| Is remote training a good option? Posted: 17 Feb 2021 09:11 AM PST I don't have a gym close enough to my home, and I really feel like I should start exercising firstly for my health and lastly for my looks. I'm afraid I won't be consistent, I'll lose my motivation pretty fast, and all those fitness apps I previously installed will be a waste of space on my phone. I want to train correctly, but on my own, I figured a program would help me, but if I'm thinking better, if there is nobody to keep me accountable, I'll fail. What should I do? Any advice?

| M 18, 7 month progress. Idk what when i was then but im 140 lb now Posted: 16 Feb 2021 07:28 PM PST Im 5'10 or 5'11 btw I think a big factor is my protein intake and diet. I wasnt able to hit enough protein a day before So i got 100g a day now Before my routine was straight trash. Im not even gonna lie. I did just like 200 pushups with added weight then like 40 pike pushups and 100 squats every single day. I changed it obviously Routine: Monday and Thursday Plance Pushup with weighted vest 3-4 sets of 8-10, Pike pushups 3 sets of 10. I make it as hard that i can still do it, Bicep curls with resistance bands 3-4 sets of 10, Quick ab workout Tues and Friday Squats 4 sets of 10-15, Abs Wednesday and Saturday Ring Pullups 4 sets of 6, Ring Dips 3 sets of 8, Ring rows 3-4 sets of 10, Side lateral raise with resistance band 3 sets of 10 Lifting my legs from hanging on rings And this one ab exercise with rings you start in a plank position close to the ground and you have to stand up and dont arch your back backwards The equipment i use is: Paralets or whatever, Rings, Backpack with weight, And resistance bands If anyone has questions you can dm me btw 🤷 [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 17 Feb 2021 10:51 AM PST Hello everyone, during the last months I've beend doing a PPL routine and noticing a lot of progress, but I really wanted to put the extra effort in each training that I had, given that I felt like sometimes I ended up with 5%-10% of gas in the tank. So I created a series of "finishers" that help me empty out my energy and also help me with some cardio/conditioning gains and thought I could share this with you: These have worked wonders for the final minutes of my workout like I said, when I'm done with my normal routine, I usually do one of these bad guys to fully empty the tank. So I'm assuming you already did your fair share of your usual bodyweight routines, call it Push/Pull, Full Body or whatever, and you have a couple of minutes (10-15 min) to completely drain your energy and call it a day. I put together a video with the complete exercises for reference Finisher Variation #1 Finisher Variation #2
Finisher Variation #3
Finisher Variation #4
----- Programming: Option A) Choose a variation of your choice and handle it as AMRAPs (As many reps as possible) given 10 to 15 minutes Option B) Do 3 to 4 rounds of one finisher variation of your choice for time, and try to improve your time in a weekly/monthly basis ----- FAQs:

