    @twins4heaven I know that PDF you're taking about! Haha Glad to hear you liked it and that sounds like a solid plan. I think I'll end up switching to upper lower in the next week or two. Also your handstand I think looks pretty good! It's all totally subjective though. I spent a lot of time...

    @j_g94 I honestly slacked on my cardio a lot. I would do 5 minutes of an elliptical as a warm up at the office before covid. I'd also walk a mile or two on my lunch on days I didn't work out. During covid I've been pretty sedentary. Maybe 2 bike rides a month and not a lot of walking. I have...

    Every Push-Up Progression. THE Push Up Index

    @thinker108 I might have to! This was a ton of work to make, so I'll have to judge it against other projects I'm working on, but I will put it on my list of things I can work on!

    @twins4heaven Thank you! Glad we are both here! Congrats! I've never liked the idea of full body, but have you had any success with an upper lower split? I've been hearing a lot about that as of late and like the idea of 3 times a week frequency for everything if my body allows it.

    @flairy I don't do much if any abb work, but the front lever is just basically a harder version of a dragon flag, considered the hardest abb exercise so front lever training helped me for sure.

    @j_g94 You've probably heard this before, but I'll reiterate jt... Inputs vs outputs. Working out consistently gives you a boost in how much energy you're spending/outputting. If you diet along with that and can stay consistent you'll slowly widdle away at your body fat. On the other hand if...

    @karinjeanne Nope, Irish and Costa Rican parents, though probably some ancestors in Spain. My mom is from Costa Rica and I believe her grandparents or great grandparents came from Europe/Spain.

    @startingover18 4-6 times a week for 50 min to 1 hour and a half. The biggest difference maker between me training all the time and not wanting to go to the gym was finding a goal/motivator that made me want to workout as much as I could to get there. (pro tip: don't set a schedule/date for...

    DIY Bench for Dragon Flags & Nordic Curls/GHR Guide

    @thomaslowrens About $30 worth of metal pipe. Someone else pointed out in the video that they're redundant too. I agree unless you're in the very particular situation of wanting to use it just for dragon flags and don't have a trx straps. Then the gap from the feet allow you to grab the board...

    @believer777 I work out my abbs pretty often. I really like dragon flags as well so progressing in that definitely gave me some abb gains. Diet is a huge part, but I also don't carry much fat at all on my stomach (mostly sits on my back). So genetics plays some roll for sure with your abbs...

    3 Years of Calisthenics (Lots of info)

    @am0516 Yes, for biceps and external rotators, but never for main compound exercises. But when I was recovering from injuries, I found it waaayyy more effective for gaining back strength to do machines and basic bodybuilding exercises. Much easier to load super light and get strong mind muscle...

    Every Push-Up Progression. THE Push Up Index

    @marussell95 I would work with whatever progression you can do 8 of or more. Then do somewhere between 70%-90% of whatever your max is. Looking for between 5-20 sets per muscle group per week. That should set you in the right direction for volume, obviously I don't know a ton about your...

    @dawn16 Hi! Thank you for the compliment and the in depth post! I am young (23) with previous weight lifting experience, so I think things moved along for me quick at the beginning. And progress has tapered down a ton, which I think is represented in the two graphs I posted. Sorry I didnt...
