>FAQ
>Which routine to begin with?
What are your goals?

>Skills and Gymnastics: Do Foundation

>Strength: Do Foundation or Build your own routine with Overcoming Gravity

>Aesthetics
>Easy mode - Join a gym/google BarStarz/do wighted exercises
>Hard mode - Do Foundation or Build your own routin with Overcoming Gravity

>I'm REALLY overweight:what do?
Stop eating like a hippo and cardio, cardio, cardio. Don't forget to start a routine.

>How difficult is it to actually snap my shit up/how dangerous it is while doing bw exercises?
The connective tissue that runs along your joints takes a lot more time to be strengthened than your muscles, and having great muscular strength is certainly not any indication of having strong joints and tendons; progress slowly and do mobility exercises.

tl,dr: Take it Slowly

>Can I do Foundation 1 and Handstand 1 simultaneously, or is it supposed to be one after I'm finished with the other?
Read the book

I'm stupid: Yes, they are built to be worked out in conjuction.
e.g.: mon Foundation, tue Handstand, wed Foundation, thu Handstand, fri Foundation, sat Handstand, sun Rest

>All gymnasts are manlets, am I to tall to do bodyweight?
You can still do bw but the taller you are (go and play basketball, bruh!) the harder it will be.

>What equipment is needed for Foundation?
>F1,F2,H1
Stall Bars or Something to hold on to for Body Levers/Dragon Flags and stretching exercises
Horizontal Bar or Rings
Parallel Bars
Elevated surface/Box for exercises with elevated feet

>F3,F4,R1,H2
At this point joining a gym or having necessary equipment should not be a issue (in that you should already have everything or joined a gym properly equipped)

>Can I lift 2 to 3 times a week and do bodyweight? If so what would be recommended?
Yes, just ask anons.