| Calisthenics Compilation 2020 - Some skills I’ve learned Posted: 17 Feb 2021 04:35 AM PST Hey all, just decided to put together a video of some of the movements I've learned over my 6 years of training street workout/calisthenics: My favorite skills are one arm handstands and Hefestos (+ Entrada de Angel). I find handstand work seems to carry over into planche and other exercises really well I've always struggled with pulling movements more - Front lever is the most difficult move for me personally, any advice for improving it would be greatly appreciated! My goal is to learn front lever pull ups by the end of the year and get better at one arm pull ups Stats and Routine: Sex: male Height: 5'9 Weight: 170 lbs Age: 23 Routine: I train daily. Sometimes I take a day off, but I constantly "Grease the Groove" with doing planche holds/push ups, front levers, back levers, human flags, handstand, hefestos, and HSPU (all throughout the day). And on 3-4 days per week I train pull ups, dips, muscle ups and push ups (the "basics" for sets/reps). Usually I just max out for 3 sets of each with 5 minute breaks. Sometimes I also do sets of say 15 pull ups every 5-15 mins, same with dips and push ups. Also do muscle ups occasionally, just max reps for a few sets, 10 mins between sets. But for the most part, I just do the skills I love whenever I can My main goals have always been to learn to static movements/holds for the most part, it's really satisfying once I get a new PR or especially when I do a new skill for the first time [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 17 Feb 2021 09:10 AM PST Now I understand that this may not be inline with what this sub is all about but I've been following the routine here and have struggled a little to digest all that protein. I had cottage cheese curry last night and had a full stomach all day today. Did not feel like I wanted to eat a lot. And hence I ate only very little for the dinner tonight. How do you guys manage eating the required macros and not feel full or bloated? Anything that you eat to boost digestion? Sorry if this is off topic, wanted a little guidance. [link] [comments] |
| Muscle up help?? Been trying for 1 year!! Posted: 17 Feb 2021 09:06 AM PST I have been training to get the muscle up for about a year now but little difference has been made. I train both weighted dips (max being 45kg x 14) aswell as weighted pull ups (max 45kg x 1 and 24kg x 9). I have recently started training clapping pull ups aswell for explosive strength. The past 4/5 months have been the same evertime I train the muscle up (about 3 times a week) in which I can only get 1 or 2 with alot of kipping and uneven arms. I have tried lots of tutorials on YouTube but they dont help very much and its really frustrating. If anyone out there is a muscle up expert I would really appreciate help :) (ps 80kg 5ft9) [link] [comments] |
| Mobility and functional movement resources Posted: 17 Feb 2021 06:49 AM PST Hi everyone, I'm looking for resources on mobility and functional movements, akin to what Saturno Movement, Tom Merrick, and Antranik put out. (Though less of the strength training/ calisthenics and more stretching and loosening.) What are other favorite people/programs to check out? And what are the r/bodyweightfitness picks for resources and libraries/databases for mobility drills? Ideally free as there are soooo many apps and youtube channels. That said totally worthwhile to pay for quality content [link] [comments] |
| How safe is a pull up bar without the safety wedge? Posted: 17 Feb 2021 12:38 PM PST I just bought a pull up bar and it came with no safety wedge. I put it up amd tried a few pull ups and seems to be ok but I'm not sure how reliable that is. I weigh 140lbs for reference. Thank you! [link] [comments] |
| Is it recommended for me to eat 2800 - 3000 calories a day? Posted: 17 Feb 2021 09:40 AM PST I'm a 16 years old guy and my weight is 50KG, my body fat is around 13-14% or maybe less. Obviously I wanna put some muscle mass and recently I downloaded the app called "MyFitnessPal" to track my calorie and protein intake mostly. I choosed the option to gain 0.25 KG of muscle/weight per week which gives me around 2660 calories per day, but yesterday I ate 2900 and I was ok with it (My maintenance calories are 2300). So my question is: Is it bad that I eat such high calories and even more of what that app suggests me to? Or should I just change to 0.5KG per week (2870 calories per day according to MyFitnessPal)? Will I gain more fat? More muscle? Faster? (I do bodyweight with a Weight vest by the way). [link] [comments] |
| Full body calisthenic program recommendation for a beginner Posted: 17 Feb 2021 09:37 AM PST Hi there, Wondering if anyone can recommend a suitable program (with different levels ideally) for a skinny fat 25 year old male looking to build a lean physique. I'm quite athletic albeit a novice at properly working out. Tried checking out Youtube, but I'm bombarded with the options available - so if someone could recommend a program that has worked for them, it would be greatly appreciated. [link] [comments] |
| Handstand to tuck planche +holding vs just hold attempts? Posted: 17 Feb 2021 01:04 PM PST Hi, I wanna know which move should I do as main exercise for planche. Lowering handstand to tuck planche and holding or just trying tuck planche holds? Thanks If I should do both then, which one first? [link] [comments] |

