Some weeks ago it was shared here my 6 month handstand progress video and due to the good response I decided to create this post. Here’s the video: On the journey from a 1s to 25s hold I learned some key insights you can use to progress faster or just improve your understanding about...

This video i do V-sit my maximum time and press handstand in the end.

Photos: I realize lighting makes a difference but There wasn’t much going on in the before photo trust me lol Stats: M/5'6"/SW: 165 lbs/CW: 125 lbs So just wanted to say I absolutely love the RR for how it’s improved not just my looks but also my whole life. I’ll definitely never stop...

Hey guys! Nick-E here. It's been quite a while since I've posted here, or since the sub has had much development at all; unfortunately no one on the mod team has quite as much time as we all used to, but a few of us are banding together to try and get the sub revitalised in the new year! This...

Hey guys, Just wanted to share a story, hopefully some of you will find it motivating. I had a tonsillectomy on Thursday so I had to spend a couple of days in hospital (plus 1 month off training, not cool.). Anyway, just when I arrive in the morning a guy comes in saying it seems like we're...

Why am I regressing in my pushups?😢 Last year, I was able to improve from not being able to do a single pushup to a maximum of 18 reps. However, I stopped for four months and recently started again. A week ago, I could only do a maximum of 10 reps, but I've noticed that I've been regressing...

Hey! I have a question regarding muscleups on rings. What mechanism causes the piking of hips? Sometimes I reduce my piking to close to zero, sometimes I dont, and I’m trying to understand why. My recent theory is the higher you pull the lesser piking in hips, but I’m not sure. Why pike in...

does the z press carryover to a full handstand better than a standing OHP? Z press sounds like a weighted pike pushup for me, i'm right? here's a video

Hello. A few years ago, I started using an app by Damian Mazurkiewicz called Bodyweight Fitness v1.7.0. Looking at github it seems he is no longer working on this project and that it has not been updated for the RR changes. Is there another app that has provides the RR tracking and guidance...

Hi newbie here, I´m having a question regarding proper pull up form, do you a) first engage your lats and then retract the shoulder blades (e.g. ) b) or first retract your shoulders and then engage your lats (depress shoulders) ( e.g. ) I´m having a hard time with a) but retracting my...

Someone requested a picture of before and After from my last post, so I decided to post a few pics Unfortunately I didn’t take any pics without my shirt when I first started training as I was really unhappy with my body, but I found one in a tank top and posted a few pics after 4-5 years of...

Hey guys, I am training planche since 1 month and half and I currently have a 3 sec adv tuck (almost perfect form) and before moving to the staddle planche (even if takes like 6 months or more) I would like to learn the perfect form of it, so I started doing assisted straddle planche (with a...

Context: I’m 18. 5’8 115-120lbs? (skinny) After not lifting for 6 months, I began exercising again. It’s been a month of bicep curls, hammer curls, pull ups, and chin ups. I work out everyday until failure. I work out at home, don’t go to gym. In the beginning, I had to do concentration curls...

Hi everyone! I posted a year and a bit ago on r/Fitness detailing the first year of my transformation. A few days after posting that I discovered calisthenics and body-weight exercises and it completely changed my life. I used to lift weights 5-6 days a week and also did Judo/Muay Thai at the...

I started training with BWT 1.5 year ago mostly high reps basic movements (dips, pull ups, squats and variations of them). Did this for 6 months, got fairly good results and noob gains. Did a couple of months of weight training with hypertrophy ranges 6-15, gained some size but not wasn’t still...

This is a guide for anyone looking to make something like this! TL;DR video version of this post here So this is a SUPER easy project, and I don't expect it to take over an hour for someone to do. (Yes that means you have no excuse to not actually make this). The only tools that are needed are...

So I've been trying to get into bodyweight training since January this year and I've tried GMB elements and Al Kavadlos's Get Strong work out book but I am really struggling to see some improvement in my strength. Particularly in my chin ups which is were I want to progress the most. I have been...
