@bibbigo My PT had me doing them standing up but with band so there was resistance. When I could do that well I graduated to lying on my side with a weight. Again, the idea was to increase resistance.

@bibbigo Is there any resistance on exercise 1? Gravity would be pulling the plate down but you are moving it horizontally. Thus, the only force you're overcoming is inertia. But since you are moving slowly there's almost no inertia. If you're doing to do these, I'd do them lying on my side so...

@this_dot I have anecdotally noticed first rep velocity vs max reps correlation. However, I wonder if excessive velocity on early reps takes more or less energy than slower reps. The Russian guy who does 100 reps does them all with moderate velocity. In other words: are high velocity reps...

@steve774 That guy must have long arms in order to do a one armed straddle L-Sit! (Joke!)

@jun_za I recently posted about doing external rotation work in shoulder extended position: There's a variant to my video where you do it with a band between both wrists. The neat thing about external rotation in this position is that it uses the teres minor more than the infraspinatus. Most...

@juneie Real too if I remember. Actor trained to actually do it.

@amacias21 Thank you very much for your very thorough and interesting answers.

@amacias21 Sick work! You clearly do a lot of "skill" work. Do you consciously divide out strength work from skill work to keep from overtraining? How about flexibility? What frequency do you do skills, flexibility, and strength? Also does your school have a dietitian? Do you actually track...

@jcob You can do negatives with a counterweight. It's tricky especially if you are holding the counterweight rope in your off hand but its how I learned to do it. Static line from REI or other rock climbing store. And watch alex puccio doing oap on youtube.
