| Is your lower back really supposed to round during pistols? Posted: 20 Jan 2021 04:12 AM PST Noticed when I videod myself for the first time doing pistol squats that my lower back rounds as I go lower. Although, based on other people's videos, their lower back also seems to round. Was wondering is this normal? And how can I improve my mobility to lessen it ? [link] [comments] |
| Time-Based Burpees vs Rep-Based Burpees Posted: 20 Jan 2021 03:31 AM PST What would be more beneficial in burning fat, building strength, building endurance, etc.? For example, 10 minutes of burpees vs 100 burpees [link] [comments] |
| Moved into a new flat, no load baring walls to put pull-up bar in... suggestions? Posted: 20 Jan 2021 04:36 AM PST My old flat had very sturdy walls I could mount my pull-up bar between. I used to hang Olympic Rings from there too and do all my workouts there which was great. The new place isn't able to support the weight sadly, door frames are very brittle. Any suggestions on new ways to workout? I can't do inverted rows either because there's no space for chairs in here... [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 20 Jan 2021 02:02 AM PST Hello guys, good day everyone. I am writing this message translating it in translation, sorry for the complexity. I am a 132 lbs 5.10 ft teenager at 15 years old. I was only allowed to work with body weight by the doctor. That's why the calisthenics branch came to my mind. I want to add muscle mass to my body and do cool movements. Like planche or something. I am waiting for your advice Max: 25 push up, 3-4 good form pull up, 8 10 dips i guess, 40 50 squats. [link] [comments] |
| 342 reps L-Seat straddle press to handstand, how is it possible? Posted: 20 Jan 2021 10:45 AM PST So this girl Stefanie Millinger, whom you might have already seen in some short clips, broke a world record last year. It just seems inconceivable for me to be able to put out over 300 Handstand presses in under 1 hour, many of us work for quite some time to even reach the strength, flexibility and balance required for even 1! What do you think of this feat? How did she manipulate her technique to pump out those numbers? How many base strength is required for pushing into three digits? And how incredible is it not losing the balance for such a long period? [link] [comments] |
| 20 min workout. No equipment. For busy people! Posted: 20 Jan 2021 10:58 AM PST Hey guys. New here. I have a busy job and don't have much time to do much training in between anymore. Is it realistic to train each muscle group within 20 minutes? What about warming up? Injuries is big no no. My focus in primary on staying fit and hypertrophy and I have 20 minutes a day, 5 times a week. I have no equipment at home. Much appreciated. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 20 Jan 2021 10:31 AM PST Hello everyone, I have a question. I've been doing push-ups by going chest to the floor since the beginning because I was focusing on form over quantity and my max like that now is around 35-36. I always wondered how do people get to a number like 60, 80 or 100 for example, but when I watched the videos every single person was doing it only until arms were parallel to the floor. I never did them like that or even thinked about doing them like that because I was always focusing on full range of motion and I wanted my form to be excellent. Now today, I tried to do push-ups like that (I did like 10 and I took a video of myself performing them and I was still doing them a little deeper than parallel to the ground lol) and they felt way, way easier for me to perform them. Now the question is, since I want to join the military and want to do at least 70 in 2 minutes, should I keep doing them chest to floor or until arms are parallel to the ground to increase my reps? For sure I can do much more by doing them the other way, but don't know what should I keep doing. So yea, by doing the push-ups with chest to the floor they were harder and I was wondering why is it that hard to get to such a high number and I thought something was wrong with me. All until I saw other people from military etc performing a high number of reps. What do you think I should stick with? I am from Croatia and I forgot to mention this, while doing push-ups your arms should be at least parallel to the ground so they count it in the military here. Just a few days ago I hit 15 pull-ups and I wondered why was I progressing faster and easier with pull-ups but not push-ups. Now as I said, should I keep doing them as I did or should I start doing them the other way? Every answer is highly appreciated, thanks for reading this and your time. [link] [comments] |
| Results and feedback about the BWF Primer routine Posted: 19 Jan 2021 09:56 PM PST January is about to end. On Jan 1 the mod(s) Nick brought out a beginner friendly routine to make more people enthusiastic about calisthenics by lowering the bar to entry. https://www.nick-e.com/exercise-library/routines/reddit-bwf-primer/ It was a two-week routine; but, you were supposed to continue it further until you were able to do it 3 times a week till you reached the toughest progressions. People who followed along with the routine from Day 1, how was your experience/results (what was your physical condition before). Kindly share your feedback. [link] [comments] |
| SELF workouts on Youtube - has anyone done these? Posted: 20 Jan 2021 09:56 AM PST Does anyone have any experience doing the SELF workouts on Youtube (cardio, bodyweight, kettlebell, etc.)? Thoughts? Any results? Trying my darnest to get back into a doable new routine outside of gyms, while I work on building my own. So far I've liked their workouts, they of course don't give me the same feeling as a bar workout, but gives a decent sweat. Cheers! [link] [comments] |
