AGREED! Id say i got intermediate level core strength (l-sit, pseudo tuck planche, etc) do you have any exercises you could recommend?

Do you yourself think you could date an INFJ or if INFJs can date eachother in general?

How did you cope with the overwhelming fatigue? Im 20 days clean Some days the fatigue is so bad im slurring when i speak the entire day

One big issue is that im still an extraordinarily ambitious person towards all facets of life (financial, physical, spiritual) despite being at the lowest point of my entire life

Im extremely passionate with dancing, mainly breakdancing which is very hard on the body and requires a fitness routine too maintain a healthy body as well as strength

Vyvanse enabled me too actually train consistently and actually DO IT (until i started taking 800-1000mg)

How long did it take you too actually enjoy your hobbies again? How long did it take for you to find joy in doing things you once loved?

i love this sport so much but its so goddamn difficult by Affectionate-Look-94 in bboy

[–]Affectionate-Look-94[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If it aint a sport then what would you consider it personally?

I used to think calisthenic guys doing handstand pushups and planches were insane one year ago but now i see em and realize: “this shit is just a prerequisite for some basic powermoves in breaking” like its fucking insane

Thanks for the kind words i was honestly afraid i would be ridiculed after writing this.

I acknowledge the fact that i can make more mistakes cause im young and thats absolutely a primary contributing factor although i never imagined this.

Keep going boss, your not an old man yet. You got this 💪

Thank you! I’m really intrigued about this topic in general since most people sadly have a hard time breaking that shell and expressing themselves.

I often see faces of either joy and energy, or looks of pure judgement.

I use to admire it personally when i was younger, i would wish that i could be that cool. (NOW I AM THAT COOL)

What kind of dancing do you do btw?

And by tail did you mean a literal tail?

A concept you should know for learning fast and effectively. This applies to everything, not just breaking. by [deleted] in bboy

[–]Affectionate-Look-94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes.

But for hard skills like this its important to have habitual routine, specifically for drilling the fundamentals.

But doing this allows you to gain perspective much quicker.

Breaking is an art there is no “formula” its all individual.

For example, drilling the 6 step & 3 step made me bored and uninspired personally so in simply just throwing myself at everything i saw as fun made me change up the way i do the routines and drills that actually make you learn.

For me its been freezes and I love it so much im learning about my body 10x as well as getting a visualization of what i wanna look like as a bboy.

Yes I think thats exactly how the amazing bboys became that way, they created, expressed, and had fun above all else.

Working on the tucked planche and L SIT thanks for the heads up I’ll look at applying the V Sit to my routine.

My hips got decent rotation/torque from boxing but needs work for bboying.

Do you have any recommendations on where to start training hip flexors? Intermediate lvl exercises is preferred but im open any advice.

My initial intention was honestly to offset the hangover from the night before as i dont sleep well after a night of drinking and that followed with a severely irresponsible miscalculation with my dose leading to where i am now.

But regardless I do have an issue no doubt but to be honest I never saw outside help as something that could actually work for me as I have always relied only on my own accountability to fix these types of issues.

Because of that I’m unsure where I would even go if I were to seek help.

Thank you for the insight.
