It used to be hosted on eatmoveimprove but I guess it split off. Anyway, it's just a lot of practice and repetition Other sources can give a lot more information/more accurate information than I so I won't go into technique. | ||

Yeah, Chris has decided to pursue his own business ventures (namely the HS article and thus the HS stuff was moved there) but he is still part of EMI. Regardless, yeah the HS article is a good way for people to get started. And yes, for those doing stomach to wall learn to roll out or how to bail before doing any extended work in HS | ||

I've noticed that I need additional equipment for exercises such as the l-sit or the backlever. Is bodyweight training something that could be done with simply exercises like the handstand, pushups, pullups, etc? What are other exercises I could do? No, L-sit can be done on the ground and back lever on a bar. Read this article: http://www.eatmoveimprove.com/2010/03/the-fundamentals-of-bodyweight-strength-training/ | ||

I have been doing the 5x5 SS program for roughly 4 months but in that 4 months I took some breaks here and there. Doing the program for that long I did see progress for the first 2 months then after that I haven't really seen anything after that. So I think its time for me to do split routines now. As a beginner of split routines can someone give me pointers.. Which days to do what, how to combine them appropriately etc. | ||

Changing your routine won't make you improve. Being more consistent will. /end real talk | ||

Weird thing was I was just kicking up to practice a little bit on the sideline at ultimate and I tried watching the game while inverted. Instantly felt more aware of my balance than when I look at the ground normally, which seems counter-intuitive but I'll take it. It may just be getting my head in a better position. Yeah, head in seems to work better for some people. I prefer head out just enough so you can see the ground out of the top of your eyes. Head out so you're looking directly at the ground is way too much for anyone really. | ||

Basically you should never have kinks in your spine when doing anything that requires strength and/or coördination. Kelly Starret basically made his career on this subject, so if you want to delve deeper look at/read some of his stuff. | ||

I also just realized again yesterday that you can do so much stuff with Push-Ups. They surely have their limitations, but if you focus on good form and some more difficult variations, you can really do lots of good stuff with those. Still, I would like to have a Dip-Station in my flat, but I don't know where to put it. I don't think my chairs are made for that, at least not for weighted Dips. I wish could Squat again, but maybe that majorly expensive acupuncture is gonna help. | ||

 Anecdotally I've had acupuncture help with stuff, hope it improves for you (quad right?)Is there a major drawback to doing l-sit/frog stand every day or even a couple times a day? I'm thinking it's more skill work but I'm not that advanced in either but also tired of doing 2-3 workouts a week and not making a ton of progress. Consistency is key but wondering if daily work would help with that consistency. | ||

I just stopped posting since wieghtlifting just was too frustrating with my injury and then starting a new job... working full-time is stressful Anyway, I am REALLY hoping that the acupuncture is going to help, plus me myself massaging it all the time. I am desperate actually. Everything that requires explosive power in the quads is just not feasible  @Garbels: Honestly, I would have never thought of that, although it is that obvious. That is gonna be so awesome, I won't even be needing a gym anymore until my stupid quad is fixed. Bodyweight stuff is awesome. | ||
