| Bloody hell, my Golfer's elbow has developed bursitis!! Posted: 16 May 2021 05:08 AM PDT Wow, I've been dealing with Golfers elbow for 11 weeks now. Been rehabbing and made lots of progress, until today. Now my Golfer's elbow has also turned into bursitis from going too hard. I haven't had this much stiffness since I first got golfers elbow!! There is definitely fluid and it's swollen. This also happened when I first got Golfers elbow, but the fluid and stiffness went away after a couple weeks. I'm just venting, this is so frustrating, I feel like all the progress I made is gone and now I'm back to where I started :( [link] [comments] |
| What do you think of Chloe Ting's workouts? Posted: 15 May 2021 06:07 PM PDT Hi everyone! I'm a male at around 165lbs/75kg, I don't know how much body fat. My goal is to lose fat, build strength, and to do moves like handstands, L-sits (I'm already doing the Skill day routine from this sub on TThS), levers, planches, etc. Also I want to fix my APT, lordosis, rounded shoulders, and forward head, but I already got a checklist of things I need to work on from a doctor, and I think most full-body workouts + the stretch routines I do would be good at targetting these areas. BUT just in case it changes anything, I wanted to mention it. I know that's not optimal but, now that I've started getting used to calorie deficit, I've been looking for some no-equipment (as in, no rows, no bar, anything. I don't even have a mat lol) full-body workouts on youtube and found that Chloe Ting has a bunch of them. I know her fitness advice is usually not good at all. What about her workouts though? Are they good enough? If no, what would you recommend? I plan on maybe picking two full-body workouts and alternating them on a MWF schedule. [link] [comments] |
| The minimal training time per week(Hyper Intensive) required to maintain a good shape Posted: 16 May 2021 01:37 AM PDT So, as a busy person, as manys are, cannot put too much time into workout. I achieved one arm pull up 4 years ago, now I can do 6 in a row, but only putting 30 minutes per week into working out, normally 5 mins of one arm pull ups and pistol squats per day with a day off per week, which sums up to around 30 mins per week, I have been training this way for 2 years straight, still have a bit of progress over time. Then recently a friend of mine asked me if he can keep his shape, he is in good shape, can do 15 normal pull ups, and he asks me how do I train normally, I don't know how to answer him, cuz no one's gonna believe me saying I only train for 30 mins per week and still have progress. So, theoretically, can normal people, keep their shape doing hyper intensive workout for only 30 mins per week? I know I can, but I don't know whether I am just a lazy genetic freak or not. 170cm 77kg, my legs are not light at all, I can pistol squat +70kg, one arm pull up +15kg. I am not a doctor nor a personal trainer, I just don't wanna screw my friend up if he really follows what I do. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 15 May 2021 10:43 PM PDT as the title says, I have been working on hold time and form, There is no waist bending elbows are straight its feeling solid noticeing small time improvements and i feel good about it. However My back feels absolutely tanked after FL day. Its saturday, I worked out wednesday still feel doms which is quite unusual. I started adding standing ab wheel rollouts after fl training for extra spinal ercetor work. It feels as if the static holds are causing my muscles to have problems staying locked up after the workout. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 16 May 2021 11:33 AM PDT Body Tightening Workouts? Was 420lbs down to 310lbs. While I lose weight what can I do to tighten upper body. 19 Male I have pretty strong legs from carrying around such weight for years. So when I started working out with weights I am going to focus on my abdomen, chest, and arms mostly. I have man titties that I would like to tighten away as I lose weight. I also don't want to get "lunch-lady" arms when I lose weight as right now my biceps aren't to lose. My abdomen will probably be very loose skin filled so what should I do for that? Any suggestions welcome I am 19 Malw [link] [comments] |
| Want to lose weight in my thighs/hips, struggling with it for years as a guy. Posted: 15 May 2021 08:31 PM PDT I've had "womanly" hips/thighs for years and even though the rest of my body is thin (very thin upper body, legs and arms) that area has always been something I'm very self conscious about. I love skinny jeans but it always sticks out and to me my body looks very disproportional. How can I focus on that area and shrink it? I know part of it is bone structure, but I really want to pin point that area and make it smaller. I was doing squats everyday for a while but I was told it might make my thighs more muscular and the size wont change much. For reference: https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/v290/Mariosrpg/Inked2021.jpg https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/v290/Mariosrpg/inkeddd.jpg Appreciate anyone who reads this! Sorry if it doesn't belong here. [link] [comments] |
| Side lunges – where to point my toes and general form cues? Posted: 15 May 2021 02:01 PM PDT I've been incorporating side lunges into my workouts lately to spice things up a bit and I'm curious how they're done when they're done properly. For instance, I've noticed that they feel a lot more intense if I point my toes 45 degrees (or so) outward with my feet as far apart as possible, but in every video I've watched that explains them they say your toes are supposed to be facing forward and your feet should be placed a bit but not a lot further apart than shoulder width. So, here are a few questions. Any other hints, tips or pointers not covered by these are very welcome too! :)

