| I (F31) went from 1 push-up to 30 in about 2 months! Posted: 11 Feb 2021 05:42 PM PST I applied to a job mid December that requires a physical test and the ability to do 15 push-ups among other things. I could do 1 at the time and I've had issues with my collarbone for years so I wasn't super optimistic but I decided to give it a try and scheduled the physical test as late as I could (02/18) I did push-ups every day, starting with inclined push-ups and push-ups on my knees. And I quickly was able to do around 6-7 regular ones. And then I got stuck for about 2-3 weeks at 8 push-ups max and I thought for sure I wouldn't be ready on time. But I went to visit a friend and we ate like pigs for a week, a lot of fast food and sugar... And I could do 11 push-ups. And then 15. And then 20, 25, and finally 30 today. I guess I wasn't eating enough to create muscle? It feels super good to be able to do something I thought I never could. Even if I don't get hired, I'll be happy I didn't waste my time. Next goal: pull-ups! [link] [comments] |
| Progressive overload and training frequency Posted: 12 Feb 2021 06:37 AM PST I hear all the time that progressive overload is key. Ideally, you should progress each time you work out by adding weight, reps or increasing difficulty in some way. But, how is this possible with 3-4 sessions a week? For true progressive overload wouldn't the best option (theoretically) be to train super hard and then rest up to i.e. 7 days? Then you are 100% sure you are fresh and recovered and can push harder than last time. If you train every other day your muscles have 48 hours to recover. How can that ever be enough recovery over time if you want to progressively overload? Sure you may be able to keep it up for a couple of weeks, but fatigue accumulates. Truly pushing yourself each workout I find great but also very taxing. You hear about bodybuilders resting a week between intense leg workout which are compound by nature. So are most Cali exercises. So, let's say you have had a deload week and is starting a new training block. Would you guys add difficulty every single training session or would you do the same volume/intensity for X number of workouts adding difficulty over time in another manner. If I add difficulty every workout it is simply impossible for me to train more than twice a week if I want to complete the workouts. This drastically reduces my training frequency. I'm a bit confused about this. Hoping for some insights. [link] [comments] |
| How do yall balance bw fitness and cardio (running) Posted: 12 Feb 2021 02:28 AM PST Hi, how do yall structure a training week with at least 2x calisthenics days (sets and reps), skill training (Handstands etc) and the big C word CARDIO? My larger priority is Handstands and Calisthenics. Cardio is only to stay fit. FYI I have been using running to replace leg days, yes it's not optimal but it suits my needs for now. My plan is 2 days running, 2-3 days sets and reps calisthenics, 2 days handstand [link] [comments] |
| Why do body weight exercises leave me so much more tired than weights? Posted: 12 Feb 2021 10:31 AM PST So when the gyms were open and I was doing weight workouts, I would leave the gym pumped. I'd get done with a workout and I felt like I wanted to do another one. Ever since I started sliding body weight workouts at home, I feel drained and exhausted and I just don't like it. Why is there such a difference? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 12 Feb 2021 10:04 AM PST Hi guys I just wanted to know what is the time gap between your meals [link] [comments] |
| Does anybody know any tips to reduce soreness? Posted: 12 Feb 2021 08:50 AM PST 16F here, did a real workout for the first time in a few months yesterday morning. Next morning came and now I'm incredibly sore. Arms, legs, bum, abs. The workout wasn't even that difficult when I did it, lol. Anybody have any tips to help reduce soreness so I can work out again tomorrow? [link] [comments] |
| are face pulls useful to eliminate winging ? Posted: 12 Feb 2021 09:46 AM PST do they strengthen your serratus anterior to eliminate winging? [link] [comments] |

| Artificial Intelligence Bodyweight Workout App Posted: 12 Feb 2021 06:26 AM PST Hi redditors, I built this Android app to create a personal-trainer like experience with just your smartphone, with a focus on bodyweight-only exercises. You need to place the phone on the floor and turn on the camera, the AI tracking counts your reps and keeps track of your workout. It also gives you interactive feedback and motivation based on how well you are doing. Would like to get some beta testers for this app from the bodyweightfitness community! Please reach out at anurag@insane.ai if you want to give any feedback. Thank you! [link] [comments] |
