Thanks again for having me on Daniel, this was an awesome episode and I absolutely love the way you edited everything. It's organized, flows well, and highlights so many training clips which I truly appreciate. Cheers to a serious podcast & let the growth keep coming!
Why neck train so heavily like you do instead of doing an exercise like side lateral raises for overall muscle strength in that overall area? Doesn't neck training of this level cause breathing problems while sleeping?
Pleasure brother. This was a monster edit given it's 1.5 hours 😅
@@FitnessFAQs daniel is currently bulking on his editing
This was a great podcast, well done guys. I'm always learning
Always nice to see fitness content. (Not drama content disguised as fitness content) Been following you two for 2 years now. Keep up the quality.
I wish you guys could talk to my cousin who did 8 years in State prison. All they did was calisthenics besides getting a workout partner to get on your shoulders for squats. But he trained 6 days a week total body workout for 8 years. He got to where he was doing 1,000 + push-ups a day same goes for sit-ups and crunches. And he said depending on the weather and situation of the yard (outside) he would do 100 to 300 pull-ups a day and same goes for dips. They would play basketball for cardio. When he got out he was solid as a rock man had some of the thickest shoulders for a 5 ft 10 190lb man I had ever seen. He went to the gym with me and here is his numbers Bench: 255 1rm Squat: 335 1rm deadlift: 395 and keep in mind the deadlift was literally his first time deadlifting before being locked up and was performed on a Hex bar. After going to the gym for about 3 months he purchased equipment such as a power rack, bar, plates and a set of power block dumbbells and some rings. His program is a linear progression. He will start with Dynamic block and finish with max effort block. Then drops down to a entire month de load of just calisthenics movements upper and lower and goes back to what he learned in the Pin. After that back to dynamic and repeats the process. In prison he told me “you either get fat or turn into a fitness animal”.
First time deadlift 335 kg

Tell your cousin to make a fitness channel. He can teach his methods and make some money too while he's at it.
Volume and resistance breaks down muscle. Nutrition and rest builds it back up. No surprises there.
is he black
I really like this interview. I'm 55 years old and I've been natural all my life.. The bodybuilding and strength community needs more videus like this. Awesome job 👍🏿👍🏿.
Neck training is pretty useful specially for fighting. It enables you to hold longer when someone tries to strangle you
most importantly it stops you from getting KO'd
If you have a big enough Neck they couldn't strangle you at all
@@agnidas5816Well, it lowers the chances at least. I ain't surviving no Mike Tyson's punch even if I got a yoked neck.
Man I don't know why his channel is not growing
He is a legend
@@DavidVegaBurgos I was talking about Alpha Destiny bro !
Cos he's a fake natty, making it seem as if it's all his training methods, when it's by the needle, people are into channels that are on steroids but admit it, such as greg or naturals like Joe fazer..
@@breaks3085 even if he is I really don't care, I just like that guy and the knowledge he has
@@rahulshendre7089 but training on steroids an training as a natural are totally different, so you may feel he deserves more subs, but the audience/ followers are going for who they feel they can benefit from
the edited workout clips in the background really enhance the podcast. really appreciate that.
Finally the podcast i was waiting for since alex interviewed you.
Passion is palpable on this podcast and that's maybe the best part of it
I would suggest that the reason calisthenics athletes and gymnasts can go into power lifting and other weight training, and it doesn’t go the other way, is the scapula strength from skills that weight training practices never really hit. The scapular stability is very important on the key lifts. The bench press requires you to retract and depress the scapula to create a stable base to press from, calisthenics skill like planche and front lever develop a stable and strong scapula.
gymnasts also know more complex movements than your typical gym bro.
The legendary podcast everyone needed.
EPIC. What a treat of an episode. Two great Fitness UA-camrs sharing thoughts on training. Thank you so much. Greetings from Spain to both of you
Major props to the editor of the video also.
This is killer
Two of my All-Time favorite athletes! You two have taught me so much. Thank you
Awesome, I'm 62 yrs , very inspiring, and motivational. Thanks for your channel!
Amazing discussion, thanks guys. You are two real MVPs in the fitness industry. Love you both 💪🏅👑
Love both of you guys! Great job!
