Great Content Simon! Keep it Coming!

[@Sanusifitness]

I love the way you take time and vividly Explain things, keep going Bro

[@juanmartinreborati7928]

Thanks Simon! I'm doing your intermediate program, which I love, but I'm struggling with the planche progress. I'll try some of this short duration isometrics and raises. Cheers!

[@sldenn5303]

Very good video! Love how you explain isometrics!!! 🥰

[@thomastoadally]

Excellent explanation of these differences. I will employ all you have explained. Thanks again for your indepth reports.

[@ajiteshverma]

Great information. Thanks!

Just visit your channels, and viewed video 7 last years. Amazing your talent!

[@noelanzalichi4909]

Great video as always!

[@1m2ogaming]

Btw in your opinion for strength gains is it important to train the upper back muscles with wide grip variant or shoulder width training is enough. Outside of aesthetics and muscle balance obviously. Currently trying to do 50-50 between both but before was doing 75-25 i think.

Hi really like your videos Question…can I also use this method for The one arm chin up ??

[@markl7520]

This guy is strong as hell to be able hold those positions.

[@frodolives6021]

Can we get an example for Planche? Pretty please? Thank you for the info.

[@Ace-zb5xr]

5:27 wow! I thought 4-5 high intensity sets a session, once a week was enough after getting injured trying twice a week and now I'm finding out I need 11+ sets! Can't imagine how long it's going to take but at my next routine tweek I'll give it a go.

[@1m2ogaming]

If you feel pain in some connection tissues just go once per week the harder variation. I injured myself in the leg doing 1 leg squats while i was barely able to do them. Luckily helped me avoid the same with FL since i reduced the intensity before it happened. Also if you're low on time i can hightly recommend you to do Full Body workouts or opposite muscle workouts. For example you can do supersets with FL and Planche with 2-3-4 minutes break between the supersets.

The only big youtuber that knows about stuff like full lever and planche. Rest of these big yt sissies talking best pushups to build chest 🤣🤣🤣. Great work Simonster

[@mrsbootsworkouts]

Impressive core strength, thank you for the motivation!

[@mk204for45]

it aint core lol

[@briand5047]

@ 0:46, are those parellettes not available yet? I don't see them on the BB website.

[@frazebean5117]

I just realised Simon never does a full planche anymore. You're still a beast though man keep it up.

[@mrguyonweed]

Probably because the surgery

[@user-dy8tn3mo7c]

Thanks Simon for the wonderful video and the very good tips ! 😎❤👋👍🙏

[@TreStyles-tq4le]

Hi, i had a question. Can i use isometrics as a sort of finisher set after all my regular workout sets?

[@LA-by6tl]

simon what are those adjustable p bars in the video please

[@mateuszszafraniec2555]

Hi. How long should I rest between sets of isometrics? And is there some difference in rest time between shorter or longer isometrics?

[@1m2ogaming]

The harder the sets are the more rest times you need. For strength sets you can go between 4-6 minutes(3-10 seconds tie. For normal sets you can go 2 minutes. And if something is really easy for you you can go lower than 2 minutes. Another approach is go on feeling.

[@kostar500]

What brand of Parallettes are those?

[@nahummarkov9645]

Hey Simon, my elbows hyperextend, when I do straightarm exercises, should I fully extend my arm which makes my arm start to bend backwards, or should I hold a straightarm position? Thanks

[@margodphd]

I'm not Simon, but a certified fitness trainer nonetheless,and you should never, especially under load, keep a joint moving beyond it's natural range of motion,even if your tendons and ligaments allow it. It can be really dangerous and lead to further destabilisation of the joint and even dislocation. Whether it's genetic or a result of injury, it would be of benefit to add some exercises that help in stability of said joint - I would consult sport medicine specialist and physiotherapist, otherwise you risk doing more damage,and without individual assesment no proper course of action can be chosen. Stay healthy :)

[@nahummarkov9645]

@@margodphd Thanks for the reply. I think you're right, I was just a bit confused because you see the famous gymnasts that have hyperextended elbows lockout as far as they can while doing straight-arm exercises. Although, copying what they do isn't a good idea because they often sacrifice their body in order to achieve these feats of strength.

[@SABARI95969798]

many coaches consider 1 reps equivalent to 3 sec so if prefer to work in 5 12 rep range is 15 - 36 sec in isometrics need to consider

[@SimonsterStrength]

This is one way to go about it but I don’t think it acknowledges some differences. One being that during dynamic reps, only for a small portion of the movement are the muscles truly challenged. For example, on the bench press, the sticking point is hard and the very top is easy (the muscles can basically rest when you lock out). For a 10RM, there maybe only be 15-20 seconds where the muscles are really working hard rather than the “equivalent” 30 in the isometric. This is why when you just equate for time under tension or use the 1 rep = 3 seconds rule, you may feel the isometric lacks intensity. I think 1 rep = 2-3 seconds is a useful loose principle and practical guide… but it’s not not a perfect science.

[@SABARI95969798]

Do you consider eccentric training also in these range