| Push-ups with external rotation of the shoulder Posted: 20 Jan 2021 06:18 AM PST Hi, guys! What do you think of doing push-ups with external rotation of the shoulder (fingers pointing backwards)? Since exercises that involve internal rotation are an issue for people with shoulder impingement (or some other kind of pain in such area), I figured this variation would be helpful. Anyway, I haven't seen it recommended by fitness-savvy people online or research papers, so I'm wondering if there is actually some downside that I'm not aware of. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 20 Jan 2021 09:59 AM PST Hi guys, i'm interested to dive into calisthenics. I already read something about it regards some forms, skills and before achieve that there are minor steps that you need to achieve first. But every website i read it about talk really randomly. Do you know a website that shows every possible calisthenics skill, every name, and maybe an order? Maybe better if you start with this, and only after you unlocked these things u can try this one. For example, for a newby, trying to do a full planche as his first skill is madness [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 19 Jan 2021 10:56 PM PST What, in your opinion, is the ideal breakfast? For building muscle, and is also healthy. [link] [comments] |
| When’s the earliest I can start weighted calisthenics? Posted: 20 Jan 2021 06:17 AM PST Hi, I (16, male, 124 pounds, 5'6)started calisthenics a few months ago and saw a lot of results, but I just really wanna gain size, and I saw a lot of ppl saying weighted calisthenics helps u gain size. I already mastered all the basic excersizes (pushups, dips, rows , etc.) lmk what u guys think :) [link] [comments] |
| Loseness in the feed web of gymnastic rings, any tips in how to fix? Posted: 20 Jan 2021 12:04 PM PST I noticed that one of my rings always go a little down after a set, and this is starting to annoy me, any tips on How to fix it [link] [comments] |

| How Many Eccentric Reps Equal 1 Concentric Posted: 20 Jan 2021 12:07 AM PST I am pretty aware that things like this cant be generalized like the tittle, however im curious, how many ideal negatives (15 sec, full ROM)should be done in order to achieve your first positive in a certian movement [link] [comments] |
| What's the hardest part of bodyweight fitness for you? Posted: 19 Jan 2021 08:17 PM PST I was talking about this with a friend and he said consistency. I think that it's knowing if you're doing something correctly. What do you think? [link] [comments] |
| Integrating one arm kettlebell press into recommended routine advice Posted: 19 Jan 2021 08:56 PM PST Hello all! So I've been following and enjoying the RR, and recently gotten some brand new kettlebells. I've been using swings as my hinge portion of the workout which I've been really enjoying, and now I'm wanting to incorporate one arm kettlebell presses into the routine. I currently have a ring dip goal, so I want to keep doing dips 3x a week. I was thinking alternating push-ups with kettlebell presses so week A would be press-pushup-press, and week B would be pushup-press-pushup. I still have good gains to be made from push-ups, and I quite enjoy them, so I don't want to cut them out entirely. I'm wondering if anyone has experience integrating pressing in the routine, and what people think. Thanks guys. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 20 Jan 2021 03:28 AM PST So I want to do a workout containing muscle ups, HSPUs, front levers, etc... Problem is, I haven't pooped since yesterday afternoon and I've eaten plenty since. I can feel that there's plenty of food in my stomach and I want to poop before I start my workout. It wouldn't be an issue with a general weights workout, like, lying down and bench pressing is fine, but swinging around on bars is uncomfortable. I always feel great working out after a coffee and a poop, but i'm trying to cut down on caffeine cos it's affecting my sleep. Any other suggestions? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 19 Jan 2021 08:02 PM PST I'm having this issue with tucked in button down shirts. 5'10", working with a 29" waist, so I technically should wear a small, but the shoulders are too narrow on a small. So I have to bump up to medium to avoid being "shirt too small guy", which means my shirt has a waist of like 30"-32". Do we have to tailor all our clothes? Are there retailers that make clothes specifically for this issue? [link] [comments] |
| cardio exercises that avoid pressure on the forefoot Posted: 19 Jan 2021 05:13 PM PST Years ago I had surgery to remove a bothersome nerve in my foot and it never healed well. It's very hard to put constant pressure on the forefoot part of my right foot. So things like running or even cycling are really hard and cause a lot of nerve pain. Does anyone have any recommendations for intense, sustained cardio exercises that I can do without putting a lot of pressure on the front of my foot? [link] [comments] |
| Right scapula elevating during bottom half of pull up Posted: 19 Jan 2021 04:58 PM PST Not sure when I developed this bad habit, I've been training pull ups for close to a year. When I recorded my session I noticed my right shoulder elevates during the bottom portion of the pull up, then at the top position it depresses again. Is this caused because of my right lat? Or is it a different muscle. How can I improve on it? I started doing my reps slower, really focusing on keeping my shoulder depressed. When I really focus on keeping my right shoulder depressed I fail much sooner than I did before. So I dusted off the ol' resistance band. My left shoulder is fine, by the way. I'm a leftie so naturally it's stronger. [link] [comments] |
