Come on, you gotta try harder than that.

Hey, where do you know Karen from?

Does anybody do Steady State Cycle(SSC). I read about it in the OP. Here
>http://antranik.org/how-to-implement-a-steady-state-training-cycle/
Can somebody confirm if I understood this properly?

Now SSC is all about Fundamental Static Positions - like Front Lever, Back Lever and Straddle Planche and not HBP and RC.

So let's say it's Monday and I have to do FL, sPL, HBP and RC. Currently I am at FL2 - [Bent Hollow Body Rock 5x48r] and sPL5 [Planche Lean 5x30s]. So it says to do some low intensity (50%)static holds after warm up and before the real deal. And I should be doing it for the next 8-12 weeks. My workout should look like this.

>warm up
>SSC FL2 3x20r
>SSC sPL5 4x15s
>actual FL2 5x48r
>actual sPL5 5x30s
>actual HBP
>actual RC

and after let's say 5 weeks my workout should be like this

>warm up
>still SSC FL2 3x20r (7 more weeks of this)
>still SSC sPL5 4x15s (7 more weeks of this)
>actual FL3 (I would have progressed by 5 weeks to next level)
>actual sPL6 (I would have progressed by 5 weeks to next level)
>.....

I feel like I am not understanding this properly.

Also just realized that it is about the elbow joint and it is too early to do SSC for FL since I don't put any strain on the elbow at this point of the progression. But I am putting strain on the elbow during Planche Lean so this stands.

what's a good video to learn to do the trick in OP's pic?

How should my elbows be positioned for Push ups.

Like if you had a top down view what would the angle be of my arms?
10º elbows tucked as much as possible?
45º elbows flared out?

>>41085749
>10º elbows tucked as much as possible?
works more triceps
>45º elbows flared out?
works more chest

i do both

as Close to the body as possible. Pic related is at the bottom of the push up. Notice the Hands. When they are facing away from your body, it is next to impossible to flare your elbows

You should also watch this video, because the elbow position is only 1 out of 3 key points in doing a proper push up.

well all are the same goes something like

pseudo push ups -> pseudo planch lean hold -> tucked planch -> advanced tucked planch -> straddle planch -> full planch

Is lordosis peak performance?

>>41083300
Karen posts these threads fairly regularly.

>>41083139
I was at work all day mang sorry.

>>41086720
yeah, he is a good guy at heart.

It's Easter and Saturday. What do you work man?

>>41085487
Does lifting your hips on a swede ladder like so help in bringing the hips forward during L-sit which is a prerequisite to manna?

Should I still eat the same as the sticky recommends me (16-18*(Current bodyweight)) if I'm doing calisthenics instead of lifting?

>>41086442
thats woodland ca

>>41087011
Yes. Nutrition is nutrition. Make sure you hit calories and protein, and then the split for the rest is somewhat up to you.

>>41086325
No, lordosis is not peak performance. Elongated resting state for the abs, excessive lumbar curvature, short hip flexors, elongated extensors. If the goal is to be a more rounded athlete, rather than specialising for particular events, then it's sub-optimal and can potentially set you up for injury/pain..

Anyone got .pdf links for foundations? I want to be doing Front levers and straddle planche and all that and I don't want to waste any more time!
I'm tired of being an intermediate lifter, I hit most of my goals (1.5/2.5/3/4.5 pl8) and I don't think it's really sustainable or good for my joints in the long term, so I'd rather focus on flexibility, bodyweight training, and cardio.
