A place to talk about fitness and health on Farcaster.

Mixed in calisthenics lately. 10/10. Recommend

Fun having new goals (skill work) instead of just weights++

Def leveled up balance, muscle control, and functional strength 

Took some time and persistence to get off the ground (literally) but starting at ~0 on these skills meant progress was relatively quick

No, just make my own. Skill work mixed in with weight training

The skills being planche, front lever, pistol (one-legged) squats, and Nordic curls

Pistol squats are killer. My balance sucks

Indeed killer

I found those to ironically the most difficult but also where I saw the fastest progress

By their nature I found it easiet to progressively increase resistance and push my muscles to failure

Any ankle mobility exercises other than just ROM stuff?

I found the key for me was to really work on my ankle mobility... then I did assisted pistols using gymnastics rings to hold the bulk of my weight in order to identify other range of motion issues to work on