| Posted: 15 May 2021 03:14 PM PDT I've been doing (a version of) the RR since November 2020, pretty seriously. I'm stuck on 6-6-7 pull-ups (and even that 7th one is of dubious quality). I'm planning on trying to grease the groove during the summer (after my exams are done). Pseudo-planche push-ups are proving to be tricky, and I don't think I'm getting the form quite right. I'm not sure if arching my back during rows is bad form, but driving my shoulders back seems to make me thrust my pelvis forward a bit, and my back arches. I'm not sure if this is wrong, but while doing them, I don't feel myself arching (if that makes sense). Also, I tried some back lever training today, for the first time. It was so fun! :D Anyway, here's a link to a playlist of me doing the exercises. One set of videos is from about a month ago, and one is from today. The videos are in chronological order. Critique and tips are welcome! Thanks in advance! [link] [comments] |
| Learn Front Lever in 1 month? Rings or bar? Advices? Posted: 16 May 2021 12:51 AM PDT Hi guys, so I've been training calisthenics for a year now and worked a lot on the basics and a little bit on advanced exercises. For more than 8 or 9 months I'm stuck in the tucked front lover and don't seem to make any progress despite being a part of my pull days. So I figured that it might be better to just focus on it completely for a while until I learn it. I'll give myself 1 month to train it as much as possible and see how far I can get. My goal is a 3 sec hold. I wonder whether I should do it on the rings or on the bar? To those who can do it already, what advices or techniques helped you the most when learning it? I plan to use the tutorial video from Osvaldo Lugones on YouTube. It seems pretty comprehensive with progressions and workouts for each one. Video link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXef4preKY4 I'll also document my training and the results as a YouTube video. (Can share if anyone is interested) [link] [comments] |
| Can I get some feedback on my leg routine? Posted: 15 May 2021 12:50 PM PDT I was hoping to get some feedback on my leg routine. I currently run through this in the mornings on Saturday/Tuesday/Thursday. It takes me a little over an hour to get through. I'd like to trim it down and move it to my lunch hour so I can start running sprints in the morning (which I haven't done in probably a year). I should add that I've had two ACL surgeries with the last one being 3 years ago and my left side hamstring is still significantly weaker. Working on that hamstring is a big goal and an area where I feel like I'm struggling.
Thanks. I appreciate any suggestions. Stuff I have to work with: weighted vest (up to 150 lbs), adjustable dumbbells (50 lbs each), slant board, spin bike, couple different sized boxes. [link] [comments] |
| Skinny guy trying to build muscle Posted: 15 May 2021 06:33 PM PDT Hello all, I'm a pretty skinny guy. Im 17, 5 foot 8, and around 110 pounds. I want to try to get to around 130 pounds within the next 6 months or so, and I'll do that with an improved diet. The reason I'm here is for the workout portion of this weight gain as I don't want to gain only fat. I want to build muscle but I don't know where to start. I don't have access to any equipment or gym for the time being, so I'm relying on doing bodyweight exercises for the next 6 months or so. I'm looking to workout either every other day or 3 days a week. I've been trying to look for some apps to build a workout routine, but all the good ones require payment. I've been reading a ton of articles but none I could fine are actually tailored to skinny guys doing at-home fitness. That being said, can anyone help me build a workout routine or guide me to an app or article that could help me build one? Thanks a ton. [link] [comments] |
| Help me find a workout program for my goals Posted: 15 May 2021 02:27 PM PDT My goal is to be long lean and tight. Here's what my body is currently like: 28 year old female 5'6, 170 pounds Most weight is my midsection Jawline is not defined Skin around armpits is loose My butt is very small and I have hip dips *hip dips are not an issue for me but coupled with a smaller butt is very displeasing to my eye So my ratios are way off, think hank hill ass... or apple shaped I know I have the potential to have a really beautiful healthy looking body, I just want a plan that is effective and hard and works my entire body I love hiit and I'm not scared of weights. I have been weight lifting off and on for a while and I know the importance using weights plays on having a toned body. I'm looking for a plan that has me using my entire body throughout if that makes sense? If anyone has any better ideas on what I should be doing to achieve a lean right body let me know! I used to want a big butt and big strong legs but I know that's just not in the cards for me unless I live in the gym, it's just my genetics. New goal is lean and elongated with minor definition. I don't want to jiggle anymore, I want to see how far I can push myself! Edit: I should add I am dairy free and have an intolerance to gluten and am currently following an anti inflammatory diet to help with gut issues so my diet is on point! I'm ready to work work work [link] [comments] |
