/Cal/isthenics general

I keep fucking up my wrists. So, there's that.

My frog stands are up to about 15 sec from zero.

I don't know if I'm going to keep up with it or just go back to free weight from here.

I plan on switching to mainly bodyweight but I wanted to gain some mass before I do because I've heard it's easier to gain size from free weights

Frogstands shouldn't put that much stress on the wrists, try them on paralletes or turn your wrists out

I fucked my wrist with frogstands as well. Stretch wrists before frogstands helped, but I maybe imagining things. I started frogstands last week, so I haven't experimented much.

You gain mass by eating food, silly. Haven't you heard of calories in calories out? What you've heard is bro science.

Im 170lbs

yeah that explains why it is hard for you. I am 135lbs 5'9' and it's easy for me to do them 5x30s. btw What routine are you following right now?

>>41350906
Oh no im not the anon that hurt his wrist. I thought you were asking me.
I can do all bent arm exercises without wrist pain at 170.

>>41350748
well how do you position your hands ?
if you do it with fingers facing in front of you you going to fuck your wrist .

Can you get away with a bodyweight program if you have lower ceilings? The only place I can think of with higher ceilings is the garage but there's no room in there. How low can you hang rings and get away with a routine?

So are you saying I should just say fuck my free weight program and jump right into bodyweight training? My goals are to be aesthetic and also do cool shit like planches, handstands and human flag. Right now I'm 5'6" 140 lb and I was planning on trying to gain strength and size on ICF 5x5 through the summer and then switch to a PPL to focus on hypertrophy until 2018 and then move into bodyweight training. Should I just jump right into it though?

Icf isnt a bad program you can start with it if you want
>>41352345
Honestly if you have a low ceiling dont even bother with rings. Although i love rings i dont believe they are necessary. If you really want them just go outside and hang them from a tree.
