some old hard drive backups today and found some drawings of a callisthenics-park set up for my garden that I made a few years ago using Sketchup. None of the models are to scale/use actual measurements - I pretty much just did it by eye. I was trying to see how many bang-for-your-buck exercises/features you could pack into the smallest space possible. There was also a board that could attach to the low down bars to create an incline (angle of your choice) for doing crunches, a box for doing calf-raises and reaching the bars if shorter, and - in a later sketch which I can't find - the posts where the salmon ladder are, extended up even higher and had a bar across the top that you could attach rings to. If these give anyone else ideas, that is cool and if you can suggest improvements, I would really appreciate the input! [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 02 Nov 2020 09:19 AM PST I reached 3x10 at push ups, there are legit pushups going all the way down, and more, since i use push up handles, i'm also using my triceps a lot cause of the neutral grip, but i collapse every time i bring the handles together (or try a diamond push up). Should i keep going until i get sets of 15-20 or keep trying to do a diamond push up? I'm also very tired when doing the push ups because i treat them as an acessory to Overhead Press, and i do them after heavy OHPs. I want to finally be able to do weighted dips but i'm too weak to even do a single bodyweight one, so i guessed the first step would be getting very good at push ups. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 02 Nov 2020 10:37 AM PST For those who don't know, the superman hold is an exercise in which you lay down on your stomach, attempting to raise both your arms and your legs as high off of the ground as you can, and holding it for time. On every lower body day, I do this exercise, as I feel it's extremely effective for your lower back and hamstrings. What do you guys think about the Superman hold? [link] [comments] |
| General progression for pull ups Posted: 02 Nov 2020 09:28 AM PST In a few days I will receive a doorframe pull up bar, and it is elaborated enough for other exercises, but I never praticed pull ups before, any advices? [link] [comments] |
| Setting goals: At what point did you begin training for FL, BL, planche, human flag, etc? Posted: 02 Nov 2020 07:53 AM PST Hey all! How long into your BWF journey did you start training higher level skills/strength movements like front lever, back lever, planche, human flag, etc? Also, is there a generally accepted pre-requisite strength (either in reps of a movement or a movement itself) you'd suggest? Anything to help set future goals would be appreciated!

| Posted: 02 Nov 2020 09:41 AM PST I absolutely love reading these threads when they come up and hadn't seen one in a while so thought I'd start one. After a year of doing push-up, dip, squat, and pull-up variations with no added weight I was able to do a 265 bench, 300 squat, 200 overhead press, and 220lb rows for 5x5 (all the others are 3 rep maxes). What have you guys been able to do? For comparison I am 6'2 and 220. [link] [comments] |
| Indoor gymnastic ring mounting Posted: 01 Nov 2020 12:16 PM PST I just moved into a new apartment and found out that the level pullup bar I used before doesn't fit the door frame since it is recessed into the wall. Drilling into the ceiling is also no option since it's plasterboard with ceiling mounted heating installed right above it. What are my best options for using rings? I know i can use the door anchor that came with them for some exercises, but not all of them. Edit: Does anyone have experience with those screw in pull up bars coupled with rings? The door frame is sturdy but I don't know if I can trust those things when coupled with rings. Edit 2: Doorframe Edit 3: I talked to the worker. There is no point in the ceiling that could support a load. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 01 Nov 2020 04:17 PM PST I was wondering this as I'm getting into higher reps. And I made a post a while ago about anxiety of high numbers. I'm also making quality over quantity. But I need others input. [link] [comments] |
| How do y'all split up your skills and strength training? Posted: 02 Nov 2020 10:36 AM PST Title pretty much sais it all, but just to clarify, do y'all split skills and strength training into seperate days, or do you do a bit of both every time you workout? To satisfy the people who wanna ask stupid questions: By strength training, I'm talking about generic strengthening exercises like push ups and pull ups and squats and so on. By skills, I mean any movement that is currently out of your grasp that you are currently trying to learn. More specifically, I'm talking things like planche and L sit and front lever, etc. Also, where do you fit in things like pelican push ups, RTO push ups, or any other movement that is not necessarily a "skill" as defined above, but that you are intent on learning and adding to your routine?

| Move programme - why is there no glute stretch? Posted: 01 Nov 2020 12:39 PM PST A few years back I started on the Move programme. After a summer of training I ended up at the physio with some hip pain. My physio informed me that as I had been doing only abductor (ie. inner hip) stretching work (Ido's squat routine) and neglecting glute stretches, I was getting this pain. I know I should've posted about this sooner, my bad. I think a glute stretch be added to the mobility/stretching section in the Move programme. Peace x [link] [comments] |
| thoughts on this workout routine? Posted: 02 Nov 2020 09:41 AM PST this is the routine i enjoy the most since i hit all the muscle groups 3x a week while there are no specific leg days but i wanna know if its optimal for muscle growth and looking for some feedback and tips as well📷 push/pull split 6x a week home workout with dumbbells and gymnastic rings(essentially a 3 day full body split into 6 days) 4-5 sets each exercise push day weighted pullups 4 sets of 6-8 reps push day feet elevated pushup plus(doubles as a warmup) 4 sets of 12 reps background on me and my goals goals: [link] [comments] |
| 36m, 6’4”, 180lb. Punching bag help? Posted: 02 Nov 2020 06:50 AM PST So, I've lost a bunch of weight over the last 8-10 months and I need to gain. BUT, I don't want to pump weights because of my joints. I was thinking of getting into gymnast rings and punching bag as a way to workout over the winter(in Canada). Is it possible to gain any muscle mass doing these? Any suggestions, tips or routines would be very helpful for my adhd, two kids and school full time. Thank You!!!! [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 01 Nov 2020 08:05 PM PST I have been training with calisthenics for around 8 months. In that time I have been working on my strength. I now feel like I am ready to start training for skills and decided to start with the handstand and L sit first. Should I wait until I can hold a handstand and L sit for ~30 seconds until I start with the tucked planche? Or is it okay to train the tucked planche along with the handstand and L sit?

| Posted: 02 Nov 2020 01:53 AM PST In my opinion body weight training is more practical in terms of survival and self-defense than lifting weights. Sure, you can benchpress 500 pounds, but it's more likely in a survival situation that you would need to pull yourself onto a ledge. Even then, I was watching Ultimate Beastmaster and it was interesting to see the athletes struggling to pull themselves onto a ledge, even though five minutes earlier they were doing one armed pull ups with a bar. Maybe the angle of the ledge changes the exercise enough to activate weaker muscles. Kind of like if you have a high IQ then you are good at doing IQ tests, not necessarily smart. Anyone here putting specific focus on "survival" training? [link] [comments] |
| Greasing The Groove With The Front Lever? Posted: 01 Nov 2020 01:28 PM PST How can I grease the groove if i want to do a full front lever. (I can currently hold a perfect form advanced tuck and a 5+ sec straddle) And is it effective/worth to do the grease the groove to do a front lever? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 01 Nov 2020 05:23 PM PST I'm getting over a bit of a leg injury and found my hamstrings have weakened quite a bit. Does anybody have any tips for simple and effective workouts I can do at home to improve them? Thanks, in advance. [link] [comments] |
| Problem with wide pelvis what can I do? Posted: 01 Nov 2020 09:43 PM PST I have a naturally wide pelvis not very appealing for a male, what can I do to improve this area? Picture in profile. Thanks [link] [comments] |
| Can I do Grease The Groove when I can only perfom max 3 pull ups? Posted: 01 Nov 2020 12:55 PM PST Should I do 1 or 2 pull ups each set? And how many times a day? Will I get stronger? [link] [comments] |
