@madeleineblau3 years agoI just remembered: What really helps the afab body as well, is pole dance. It trains so much the upper body, and makes the arms really strong, and the side abs get bigger and so you have less small waist. I see my colleagues, mostly cis-women, and they all have really "masculine" body structure from the training. - I will def gonna go back there. Bc I am (still afraid) of T. ...38

@coreykuefler-terweeme72684 years agoIf you can’t do pull ups but if you feel comfortable at the gym, there’s a pull up machine that you can use to ease into your entire body weight using the adjustable weights in the process 17
@
@setedisangue93828 years agoIf you really want to build muscle instead of just tone in the legs do low rep squats with a barbell. Or if at home goblet squat with a dumbbell. 37

@
@noahfox1793 months agoA good way to learn pull ups if you can't do them yet is Reverse pull Ups. Jump to get your chin to the bar, then hold as long as you can (even if it's only a few seconds) and then lower yourself down as slowly and with as much control as possible. ...1

@dragonflysagatiaej48334 years agoYou should never thrust your hips foreword. That’s a good way to get injured. You squat with your lower back and never push the hips forward. 5

@
@myrkflinn43314 years agoI watched this a year ago and now watch it back, but Aydian, some of your technique of the pulling itself is wrong (aside of the controlled movements which are correct). I learnt this: If you dont have lat strength or upper body strength for a pull up, try excercises that mimic those movements (there are body weight excercises). get comfortable and stretch first with a dead hang, keep your feet low not to your ass cos that will not help. use a normal grip or chin up grip (depending on your arm strength) and retract your scalpula a bit or shoulders (there are examples, man examples on how to do that). keep legs straight and imagine pulling from your back (practise muslc emind connection, dont worry, you'll get there after awhile of attempting to learn pull ups, the movements do a lot but you HAVE to warm up your lats first with stretching. Suicide grip: not adviced; For people with small hands, try bars that are thinner and with good grip or branches. The thumb helps out a lot.) Try to keep your negatives (when you back down) controlled and contracted, you'll feel it better. Doesnt matter if you manage just one pull at a time, and keep your breathing stable (exhale when going up, inhale when going down). Try avoid swinging, use a chair or assisted pull up machine if you can. Try to go down as much as you can when lowering your body after a pull, because yes, it's just better for stretching and contracting (a lot more difficult but worth it) Keep legs more down or up front when you pull yourself up (its proven to be more effective), and for slight add: your toes pointed to the ceiling or sky as well. Dont overdo it when you start off cos you'll feel ffing sore after a few. But your upper body and core will get used to it, I can guarantee it. With pull ups, you train: lateral delts, core, arms, lats and even other tiny muscles everywhere else to keep focus. But now it isnt the end of the world if you cant do a pull up yet. It requires lots of getting used to pulling your bodyweight up. ...1
