@compassionate_rn You should post this in the daily discussion thread, not here. This one is the most recent one but another post goes up in about 3 hours.

@jcoliver75 Having a place to row is ideal, but there will be a (less good) substitute for rows for people that cant acquire a place to row by day 1! Other than that, no equipment should be necessary

@dawn16 Yaaaay for straight legs

@dawn16 You're very welcome, Enver!

@dawn16 A level 3 pre-pike has the shoulders starting over the hands like a normal pushup, but the hips are positioned like a pike, and you then push into a full overhead position. A pike pushup starts in the full overhead position, and ends in a full overhead position. Here's an illustrative...

@tony101365 There was a link to the guide on day 3, just below the link to the rows guide! :) Here it is if you don't wanna go back to Day 3 and look

@monkiesmama Bridges as in Thoracic Bridges are a super niche demonstration of high levels of thoracic and hip extension rather than a way to effectively develop either of those, or strength. Their place in convict conditioning is a little baffling to me as they don't really have any utility in...

@bmiranda Fingers crossed! :)

@wally1941r welcome! we're happy to have you and I hope you enjoy the 14 day event (or just the program overall, if you are starting early) and hope that it helps you get into a new set of good habits for the year :)

@diesellover There will be pre-requisites for each program, so whatever set of pre-requisites you can hit will dictate which program is appropriate for your level!

@cybermommy2011 Since the 2017 update of the RR, it's been recommended that skill work be separated from the main training into a 'skill day', which can be found here: https://www.reddit.com/r/bodyweightfitness/wiki/kb/skillday/ It operates the same as it would with the old RR, simply do it on...

@jared01 Download a metronome app on your phone, set it to 60bpm and play it while you do any static holds. Count the ticks as seconds! Easiest way to track.

@sophiamary Of all the things wrong with the RR, that's an exceptionally minor critique, to the degree that it was barely on my radar. Training the lower back will always be EXTREMELY limited without the assistance of external load. Pretty much the only reliable option is the reverse...

@dawn16 Don't worry it'll still be accessible, it just won't be the main routine of the sub that is recommended to everyone. It will be in an 'old routines' section! And you're very welcome!

@tabernaculumnus The order that the exercises are done during the buildup are from newest to oldest. At the beginning you have more brain space to focus on form and performing a new unfamiliar movement, and the more familiar ones come when that focus and effort is less required. Once you get to...

@tholah1 You've asked a lot of very excellent questions, but they require a bit of a long answer, so bear with me. There are two common issues when it comes to dips. Anterior shoulder pain, and costochondral pain. The latter is why they've not been included as standard. Anterior shoulder pain...

@dawn16 Come on Kram you should know better

@tholah1 Comment part 2. This time I'll address your query about birddogs (and by extension, deadbugs) being a good 'bang for buck'. tl;dr birddog's are a deep well of utility when it comes to motor control and intermuscular coordination that is transferable to other exercises. It is not...

@kellyomara Hey GothicFighter! Thanks for the feedback. Having an explanation of tempo is an excellent idea, I think I had meant to put a paragraph in about it a while back but the ADHD do be doing its thing. It'll go on the top of the list for written content additions. :) And thanks for...

@unikitty999 I personally recommend straight sets rather than pairing for the following reasons outlined in this comment: Having said that, if you're an RR veteran and you find comfort or enjoyment in the habit of pairing exercises, or if they help you to save time, then by all means!
