  • Yes. Just a little bit so you are balanced.

  • Place your feet further apart, yes, and turn your torso to the opposite side of the member your doing your pushups with.

    You can ease doing several if you alternate between your left and right arm.

  • I've tryed:

    • wger
    • FitNotes
    • Simple
    • Flexify

    But haven't been fully satisfied with any, so far.

    Needs more testing on my part...

  • There have to be several.

    Just a thought: have you considered lowering intensity and maybe raising a little bit volume (more reps, more time...)?

  • Exercise and Sports Science @mander.xyz

    "Active sitting"?! Really?...

  • Why is the curved handle hanging from the fixations? Where it on top and there wouldn't be the risk of falling due to the screw failing. Right?

  • I can think of lots of other use cases:

    • Do asymmetric pull ups (as long as you compensate by doing the reverse next time)
    • Try to do it with one hand (or with the help of the other arm grabbing your wrist)
    • Jump from one grip to another
    • Sit on top of it to have a better view of the gym
    • Hang your coat or your hat
    • Fix that to the back of a box with a weal and you have a nice wheelbarrow

    Seriously: yes, there are differences. The reason it is easier to do with your palms facing your face is because you have a better help from your biceps, I think. So you're exercising less your lats. But there is no "form worst to better" - want to train your lats, use supinated grip, not enough strength yet? Do negative, do some with a pronated grip...

  • Went ahead and watched it. It's great. Thanks.

    It's a good analogy as well. Others have suggested "home" - it's a good alternative.

  • That's another issue I have: Maybe that could be resolved by implementing something similar to (or exactly) openid.

    I feel the software we choose might limits us on the kind of thing we're interested in, that's why I have to have a lemmy account - I wouldn't have a discussion like this one on mastodon, for example - and a mastodon account. Maybe a pixelfed account, a peertube account... what a mess! But that's a subject for another discussion (this discussion was "Permanently Deleted"?!).

  • Sorry, I misunderstood you, then. :-)

  • You might be right about being able to do almost anything whatever the instance you choose, as long as you already figured it all out, but having an account at a lemmy server, and two at two different mastodon servers, I do have the feeling that the presence on any of them is a different experience.

    Don't forget that what most people's experience on the fediverse comes probably via mastodon and that they start by getting most of their content via home and local feeds. Federated comes third, i guess.

    I am still struggling to find content on some of my preferred topics...

  • Thanks for the guide.

  • And the term would reinforce the need do stick to that entity rules. I agree.

  • That's what I was thinking about.

    I have to acknowledge the point @otter@lemmy.ca makes about there being a collision with the term "community" in the threadiverse perspective. Maybe "home" or even "tribe" or "people" would be a better fit. But I still do think that "community" encompasses the feeling best, and that collision will be promptly resolved once the user understands what communities really are on that narrower scope.

    That's maybe a compromise we will (have to | want to) make.

    Once again - that's my feeling, but I could be wrong.

  • Fediverse @lemmy.ml

    Talk about choosing "a community", not "a server"

  • Yes...

    I'm still in the fase of watching videos of kata and some kumite online... then I fake-do them on my exiguous garage just to see if I can still remember them.

    Not as flexible as I was, not as tough... but, hopefully, a little bit wiser.

  • I'll try the decline bech press. Lets see...

  • I did try to pay attention to those details and... no change. Except for the arched back... maybe I should look into that a little bit more.

    Thanks
