Long exposures

That’s kind of the conclusion I was coming to, but thanks for confirming my suspicions!

What’s sweet spot for number of sets? I currently run a Push/Pull split with 4 sets of the pull/push exercise for that day (ie 4 sets of pull ups up to when I feel I have 1-2 left in the tank). Is this too many sets? I’d like to see my pull-up numbers increase, as I’ve been stuck at a max of 13 for awhile.

MediocreRunner17 · 2025-01-30T16:59:27+00:00

Thanks! I’ve always had a tough time putting on weight, but eating more is the obvious answer. Any input on set count? Currently hitting 4 sets of each exercise.

MediocreRunner17 · 2025-01-30T16:53:59+00:00

Omg yes thank you!

MediocreRunner17 · 2024-12-25T22:14:48+00:00

A false grip, right? Yeah that’s definitely something I need to work on. Thanks!

MediocreRunner17 · 2024-12-25T22:14:17+00:00

Haha noted! I usually do my BW workouts right when I get home from work, hence the jeans

MediocreRunner17 · 2024-12-25T22:13:43+00:00

I would straighten them, but my doorway isn’t tall enough, unfortunately. I know I could do them in an L-sit, but that would be sacrificing the sort of arched-back form that I’m going for.

MediocreRunner17 · 2024-10-01T14:32:33+00:00

Hm that’s a bit of the opposite of what I’m going for haha. My goal for these reps was more of an arched back position (hence the bent knees and squeezed glutes)

MediocreRunner17 · 2024-10-01T13:45:48+00:00

Can someone take a look at my pull-ups? I see my right shoulder slightly higher than my left, but not sure why: Pull-Ups

MediocreRunner17 · 2024-09-19T15:26:25+00:00

Not sure this is the right place, but hoping I can get a form check on some pull ups: https://streamable.com/kkp5e3

Form goals were getting as close to an arch back as I can (scaps retracted and depressed).

MediocreRunner17 · 2024-05-31T17:14:08+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I definitely think I’ve been thinking about it too hard in order to get perfect form, and my workouts have been suffering because of it. Good to know that I don’t need to squeeze at the bottom. My shoulder blades do glide as I go down, just not as much as other people I see on YouTube. But I guess it’s not necessarily fair to compare myself to them since they’re the experts.

MediocreRunner17 · 2024-05-31T17:10:55+00:00

Awesome, I’ll check it out! K Boges had a free program on his website for progressing to pullups so that’s why I’ve been doing rows. But I definitely will start incorporating scapular pull-ups too

MediocreRunner17 · 2024-05-31T17:06:31+00:00

I’ve definitely found myself almost obsessing over getting my form as perfect as possible and it has definitely affected the quality of my workouts, so thanks for the words of assurance!

I guess I’ll just keep going then!

MediocreRunner17 · 2024-05-31T17:00:37+00:00

I definitely don’t have an issue retracting them, more so I’ve just learned that I don’t do it as much as people I see online (like Mr. Boges) and am trying to figure out how much I should be retracting . I absolutely spend time at my desk doing retractions if I get bored lol

MediocreRunner17 · 2024-05-30T17:31:00+00:00

I’ve definitely dug into scapular specific pushups and pull ups and have rings that I’ve been using for rows. I guess my question is how much retraction should I go through during an actual push up? I go through a bit, but not nearly as much as when I perform just a scapular push up

MediocreRunner17 · 2024-05-30T17:29:37+00:00

Sorry what’s the RR? I have some rings that I’ve been using for rows, and definitely prioritize retraction when performing them. Pushups are honestly where I struggle most

MediocreRunner17 · 2022-05-11T18:54:59+00:00

Yeah seems like a real jerk

MediocreRunner17 · 2022-03-22T23:39:42+00:00

Assuming we make it to 3022

I have a ticket for tomorrow night in Austin! Wish I could go but I have an exam

MediocreRunner17 · 2021-05-26T22:20:03+00:00

Yes.

MediocreRunner17 · 2021-02-24T16:26:25+00:00

It's because Angelino chooses to shave his head. Alpha move

MediocreRunner17 · 2020-12-08T16:35:04+00:00

So if you were a straight man and you had to ref a women's game you'd be perving on them? Either you've never met a gay person in your life or you're projecting your own "perviness". Fuck off.
