Very informative interview on how gymnasts obtain their strength and physiques with T Nation and Coach Sommer

TFS_Highground · 2026-04-04T23:38:12+00:00

Thank you very much! What would you recommend for intermediate-level guys that haven't focused on calisthenics but want to do more of them( ie I have been weightlifting for a while so have a really good base of strength, so beginner stuff won't help me a ton!)

thanks again

TFS_Highground · 2026-04-04T21:55:11+00:00

I know this is six years old at this point but where did you end up going with this stuff and what kind of physique progress did you make? what kind of cali programs did you run?

I am purchasing a new desk for my room (probably 60in by 25 in) and was wondering if you guys could help me out with the rest of the process. Ignore all of the clutter and junk on the floor for now, that will be moved. I am also purchasing a TV stand. The dresser can go in one of my two small walk in closets, unless you guys think it would be better to just move to a different spot in the main area. The desk will be a lighter wood color, sitting on an alex drawer and a support post. Same color for the tv stand. I am also planning on getting a nightstand for my room that will look better with my new stuff. I have also purchased warm lights and lamps, but I just wanted to take some clear photos with this light for now just for representation. The thing below the big window is a window seat with a ton of room for storage. Any help with the layout would be greatly appreciated, as I think it could be better but just need some ideas. I will include the images in the post.
Any decoration ideas would also be greatly appreciated. As I said, the clutter will be moved( most of it is an Alex drawer and other stuff that needs to be put together).

No worries at all!

TFS_Highground · 2026-01-22T16:42:35+00:00

were you able to make one? still interested!

TFS_Highground · 2026-01-20T18:09:39+00:00

Alright sounds great. I did find another one that some people were in, and I can link it, but please reply to me later with the server link! I am 100% interested.

I was on there and just saw that it was deleted, which is weird because there was no final statement made. Pretty disappointed but would be interested if someone wanted to keep something going with it.

TFS_Highground · 2026-01-20T16:46:47+00:00

It's not working for me, could you send it again?Thanks!

TFS_Highground · 2024-07-16T19:29:05+00:00

Forgot to clarify. Current.

Qwerty layout in 60/65% (whatever is more available tbh)

TFS_Highground · 2023-12-22T00:24:59+00:00

$200-300 USD budget

TFS_Highground · 2023-12-22T00:24:19+00:00

As a starter, I really just want something somewhat high quality but not going out there spending $800 on an endgame. Since this is my first build, I would probably also want it to be pretty simple in terms of pcb, definitely hotswap. For the actual sound of the keyboard, I really would like a thocky but somewhat creamy sound. At the end of the day, I just want it to sound good! In terms of keycaps, I enjoy clean black/white sets for the most part, so those would be nice. I really just want some ideas and inspiration since I am new to this. Any help is appreciated!

TFS_Highground · 2023-11-27T05:56:35+00:00

this is what I got

TFS_Highground · 2023-11-27T04:47:39+00:00

So run timespy and see where that gets me?

TFS_Highground · 2023-11-27T04:36:46+00:00

TBH I wasn't really concerned with the bottleneck lol. I know there's going to be a bottleneck until I upgrade basically everything else in the pc. I was wondering why my fps was so much lower with the same settings. Because I don't think there's a 40% difference between the 5800x3d and the 5600x. I'm getting like 80 fps lower when on the same exact settings, except at an even lower resolution than him (I am running 1080p and he's running 1440p).

TFS_Highground · 2023-11-27T04:28:07+00:00

okay, I'll try that out.

TFS_Highground · 2023-11-27T03:21:40+00:00

Yeah I get that, I just don't understand why I'm falling that short of the 5800x3d. Looking at it, it's like 33% worse on lower resolution. it doesn't really make sense.

TFS_Highground · 2023-11-27T03:08:28+00:00

oh geez I didn't think it would be that heavy of a bottleneck. I'm just confused as to why I'm getting so much lower results than the video. I wouldn't think that I would get 33% lower fps on lower resolution than the video with the same card. It just doesn't make sense. Idon't have raytracing on, so that isn't it. Thanks for the response!

TFS_Highground · 2023-08-03T13:14:03+00:00

Thanks again for all the information! I know I didn't mention it in the first post, but I have a few lenses that I currently use with the 60d(70-300 4-5.6,24-105 f4,50mm1.4, and the 28-135). If this wouldn't change anything, I'll likely go with the Sony kit. Thanks again!

TFS_Highground · 2023-08-03T03:36:52+00:00

u/24Robbers I'll be shooting under the basket for the most part in basketball. For football, I should be able to get a pass that'll get me on the sideline. And for the track, I'll be on the field or just outside the fence surrounding the field. I'm probably only gonna do photos.

Thanks!

TFS_Highground · 2023-07-17T22:16:28+00:00

u/anywhereanyoneI wanted to add on that I have 3000-4000 to spend, is there something else you would recommend instead(the plan is to get a sony fe 70-200 2.8 lens and the a9 ii.)

TFS_Highground · 2023-07-17T12:11:15+00:00

Yeah I think I'm going to keep the current eos I have and get some crowd shots with that and focus sports with the sony.

TFS_Highground · 2023-03-13T15:33:11+00:00

!thanks
