My Swedish ladder
Swedish wall ladder finally arriving
My Swedish wall ladder arrives Friday, anyone got any ideas or advice on whats best to do? I'm not looking at bulking up, just being more defined and flexible if I'm honest, I'm 43 not in bad shape but thought it's about time I started to actually care for myself

@Zara Doering there's a thought, I'd completely given that idea a miss but that's a nice skill for me to get
What do you actually want to achieve?
I want to look good while also feeling it and being able to move big weight in the gym, satisfying skills yk I know some people just want to be flexible though So what do you want to achieve? and why?

@Orfeas Onasis I'm aiming to be around 11st 4ish with a decent enough look, that's all it took me last time, I'm aware I'm older now but should still be manageable, I'm happy with how I look apart from the slightly under weight part
⏳ Feeling Behind? Read This.
Right now, you might feel like you are: • 1 year behind • 5 years behind • 10 years behind Maybe you feel like you should have started earlier. Maybe you feel frustrated that you are not where you want to be yet. That feeling is real. But here is the truth: If you do not start now, this is exactly how you will feel again in 1 year, 5 years, or 10 years. The gap does not close by waiting. It closes by starting. Not perfectly. Not all at once. Just by starting. That is why small action matters so much. • one workout • one walk • one push-up progression • one mobility session • one skill practice You do not need to fix everything today. You just need to stop giving more time to the version of you that keeps waiting. The best time to start may have been years ago. The next best time is now. 👇 Question What is one thing you can start today, even if it is small?

🧱 You’re Only 3 Steps Away From Your First L-Sit
The L-sit looks simple. But if you’ve ever tried it, you already know how deceiving it is. The good news is this. You are not far away. In fact, you are only three real steps away from your first L-sit. Most people just work on the wrong ones. The L-sit requires three things. Core strength. Pushing strength. And flexibility. Most tutorials talk about two of them. Very few talk about the third one that actually stops most people. Let’s clear this up. First is flexibility, and this is the one almost everyone ignores. If you cannot touch your toes while standing, the L-sit will feel impossible. Not because you are weak, but because your muscles are already maxed out in a shortened position. The L-sit puts you in a seated “chair” shape. If your hamstrings and calves are tight, your body has no room to express strength. If this is you, you need consistent toe-touch stretching. 30 seconds to 1 minute. Most days of the week. Adding light weight or gentle pressure actually helps here. Fix this, and the L-sit suddenly feels realistic. Second is pushing strength. You must be able to push your body away from the floor and keep your shoulders pressed down. That means creating space between your ears and your shoulders. Most people already have this strength. An easy test is pushing on dip bars, parallettes, or even sturdy objects at home and lifting your hips off the ground. If you can hold yourself up with locked arms and active shoulders, you’re good. If not, simple push-up variations where your feet assist are more than enough to build this. Third is core strength, specifically leg-raising strength. If you can lift your legs in a leg raise, you are strong enough for an L-sit. If not, that’s okay. This is where progressions matter. You can start with tucked leg raises. Then negatives where you lower from straight legs into a tuck. You can do these on the floor, on dip bars, or hanging from a bar. Once you can lift your legs with control, the strength requirement is no longer the issue.
