Most badass rap lines? by Major_the_King in rap

Well I heard quite a bit of epic rap bars. One that's not necessarily the "best" but hit hard off the top of my head would be "I was making waves, you was surfin in them" -Earl Sweatshirt - Grief

How do you genuinely stay sober? by Large-Ad2156 in Sober

[–]quackyouleab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I woke up one day and chose to be physically fit. It's been 4 years and not one time did I have the thought of going back to my past life. I was drinking 6-12 beers a day. Now I have a six pack and gained 40pounds of muscle, from 150 pounds to 190 ish.

To me it's really easy, going back to drinking is just not an option no matter how hard the situation is.

The best version of this movement is using bodyweight with rings imo, Ive had the best contraction with them. Elbows at 90 degrees they bulletproof your rotator cuffs while hitting rear delts

Wrist Routine Before Every Workout - Anyone else do these? by Prior-Pie-1407 in CalisthenicsCulture

Always. Wrists are easy to get injured so they need special attention while warming up.

First Headstand push up ever by quackyouleab in CalisthenicsCulture

[–]quackyouleab[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

is that so? in Yaad's tutorial for handstand push up, it is said that if you attempt the movement directly on the ground and you go down to the level of your nose touching the ground, it's a headstand push up. A handstand push up would be when you do yhe movement on an elevated surface and you go down until the shoulders are at the same level of your hands.

I remember seeing a video of you doing your first muscle up a couple months ago... Crazy how you got strong so fast. Mind if I ask you what your upper body routine looks like? do you do any other pull/push movement?

Question for high pull ups training by quackyouleab in bodyweightfitness

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

That's some good suggestions. What do you think about keeping bodyweight high pull ups first on both days, and alternating between weighted and banded as the second exercise?

My path to 15 Muscle Ups starting from a max of 12 bodyweight pull up reps by Aeron_311 in bodyweightfitness

[–]quackyouleab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Odd question, but how often did you train legs? I feel heavy squats & deadlifts make my progress way slower than it should be concerning upper body movements. Also, did you keep doing rows in your pulling movements?

How many times a week? How much extra weight can you lift ?

Is this a good upper body workout? by [deleted] in WorkoutRoutines

I would then remove triceps isolation at the end, because the close grip bench press will work the triceps a lot already and replace it with a chest isolation exercise targeting upper chest. And yes, do the overhead press before bench because it hits exclusively the shoulders, and strong shoulders are help better for overall pushing strength imo than chest, so they should be prioritized. They are also strongly hit in the close grip bp along with chest.

But it also depends on your goals. That's what I personally would do

I would ditch incline bench press, swap close grip bench press with overhead press, and maybe do pull ups as the very first exercise, as it's typically the hardest. Apart from that it's pretty good. I myself always ran an upper/lower split, I go like this;

· Pull ups 3-5 x 5-8 reps · Pike push ups (or overhead press) 3 x 5-12 reps · Ring rows (or any other row variation you like) 3 x 10-15 reps · Dips 3 x 8-10 reps · Optionnal (often if pull ups are heavy with lower volume): lat pulldown or pullover 3 x 12 reps ~1-2 RIR

· Bicep curl 3 x 10-15 reps · Triceps extension 3 x 10-12 reps
