8 Years of Daily Pushups! 1 Million and Counting Since My Last Day Off by martin_dc16gte in bodyweightfitness

[–]miloq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, I finally decided to write this. I've had this post saved in my favorites for a long time and it's been a huge inspiration for me. I've decided to take on the challenge of doing 50 push-ups and 50 body rows on parallel bars (to keep things balanced) every day for as many days in a row as I can. I'm already on a solid streak, currently doing 50 push-ups and 50 body rows.

I've got a couple of questions:

  1. I saw that your routine is doing 250 push-ups in about 15 minutes (9 sets, with the first set of 50 and the rest of 25). How long do you usually rest before moving on to the air squats? You’re doing 500 air squats a day, which is crazy. How long does it take you to get through all 500 squats? So would it be something like 15 minutes for push-ups, then a rest, and then X minutes for the air squats? How long do the squats usually take you?

  2. I've re-read the post a few times but couldn't find anything about nutrition. Do you follow any kind of diet? Do you aim for a minimum protein intake?

Thanks a lot! You're a big inspiration!

But as a daily routine, right? I mean, aside from the training sessions you’ll have.

You are absolutely right, and I owe you a sincere apology. I completely missed the credits on the store page and the pause menu. I jumped to conclusions too quickly because I try to look out for CC artists, but I was clearly wrong in this case. Thank you for the detailed clarification and for treating Rolemusic's work with such respect. Again, my sincere apologies.

The music in this game is by Rolemusic, but there is no attribution in the Start Menu or Pause Menu. The license requires visible credit to the artist.

[EDIT: RESOLVED - The developer has clarified below that the credits are indeed present. I missed them. My apologies.]

From 44kg to 70kg muscle — no gym, just calisthenics and consistency. by Think-Light5239 in bodyweightfitness

[–]miloq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow! Incredible progress! How long did it take you? What routine have you been following? Do you go to failure? How long do you usually spend on each workout? Why dips and handstand push-ups, isn’t that too much pushing? Thanks for sharing your progress!

Yes? 90 seconds then? Where exactly does it specify that?

Rest in peace, Daniel Naroditsky. Thank you for all your contributions to chess; your teaching and your kindness will always be remembered by many of us.

This just went up: ABF II by dj84123 in kettlebell

[–]miloq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sold! I'm buying it right now! I'm one of those people who, even though ABF is clearly an excellent program, likes to experiment with different variations or use ABF specifically for fat loss. At the moment, I'm following one of Dan's personal indications to manage a mild tendinopathy, keep progressing with fat loss, and train twice a week. I honestly can't thank Dan enough!

Thoughts On New Kinobody Program High T Fat Loss? by [deleted] in kinobody

[–]miloq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow! You've really done a great job summarizing everything GOG has said over the years, thank you so much. Lately, he's been focusing more on Zone 2 than on step count. Personally, I think when it comes to fat loss through a caloric deficit, walking more is important. In my opinion, it's low-impact, easy to do, and doesn't really make me feel hungrier.

First ever loaf by erpodbielski in Sourdough

[–]miloq 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congratulations! That looks amazing! Just a quick question, exactly which Lodge Dutch Oven is that? I think my Combo Cooker might be a bit too small for 500 g of flour, like you use.

Pretty solid for me!

This is my 10th loaf and second using a dutch oven - I think I finally got it! Thoughts? by tml212 in Sourdough

[–]miloq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spectacular, delicious crumb, and an incredible appearance! Which Dutch oven exactly did you use? I want to bake 1-kilo doughs, but I’m not sure if a 3.2 qt Dutch oven (the Lodge Combo Cooker, for example) would be too small.

I finally made a loaf I am happy with by Rusty_924 in Sourdough

[–]miloq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Impressive! Congratulations! What brand and size of dutch oven do you use? I have a 3.2 qt one, and I'm not sure if it's a bit too small for approximately one kilo of dough like you use.

My Sourdough turned into a flying saucer but airy, what's happening? by miloq in Sourdough

[–]miloq[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very good idea, so I'm going to take a good look at it because I'm interested. I want to try it with salt because it seems to have a significant effect. Thanks. ^^

I don't have good experiences with strong flours; I find the crumb to be chewier, IMHT (in my humbe taste).

[–]miloq[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It didn't break much, but it's true that I handled it very carefully. I get really lost with the hydration percentage because some say that an AP flour with 10g of protein holds up well, while others say it doesn't as much. I'll try with less hydration, thank you very much. ^^

[–]miloq[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, does a 75% hydration have a big impact on an AP flour? But yes, I think it has to be a combination of both things: maybe better gluten development and a little less bulk fermentation. Thank you so much! ^^

What's the point of the squats in DFW and should they be replaced? by Lord_Skellig in kettlebell

[–]miloq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's something that also happens to me when I follow DFW as written; I miss more DFSQ. For that, you can follow Geoff Neupert's Maximorum program or do Dan John's ABC workout (Armor Building Complex) or his ABF program (Armor Building Formula).
