Parallettes are one of our favorite tools for building the kind of strength and control that carries over into everyday life as well as some kickass skills. They're great for beginners (as a way to transition to the floor) and for more advanced trainees (who need help honing certain skills).

Get It! 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

[@BernardoSteinberg]

Very Nice!!!

[@patrickarena2866]

Wonderful as usual. You make it look it easy!

[@gmbfit]

Thanks - had a bit of practice ;)

[@frothymilksmiles]

fantastic! I just got my P bars and am glad I saw this. Do you have any other videos with supplemental exercises to facilitate working towards the L sit etc? I have really long leg to torso ratio and realize that my lower abs and hip flexors are weak as well...

[@gmbfit]

Best things for the L-sit are exactly what's shown here. Your proportions might mean you need to spend more time, but the tuck and shoulder positioning shown here are precisely what'll get you to your goal.

[@KAGARAKIS]

this is awesome!

[@gmbfit]

Try it out and let us know how it works for you :)

[@shraddhatingre3712]

You made it so easy...thanks👍

[@becomingaconsciousman]

Thanks for this!

[@gmbfit]

Sure thing

[@chendadon7168]

Hi Brian, when you training for gymnastics skills how you incorporate leg workout?

[@gmbfit]

If you are practicing specific skills you can place leg work after your skill work. Also, it all depends on what your specific training goals are. Here is a good place to start! gmb.io/bodyweight-leg-exercises/

[@exothermic8525]

If you have sensitive wrists (putting pressure on them while they are in exstension and flextion) should you still try to prep them with the stretches?

[@gmbfit]

You just gotta control the pressure and be gentle. Work within your own range of acceptable comfort/discomfort but avoid pain.

[@SunshineSurfsup1]

Nicely done! What might be the best sequence or posture for the back/lats?

[@gmbfit]

Not sure what you mean. The tutorial shows what we recommend.

[@SunshineSurfsup1]

GMB Fitness Ok... then can you cue to where the back/last are specifically mentioned? I am looking to improve lats and am not sure if I need to go to the higher parallels for this

[@SunshineSurfsup1]

So ... I watched it again... didn’t hear where you mention exercises that load the back/lats. These exercises demonstrated load the chest and shoulders. If I missed your back/lat-loading guidance please advise. Otherwise I’ll move on and explore on own. Thanks!

[@Vish-dt9jl]

I do this every morning immediately after waking up for 5 mins and go to bath

[@masobeso]

Do you find these movements help your jiujitsu? I always hurt my shoulders in live rolling when I get into the higher weights with my compound lifts.

[@masobeso]

Or is that a judo gi?

[@gmbfit]

Ryan did Judo for >20 years and had a couple of shoulder surgeries. This is the kind of stuff that's helped him recover his strength and function over the last few years. That's a BJJ kimono.

[@masobeso]

@@gmbfit Thats good to hear!

[@johnniekeymer]

I've just started out and find the parrallette bars (metal) are hurting the palms of my hands during L sits. Is this common at the start or an indication of poor technique? Thanks

[@gmbfit]

Pain in the palm of your hands could mean you are not stacking your joints properly. Try placing your thumb on the parallettes as you hold on to the p-bars. Here is a helpful resource for you to use! gmb.io/parallettes-benefits/

[@jamestan220]

Thank you so much for this. I am turning 49 and I need to do this. I feel muscles are loosing their strength since lockdown and did not hit gym as much. Now starting to build strength again I need variety. Need to focus on some pilates also.

[@gmbfit]

These exercises will definitely supplement well along with Pilates. Good on you getting back at it!

[@emilycreasy1485]

The meaty part of my palms hurts, is there anything that can alleviate this?

[@gmbfit]

Adjust your grip so you're not pushing into a sensitive area. Guild up your comfort supporting your weight over time.

[@davidcortright3889]

Is there any mobility work included in the P1 program. I think my hip flexors might be an area of challenge for me in some of the L-sit moves.

[@gmbfit]

There's not, but we have some really good stuff for free on our website you should use. Check this: gmb.io/hips/

[@sivashankar7365]

No up
