Yea man feels. Shredded my rotator cuff like 6 months ago and am just now able to workout again. Funny thing I didn't lose any of the skills, just can't hold them as long. (Front lever/human flag/L-sit/etc) Too scared to try the back lever for the foreseeable future

Bet you're the type that thinks watching grown ass men chasing a ball around a field in spandex makes you "tough."

Jakes on you boyo.

Chit. Take it easy and build up slowly. Nice though that you still got the skills.

I just started doing l sits. At like 15secs. I don’t have a good bar for pull ups to regularly do only at gym but I want to start doing muscle ups again.not sure if I can do one but I can bust out 12 pull ups and dips so probably.

Yeah this is one thing, it’s actually painful to do some of these skills

I'm not really into skill work but I love the standard weighted calisthenics.

My goal is full ROM handstand push ups against the wall. I've been doing elavated full ROM pike push ups and they're amazing.

I like the idea of calisthenics, but I feel too lazy to do any.

I'd rather lift and not look like twink, but congrats on the flag.
