@ironicall Interesting. Thought the same thing but didn’t have the mechanism for it. Just saw how many of those high level specialist AND generalist who are more casual get injured when doing Iron Cross. I got to thinking that the movement itself might not be very safe. Or worth it. Why risk a...

@khohanguc Exactly! That's an extra plus! Might as well take them!

@jesscat Congrats on your new gains! What a huge improvement!

@christianr_ The SPIN at the end made it even harder! 😂. Like goodness how can some people's shoulders do such a thing?

@neptune4 I LOVE this! There are so many stories of people who DON'T do it and are fine. So I think we need to read those too and develop nuance and figure out what circumstances are okay and which aren't rather than just preach that you will die immediately without one!

@ironicall I have heard this time and time again as well. What ends up happening to their shoulders? Did they explain it to you?

@christianr_ I watched one of them and I'm pretty sure my own shoulder just dislocated. 😂

@khohanguc Oh yes, I meant pushups! HSPUs too! They'll provide active mobility as long as you open the shoulders at the top. I think it mostly requires mobility in the hamstrings. Definitely some shoulder extension but I don't know if it needs so much that you won't get it from the pushup...

@travelbigtime At your progress level, where you can already do one, negatives might be a little too easy now. Try Assisted Pull-Ups where you go up with minimal assistance and come down with no assistance. That should help you get the volume at the intensity that you need.

@jessicarobertso07 Congrats on reaching a new PR in your Pull-Ups!

@iprayforpeace I would try Split Squats with that form. You can elevate the front foot to make it easier and gradually lower the elevation to make it harder. Another thing I would make sure to do is not to BOUNCE out the bottom of the squat. Gravity + load will add a LOT more load to the...

@dawn16 Thank you! Happy you like it and hope it helps!

@dom77 I'm sorry. Maybe I wasn't clear. I never said that there would be a loss of fitness. I said that the session wouldn't really be that useful if one were to deload the intensity or the reps in a set. Those sets wouldn't really be that challenging. If we are going to do that, we could simply...

@khohanguc If I had to pick two, it would be the Split Squat and the Jefferson Curl. If you get those two down, your lower body mobility is going to be GREAT! For the Upper Body, as long as you're hanging at the bottom of your Pull-Up and Chin-Ups and as long as you're using full ROM with a...

@jesusloverr Thank you! It actually was WAY more positive than I thought it would be. I expected it to be one of those where people get mad about the almighty warm-up LOL

@rando That's a solid hang for the kids! Nice work for them! 💪 I think in that video, by the way, they use a different kind of bar and it's kind of harder to hold onto. It rotates.

@jesusloverr I am looking forward to working together some day! It's always an honor when people believe in us and want to try out our method! Thank you! Ask everything you want. I love talking about this stuff 😊 So first, limit your other sources of wrist strain so you can "save" your...

@eleanorwhite Good question because if you deload incorrectly, you can actually deload the training stimulus and the session won't really be useful. When you deload, try deloading the SETS. That way you still get an intense stimulus, but you simply get less of it. It's kind of like if you were...

@jesusloverr No problem! :D Not much at all. I'm actually not near as active as people would think. I ditched all the extra movement stuff I was doing long ago so on off days, I go for a walk sometimes and that's it. I spend a lot of my day on the computer answering emails, making post...

@lucie_tsao Goodness, that's so true. Sometimes I think people think low intensity = easy but when you make up for it with the reps, those sets can be worse (in terms of how they feel) than high intensity sets where you do them and then they're over sooner. 😂
