More tips and an unpopular opinion?ππ» π
1οΈβ£ I highly recommend doing a lot of crust strengthening unless you already do hand balancing on the regular is this has a massive impact on your wrists.
2οΈβ£ Practice on something elevated (like a do on a bench) it is easier to get into the right position like that rather than doing it on the ground.
3οΈβ£ If you are a women like me leaning this I have heard people sometime say this is very much a male trick as they would anatomically have way more muscle in the upper body to start with but I personally want to make it clear that I never felt disadvantaged learning this because I am a women.
There is a lot of womenβs vs menβs push ups content out there these days and to be honest I donβt get it. If you do push ups as a women and fee that you get pain in your elbow it often comes from weakeness first. If you canβt do more than 10 push ups (on your toes) in a row and you feel pain in your elbows you probably just need to get stronger fist. Start with more sets and less reps and work towards less sets and more reps overtime ππ Donβt worry there is nothing wrong with your anatomy.

Stretch and Train with Aleks
I got flexible as an adult and now want to help outhers do the same πLetβs Goooo!!!
π₯Please read this ππ»π¨
1. Make sure you add a good warm up before you start.
2 PAIN π° If you know you have had back problems or experience pain that doesnβt feel right when stretching your back - STOP!
Our backs are complicated and made up of a lot of βthingsβ you donβt want to mess with. This is why for back flexibility in particular I really recommend getting a tailored program. Not trying to scare you of course. It is fun to stretch towards a bridge but if you do get pain and feel uncertain this is your sign.
A bridge is a very advanced position for any adult that tries to learn it and getting injured is simply not worst it.
If you have any questions about your bridge put it in the comments. I will be answering all questions on this post π

The true secret ππ»π
Is to work these exercises into your fitness routine so they feel seamless to do and you will then be able to do them consistently.
Donβt feel like you need a special session to practice this or do it everyday.
Just work those + a few more arm strengthening exercises into your routine 1β2 times per week and see the magic unfold.
You wonβt get the in a month them but you will also not get demotivated and drop it.
Making fitness as accessible and easy to execute is the real secret to all those moves.
