Why did /fit/ stop shilling this?
>>77289968Was this what the rings schizo who never post body also used to spam
>>77289968cause it was too gay
>>77289968because nobody on this board lifts or works outfeel free to post body and prove me wrong, but any reply to this thread without body is DYEL (including me)
Any exercise you have to practice for more than two weeks to be able to do outside squatting (maybe), no one wants to do. Same story with snatch, clean and jerk, and half a dozen other exercises. People are very bad at learning and practicing skills on their own and normally have very little intrinsic motivation. They see someone doing something they can't do and go oh no I can't do that, and their brain shuts off. Or, they think the person is showing off, and then their brain shuts off. There's a small third group that goes that looks that looks really fun, how did you do that, because I want to do that too. Additionally, if you have bad cardio, mobility, overweight, you will be stuck for months longer than you normally should have been.
>>77290074very gay way of thinking. ever think maybe people arent interested in doing gymnastics? whats next? people being jealous of strippers being able to hang upside to show their asshole?
>>77290074Clean and jerk and especially the jerk are easy. Im sorry you never did any sports in your teens or you're an uncoordinated autists.
>>77289968It doesn't work if you're natty, over 5'8 over 20 years old that's why. Same deal with overcoming gravity and convict conditioning. They can work in a specific window of time with a specific frame but will fail progressively harder the more you get outside that.
>>77289968because spending 10 years becoming an elite gymnast is a waste of time when you could get the same physique in 4 years of lifting.
>>77289968Did the guy ever publish his other planend books about stretching, explosive strength, etc? I think it was one of the first big grifts, considering actual gymnasts don't train the progressions exercises at all. They just try a stunt until they can do it, then chain the stunts together for a routine. Really simple, actually. Not like that book at all.
>>77291187Why is that
>>77291353Because it takes ten years and humans straddle an awkward point in square cube law.
>>77291364Doesn't take 10 years, pro gymnasts start work and retire early.
>>77291394They start around 8-10 and peak usually around 19-22. They lift sometime around 14/15 when they're in the peat igf-1 years then drop lifting and double down on skill work and all that because when you practice gymnastics 30 hours a week or more you'll definitely get enough stimulation to hold onto the leanmass in relation to how much you're using it. Which is perfect for letting the weight optimization for your tricks just occur naturally.
>>77291421Okay, but you agree that even a sedentary office worker can train to do an L - sit, maybe using different means.
>>77291512L sit is stupid easy because it's an isometic. Just like plank or back lever. All they require is more endurance in the muscles you're using not mass which is why they don't grow mass.
>>77289986Being able to do this is impressive, not gay.
>>77291930Its honestly very gay. I look back on my old footage of me doing gymnastics and it makes me think how gay it all is. Its fine to do it without anyone watching but learning this just so you can do it in front of other people is extremely gay.
>>77291930Now he can join the circus.
>>77291960Honestly, being gay is the most masculine thing you can do. All the anti-gay shilling is a female psyop.
>>77291969Even gayer. How gay are you?
>>77291930Now bulk up 30+ lbs and do that, then I will be impressed. It's not impressive to watch 130 lb twinks lift their bodyweight when there are 200 lb men who can do the same thing. Watching heavier athletes move like this is actually impressive because bodies that size shouldn't be able to move like that and yet they do. It's the difference between watching a gibbon swing around in the trees effortlessly and watching a gorilla climb around in a tree while weighing 400 lbs.
>>77289986too gay for /fit/?
>>77291960worrying about being gay to this extent is very gay. faggot.
>>77289968Has anyone actually read the book? What was the advice?>>77289972
>>77291969most true thing I've read on here in a very long time
>>77289968It's too hard once you're grown.
>>77289968Funding dried up
>>77291353They don't make you fat, that's what Americans mean by making it
>>77290109I don't understand how you came to that conclusion based of off what I wrote.>>77290099But they sure are interested in the way they look.>>77291318Yes he has another website https://www.gymnasticbodies.com/free-members/ where most of the people on this site still can't do the intro exercises. He has been complaining about this for years on podcasts. There are at least 3 or 4 other decent channels on youtube doing the same thing and they can't get any real traction. There are more guys into isometrics and street lifting, but that side of things is mostly hand balancing and front lever/planche variations. Most of the other calisthenics channels are focused on very simple exercises with high reps or light weight with high reps. The few ring focused channels also look good.The funny part is almost everyone actually looks good. Multiple races, ages, sections of the world.
>>77291960Ok you seem to have a very different definition of gay than normal people.To normal people, it means homosexual.
>>77289986My son has a buddy on his hockey team who does gymnastics. Has a body like this. As a teen, he has clapped more cheeks than any 10 men.
