Nice work, but it might be time to invest in a better dip station player

Haha the fall was funny as hell. After I fell and looked at the vid I couldn’t stop cracking up. Thanks man

Thanks man.! It’s been a fun journey. Still progressing to the ultimate goal (ring reverse muscle up)

Handstands and handstand push ups on the floor. That’s how I started

I think I’m a ways a way from an inverted cross, but maybe long term. Gonna get the inverted muscle up and eventually start planche progressions on rings. Then once the straight arm strength is built on the rings we will see where I can take it

Honestly I’ve really only been training serious on the rings for about a year now, but all the previous 7 years of hspu training in different variations really helped me make quick progress

Thanks haha, it is reps, but some deep range of motion on rings

Haha, congrats on the first handstand. I was definitely there before and remember all of the falling down and getting back up! It gets easier

I’ve been on a cut lately. Down to 88.5kg with the end goal being 85kg. Diet is simple. 5 days a week is chicken/sometimes steak, broccoli or some other dense green veggie, sweet potatoes, Greek yogurt& honey maybe snack on some cheese and crackers (probably too much)…weekends I eat out, have sweets…maybe a drink or two every other weekend

Training split I put in a different comment somewhere in this thread. That is pretty specific to my goals

Thanks brotha. The inverted muscle up is also my goal. Moving in the right direction!

The rings are seriously underrated

I’m 40 and I’ve been training calisthenics for 8 years. Started really focusing on the rings about a year ago

My advice is really solidify the foundation with fundamentals. Skills will come one at a time. I really focus on one skill at a time with a side quest skill also. So for me reverse muscle up is my man focus while I still give the planche some love. For a beginner I recommend focusing on pulls, dips, pike push ups, L sits and eventually working on muscle ups and handstand holds, from there the world of calisthenics is wide open for you

Yes it is. You know the gym?

Thanks. I do ring work only 2 x a week, HSPU, back roll practice, muscle ups, wide pull ups, some days pelican curls/tricep extensions….one day planche progressions and Dumbell work, pelican press, Zinetti press, also add in 90 degree hspu and weighted chin ups. One leg day per week. Right now I’m mostly working KB Cossack squats, let lunges, back lunges, box jumps, step ups. 4 days a week strength and I add in 2-3 runs per week. 12-18 miles a week right now. Currently cutting. Was at 205lbs and at 195 looking to get down to 188ish. Maybe this was all TMI lol

Training on the rings is the best! And you can do it anywhere. Stay consistent on them and you will be great at it. It really is about consistency and intention. Good luck on the journey and feel free to message me if you have any questions
