| Posted: 27 Feb 2021 06:30 PM PST After about 4 months of weighted pull-ups and dips I was able to do my first muscle up today. I went to a park with a bar and I thought to myself, "lemme see if I can muscle up." And after a few fails I was finally able to do one. This subreddit helped me stay motivated so thank you guys. Edit: Thank you guys for 700+ upvotes and several medals it truly means a lot. I hope I was able to motivate you guys to keep on moving forward. Best of luck on your fitness journeys!

| Is there a video of someone doing the full RR? Posted: 28 Feb 2021 10:54 AM PST I'm trying to read through everything but honestly can't seem to wrap my head around all of it. Is there a video I can watch of someone just doing the whole thing, so I can copy them? [link] [comments] |

| why has my normal pushups limit decreased after moving onto harder progressions? Posted: 28 Feb 2021 10:34 AM PST So a couple of months ago I could do 20 pushups in one go(not a lot I know), and I moved on to harder progressions. I'm now doing ring dips and decline pike pushups and I'm making a lot of progress. I tried normal pushups today and my maximum was 15 and sometimes lower!? I was told that doing harder progressions would make normal pushups way easier, not do nothing? Is this normal? [link] [comments] |
| Muscle insertions and muscle belly size Posted: 28 Feb 2021 10:57 AM PST I hear a lot about how low insertions and large muscle bellies are preferred in bodybuilding as they tend to fill out the entirety of arms and legs. I am curious as to whether they affect performances of skills in calisthenics. Is there any relation between tendon strength and muscle insertion? [link] [comments] |
| I gained 6 pound on diet break Posted: 28 Feb 2021 10:31 AM PST I gained 6 pound on diet break I feel depressed now I am on the therd day is it ok do gain that much and is it easy to lose it when I start diet again? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 28 Feb 2021 10:25 AM PST What are your thoughts on this exercise? I would like to have an exercise that isolates my biceps in the end of my pull session but it looks hard on shoulders. Otherwise I don't isolate much my biceps and the only biceps targetted exercise I do in my session is negative one arm pull ups at the beginning of my session. My pull session is like : 4 sets each, 1min rest between :
What do you think ? [link] [comments] |
| beginner pull up progression question Posted: 28 Feb 2021 10:18 AM PST I've been doing RR for 2 months and am currently on the progression negative pullups. I am wondering if supported pullups would be beneficial (either to swap out with negatives completely or every other workout, etc.) Currently I can do 2 negative pullups (~10 second decline) and ~4 one foot chair supported pullups. Any feedback is appreciated thanks! [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 28 Feb 2021 11:47 AM PST Ok, you may call me a simp, yea yea yea. Ok, so, basic things: I am 13 and in 8th grade. I can do 50 pushups, in perfect/good form. I am thinking about impressing a girl through that. If you can tell me other calisthenics moves that I can impress a girl with, that would be great! (Fitness is not the only thing I am getting a girl with, FYI) [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 28 Feb 2021 03:55 AM PST First of all, I will give information about my bodyweight exercise progress, I can do 15 clean pull-ups, 35 straight bar dips, 25 regular dips , around 35-40 pushups. I can hold a freestanding hand-stand quite well, around 30 sec without any problems on ground or dip bars. I've always wanted to learn hand-stand press on dip bars, but I feel like I lack the strength or maybe I need to focus on some exercises. Can anyone give me any advice on what to focus on during my workouts to achieve hs press ? [link] [comments] |

