guys, here is a question -
how old do you think you should be to still be able to do the strength training?
and particularly to do the arm balances or other calisthenics?

what could motivate you to workout?
(i think the fear is the strongest motivation)

what's your thoughts in general about aging and being able to workout?
- do you think you can be too old to workout or is it okay at any age?
- and what kinds of workouts at what age is ok?
- what do you think about martial arts and how good or bad they are to get fit? (i think many do not work for this goal but may make you feel better mentally. also for many you need to train strength and stretch additionally to be better in it)

(and.. how old do you think I am?)

join the abs party, btw !
six pack beautify people a lot better than brilliants!! 😂😂

Pump your abs challenge 😆
let´s start on Monday!
#absChallenge #PumpYourAbs

4 + 1 weeks

- week 1-3 - appr. 5 mins from Monday to Friday
- week 4 - 3 full 30-35 mins workouts on Monday, Wednesday and Friday
- bonus Week 5 - with a gym ball!

#Fediverse only.
i´ll post videos for each time in #Peertube (#makertube), and share them in #Mastodon and #Pixelfed

- i suggest the options for different levels, it has to be HARD but possible - choose your level!
Do it once or twice and then do it again!
you may want to use weights (or shampoo bottles) and a balancing pillow or a sofa cushion 😆
..
If you just start training - do it during 5 mins, slowly and rest when you need, try also a harder option!
if you train regularly already - add these 5 mins to the end of your usual workout.
for the extremely fast results you can do it 5 mins in the morning, 5 mins again during the day, then 5 mins before the dinner 😆

i´m not feeling any motivation or inspiration lately to start doing workouts online.
as i have zero income and can´t work with a computer anymore due to bad eyes pain, i wanted to make the workouts my job but for the moment it´s complicated to start doing it in person.
my idea was to do it online for donation or a small fee.
but.. except that too few people know me as a trainer, also..
- when i call it "yoga" - people think it´s something easy and relaxing. and it´s f**ng not, not at my watch.
- when i call it "calisthenics" - for girls it sounds boring, for guys it sounds also boring as no one expect something strong enough from a girl.
- when i say "stretching" - everyone thinks it´s something relaxing and besides, who doesn´t know how to stretch, what can be easier? i can say - almost no one, but it´s such a topic that no one takes seriously. and i feel horrified looking how people try to injure themselves during stretching - i see it a lot.
- do you know that proper stretching makes muscles grow? do you know that strength training can be also a stretching at the same time?
- do you know how old i am to do the stuff that i can do? most of people of my age are fallen apart already.

i´ve trained a lot with other people and other instructors.
and when the training is phisically hard - what i see is - when the trainer is a girl - mostly or only girls train in her group. when the trainer is a guy - mostly or only guys.
interesting.

in my case - girls generally want something a lot easier than what i suggest and don´t come when they see it´s not so relaxing and guys don´t even start trying thinking it´s gonna be too light.

but few offline workouts which i´ve hold - the ones who expected "easy yoga" from me died first and could not keep it longer than 15 minutes😂
i would not like to scare anyone though as there are always options 😃

#workoutoftheday - or rather, from yesterday

I tried the new rowing machine!

I was able to do 10’ of indoor rowing. It’s not that I felt particularly tired after 10’, but my arms and chest could not do more than that. I sure feel them this morning and I know I am going to be sore af. Will try again tomorrow or so.

Because I know my upper body needs some work, I also did some lifting afterwards:

3x12@12lb Bicep Curl
3x10 Pushups
4x12 @ 15lb Bent Over Reverse Fly
3x9 20lb Shoulder Press - last set I got six and that’s about it
3x7 20lb Tricep extension
4x8 8lb Iron Crosses - I’m terrible at this
100 Bycicle crunches

Good workout

✨Non-Traditional Exercise of the Day: The Cossack Squat (Do it Anywhere!)

🔥This exercise engages your glutes and inner thighs, boosts flexibility, and improves hip mobility.

😅Watch my incredible 65-year-young online client demonstrate impressive depth with the Cossack Squat, effectively combating sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss).

It’s never too late to ACTIVE!👟

who´s up for the abs challenge?

also, i´ve planned Lsit and Lolasana (Tuck planche) challenge, ready to start if you´re interested.
and what about the other arm balances?
Let me know please! 😀