| 193lb 5’10 male who needs advice! Posted: 12 Feb 2021 11:10 AM PST I've never really been into fitness my whole life but I kinda want to get started and drop about 20lbs. I have no experience with any of this so any guidance would be super helpful! Thanks [link] [comments] |
| Pullups - fast reps vs slower reps? Posted: 12 Feb 2021 12:54 PM PST What do you think is better and why? If I do pullups as fast as possible (but still full ROM!) Im able to do 15x3 , however if I do them with 1sec pause at the bottom I lose a lot of strenght and do less more , maybe 10,11 reps. [link] [comments] |
| Weird feeling in upper triceps when doing ring support hold Posted: 12 Feb 2021 12:51 PM PST Hi bwf gurus. I've been working out for almost a year now and have always included BW exercises (push ups, pull ups, dips, rows) in my routine, so I'm definitely familiar with them. I recently got myself a pair of gym rings and I get this weird pain where the left tricep connects to the armpit when doing support holds. I try to keep a hollow body and my scapula protracted, but the pain persists. So far it seems to become painful only when i do a support hold of 5 sec or longer. I'm fine when doing dips or push ups with rings however. Anyone got an idea what it could be? [link] [comments] |
| Do you have any advices about planche and front lever? How to start ecc... Posted: 12 Feb 2021 12:48 PM PST I can do like 60 push ups almost all clean, 15 pull ups (now maybe less), and back lever one leg. [link] [comments] |
| Looking for a good follow along workout programme. Posted: 12 Feb 2021 12:41 PM PST Of all the things i have tried (outside of an actual personal trainer) i have found that follow along videos are the best for me. Its the closest feeling to having someone there with you while you workout talking you through the moves - giving you form queues etc. Are there any recommended full courses i can now follow? I'm fine with them being paid. I'm after a full 12 (or whatever) week program with follow along video exercises for each session focusing on suspension / bodyweight. [link] [comments] |
| Which core static stretches should i do after planche push ups for balance? Posted: 12 Feb 2021 12:28 PM PST I do intense static stretch after every pseudo planche push ups, So my front-delts got strong but i can't lower my hands and progress because i lose balance and fall. I think that's because i have underdeveloped core compared to shoulders. So which static stretches should i do to cool down all core muscles targeted by planche push ups? [link] [comments] |
| How fast does one normally improve? Posted: 12 Feb 2021 12:18 PM PST Ive (F, 23, 5'4, 111lb) been weightlifting (deadlifts, squats, hip thrusts etc) for a little but I'm not sure if I'm doing it correctly. are you supposed to finish each gym session completely dead and tired? How fast should I be able to see improvements in my strength (where I need to put on more weights onto my barbell)? I'm guessing that people can start adding weights every 2 weeks, but I don't see myself being able to do that. I weightlifter very on and off so I'm pretty much a beginner. People have been telling me I should bulk by 200 calories but I don't know if that may make me gain more fat. But I would do it if it's necessary. At the same time I hear that I can still CUT calories while lifting. Hope people have some advice! 😢 thank you! [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 12 Feb 2021 11:54 AM PST I'm trying to build out a corner of my house to be my "home gym", but I'm looking to focus on calisthenics specifically. I'm looking for a bit of advice about the gym equipment that I'm going to be needing to do this. Do you think that the only equipment that I would need to get is a pull up bar and a set of gymnastics rings that I can hang from the pull up bar? Is there anything else would you recommend I get if I'm looking to build a calisthenics-focused "home gym" area? [link] [comments] |
| I'm going to become a YouTuber one day Posted: 12 Feb 2021 11:39 AM PST I'm 7months in to calisthenics, still nooby I wanna start YT when I'm not trash at calisthenics 🤣 Wish me luck :) [link] [comments] |
| Muscle Mass correlation to Weighted Calisthenics Posted: 12 Feb 2021 10:33 AM PST There was this video by Yaad Mohammad who did weighted dips (70KG) before that he mentioned only doing (45KG) Dips. He said to have started using weights to gain muscle mass and gained 5K and with that his strength increased by a ton. I know more weight means relative strength dropping but in this context his strength went up.. what gives? Video: https://youtu.be/OeO0_Hbil90 [link] [comments] |
| Need a routine but I can’t use my right wrist at all Posted: 12 Feb 2021 10:26 AM PST I had surgery on my right wrist in December and totally stopped exercising. I need to get back in it but am now allowed any pressure if my right wrist whatsoever. Where can I find a daily routine of exercises that works for me? Feeling so out of shape already.
