i could try this but it would lead to some fatal injuries

[XxEskimo22xX]

why is this called "germans"?

[GymnasticBodies]

Because I learned it from the German Jr National Team during a joint training camp between the USA and Germany!

If you hear me shout "F*CKING Germans" in the Gym it has nothing to do with the people... "more this exercise is hurting meee!!!" lol

[timh88au]

Oh, I hoping I could get a pair that would give me super-strength too. I don't have a prescription. :P

Would you use these as a progression for planche pushups? I can't hold a planche for more than 2 seconds. Should I attempt these yet?

[GymnasticBodies]

Germans are an excellent intermediate step towards planche pushups as the degree of leg swing that you use can be adjusted to suit your current level of strength. If planche pushups are completely out of your reach; swing the legs up quite vigorously. If you have nearly developed enough strength to make a serious run at planche pushups; swing only hard enough to complete each rep.

tried these yesterday, they are fantastic! I can feel the right muscles activated, just had to make sure there isn't any arching..

[kdevojedi]

that kid is probable 1 of 30 people in the world who can do that

[azarian84]

1 of 30, wow! I guess if making up exaggerated statistics makes you feel better about not being able to do it then that's cool.

[kdevojedi]

no sense of humour. you must lead a hard life.

[azarian84]

[templje]
