How many long does it take for the endurance and stamina gains to go away if you do no training?
>>

 No.19064

>>19060
The gains keep running away, slowly but certainly. The longer you rest the further away they get. It's not simply having them or losing them totally.

From my experience it's easier to get them back if you already had them though, it's like your body is already trained to get there.

Fitanons, how do I keep my heels grounded when doing closing bridges? I cheated my way to learning them by standing up on my tiptoes to move my center of mass further forward, and now it seems impossible to do them with proper heels-on-floor form. Is my back just not flexible enough or is my posterior chain still not strong enough?

It's a slang for simple carbs that take a very short time to break down and enter your system, so you have an instant spike in calories/energy without feeling satiated. Whereas complex carbs are gradually processed by your body over a span of a few hours.

Both are useful, depending on what you want to achieve. But if you're trying to lose fat then simple carbs should be avoided, except maybe post-workout (in combination with protein) to give your body instant energy for muscle repair.

I’ve been doing gymnastics a good portion of my life. Front handspring is harder than back handspring and that goes for flips too. Start with the back handspring. You can progress up to it by starting with a twisting back cartwheel kind of thing and gradually start facing more and more forwards when you do it. One thing that helps is to let your hands guide the movement, have your body just follow your hands all the way to the ground. Throw your hands back and follow them
>>

 No.19261

>>19260
I've heard many people recommend this kind of progression but I can't seem to get past a certain degree of contortion between a cartwheel and a back handspring. Being strong enough now to do full stand-to-stand bridges but somehow still not being able to do handsprings is really frustrating.

Been working out for the last two months. Slowly loosing weight.

I run high intensity on the treadmill at the gym for about 30 minutes and make sure I get no less than 10 minutes of high speed sprinting in; Usually between 5.0 - 6.0 for all around 10 minutes. Then I hit the bike machine for about 15 minutes.

My biggest flaw is my diet. I try and keep a HGH carb low fat diet with around 1,500 1,600 calories per day. Some how I seem to be platueing with my weight loss. Advice?

Currently tracking on par with the recommended progression of 2.5kg and 5kg (upper body and lower body respectively) per 3 week cycle.

My legs and back have always been better due to a mix of sports, and posture exercise in teen years.

Whew, old thread but a new update, comrades. Last year I met three long-term fitness goals! I attained my goal of ten one-arm pushups in a row, I do them every time I exercise now. I can finally do completely straight dragon flags from top to ground and am slowly replacing my old leg lift sets with them. And finally, after aspiring towards it most of my adult life, I got the side splits. Turns out most of the time I was simply training for it wrong.

I'm feeling like I need to set some new calisthenic goals for myself but I haven't decided what to work on next. Some options:
-get more serious about handstand pushup progression again
-develop that press to L-sit/V-sit to handstand movement thing
-decide to leave humanity behind and develop the planche

Problem is some of these tend to focus on using a set of bars or something else to elevate your hands from the floor at first. I don't have any of that equipment and might be making things too difficult for myself reaching directly for the ground-based versions. What do you think comrades?

I don't know body-builder lingo, so i have no clue what you are talking about, but if you want to do reduce the difficulty of a work-out on the ground where you use gravity as resistance, try using pillows.

>>20066
L-sit related movements are easier to do with your hands on parallel bars or blocks because the added elevation leaves more open air underneath for your legs to move around. If you want to do these sorts of things on a level surface, you need to have even tighter core and leg strength or compensate by supporting your body weight on your fingertips so you can arch you hands up and give yourself a few more inches of height to work it.

I already do fingertip pushups regularly, but holding an L-sit on fingertips for more than a few seconds is extreme.