| How do you train when outside is cold, dark and/or soaked? Posted: 28 Feb 2021 04:49 AM PST Hello everyone, I've been consistently training outside/inside, but only in "ideal" conditions: • Warm/RT • Dry • Bright While I still easily manage pushing exercises indoors, any pull exercises require that I'm outdoors. I feel like I can make a lot more progress if I can train in the morning. I'm not sure what other people do to train outside when weather isn't on their side. How have you guys trained when outside conditions were less than ideal? Edit: I have a jungle gym outside, meaning conditions would affect training pull exercises. [link] [comments] |
| Kettlebell + recommended routine Posted: 27 Feb 2021 01:14 PM PST Hi guys, is there any way to incorporate kettlebell into The recommended routine? I stopped going the to gym last March due to covid. So I have just ordered an equipment for bodyweight fitness in order to get in shape again. I also have 16kg kettlebell so I'm wondering if there is any template for bodyweight workout which can also use a kettlebell. [link] [comments] |
| I want huge calves. Please advise Posted: 28 Feb 2021 09:48 AM PST Hi, folks, this is my first post here. I've been doing bodyweight exercises for close to a year now. My physical condition has greatly improved and I've gained a few kg, which is exactly what I wanted. However, my calves haven't grown much in this time. I hit them with a 2-3x100 bent knee calf raises almost everyday and as much walking as I can. Don't imagine I'm a big guy. I weigh 60kg at 173cm tall and my calves are the thinnest part of my body and quite possibly the weakest too. I can almost wrap my hand around my ankle and I don't like it. How do you guys and gals suggest I blast the life out of them? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 28 Feb 2021 05:49 AM PST Hi guys, hope everyone is well, I've just got some tall parralettes/dip bars and would like some help with a training plan sets reps and progressions and a split of how often to train with them. There's a lot of single videos out there but no real plans or advice on how often ect I am pretty average in all areas strength, flexibility mobility and want to improve my strength and body composition. Thanks in advance [link] [comments] |
| Questions Regarding Increading Volume in RR Posted: 27 Feb 2021 09:25 PM PST I have the following goals for the next 4-6 weeks: Skill: 5 Freestanding Handstands Skill: 20s L-sit Strength: 5 Archer Rows Strength: 5 L-sit Pull-ups Strength: 5 Pistol Squats I've decided to stick with the RR workout thrice a week (M-W-F), but I've decided to increase the volume of the workout since I usually have juice left in the tank and I want to focus on a more 50-50 split between hypertrophy and strength. As such I've decided to include skill work during my workouts (but before strength), increase all sets from 3 to 5, and add cool-down/isolation work. For example, my routine looks like the following (the progessions follows the v4 progression chart here): —Warm-up—1x10 Burpees 1x10 Shoulder Band Warm-up 1x10 Wrist Mobility Warm-up 1x10 Bodyweight Squats 30s Deadbugs 30s Arch Body Hold 30s Ring Support Hold 1x5 Skin the Cat —Skill Work— 5-10 minutes of Handstand Work (180s total hold time minimum) 2-5 minutes of L-sit Work (20s total hold time minimum) —Strength Work— 5x(5-8) One Arm Pull-up Progression 90s rest at 10x0 tempo 5x(5-8) Pistol Squat Progression 90s rest at 10x0 tempo 5x(5-8) Ring Dip Progression 90s rest at 10x0 tempo 5x(5-8) Nordic Curl Progression 90s rest at 10x0 tempo 5x(5-8) One Arm Row Progression 90s rest at 10x0 tempo 5x(5-8) Ring Push-up Progression 90s rest at 10x0 tempo 5x(8-12) OA Plank Progression 90s rest at 10x0 tempo 5x(8-12) Hyperextension Progression 90s rest at 10x0 tempo 5x(8-12) Ring Pallof Press Progression 90s rest at 10x0 tempo —Isolation, Flexibility, and Cool Dowl— 5x10 Bicep Curls 90s rest at 10x0 tempo 5x30s German Hangs 90s rest at 10x0 tempo 5-10 minutes Running 1 minute Deep Breathing I want to make sure I'm doing everything properly with changing up the RR so I have the following questions:

| Not feeling Bicep during RTO/REG support holds Posted: 27 Feb 2021 08:43 PM PST I've worked with Rings over some time now and I've noticed that even in the beginning when I did support holds even RTO didn't make me feel my bicep. I always see how people comment Rings give them the best stretch in the biceps doing simple stuff. I even tried pelican push ups still don't feel much. Form is good I don't collase I depress enough and I DEFINITELY lock elbows keep everything tight etc. is it just me? [link] [comments] |
