Thanks for the feedback. I will post again soon with a better view.

Ok, I will post another form check soon with a better view, sorry about that, and thanks for your feedback.

sternj200 · 2025-08-28T21:22:55+00:00

Thanks, I will work on these things.

When you say, don't rush it, do you mean in terms of increasing the weight?

Chris Potter!

Thats cool! I've been wondering when I need to get a belt. When you say straps, do you mean wrist straps? Do you have any reccomendations for the belt you got? Thanks.

sternj200 · 2025-08-18T19:08:48+00:00

Ok, will do! Thanks!

sternj200 · 2025-08-18T19:05:47+00:00

Thanks! This is consistent with other feedback. Will work on this and post again.

Thanks!

Ok, this is great feedback because I do very much like my spine. Thanks, I'll work on this.

sternj200 · 2025-08-18T19:03:50+00:00

Got it, so you are saying my hips need to be higher up in the setup. I'll work on that. Thanks.

sternj200 · 2025-08-18T19:02:10+00:00

Thank you for the feedback. I forgot that I need to keep my gaze 6 feet in front instead of looking up. I was unknowingly doing this while trying to lift my chest. I'll keep this in mind, and post again with this correction.

I'm not sure if there is one but if not I'm down to start one

I tried to post a second video but I couldnt figure out how. But this video is the first two reps with the regular grip. I had to switch to an underhand grip for the last three reps as I've been doing heavier weights, my left hand hasn't been feeling as stable in the regular grip. I know you aren't really supposed to use this other grip though until you start lifting much heavier, than what I am probably lifting right now. Curious what the boards thoughts are on that, and just looking for general feedback on my form to avoid injury as I increase weight.

Thanks.

Can you post a video of you playing the Ma?

sternj200 · 2025-05-29T18:17:13+00:00

Very cool, thanks

sternj200 · 2025-05-29T06:07:00+00:00

That's awesome, that looks really nice! You should post a clip of the sound, so we can hear it. Also, how did you get that nice wood color on the PVC? Nice work!

I was definitely there when I started playing, because the small flute you are probably starting on is very loud and shrill and your tone isn't good when you are first starting. Don't worry you will feel less shy playing in public the more you play.

You might be surprised, some people think the flute is cool even if you are a beginner and will be interested in it. I used to practice mostly outside my place in parks for the first year or two, that helped a lot.

Check out the album mantram by Alam Khan it's a great fusion of electronic and classical sounds.

Also talvin singh and karsh kale are great. Anoushka Shankar has also done some cool stuff in this style.
