Got any tips on quads for a beginner? And I don’t mean “be patient/practice means perfect” kind of tips, just like small things that could help me improve. (And yes, I know about the bending fingers/elbows thing.)

Sure!! I’m personally not a very good quadrobist, I don’t do jumps, handstands and stuff, but I can give you tips on other things related to quads :3

So before practicing quadrobics, think about what animal‘s form you actually want to have. People tend to forget this and go with what looks „cool“ but it’s actually the best to analyze the behaviors and movements of the animal you want to be imitating first. (See this video for a good reference on the differences)

Secondly, warm up. I myself forget this quite a lot and I definitely notice it, but you need to warm up your muscles before practicing quadrobics. Push ups or any other arm related exercises are very important, as well as exercises for your back, they’ll also help.

And lastly, quadrobics is a sport but also meant for self expression. There is so need for it to look a certain way, to be „good“ or „perfect“ because those are just standards set by the community that are really unnecessary. Try as much as you wanr, don’t get hurt and have fun. That’s the most important part!! :3

I know this was probably not what you were hoping for but I feel these points are quite missed out on, so I hope this still helps you nonetheless <3

My favourite skill which I know how to do well.🧘‍♀️

Today I would tell you about my yoga class and how I do exercises well. This is not easy to learn to do yoga exercises. Every day for several years you need practise to be a professional. Advanced people exercise two or even three times a day.💪🏻 Many asanas(this is the name of yoga exercises) are unwonted for body and people, especially in Russia, don't understand how to do it right. You need control your breath, attention, balance of your body. Also you need focus on sensations in the body and control your mind. уWhen you do yoga your thoughts need immerse only in practise and you don't get distract by something else. When you start to practise another thoughts must be turned off. The difficulty is that people don’t know how to turn off their heads and they cannot focus on meditation yoga and therefore they cannot get more pleasure from it. Also some asanas, for example, handstand is one of the most difficult asanas in yoga and for many people it seems uncomfortable and complicated to do. Yoga, of course, is famous for your static asanas. There is no a dynamic moving, you need do one move in several intervals and it is more difficult than, for example, cardio workout.

To be a professional you need:✅

find a teacher or school there you can give a soft start;

visit 2 or 3 times a week;

watch video on youtube or by electronic course there teacher explain how to do asanas correctly without hurt to you health because yoga can be traumatic;

practice yoga on your own at home for 30-40 minutes every day;

practise meditate every evening and monitor your body and condition;

practise breathing technique and monitor your thoughts.

I think my recommendation can be useful for beginners only if this is done regularly.🙌🏻

65lb strict overhead press today. i’ve actually not done a strict press before, but 65 is well above beginner and novice averages and just under intermediate level. not bad for first try! i def thought i’d max out at 55

and then 15 wall walks which went better than i thought they would, hardly any weakness at all and my handstand balance was firm. i just have to learn how to breathe better with a heartrate of 180 while i’m in a handstand position upside down lmao

so my back is waaaaay stronger than it used to be bc 4 weeks ago i couldn’t do a wall walk without folding my spine like a gymnast lol

[storytellingbadger]

“How about you try a pirouette?” she offered, “Don’t worry about a full 180, you might need a few attempts to get it—” Sun smiled innocently at her as he walked himself around on his hands, turning a full 360 handstand pirouette once, twice, three times, then almost a fourth before she waved a hand. “Holy sh-shizzles. Well done.”

He tried to shrug innocently, but it didn’t really work in a handstand. “Beginner’s luck.”

“Sure, pal. Come on back up – I’m sensing a theme here.”

(Excerpt from chapter five "Mirror Mirror" in "Sunspots, Craters and Mortal Things".)

Daycare Attendant handler in this fic is a fellow gymnast and dancer - or that's the idea. Hard to compete with an animatronic with Sun and Moon's articulation and skill!

My inability to draw hands continues to plague me. Have a good New Year all!

2024 dog sports goals

Bree

Have a good retirement

Be healthy

Lots of belly rubs and short walkies

Haley

BE HEALTHY

Have fun with whatever she wants to do. Little bit of rally, some Hoopers, some scentwork. No pressure, no trialing probably. Just fun fun :)

Oh the one thing we will specifically work on is more work with actual distance boxes in Hoopers, and challenging us as a team with them

Also both the girls are now allowed to do whatever they want. Ah, you don't feel like holding a stay? That's fine. You would rather lie down than sit? Cool whatever you want! You're barking for cookies instead of doing literally any behaviour? Here you go girls, have cookies! Senior Dog Privilege! You served your time!

... So many things. A baby is growing up and ready to do things!!

Conformation:

Championship?? Maybe??

Going to the Canadian English Cocker breed national speciality!

Agility:

Work the 2x2 weave pole method

Solid stopped contacts

Distance distance distance skills

Keep focusing on impeccable foundations and skill building. No full height jumps. No long courses. No pressure to trial. I want him to walk into a starters level trial for the first time with masters level skills. So most likely no trials in 2024.

Hoopers:

Distance distance distance obvs

Umm be an awesome demo dog for my classes

Rally:

Beautiful maintained happy heeling please

Amazing stunning perfect pivots

Keep up equal training on the left and right sides. No heeling side preference allowed!!

Possibly trial in CKC novice at the breed national

Ratting:

Keep building that really solid alert. His alert is pawing at it.

