Left side is the exercise, right side is the mobility for that exercise, you do mobility after each set
FSAS - Fundamental Straight Arm Strength FBAS - Fundamental Bent Arm Strength FLS - Fundamental Leg Strength
the numbers like 5x60s means mastery for the movement, in this case you look at 60s/60rep template and follow that progression, once you hit mastery (can do 5x60s) you move to the next level
for negative movements, 5x5x10s means you descend for 10s each rep
>SL SL progression seems to be different from PDF's
>Working on wall handstands >Acclimated to blood rushing to head >Elbows locked, joints "stacked", hips not sagging >Can't make it past 30secs because pressure builds in right armpit It's not a lack of strength, I think it may be a blood vessel(not the brachial artery) that's not used to being inverted. Wtf should I do, is this normal?
Oliver Young
Can you guys critique my routine? Keep in mind that I've been lifting for about a year now with free weights and machines; I've switched over to a bodyweight-focused routine in order to improve my overall body control while making some gains in the process.
Pull day: Front lever row 3x4 Pull ups 3x12 Close grip chin ups 3x12 Neutral grip pull ups 3x12 Phorm pull ups 3x5 Supinated Australians 3x12 Dumbbell curls 3x12
I lower the reps by 2 for each set that I do 12 reps on initially. Then I train core and legs the day after. Sunday's my rest day.
>pic related is my goal physique
All criticism is welcome.
Thanks.
Zachary Taylor
just got done with /fat/, how often does this general show up?
Hudson Nguyen
Where's the legs?
Isaac Jones
Whats your actual goal? I feel like if i offer any sound advice youll over look it due to your immaturity.
Kayden Turner
My push up progression right now is at decline diamond push-ups and archer push ups, what's next?
I can do around 10-12 reps of those.
Elijah Campbell
Okay.....please be more specific. Are you looking for a push-up progression, or looking to increase your push-ups?
Chase Wright
Looking to increase push up progression.. basically the end goal is one armed push up. Right now I can't do incline one arm.. the most I can do is one arm on a sofa and the other arm pushing.
I can do 12 reps of that too.
Carter Rodriguez
If possible a video would be cool. Im not too familiar on one arm push-up progression, but you could try working negatives, but if you can't control it for a 5 second negative i would choose i different progression.
Jace Sanchez
Negatives sounds like a good idea, I would try it when I get home later.
Austin Edwards
Will dragon flags also strengthen obliques and lumbar erector spinae to a decent degree?
Camden Myers
kinda. Why did you just want to do nothing but dragon flags for core?
James Gutierrez
If it's not dangerous or ineffective I would certainly like too. I've been doing Scooby's Rotisserie Core routine since I started 4 months ago and I am both horribly bored of planks and desiring a more dynamic challenge to strengthen my entire core. Plus it'll save me 8 minutes on my workout time, which would be nice for those days I'm stretched for free time.
Kayden Moore
Very frequently. Sometimes there's a small gap between /bwg/'s
Carson Richardson
you fool, more mass equals more gains with bodyweight
Evan Price
Ideally you want to work the core strength, as well as endurance. depending on how strong you are you could do somthing like the following. Depends how much time you have too.
1.Strength work Dragon flags single leg planks side plank leg raises
2.endurance work planks side plank reverse plank hollow hold superman
Theres also dynamic core work you can work in too.
Zachary Brown
For legs I just do machine work. I also workout my core after doing legs.
To achieve a physique similar to my OP pic while simultaneously being able to move my body around in a more natural and impressive way.
>immaturity
Is it because I chose an anime character's physique as my goal?
Evan Myers
Alright, I'll give this a run for a couple weeks and see how it works. Thanks!
Blake Anderson
youtube.com/watch?v=PkTf9TUIUcU Impossible dip form check???? I feel like i am cheating in my second rep. Is that still a real impossible dip? Is the first one a real impossible dip? I and doing partial reps at the moment because im just getting started.
Eli Smith
once you can lean your elbows all the way on the bar, and you can keep the tilt, thats when you know youll have it.
Jeremiah Hall
are you trying to do russian dip?
Carter King
Impossible dip, not Russian dip. Russian dip is easy for me.
In a Russian dip your jerk yourself forward and put your bodyweight in front. In an impossible dip you extend your arm from the bottom position while keeping your bodyweight leaning back. The difference in difficulty is exponential.
Parker Rogers
a good skill to aim for, I suppose
Aiden Carter
Which push up variant would work the pecs hardest??
Nolan Baker
archer though I do get chest gains from dips
Carson Ross
If I buy one of these what are the chances that I'll injure myself
Gavin Mitchell
I mean, id say its fine for pullups. Fuck anything else on it tho
Angel Nguyen
It loosens with time, so you should keep tightening it regularly. I learned the hard way, as it detached once, and I went down on my back. No injuries, only slight pain.
