@smithsinha You’re welcome. Best of luck.

@psychosarah Some great extra info! Kind of matches what I found on Google Ngrams too (edited my post)

@jermyn Thanks for chiming in! I wonder, how often do you move throughout the day? Like, would you say you’re always moving about, whether that’s exercising, limbering, walking etc? As opposed to sitting sedentarily (at a desk, on the sofa, say). I think that perhaps the more a person moves...

@smithsinha Very hard to say without knowing the ins and outs. Adding extra weight faster than your strength adaptations will lead to regression (in bodyweight skills). But saying that, it could also be overtraining, especially if you haven’t eased off for a long time. Fatigue does accumulate...

[The Etymology and Origins of the Word Calisthenics] According to Wikipedia, the etymology of “calisthenics” comes from: But as far as I can see there aren’t any details on where the term was originally coined, and who came up with it. This is purely for the sake of curiosity. Does anyone in...

@smithsinha A deload would be my first go to. Depending on your training volume and length, could be a light week, or could be an entire week off. Failing that, I’d consider one training cycle doing a completely different program entirely: stop training FL and start training OACU on your pull...

@smithsinha I’d say it’s mainly strength based tbh. Although of course there are crossovers between the two. If you desperately want a hypertrophy element I’d probably suggest doing a separate hypertrophic specific routine, but I don’t think it’s necessary to achieve the full FL.

@smithsinha Hey, yeah I did get it again. Then lost it again due to a shoulder injury which I’m going through rehab on now. My biggest challenge seems to be actually keeping the FL. I swear by this FL programme. I have every intention of doing it again once my shoulder recovers. Good luck!

@damonfriend Perhaps similarly I find not warming up my wrists makes them feel horrible when training handstands

@christianguy89 Geez that’s a lesson for us all I think, and something most of us are probably guilty of - showing off ours skills when our bodies aren’t prepared for it! I hope you can recover some of your skills again bud

@supperz0nic Dude keep us posted on the app. Interactive and clickable would be ace.

@christianguy89 Man that's horrible. I'm really sorry to hear that. How did it happen?

@adamgarfield This is the first I’ve ever heard of this. Sounds interesting though, as in the body adapts to always receiving a warmup or not. Would you be able to share any evidence to back this up (ie. links to studies)?

@snowgi7574 Consistency is the key - keep showing up and putting in the work and you'll get it eventually

After stumbling across The Mindful Movers’ recent Instagram post , where he claims that he hasn’t warmup up before working out in 2 years, and has done so with zero injuries, it made me wonder what the science actually says about warming up. Is the ingrained belief that we must warmup before...

@letthrmusixsaveyourlife I personally felt like the rows really helped with the hypertrophy component. Some trainers (like @jermyn) actually recommend to only train dynamic movements since the gains carry directly over to the statics

@savedbygrace21 Amazing work - it's so satisfying when you achieve one of your goals!

@abulawi32 You're welcome

@thetwister Thanks! Well done to you too.

@jmon You’re welcome. Best of luck to you!
