How to Do TRX Abdominal Roll Outs

[@markjohnson1460]

Did these at the gym the other day and people just started watching

[@Fin_flash]

I use the "big 12" exercices. Push: handstand push up, ring push up, ring dip Pull: pull up, tuck fl row, inverted pull up (upside down on rings) Legs: pistol squat, glute ham raise, shrimp squat Core, hanging leg raise, ab wheel, reverse leg raise from headstand I do fullbody workouts mon, wed and fri. Doing push, pull, legs and core for 2-3 worksets each. Rep range in 3-10 per set. mon: pull up, handstand push, hanging leg raise and pistol squat wed: tuck fl row, ring push up, ghr and rll fri: inverted pull up, ring dip, shrimp squat and ab wheel What do you think about this?

+Finnish_Flash Rock on man, keep kick'n tail!

[@onceuponthecross1]

+Finnish_Flash i used to do someting very similar. what are your goals? how is your progress?

[@Fin_flash]

+onceuponthecross1 Progress feeels slow but steady. I want to get generally stronger and eventually move to harder variations on those exercises. Building muscle in the process would be nice too.

excellent. gonna give this a try.

Hi Matt, I do have a question. Do you recommend starting out on your knees? Thanks for any help.

[@ahitoramaroson]

Hey Matt. Is there a 'sweet spot' for total volume per week for workouts? I've seen this in articles but I don't know if the same rules: 30-60 for small muscle groups and 60-120 for large muscle groups. Could you make a video on this

[@RedDeltaProject]

There are many factors determining your sweet spot, mostly concerning recovery. The better your recovery the more volume in your work out

[@ahitoramaroson]

+RedDeltaProject OK...my recovery is really bad so that'd why I do this split: Upper Body, Lower Body, Rest, Repeat, Rest the weekend. So according to your approach I need less volume right?

[@RedDeltaProject]

+Allan Ramaroson exactly. Your guiding sign is how you feel for each workout. If you hit that sweet spot you should feel pretty fresh and hungry for the workout.

[@ahitoramaroson]

+RedDeltaProject Alrighty then. Now I know to stick to my split routine and total volume now because I killed each workout recently. Thanks for the advice

How about using TRX face down feet in stirrups for abs?

[@RedDeltaProject]

Love that move. Very intense

[@MrTouchFish]

Is there any reason you don't go down to where your arms are in line with the "plank"? Or is that the point at which your core is fully extended and any further would just put it on your shoulders and whatnot?

[@RedDeltaProject]

+MrTouchFish Yea, that's the point where I'm limited by flexibility and muscle control.

[@Godstemplefitness]

Hey bro can would you know the answer too why my elbow joints hurt when I do triceps workouts (bodyweight exercise) like chair dips and triceps extension on a bench. Maybe I'm overusing my joints or bad form. I'm not sure but any help would be nice

[@RedDeltaProject]

+Godstemplefitness There can be any number of reasons for joint pain, to be honest your guess is as good as mine. Most of the time though it's from a muscle somewhere not contracting enough and the tension is just flooding into the joint.

[@RedDeltaProject]

The first thing to look into is seen how much your other muscles are coming into the move. Are you making sure to get your shoulders working in your chest and your back as well? Try to envision a stream of tension throughout your entire upper body including your triceps that might help.

[@onceuponthecross1]

+Godstemplefitness could be a form of tendonitis called tennis elbow or something as simple as "stop locking your joints out so damn hard", "give your body more rest" or "switch to easier progressions". in the case of the former, there are dozens of helpful vids here on youtube. if it doesn't get better, go see a doc

[@tappannicurdoe8339]

Isn't this about the same as using an ab wheel(s)?

[@RedDeltaProject]

Very similar but this has much more range of resistance.