Wow. One of the best interviews ever on UA-cam in the fitness community
THIS VIDEO IS MY PREWORKOUT TODAY
LETS
FCKING
GOOOOOOOOO
I'm a life time natural getting back in to shape. (49). You know how pleasing it is listening to guys like you, its amazing. Turns out all I did in the past are paying out in full. I was worried at first, but as you stated, never rush progress. Nice chat!
Lovely discussion. A video full of knowledges and motivation. Love you both !
Love these podcasts. So much precious knowledge attained.
Thank you! This podcast really really helped me stay on track!
Two of my favorites in one vid. Hell yeah.
Excellent discussion, thanks guys!
By far the most informative podcast I ever heard!
Did snap city and still do to this day (minimalist type training) there are many variables to work with that can make any training routine safe and progressive. LOL IM 54 this year been LIFTING and EXERCISING BRA since 1986 my metal therapy.
Great interview guys. I did just a bit more on weighted abs today. Thanx!
Alex knows his stuff! his channel underrated in my opinion.
Great info!
Lifting without working on my abs led to a lot of back tightness. I don't think a ton of ab work is needed, but enough to take some load off the low back is worth it.
Its 1 am now, I need to sleep but I found this podc. Two of my fav fitness ytber talking about training and stuff. Damn i really need to fix mt sleeping schedule. Btw the podcast have so much great info that any person who is a beginner or an advanced can still get useful info to apply in their training. Hoping to see more podcasts in the future!
Idk why I’m watching at 3:33 am ffs
Overall very informative video 🔥
I totally agree with carryovers from calisthenics to lifting. For my instance, straddle planche 6sec transferred to bench 85x3, dips50x11. Anyway, thanks for spreading knowledge Daniel!🙏
Great collaboration. I found out about Fitness FAQs from Alpha Destiny. :)
Hell yeah. My two favorite fit dudes
Great interview!!
You mentioned the need for calisthenics practitioners to utilize more isolation exercises. I've seen your videos about tricep extensions and would love a video talking about what isolation exercises would be the most beneficial to someone only doing the main calisthenics movements and what they're missing without them.
both you guys should make merch, tshirts or something, anyway love to hear another podcast from these two legends
Great episode 👏
another great video!
Watched the one you done on alexs channel now time for this
It would be awesome if you interviewed Natural Hypertrophy.
I agree so much with the muscle memory aspect. I stopped training for like 6 months cause I didn't get the vaccine and wasn't allowed to go to the gyms, but I eventually did get the jab and forced myself back to the gym, I lost most of my strength, it was a little depressing, but I kept my head up and trained and after a few months I was back to my old strength and even made a bunch of PRs in my squats and weighted dips.
gonna watch this vido slowly man, seems damn good
Thanks guys!
Woooooow that intro fitness warrior training
realy good podcast!
My bodybuilder friend once said calisthenics is more complex than lifting, even push-up can recruit more support muscle than bench press.
And yes in my experience I can easily transfer my strength to weight and can isolated without problem, but I stick with bodyweight and sometimes weighted.
of course a pushup recruits more muscle fibers, you have no surface to push against which will activate a lot of muscle groups to keep you stable
Pushups are awesome
Nice video....I'm looking at training in a different way now.
What a time to be alive⚡️🤙🏼 two of my favorite fitness experts talking things I could only wish to discuss with someone, amazing really fortunate to have people like you in this world LFG🏴☠️
Hello, friend. Very nice exercise. Thank you for sharing. Good luck to you.
FINALLY
Legends and my favourite youtubers
Yeah, I've always had a thick neck. Makes it difficult to find shirts that fit but otherwise it's pretty good. :)
But you be looking mean bro thick necks are the bomb for frame
Daniel do a podcast with a street lifting athlete it will be awesome
Podcasts are the future
Rotations are key for longevity at the intermediate stage
Hey Daniel, he said that you should change workout variation, i agree with that. I will change neutral pull to pronated pull up after some months etc. But I have a question should I need to change bicep curl variation. If needed to change then hammer curl will not target my bicep more effectively. And would i change variation of Barbell squad.
This is cool crazy, you two sound like how I think.
Calsthenics athletes have an easier time translating to weightlifting than weightlifters to calisthenics because they have a higher body weight to strength ratio. With weight lifting you can bulk up(which for most people usually involves gaining a bunch of fat) and make "progress" whereas in calisthenics that cannot be done.
