- Skipped 5 months or so, doing push ups here and there, 50-70 each time few times a day. By the end of winter got lazy.
- April 2016, first time on a pull up bar did 12 or 15, after a week was doing 20, after another week or so got my record up to 28 pull ups.
- This summer got my abs to show up modest 6 pack with flat, lean stomach  been doing pull ups with straight legs in front holding horizontally in 90 degree angle of upper body, I call them "pull ups with angle" and also doing some other things on a bar.
Now my goal for this winter is to learn and get comfy doing hand-stands without wall support. |
hoping your ritual does good for you, sounds like it's going well!
Can I recommend beginning with head stands, once, sorted, pull full hand stands & then go for flips once confident

My partner has done serious training in the past & recommends you push up, this will increase your pecs, not your bi ceps, but once your arms are back in action, then you can continue your pull ups.
A man with nice pecs is great... you look good and don't need to fight in our adult life, so bi ceps can come in a few months
