ah Paul (theF0rthress). He's pretty good. He put up an awesome follow along workout which was really great. Packs a lot into just a few minutes. I watch all those guys too. I started following a bunch of these guys on instagram. They are all pretty motivating.

Yeah It's not quite as bustling as some other groups I'm sure. Honestly, it's hard with so many online communities to keep up with them all! Anyway thats pretty good! I'm at about 6 unassisted pull-ups and 11 unassisted chinups right now cold. I started at the end of March and could maybe pull off a single pull up. Anyone…

You will see results, but it also reminds me of an expression - Abs are made in the kitchen. In other words, nutrition is pretty key to reducing body fat. You will see results but like anything it takes time. See a guy on youtube under strengthcamp. He talks in one video about having more long term goals and expectations.…

My wife and I don't use TDEE - haven't since we started. We use harris Benedict, which is essentially what MFP does by default it seems. Calories were virtually spot on between the two anyway. We've both been losing steadily since mid-march for me ( when I started ) and since mid-february for her ( when she started ).…

I downloaded the current routines. I think the site is great. Lots of routines. I haven't done one of their routines strictly though. So far I've been kind of making up my own routines. I'll probably mix a few of their routines in though. The only thing I couldn't find is a recommended schedule or a suggestion on when and…

Well I'm still at the beginning of my journey really, but I have read several places that incline presses are great for upper chest - which is almost the same position as a decline pushup. I know when I do declines I can feel it almost to my clavicle and just medial of the anterior deltoid. Maybe one of the more…

Nothing wrong with "girl" pushups. Everyone starts somewhere! Are you able to do partial ROM air squats? What about wall sits, stairs (one or two stairs at a time) or lunges? I'm currently struggling with one leg pistol squats as my knees give out. I'm doing partial ROM, wall sits and air squats to try to build up some of…

It's working for me this morning.

Thanks for the site. They have a nice collection of routines.

Nice to meet you. I'm a beginner too - started maybe 2-3 weeks ago. I started the same way. I stumbled across the workouts on youtube and was surprised by the results of mainly or strictly bodyweight training. I've been enjoying training a lot more this time around that's for sure. We have a nearby playground that has a…

There is a version of stronglifts that uses dumbells. I've read that it isn't quite as effective but if you're just starting it might suffice in the interim. There are a ton of things to do with dumbells. Flyes, presses, dumbell squats, shrugs, side lateral and front raises. If you google dumbell routines you'll find a ton…