How do you bulk in calisthenics then ? , so you are progressing if you gaining more body weight to lift?
GOLD
Can't believe I got through this entire video :D
12:52 . B beg to differ. I did benching that way and blew through my old plateau like nothing then stopped cause I am not interested in bench, just wanted to be able to tell people I am not weak. Barbell bench is hell on the shoulders. Not my delts - my delts were fine, i benched with great form. My whole shoulders get so flipping tight - pro power lifters have this issue too and they get too tight to squat.
Only thing is I spread it out over 5 days.
It was actually applying theory to try to get the most out. People try to play numbers games but they suck at it. They cannot theory craft an optimal program for the most part.
One of the reasons it worked so well is because bench is not a test of strength - it is a test of skill. your body likes to forget that position as quickly as it can cause it is so unnatural so developing that skill is really super difficult.
But you have to actually pay attention to notice that. Your awareness has to be high enough and your memory good enough to where you subjectively notice and track how you feel during the movement. Most people are not capable of knowing themselves to that degree.
It is also dang hard to actually get full chest activation in that movement. It's why body builders have a better pound for pound bench than powerlifters usually - cause the body builders use many exercises like cross over flies angled upwards to get full chest activation.
im 40 tghis year and only started working out a year and a half ago. very sad that i didnt start this years ago!
perfect
A bad session is better than no session cause yr still build that muscle.
You should get the Knees Over Toes guy on here next
Who is Daniel, which program are you talking about! i need actionable info!
Result ; Enjoy, be patient, consistent and sustainable training, do not change your program until you achive on that program and continue to learn. Thankyou guys.
Intensity each workout. Ez
Yes yes yes yes!
As of lately my elbows and armpits hurts when doing pull-/pushups.
Guess its time to take a little break
ua-cam.com/video/LAgzh6KSUu0/v-deo.html this could help elbow tendonitis
myb change the variation if you havent done that
Do you tuck or elbows in or let them flare/turn out? Are you using a bar and the floor or rings?
@@Trajce_Hybrid I think it started hurting soon i tried other variations.
@@hekkrjs2698 Prolly more tucked in. And yes mostly using a bar
Good programs are key.
Daniel's Body by Rings program is great.
Jeff Nippard's beginning hypertrophy is also awesome (has 3 splits so it's like 3 programs in 1)
I've actually modified his full body 3*week to 2*week.
I'll have to have a look at one of Alpha Destiny's programs sometime because I really like his weighted calisthenics thing alongside the traditional weights
No daniel! You just wasted the potential of doing 90 shorts! :) nice vid man
He can make these into shorts
Can you please be a little more specific and detailed for us vision impaired viewers that count on the audio aspect of your training, thank you for your advice, peace
1:06:33 He's now promoting these pump reps lol
What about damage to the knees
Heard the podcast already
0:16 Homie looks like he hit the blunt
Anyone please reply,,,,if i push up 30-40 time for 1-2 month at age 16 ...will my height stop growing?
How do a man not love the gym? Soon as i walk pass a gym i get excited as fvck!
This guy's voice is like God.
Full body 3 times a week is my sweetspot
If i could do a pull up i wouldnt go near the pull down machine
Bro there should really be highlights of these podcasts because as much as some of us would like to sit through them , we just don't have enough time😞
There are timestamps....
you can also watch 10 minutes each day and aventually youll get throw it
I guess studies can wait an hour
I'll give you one better: WHEN is AlphaDestiny?
I feel like I got kicked in the head by chuck Norris in a good way , so many truth drops around every corner even in the end!
its funny how hes talking about various exercises for any other part but on abs he says you can do one (crunches) rotfl. like all those core, stability, spine, rotation (and so on) muscles dont matter when it comes to abs.
40:17 "using people as weights". I thought if you're in prison and not strong enough to use whole person just use part of a person (leg or torso).
20:07
Brother of stipke
I think it's the same guy in both pictures tbh
aight then ill try 500kg
Dirty bulk is almost a must. Just eat as much as you can as long as you feel healthy. Eat earthy if you don’t.
Only natural limit is time
so based as hell
idk if i like the alex dude
Crossover
Your max push up
This is already bodybuilding and not Calisthenics
Weight exercises are superior for building strength, which will have carryover to callisthenics.