Jaxon Foster
I've seen people do circles with their legs at the bottom of a dragon flag or moving from side to side. I've only done normal dragon flags and they won't help you with obliques.
Lincoln Johnson
>only slight pain
Happened to me. It's not slight pain. It is not slight pain.
Luis Miller
Extremely high, even if you screw it into the door frame, had one collapse on me, it suddenly bent in the middle, took me down and dragged the screws through the frame for like half a meter, like I landed on my knees.
Wasn't even that fat or muscular back then.
Get you one of those, pic related, I use one now without even attaching it to the frame, you just put onto the top of the frame and BAM, physics and static forces keep it in place, you finish and just pick it up and put it somewhere,
Just make sure the frame matches the dimensions of the bar so it fits snugly, even if it doesn't you can still use it though.
Daniel Rodriguez
I would get one of those, but the problem is that my door frames are less than half an inch
Ayden Moore
Did the exact thing, and bought one just like your pic probably same one, unfortunately I have to use a door frame that is kind of far out of the way to use.
Cooper Evans
Hey, man,I've seen you do planches. Can you help me out?? I do tuck planche. Everything is OK. Immediately after I lift my hands of the ground I get pain in my forearm. Google shows that it's common to get pain in forearm, and some people said to rest, other said that I need to strengthen my forearms and there were many other recommendations. But I want to ask you cause I know you have experience with this exercise. So have you ever gotten pain from planche work?
Isaiah Miller
Yeah actually I have gotten pain in my forearm before, hut I remember it just went away over time.
Nicholas Bell
Looking to increase my pullup/chinup reps. Should I do GtG or add weight?
Wyatt Cook
I know there is at least one other user who does the Stretching of Gymnastic Bodies. To that user, how do you do pic related. My problem is that I can hold it for 40-60 seconds. After that it's hard for me to keep my rear leg straight up. It wants to slide on the wall. For instance if the left leg is against the wall it wants to slide to the right. And if the right leg is against the wall it wants to slide to the left.
Kevin Garcia
What should I buy to use as increased elevation for deep step-ups/shrimp squats? I'm at the point where I can do proper shrimp squats all day and I'm looking to increase difficulty. What kind of boxes do you guys use?
Aiden Hernandez
follow the appropriate rep mastery from foundation, depending where you want to end up
Parker Adams
What are you supposed to do after hips off the bench dragon flags are too easy?
Adam Thomas
Try being tense when stretching instead of relaxed.
Easton Flores
got links to the foundation PDFs?
James Long
Try dynamic planks. Get into a plank position (hands, not forearms) then alternate touching one knee to your elbow for 1 minute. rest, repeat X3
Christopher Wilson
For context, Weightlifter fag (clean and jerk and snatch). I am working on holding planches for more than a second or two at a time, can already do front levers. I am looking for more difficult core exercises, or ways to make the hard ones (dragon flag, front lever, planches) more difficult. More variety too would be good I suppose, I don't know a ton of bodyweight exercises other than the popular ones.
Christian Lee
I remember being tense when I notice my leg falling to the side. Gonna try to stay tensed from the very beginning of the exercise. thnks for the idea.
yeah they are in the OP
Henry Kelly
most simple solution, put weight on legs for dragon flags or progress in Manna
Jackson Fisher
Wanted to get back into the body weight game after a year long relapse. What are some great body weight routines?
Evan Jenkins
>dragon flags Here are some harder variations Dragon flags with elevated shoulders and straight arms. Vertical Dragon flags (no bending of the elbow) youtube.com/watch?v=g-l_ibujaWw
Adrian Brown
for the foundation routine when do i do the pushup and the handstand variations?
Luke Watson
>doesn't read OP >asks for shit that is in OP never change fatso when you are supposed to? idk what is the question
Luke Rivera
Hey guys, can I get some critique on my routine please?
Ryan Williams
Foundation gives 3 routines: >AxBxAxx >ABxABxx >ABABAxx A: FL, sPL, HBP, RC B: MN, SL, SLS where's the push ups and handstands?
Adam Edwards
Push ups are part of HBP in day A. Handstands are done separately and they can be done either 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 days in a week, according to Foundation.
Isaiah Flores
what about the wrist pushup, knuckle pushup, and fingertip?
Colton Price
It goes like this. 4 wrist stretches after that >wrist pushup, knuckle pushup, and fingertip? after that HS
I do it like this and also see results 4 wrist stretches after that HS
in the weekend I do >wrist pushup, knuckle pushup, and fingertip?
Luis Thompson
btw why don't you download the pdf? It has good videos
Asher Sanders
Instead of having your arms behind your head try having them in front of it in a dragon flag.
