BWF Primer Build-Up Community Event: Day 5

[desertrose81]

@zzyzzx12 I wouldn’t think so. Things to make sure of is put the sheet knot on the inside of the room or the side the door swings towards so that way it isn’t pulling the latch. I also knotted my sheet twice to make a bigger knot to disperse the weight a little more evenly on the door/frame.

@dontdosadness Thank you for doing this! I have a lot of trouble getting to the gym lately, and this is helping me keep my exercise habit.

@dontdosadness Day 5, still alive!

@dontdosadness My sets of 8 push ups were starting to get hard. How do I know if it's too much? I'm already doing incline on the counter top, so I"m not sure it makes sense to go higher. I'll be doing my workout 5 tomorrow morning.

@tater929 Go higher..... this phase is for building correct form..... you shouldnt go anywhere near failure

@dontdosadness Day 5 is in the pocket! Using the phone camera to check my form has been indispensable for the glute bridges. Took me until the third set to get close to the proper form. Only then did I start to feel my glutes doing the work instead of my quads. I had my feet too far away from my butt as opposed to too close as the section about quad dominance causes suggests on the website. Does that make sense?

@brojoe67 Maybe it makes sense, maybe it was your hamstrings working not your quads. who knows!

what matters is that you got it right!
well done!

@dontdosadness Got rings in today to do actual rows from a pull up bar vs reverse pull ups. The ring rows hit much different. I'd recommend doing rows for anyone doing the substitute

 

[psykes]

@dontdosadness Having a thing where my belly hits the ground for push-ups (not chest)… any tips?

 

[julienmarin]

@dontdosadness Done!

@dontdosadness Late to the party of course but enjoying things so far. My arms feel pretty weak but I’ve started recording my training sessions and I’m trying to correct as I go

 

[lewis5398]

@twohandsopen Good luck bro (◍•ᴗ•◍)❤

@dontdosadness Day 5 done. Definitely feeling it in my shoulders.

@dontdosadness Day 5 complete. Going to have to video myself doing the gluten bridges though because oh how tight my hamstrings felt .
