    Squats aren't working my glutes, and I'm too weak to do a glute bridge. I need different/easier glute exercises.

    Posted: 22 Nov 2020 11:50 PM PST

    I'm pretty sure my posterior chain is broken. When you do a bench press, you're supposed to be able to drive force through your heels to call on extra strength to push the weight up. I can't do that. There's a disconnect. Not to mention I have noticeable anterior pelvic tilt.

    I would do squats, but they don't hit my glutes. Probably due to the anterior pelvic tilt. Either my quads take over, or my back arches too far. Even if I was to watch myself in a mirror I can't keep my back from arching.

    I think this is because my glutes are too weak. But how do I strengthen them? Glute bridges? Again, my back arches. I try to tilt my pelvis posteriorly, but I can't even get off the ground like that. That's how weak my glutes are. It all creates this disconnect in my posterior chain. I can't do a sit-up or a glute bridge, it's like my upper body and lower body are separated.

    Need a Bodyweight Movement Program

    Posted: 23 Nov 2020 11:49 AM PST

    I'm looking for a daily movement style bodyweight program like MovNat, GMB and MoveMore etc.. Can anyone recommend a course or program or channel that is free or paid, for a daily 20-60 min indoor routine to help get through this winter? Something with a lot of mobility movement, some light weights or kettlebell and a pull-up bar. I'm not good at freestyling and need some structure. Thanks!

    Is my workout missing something?

    Posted: 23 Nov 2020 11:11 AM PST

    Every morning i do a quick 4 minute tabata with something different for each 20 seconds. My 8 different intervalls are in order: knee push ups, lunges, push ups, sit ups, wall sit, push ups again, ankle taps and plank. I am wondering if i am missing some important muscle to train and if my workout can be considered a "full body workout". Tabata is basically a 20 seconds max input and 10 second rest.

    L Sit to Handstand

    Posted: 23 Nov 2020 10:57 AM PST

    Hey guys, I'm currently practicing to get my L-Sit to Handstand on paralettes. My problem is bending my arms way too much which results in me not being able to push myself up again. My routine is practicing L Sit and trying to finally get the negative rep working. I can do a free handstand on paralettes for around 20 secs, L sit for only around 5 seconds and have decent shoulder strength i guess. Any ideas on how i can get this issue fixed or how to get it in general?

    How do you guys maintain Strength and Energy after a full day at work?

    Posted: 22 Nov 2020 11:33 PM PST

    I find myself tiring out extremely fast after a day of work in all my fitness endeavors. Compared to a day I work out without going to work, I struggle hitting my regular reps, or if I'm running/doing Cardio I find myself cramping 4x faster.

    I've tried drinking a lot of water (a whole gallon throughout my work day) before working out, and drinking a lot of water AND electrolyte drinks like Gatorade. Both helped, minimally. I'm going to try pedialyte and water next time, but perhaps I should try eating a big lunch?

    Do you guys have a similar problem? What works for you guys?

    Kensuki weightvest (225 LBS capactity) What would you do?

    Posted: 22 Nov 2020 06:06 PM PST

    As the title says, I have a 200$ plate loaded weight vest, Am wondering what body weight exercises you could theoretically do? I have 225 worth of plates to load it with.

    My bench is pretty far up there, but lately it causes quite a bit of shoulder discomfort even with good form, just inherently harsh on the shoulders, So im thinking about switching it for weighted pushups for a bit.

    Theoretically any exercise with pre conceived limits can be built to insane levels.

    My current use ideas are as follows.

    Weighted Pushups, Muscle ups and pullups.

    Lunges and airsquats.

    What body weight exercises do you deviously creative people think would have insane benefits to athletic performance, muscle mass, raw power, and skill oriented bodyweight strength.

    I have a unique opportunity to where I can take at home workouts to a truly next level, and I want to know how i can best use this wonderful birthday gift?

    TLDR, Got a weight vest with 225 load capacity, What bodyweight exercises can now be brutally effective for strength, size, athleticism, or skill oriented bodyweight strength.
