My abs are finally feeling good. Probably 90-95%. I'm going to start doing the ab ripper x again starting this weekend. I'm going to start training to do a planche pushup, I'm going to have to strengthen my core and shoulders big time.

R.I.P. Uncle George!

When I was learning to do them I was just dong body weight exercises and when I achieved a planche. I want to push my physique aestheticly so I usually did them before weighted training. Planches required my full energy before I even considered hitting the gym.

Oh yea forgot to say, It took me like 5 months of consistent training but that's just from my experience. Also that's was just 1 rep with sloppy form.

Thanks. Planches require a lot of different muscle groups in order to perform. They require a lot of shoulder, chest, tricep, abdominal, lat, lower back, and even leg strength to hold. Each muscle group plays a part in maintaining and pushing yourself in the movement.

Thanks bro! Still trying even everything out right now...my quads and hams are growing fast but I am working hard to get my calves to catch up lol. How's the recovery and progress going? Hope you are well and healthy!

Ah, man that sucks! I hope you have speedy and full recovery. I feel like even with all the training that I am doing now...I need that weight vest to up the anty! Thanks for the encouraging words and I will be on here a lot more often now that I am grounded.

I remember you wrote about that vest sprinting, but I didn't connect the two. If I didn't have a workout plan in the gym, I would be lost.

What ab work were you doing before your injury? That is, do you think it was due to weak abs or you just pulled wrong? (A lot of people do a lot of ab work, thinking that helps with getting them to show.) I was working on my log sheets this morning. Figuring out what I'll be doing in the next cycle. Have a great weekend, resting your abs ;-)

A second leg day may lead to overtraining. Depends on what you can tolerate. Cutting back on running would be another option, but also depends on your priorities.

Saw your full-body picture, but it doesn't really show your legs. How are you doing with your leg training?
