how do you keep yourself from tilting?
A combination of tensing abs and glutes hard, and wider stance legs.
Things were ugly by set 4
That’s allowed?
As far as I’m concerned it’s necessary
I think it’s just simple physics and such.
I saw this, and it changed the way I did my one arm pushups. Every pushup is a chance to get closer.

Probably going to add sets for more volume later this week.
Might try some goblet pistols with the KB if my balance is up to it.
No equipment brah?
a KB, a vest, an ab wheel and a 1" band. This is literally everything, so having to get creative.
Still getting good tension on everything except posterior chain, plenty enough for a hypertrophy cycle anyway, just my deadlifts that are going to regress somewhat I think, though shouldn’t be too bad.
No chance to rent equipment off any gyms?
not around me no. Even if there were, nowhere in my place to set up a bar.
Ootside
He’s UK based, it rains non-stop (apart from in the current lock down when it’s ironically glorious), you’d be buying not renting that bar - it’d be so rusty!
Also, living in an expensive part of the UK, i live in a 1 bedroom flat, without a garden.
we were supposed to be moving to a 3 bed with a garden last week, but this whole COVID clusterfuck meant the chain fell through less than a week from completion.
Ah that sucks, will the chain be able to pick back up after things settle back down or is it gone for good?
hard to say, theoretically could pick back up, but buyers have pulled out formally though theyve said they’d be back and willing if things settle in a few months but cant commit. Not getting my hopes up, assuming its gone and we wont be moving for another year or so
That sucks man. Hows that going to pan out with the little one?
Apologies if that’s too personal.
Not at all, our bedroom is big enough for his cot, so we,ve set that up now.
He’s still only 8 months so its not an issue yet, but it will be pretty crowded by the time we do eventually move now.
