Exercise videos, anyone?

[f4phantom2500]

Anyone who frequents GC these days has probably seen me posting (excessively) about bodyweight exercises. I've been thinking about making a tutorial video about this, but I haven't decided what exactly to make the video about. I could do a progressive tutorial, showing demonstrations of beginner to advanced variations of one exercise while providing tips and insights to help progress, or I could do a sample workout with 3 or 4 different exercises and just do quick demonstrations of one or two variations of each.


So, does anyone have any suggestions or requests?

EDIT: i didn't really want to make a new thread for this, so i'll just post it here. I GOT MY FIRST MUSCLE UPS TODAY!!! oddly enough i can't do fast muscle ups, only slow muscle ups...which is technically harder. with the fast variety you pull up with such force that you have momentum to help you fly through the transition. with the slow muscle up you're using pure strength to get through the transition. also i am finding them more manageable on rings than on a bar, whereas it seems most people find them easier on a bar.

Haha, it's funny, I was watching this guy do one armed pull ups on yt the other day, and I saw your name in the comments! I don't know why, but it just felt like the chances of seeing a crossover on a non GH/RB related vid are slim to none.

In any case, I'd watch them, especially a bodyweight workout - I'm going away for a while in July and won't have access to a gym, so I'd like to give these a go - not entirely sure on which exercises together would constitute a workout though, so an insight on what you do would be useful.

I'd watch 'em.

Tried diamond pushups the other day but was finding them kind of hard on my shoulders. I tried aligning my hands with the center of my chest like a video I saw said, but it was still hard finding a comfortable way to lower myself.

I'm up past 20 perfect pushups now so I'm likely to only get muscle endurance if I keep doing those. I tried doing the pushups with my feet against the wall but it's a challenge just to hold myself up let alone do any pushups... does it make sense to work on my hold time for that before doing any pushups?

Not really a big issue because I can focus more on pullups and chinups for the next little bit.

EDIT: Just did my first pike pushups. Great exercise. I put my legs as far forward as I could on the last set and they were really tough that way. I have to get good at these if I'm going to someday do a handstand pushup.
