hi to everyone maybe who has some experince in the coachng activity can says to me a better opinion, on the other hand if someone had my same situation can help me now..

i'm in a steady situation since to much time in what is concerned with circles and flares..

i can do to circles on a high mushroom but if i try to go on a lower mushroom my legs touch the floor to i have to bend them..also in the flares on the floor my legs are opened but very low and i can't swing them faster!!

my physique is strong and big in the upper body but (i'm 176 cm) , caused from 13 years of football and 8 yeard if judo i have big muscles in the legs (the circumference of one my leg is 68 cm) and in the butt, my calves are normal...from your opinion how much can the legs size affect the developing process of the circles and the flares?

these problems occur in the dynamic movements because i can do static strength skill (also here i have to work more), but seems that my strength is not enough for the dynamic!!

i have to quit with skills like flares o circles? there is something that can helps me?

thank to everyone

Are your legs as big as Jotchev's?

If they are, you can worry about it. If not, work more circles. Push your hips out more.

Get a floor mushroom and a pair of socks and start working basic mushroom drills there. Back even to 1/4 circle.

Or find a lower mushroom or a pommel buck without the legs that is on floor.

yes my legs are bigger than jovtchev without any doubts...

consider that in the past i've broken my ACL so i did a lot of hypertrophy in my legs..

i see that also if i become strong in the biggest part of pushing exercise (i can do multiple 90° push up on the rings, planche push up) but also i can't lift my legs in the back of flares!

what do you think? i have to build up more strength on lower back and upper body?

Probably.

Then again, I doubt you're only 5'6 140 like Jotchev.
