Calisthenics Too Easy? Do This

Yep 3sec eccentrics, full ROM, slight pause at the bottom and exploding on the concentric are unknown to a lot of people

[rodrejean]

Humbling and a massive reality check tbh💯

The weight belt around the legs for nordics is genius 👌🏼

Deficit push up is underrated...your chest will get sore after doing that (with proper form, train to failure, slow on negative rep)..you can using parallette bar or hexagonal dumbell...this is work for dips too

[rosemarietolentino]

I do believe you are one of the most qualified person to be getting information on how to train properly.
Stay Awesome!

[ZainYousaf-dgxj]

Totally agree. I still use push ups with strict tempo and I love the way it has improved my chest and my shoulder mobility/stability.

[janailtongoncalvesdesouza]

I think combining both is the golden path. Not one or the other.

I'm. Starting to. Believe that the best training is weight and calisthenics. Calisthenics as a warm up or cool down to make your body naturally move while your working sets are with machines, weights cables etc but also exercises that follow the mosh natural movement

[nickstanton]

I feel my chest more stimulated and pumped doing deep pushups using platforms to get a deeper range of motion than using dumbbells or any bench press movement

[chrisevil]

a lot of big bodybuilders in the gym cannot do 100 pushups, cannot do 10 pull ups, etc. these are the exercises that form the foundations of strength.

[AstroSully]

Yep even the basic movements can become difficult with adjustments and tweaks.

[scottstheemcee]

Just added a pause at the bottom of my dips yesterday, game changer! Love the channel mate.

[PATRICKDORSEY-lz]

Calisthenics will never not be difficult. People are avoiding the hurt stuff.

Excellence is always in the fundamentals

The concept to keep in mind while programing your workouts is fighting off homeostasis periodically which is your bodies abilities to stay the same and become more efficient at a specific stimulus(tempo, plyo, bodybuilding etc). Changing modalities every training block will keep the body guessing and adapting which will smash through any plateaus. You can super charge this concept with the same modality twice(body building x2 or athletic perfofmance and body building)by just changing moving patterns/lifts but following the same rep scheme/intensity.

It's easy to to 10 kipping pull ups, it's really hard to 5 full range of motion super slow and controlled pull ups.

[murdockqotsa]

Yup.. people say they do a certain number of reps but they're really just cheating themselves. When you start worrying less about the numbers and focus on how you feel, on doing things perfectly and making things very difficult for yourself your gains explode.

[eltonmombeshora]

I dare some of the weightlifters to do 30 full range of motion pushups (chest touches the floor and elbows lockout at the top).

[jaymincorn]

Nevermind the discussion The Nordic curls using a belt to strap yourself to the bench looks really cool

Veteran: I have been training for 20 years, I can do 10 pushups