| Posted: 17 Feb 2021 12:48 PM PST So I've been working out for a while now, (2 years+ with breaks, been working out regularly since September) and I can tell that most of my body parts are improving constantly. However it seems like no matter what I do I just can't put on any size in my arms. I have been stuck at 33cm (approximately 13 inches) for more than a year now and I just can't break through this plateau. I'm 180cm and around 65kg, my routine pretty much consists of compound movements only (pull ups, chin ups, dips, push ups and rows) and from what I see most people manage to get decent results with just that when it comes to arm development. I'm able to do around 16 pull ups and 20-25 dips so I don't consider myself a beginner but I sure look like one. What can I do to add more size in my arms? Would adding more isolation movements be the solution, adding weight or am I maybe missing something else in my routine? [link] [comments] |

| Posted: 17 Feb 2021 11:08 AM PST Please share a very effective workout video which gives a workout for the abdominal muscles or any other muscle group. I would like if it gave you, or someone you know, very nice results. [link] [comments] |

| Core exercises that don't involve hinging of the hip? Posted: 17 Feb 2021 10:21 AM PST So I have hip dysplasia and a very slight (but still there) tear in my labrum. In the past months, I've come to realize that a lot of my recent hip pain is coming from my core weakening due to lack of training. I used to train core and calisthenics very consistently but stopped quite abruptly for other types of athletics (biggest mistake). In the past few weeks, I've tried to do exercises that would normally not be any difficultly, but they seem to be causing a large amount of discomfort in my hip. Any exercise that involves a hip-hinging motion causes my hip to partially subluxate within a few reps. Has anybody here been in a similar situation or know of any core strengthening exercises that don't involve the hinging of the hip? Thank you! [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 17 Feb 2021 10:20 AM PST So, I work in a warehouse where I have to regularly lift very heavy things, but I never know what I will need to lift before going to work. I might have to move a 205 litre barel of oil, a shit-tonne of batteries, or only a few break discs or small car doors, etc... I never know. So how do I work out if I can't really have rest days? I work out every single morning, I get up, work out, and have breakfast. I push myself to (almost) failure as often as I can, occasionally dialing it back, but not stopping entirely because, to be honest, working out helps me to cope with the pandemic. I have gone to work with sore abs before, and then had to lift a shit-tonne of batteries and clutches and put them in a stillage, (you really need to clench your abs or your back will be fucked) so by the end of the day my stomach was aching a lot, and my biceps are very sore from work today. I don't want to pull a muscle, but can't guarantee I will get a good muscle workout from work on quiet days. So I'm not sure the best thing to do... [link] [comments] |
| Good warmups before ring muscle ups? Posted: 17 Feb 2021 02:35 AM PST I've been trying to learn ring muscle ups and my tendons are in pain (that transition part hits hard!) even after my usual warmup exercise, so I figure I am not warming up well enough. I do ring rows and bicep curls on an angle so that I don't reach hypertrophy by doing many reps. Any good warmup exercises you can recommend? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 17 Feb 2021 02:15 AM PST Hey guys, wondering what are your thoughts on certifications, have any of you done any? My primary goal is to attract more clients and think that a certified professional is the right approach. Any thoughts? [link] [comments] |
| Are there alternate progressions for Wall Headstand Push-Up Eccentrics? Posted: 16 Feb 2021 09:44 PM PST In Phase 3 of the move routine, after one reaches 3x8 Elevated Pike Push Ups, it says to go to Wall headstand Push up eccentrics. I really can't do this and I was wondering whether there were alternate progressions for this to get to the wall headstand pushups. thanks 😁 [link] [comments] |
| Lower trap activation? Trap-3 raise regression? Posted: 17 Feb 2021 04:45 AM PST I am really Upper trap dominant. I'm trying to strengthen my lower and mid traps to take some of the load. I've been told the Trap-3 raise (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T72i9dwF1PI) is the exercise to start with but I can only feel my upper traps working. What is the most basic regression I can use to get my lower traps firing? Thanks! [link] [comments] |
