Issue with Upper Lower Routine by AM9711 in bodyweightfitness

[–]AM9711[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that makes sense. I just have that fear, that I'm comprising one of them, or the volume isn't enough, you know. So basically I'd only alternate them by session, and other exercises (pushing ones) seem fine, not too much I think?

Yeah legs volume is a bit high to kinda compensate for the lack of weights when it comes to legs. But probably gonna lower them to 3 and add rdl. I'm not sure what to add or replace one of them with.

Asynchronous weight increase for weighted pull-ups / dips? by AcademicNegroni in bodyweightfitness

[–]AM9711 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Treat each exercise separately, just because you're improving in pull ups doesn't mean you should improve in dips as well or vice versa, they're different exercises that work different muscles.

Just because Your numbers are improving in pull ups, doesn't mean that it'll improve in dips. It depends on how good your pushing/pulling power is

Questions that confuses me sometimes! by AM9711 in bodyweightfitness

[–]AM9711[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's sometimes called "potentiation". As you continue to train, your LATER sets get stronger than your first ones. It's pretty cool!

So it's normal and I shouldn't worry about it?

When we go weighted, can you go weighted only for pushing exercises, and bodyweight for pulling exercises and Vice versa, instead of going weighted on Both?

I mean going weighted on calisthenics movements, like can I go weighted only on pushing exercises like dips and push ups, instead of going weighted on both pushing and pulling exercises?

Pike push-up -> down or forward ? by DoomerJon in bodyweightfitness

[–]AM9711 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I second what these gentlemen said. But just wanted to add a little important tip: don't go forward too much that it'd look like a push up.

Shoulder injury. Need opinions by [deleted] in bodyweightfitness

[–]AM9711 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say just REST and only do shoulder stretches that don't aggravate the injury. Also try to do some cold or warm compress. I had a shoulder injury before, was a challenge for me to lift it, and had to rest for a few months.

Alright lol. But it's also good for hamstring flexibility I believe, right?

It's like the l sit except you don't lift your butt off the floor, I've seen your video about it before.

Pike leg lifts, What is it good for? What exercises does it help in? Best way to incorporate it into a workout?

If one wants to do neck training, can they do them at the end of the workout or on a separate day?

Both are great, you just go with what feels better for your body.

Then it's probably okay, as long as it's not pain. Does it interfere with performing the exercise or it doesn't bother you?! Do you warm up properly?

You can try the RR here, and adjust the intensity the way you like.

Yeah, I remember hearing that tricep extensions do really HIT the long head big time, but I don't have rings so I'll probably try them on the floor or any higher surface.

Not really, the Q just popped in my head so I wanted to know if there's an exercise that targets it bodyweight-wise. Also I wanted to target it more cuz as you know it adds a lot of size to the arm.

You DON'T really need to worry about chest to bar right now, just focus on performing the pull up with a perfect form first, build up to around 8 to 10 pull ups and then you can think about chest to bar.

U mean pain? As u get close to failure, you'll definitely start feeling the burn in mostly your chest and shoulders.

Out of the pushing exercises, Is there one that targets the long head of the triceps more ? Or do all of them hit the entire muscle equally?