Build independence in finding the rat blind

Maaaaaybe trial in Rats Canada

Dock Diving:

Jumping off the dock!

Splishy splashy!!

Disc Dog:

Maybe. Catch a frisbee. One day. :)

General Training stuff:

Build a really solid stay. I've been slacking on this.

Train a good hold. He's a natural!

Encourage this beautiful calmness and neutrality we're starting to get for in public

Train more tricks! See how far we can get with trick dog titles perhaps.

Specific trick goals: roll over, roll in blanket, hop forward on back legs, put away toys, jump into arms, spin at distance and on verbal, leg weave, wave, handstand, put "hug" on command/have him do it for other people, sing/howl, hopefully more but let's not get ahead of ourselves lol

Especially focus on cute tricks that would be good for therapy work, performances, etc.

I must remember not to rush anything. I like trialing, but I will not race to it as fast as possible. I want him to be well beyond the beginner level before he trials in any sport, and be truly comfortable and have a very high value for the activity.

Do you have a workout routine?

No i don’t workout too much anymore I used to tho! For anybody wanting to gain muscle mass my advice is to focus on mind-muscle connection once you have that u are golden just workout whatever muscle group u want to grow until u physically cant do another rep (start out with as heavy as weight as u can handle without corrupting form) and allow one-two days of rest between workouts of that muscle group ❤️ and eat LOTS of protein!!! these days I just do yoga and stretch a lot I did gymnastics my whole childhood so I try to maintain that by staying flexible enough to do my old tricks. So fun to do cartwheels and handstands and back handsprings etc etc is the only reason I stretch! And I don’t have a car so I walk A LOT I think that helps keep my waist small or something. At a certain point of me having this tumblr I was running 2-3 miles a day and doing heavy weight lifting lol I change so rapidly! It rlly wasn’t worth the time investment for me working out multiple hours a day didn’t make me happy and I love my body no matter what! I like being skinny but it is natural for me it runs in my family I was only working out to make my ass bigger and back straighter but I realized I am already perfect naturally ! For real I got a huge ass pretty easily but I like myself better natural plus I hate how ass-obsessed our society is liek come on that is where poop comes out!!! 🙄🙄🙄 get over it!! I will never succumb 👎 but idk what it is like to be a man i don’t blame u guys!Anyways I wanna get into running again for health reasons

Anyways my old workout routine for huge ass: (for my girls who don’t believe it won’t make u happier plz feel free to find out for yourself I don’t gatekeep !)

All with 60 pound weight

Bulgarian split squats (5x15)

Single leg RDLS (5x15)

Reverse lunges (3x10)

Single leg hip thrusts (5x15)

All are per side of glute btw!

^ I would do this 3-4x a week but also do final reps of each exercise until I couldn’t do them anymore ! Oh yes and of course work your way up to 60 pounds start with body weight if u are beginner there is no other way to get the form right! Plus 2-3 miles or running daily but at first just as much as u can as often as u can!

every curl-video ever: this is how you should style your curls beginners edition

first you wash your hair with shampoo made from unicorn hair that costs like a hundred dollars and you have to order online

then you just scrunch curl cream in your hair but upside down in a handstand backflip push-up or something. you don’t have curl cream bc you treated your hair as if it was straight and now it’s not just like you? go buy that expensive ass cream

next you’re gonna want to hydrate your scalp with this oil handmade by the kardashians and therefore a 1000 dollars but it’s worth it i promise

then you diffuse your hair this one specific way. what you don’t have a diffuser bc you thought you and your hair were straight? now you need to buy a new hairdryer. i always use this one i ordered from amazon it was only like three thousand dollars

now you have curly hair and spent a shitload of money for products. do you like it? no probs not.

Adho Mukha Vrksasana is a variant of the Vrksasana, in effect an inverted version of the tree pose. It is described by another name in at least one major yoga text, and is a challenging yoga asana for beginners, owing to its demands on the practitioner's sense of balance.

Meaning of Adho Mukha Vrksasana Vrksasana is a tree pose in which one stands with the hand raised towards the sky. Adho Mukha Vrksasana can be termed as a tilted tree pose wherein one hand is supporting the entire body weight. It is hence a handstand pose. This asana when done by beginners has to be done very carefully as balancing oneself on one hand is challenging.

Ooh thanks!

I'm a very very beginner gymnast (started 6 months ago). I love being upside down and am finally starting to figure out handstands.

I cannot stand peanut butter but almond butter and jelly sandwiches and like my favorite thing.

I'm only 4'11" and done growing. One of my closest friends calls me her Favorite Pygmy Tyrant and my best friend refers to me as her Emotional Support Hobbit

[vixlenxe]

Watching the movement again, as well as listening to the explanation before taking a breath and trying again. It looked better than before, but not still quite right. "Maybe I'm thinking too much." Shaking her head she let herself fall into the splits to stretch out the cramp she could feel forming.

"Hehe~" The problem certainly wasn't that Yua wasn't flexible enough, perhaps more a problem of being unfamiliar to using the muscles in her waist. "Practice makes prefect as they say, besides, for a beginner to this style of dance, I think you're doing very well!"

Ivy choose to stretch her arms up, before folding herself into a handstand, walking around on her palms. "Don't worry, I had the same problem when I first started learning. Sajayah refused to not have me master hip control though. If I can do it, I'm positive you can too!"
