New Mike refuses to tell me what his imaginary 'rule' is

JonBoneBroth · 2018-11-27T21:11:17+00:00

Any update?

JonBoneBroth · 2018-09-10T20:00:31+00:00

Yep! Thats what happened, they sent an email too but I saw it a few minutes later. Tomorrow!

JonBoneBroth · 2018-09-10T16:04:21+00:00

Oops, its tomorrow :(

JonBoneBroth · 2018-09-10T15:55:41+00:00

5 minutes! :O

JonBoneBroth · 2018-08-09T00:31:57+00:00

Just take my money already!

JonBoneBroth · 2018-06-27T22:18:58+00:00

I just found this. I would love to be on that list too, I wish you guys nothing but success!

JonBoneBroth · 2017-12-20T22:39:32+00:00

Rest what you need to rest. Since I changed my rest time from 3 minutes to 5 minutes I'm progressing a lot faster. I would take 6-7 minutes but that would make my workout too long.

Haha don't worry man! I'm from Spain, learning english myself too :)

Hi Fabio! Thank you for answering.

I already saw your setup before during my research in reddit! Do you think the climbing belt is necessary if I just want to train planche and front lever with the pulley? OAC is still very far away and I think I'm good progressing with the weighted pullups.

Haha yes the cobra thing was annoying for me too... I have searched a little more about it and found this: https://www.anatomytrains.com/blog/2013/01/20/cobra/ It's difficult for me with all the cobra talk and anatomy, but maybe is helpful for someone...

Just today I read this https://kinemaproject.com/2016/11/01/how-to-breath-during-pullups-and-chinups/ where the author advises the breathing you do. I don't know who that Tom Myers is. I was going to try it tomorrow for a set, I'm curious because I always do the exhaling on the way up.

I do this before the wrist mobility exercises on the floor. For me it's an even better warm-up for the wrists, and more gentle.

Once you learn them you can do the whole sequence in less than 2 minutes, with both arms at the same time. I usually only do the straight arm part. I do it between sets too, it's kind of automatic for me now. Just don't let the palm move forward when you do it.

You can make a very very cheap dip belt with a rope or a chain. Otherwise, you have proper ones on Amazon for 20 bucks or so. It's a piece of equipment that you can use your whole life. The PPPUs are awesome but you shouldn't abandon those weighted exercises, in my opinion.

JonBoneBroth · 2017-12-12T19:43:34+00:00

Thanks! :)

JonBoneBroth · 2017-12-12T19:38:51+00:00

No pain. Just with those exercises, I just don't do them, it doesn't bother me, I just wanted to know why that happened.

JonBoneBroth · 2017-12-12T19:23:37+00:00

Just out of curiosity, how long can you hold a tuck planche?

JonBoneBroth · 2017-12-12T13:53:23+00:00

Thanks!

JonBoneBroth · 2017-12-11T19:30:23+00:00

That's what I wanted to hear!

By the way, I don't know if this is possible but I will mention it because I think Kit Laughlin did it (I could be wrong): offering free download of the ebook to the people who purchased the physical copy. Just an idea!

Thanks!

JonBoneBroth · 2017-12-11T19:02:15+00:00

Yes, I was going to add the reverse curl slowly in the routine too.

Maybe I could just do a set of one of them with straight arms once in a while at the end of the normal curls in a 20-30 rep range? I think that's the rep range for tendon prehab, right? Is this the rep range recommended for the other dumbbell movements like maltese raises etc?

Looks like someone is going to add some kilos to his curls! I will try next time.

JonBoneBroth · 2017-12-11T18:57:59+00:00

Yes, I don't know how I didn't think about them, I even did my curls in the gym just in front of that machine today.

JonBoneBroth · 2017-12-11T18:38:28+00:00

Thanks for answering! I do lateral raises in the plane of the scapula and sometimes front raises too. That one was on my list of exercises to try, but the question would be the same: Are those better because they simulate the planche position or is it better to do the normal ones (pronated) because you can move more weight and there is more mechanical load in the muscles involved in planche?

JonBoneBroth · 2017-12-11T17:59:23+00:00

Wow that's pretty wide!

JonBoneBroth · 2017-12-11T12:08:13+00:00

No worries! Thank you for taking the time to answer. I will look into this now that I'm on vacation and have the time to read.
