| Strength AND hypertrophy training in one workout? Posted: 28 Dec 2020 03:57 AM PST Hello, I was wondering if anyone would be able to make sure I'm going about building my workout plan the right way. My workout days are Monday, Wednesday and Friday and start off with 3/4 compound movements (bench press, squat, deadlift, overhead press, dips) for around 5 reps and 3 sets in order to gradually get stronger by doing multi-muscle exercises where a few muscles are worked at once, aiming to increase the weight by about 2.5kg per week. Also taking around 3-4 minutes inbetween sets for adequate rest. Then I'll do around 3-5 isolation exercises afterwards in order to build the size of my muscles for an aesthetically good looking physique; such as dumbbell tricep press, lateral raises, hammer curls, press ups, etc for 10 reps and 4 sets. Taking around 1 minute between sets. I'm looking to pass firefighter Medicals, so it made sense for me to try and build a workout which would help me get stronger whilst also improving my muscle endurance. I'm currently "bulking" in order help me more efficiently get stronger and bigger. I would be grateful for any advice or tips which might help me reach my goals! [link] [comments] |
| Calisthenics And Intermittent Fasting? Posted: 28 Dec 2020 10:05 AM PST Hello people, I wanted To ask for some advice and information. Im interested In intermittent fasting and im Training Calisthenics, Would Intermittent fasting slow down my skill learning or Effect any muscle growth?? At the moment i need to lose like 14pounds of fat because I bulked up,but I want my performance to stay Good In calisthenics, and maybe still build some muscle in my cut because im not gonna do a big calorie deficit.. Any advice? And should I start intermittent Fasting? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 28 Dec 2020 04:14 AM PST I got a pull up bar for christmas so I can finally start doing the RR, but I was wondering if there is any recommended stretching for after the workout. From my experience with workingout (which is limited mind you) I always feel better doing stretch after I workout. Are there any resources for stretches I can use, I think the proper term is static stretches? I'm very much new to this so, if anyone here has any advice on this its welcome. Also this isn't me asking if I can replace the pre workout stretchs I will be doing those as well. Thanks in advance for the help! [link] [comments] |

| [Looking for Advice] Calisthenics Cage Posted: 28 Dec 2020 09:23 AM PST A late happy Christmas to all of you. I recently moved into a bigger flat with my girlfriend and decided to update my training setup. I'm currently doing the RR with a pull up bar for the door frame and Dip bars. Now I have new possibilities. I have a room where I can put basically everything with the following dimension: 3,88m wide, 5m long and 2,65m high. Unfortunately the ceiling and the walls are brick-built, so I can't put bars directly on the wall. My idea was to buy a calisthenics cage where I can do pull ups and install rings. Maybe even practise muscle ups. [The Question] Could you recommend a calisthenics cage? Or would you suggest another setup for this space? I'm willing to invest a bit so I'm not looking for the cheapest solution. Thank you guys and have a great day. [link] [comments] |
| Why do high reps for isolation movements? Posted: 28 Dec 2020 08:41 AM PST I've always heard that the ideal range for hypertrophy is 6-12 reps. How come when it comes to isolation, nearly everyone is recommending 12+ reps? Doesn't that just build endurance? What am I missing here? [link] [comments] |
| Do you guys follow a training program or wing it? Posted: 28 Dec 2020 03:23 AM PST If so, do you know of any good, free training programs that I can look up for women? [link] [comments] |
| Recommend an online coaching plan for lean bulking please Posted: 28 Dec 2020 08:58 AM PST I've tried Fraserwilsonfit and Elliotbfit plans some time ago. Anything better out there? I'll be training at home mainly. I have dumbbells, a bench, treadmill and some other equipment. Can't really commit if I don't have a workout plan to follow. Any good experience with online coaching?

