@staxx Do you do inverted rows by chance? The Nerdfitness link discusses these. You can do them off a dining table for instance. They will help tremendously
@twinmama I have tried doing them with furniture like a table but it seems like my cheap Ikea furniture is not stable enough to feel secure, haha. I did do some searching just now and found an idea of using a broom between two chairs so I'll try that!
@staxx That will work! Be certain to secure it, don't want you slipping off. As another user commented as well, a local park is a great option if you have one available
@staxx You can also search for calisthenics parks. Some cities have little calisthenics set ups in parks or along trails. Maybe less likely to be populated than a playground
@twinmama This is so very thorough. Kudos @twinmama!
And thank you for calling out the assisted pull-up machine. It is not your friend & will not get most (I’m sure there are exceptions) people to a strict pull-up. Yes...I’m still annoyed I wasted 6 weeks last year on them hoping for improvement.
@markinsydney Indeed! I progressed much faster once I ditched it. I’m finally at sets of 10 unweighted & 5 weighted, no thanks at all to the assisted pull-up machine
