| Your favorite follow-along ab workout video? Posted: 03 Dec 2020 08:21 AM PST https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbjq9_NER_k. This is mine :) There are so many fun ab workout videos online and I'd love to crowdsource! [link] [comments] |
| When you think you have a new PR, but it turns out you don't know how to count Posted: 03 Dec 2020 09:20 AM PST So today I recorded a video of me achieving my new PR of 21, or so I thought. I was ready to make a progress log video with pumped up rap music with a rep counter like I usually do whenever I get a new mile stone like this. I added rep 1 in the video, rep 2, rep 3, and so on. After I finished rep 20, I was ready to add 21 in the video but then I realized this: there wasn't a fucking 21st rep. It turns out that I never learned how to fucking count in elementary school, because I was really convinced that I got that last rep. I will always look back at this very day as the day I learned a huge lesson: I don't know how to count, and to verify my PRs I need to watch a video because my real-time count is most likely off. I am sorry to my family, my friends, and anyone who has ever believed in me for this embarrassing mistake! Guess there's no new PR for me, just a tie for my PR. This is a reminder to fellow dumb asses in my dumb ass community to never trust your own count because us dumb asses get it wrong a lot (or at least I do) I will never forgive my self for this shit (until I fix it by ACTUALLY getting 21 reps, wish me good luck!) Who else has done this before? If so, what's your sob story on the topic of not getting a new PR? Fellow dumbassians, let's start a conversation in the comments on the topic of not knowing how to count and not getting PRs because of it. [link] [comments] |
| Sustainable one-arm pullup progress Posted: 03 Dec 2020 09:27 AM PST I've been doing several OAP programs, recently following Mathew Zlat's protocol. I usually have time to do it twice a week. However I notice thatif I have periods where I only can do it once a week or once every 10 days, the progress starts to fade very fast. This is different from nearly every other exercise I do. I can take 2 weeks off dips, squats, deadlifts and bench and still do pretty much the same weight and reps. Do you guys have any experience dealing with this? I guess worst case I just have to try to do it more, but it's weird how differently that one exercise behaves progression-wise. The program I do: Attempts at a half or full OAP depending on if I can do a half 2 sets of negatives to failure 3 sets of assisted OAP by holding on to a towel [link] [comments] |
| Temporary replacements for rows/incline rows? Posted: 03 Dec 2020 02:11 PM PST Don't have a place to do rows at the moment, and incline rows off my door are way to easy. What can I replace it with? [link] [comments] |

| How to improve strength to weight ratio? Posted: 03 Dec 2020 01:04 PM PST I'm 5'10 and 135 lbs, super light. I want to maintain a small physique, while at the same time, get stronger. I am unsure how to approach this goal- I've seen tons of people who are extremely fit and can do all the cool calisthenics moves, eg planche, iron cross, etcetera, but they look nothing like bodybuilders, you know? If my goal is to increase my actual strength to weight ratio, how should I setup my exercises, how often should I do it, and what kind of diet should I be looking to have? [link] [comments] |
| Other guys who started in the 4-6 month range, where you at now? Posted: 03 Dec 2020 03:37 PM PST Started 4 months ago, 6'0" 200 lbs Chin-ups: 1x1 to 3x8 How are you boys doing? [link] [comments] |
| TDEE question, need advice on recomp diet Posted: 03 Dec 2020 02:59 PM PST Going off the handy dandy (and notoriously inaccurate) online TDEE calculators...I used four, they were all fairly similar answers...I averaged just over 3,200 calories for TDEE. I'm 38M, 5'9", 193 lbs, I put in 17% bf, though I think that's probably a bit high estimate. But that's absolutely a wild ass guess. 3,200 just seems way high for me. I work an "active" job, I practice BJJ 3-4 times per week, strength and conditioning workouts 3 times per week. I am looking to go the whole "recomp" route...lower body fat (though not looking for single digits, not that much, looking for the 10-11% range) a bit while simultaneously increasing overall functional strength. I guess the emphasis would be on strength, if I had to pick one of the two. So are those numbers about right? Anywhere near right? Any advice would be a huge help, or links to applicable resources that maybe I hadn't found. [link] [comments] |
| How do you split your workout? Posted: 03 Dec 2020 02:42 PM PST TLDR: Do you have an alternative to push pull leg and how was/is your experience with it? Hello friends, I've been training for the last 6 months or so doing push pull leg from monday to saturday and resting on sundays, I've felt like sometimes where I didn't workout because I had to study for example on thurdsday, then on friday I would do the pull session so much better and I suppose that this is due to that some muscles are used on both groups, after watching this video about the best splits I'm thinking about doing upper lower 4 times/week so here is my question: do you do this split and how is it going? I will try it and let you know in a few months but I will like to hear from you, also I'd love if you show me more or less what do you do on the upper body days since I have some doubts about how to mix push and pull in one day, thank you all:) [link] [comments] |
| Hurrying in achieving skills reason for injuries? Posted: 02 Dec 2020 10:00 PM PST I have seen in this sub quite often that people injure themselves. Now, injury is a part of life. But in most of the cases, I find that injury occurs when the OP was trying to learn a skill too fast or too early. By too early/fast I mean that they in ambition to learn cool skills neglected their foundational training. Either they have weak shoulders or elbows or knees or whatever. They just didn't train long enough with basic push-pull-leg-core exercises. I may be wrong, but I believe there is no short path towards achieving anything. Moreover, when you have your basic strength correct the correct forms in most skills come almost automatically. E.g. you don't arch much during handstand if your core (not just abs) is strong enough. I think the internet and the influencer culture have made us believe in all fairytale things and we got disconnected with the reality that the basics take us a long way. Kindly share your opinions and experience regarding this matter. [link] [comments] |

| Fitness Challenge App - Cross Platform Posted: 03 Dec 2020 08:45 AM PST Hello. I've tried searching, but I'm not well versed in the way of the reddit. I'm looking for a crossplatform (iOS/Android) fitness challenge app, preferably one that does expended calories as well as steps. I have an iPhone/apple watch, the specific person i want to do this with has an android phone and a galaxy watch. We've tried Stridekick but she's having problems with it syncing correctly. It also doesn't do calorie expenditure. I really like the default iOS challenge app but there doesn't appear to be a cross platform version. Any recommendations? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 03 Dec 2020 10:35 AM PST I feel like I am way better at handstands when I warm up with a few sets of pull-ups. Even if I do some really tough sets. I feel like I have better mind-muscle connection and it's just overall much easier to hold a long handstand. Anyone else feel this way? [link] [comments] |