| Posted: 28 Dec 2020 10:44 AM PST Hey guys, I started training at home 5 days ago and I'm wondering if regular push ups and diamond push ups are enough for shoulders to growth, what do you think ? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 28 Dec 2020 11:21 AM PST Hey bodyweightfitness, I'm a 24F, 5'5, 138lbs as of this morning. I've been doing the recommended routine for 8ish months and very consistently for the past 4 months. My biggest accomplishment during that time is going from not being able to do real pushups to being able to do pushups with good form. My question is how can you tell if you're building muscle or fat? I hit my highest weight ever this week which makes me think I'm probably gaining a considerable amount of fat with muscle. I'm up about 10lbs from the start of last year. That being said, my arms, shoulders, and back look toned and a lot bigger, and sometimes I think I see some ab definition. I'm usually not concerned about weight but it felt different to hit a new maximum. How do you all measure your progress and feel about weight gain related to working out? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 28 Dec 2020 10:09 AM PST Is there an RR schedule where it's split into upper and lower days? I'm trying to figure out which exercises to pair up and when to time them. TIA! [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 28 Dec 2020 09:47 AM PST Are there any old wrestlers on here that remember the workout developed by the Mayor Daley Youth Foundation Wrestling Club? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 28 Dec 2020 07:30 AM PST I cant feel any stress coming from my abdomen when I do planks. I used to feel it though,and they used to be very effective for me,but now,if I do a plank,the only muscles that get tired are my biceps and some on my shoulders from the position. Should I try increasing the time i do these planks for? I must admit its been a while since I started and now I'm really developed,so it could just be that I have to increase the difficulty and challenge of excercises. [link] [comments] |
| After watching plenty of fitness youtube videos, that's what I came up with... Posted: 28 Dec 2020 11:18 AM PST My perfect routine for the core (tailored for me): Here is the routine, what should I do differently? Reverse crunch Flutter kicks abs Bicycle crunch Plank roll Seated knee tucks Standing oblique crunch - Lrft & Right Sprinter abs Windshield wiper Military plank V scissors kicks Hips lift Superman hold Flutter kicks - glutes [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 28 Dec 2020 05:18 AM PST For the last three months, I've been incorporating vertical pressing exercises in my routine. I can do about 35 pushups and 15 dips in a row. But whenever, I try dips on rings, it just reminds me how weak I actually am. I know that most of it has do with the instability component on the tings, but still I can hardly even half-ass 5 dips on the rings. I have also noticed that my lockout isn't straight on the rings either. How do I breakthrough this plateau? Should I stick to the regular dips? Or should I incorporate more drills for this weakness itself? [link] [comments] |
| What do you think about these ab exercises and which is the most effective for abs? Posted: 28 Dec 2020 03:12 AM PST https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6PhNnlb-14&t=180s 1- W raises 2- Black widow knee slides 3- Butterfly situp 4- Seated corkscrew 5- Levitation Crunch 6- Sit up elbow thrusts [link] [comments] |
| Pavel Fighter Pull-up, rest time and progression Posted: 28 Dec 2020 09:56 AM PST So as I understand it, this is a grease the groove program with rest times in between sets lasting as much as hours. However I wondered, if you were to take this much time in between sets, wouldn't it make more sense to have your reps done close to something like sets across? (e.g. 5x5). I don't understand why you would want to do a decreasing pyramid if you spread out your sets evenly during the entire day. I'd think that you'd have enough in the tank to do another set at your highest(or slightly lower)rep count or close to it for all remaining sets in the day. [link] [comments] |
| Just had a short but killer workout - thought u guys might want to know about it lol Posted: 28 Dec 2020 09:22 AM PST Did 3 sets of 5 (each side) box pistol squats down to an underknee-high chair with two 25 lb. dumbbells. About 3 minutes rest btween sets. Followed by 3 sets of 5 chin ups with 30 lbs. on a dip belt. Then 3 sets of 5 (each side) of Archer Push ups. The workout lasted only like 30 minutes and I feel like I hit every major muscle group! comment me your thoughts! [link] [comments] |

| What home equipment do you guys use for the RRR? Posted: 28 Dec 2020 02:57 AM PST We have been following the Reddit Recommend Routine for 2 months now with our own home equipment (skip to near the end of the video) We are noticeably getting stronger in our upper body, but feel like we are not progressing as much in our lower body e.g Hamstrings. So we would like to know what home equipment you guys use and more specifically for doing hinge progressions like Nordic Curls [link] [comments] |
| How to Best Identify Form/Posture Limitations Posted: 27 Dec 2020 07:43 PM PST I tried posting is r/posture but didn't get a response, I can try again if need be. I've been doing the RR for about 6 months and I think I'm not making as much progress as I should be when it comes to pull ups. I went from 2 pull ups to about 6 pull ups, an improvement but not great. I do have terrible shoulder extension and awful thoracic rotation, especially when rotating to the left. I attached some images of a few exercises as well as a posture pose. I'm trying to figure out if I have rounded shoulders, swayback, kyphotic lordotic or something else. There seems to be a variety of things that could be it and I'm trying to figure out what type of corrective routine I need to look for. Sorry if it sounds frantic, I just feel like I've been working out for a while now while very little to show of it. Any suggestions are welcomed and any help is needed. UPDATE: Updated the imgur link. Sorry I had the wrong one pasted in there. [link] [comments] |
