    Direct challenge to the guy in the grey hat: let's both post a video of doing a pistol squat, pull up (strict form, chest to bar), and dip (strict form, pause at bottom) pyramid circuit from 1-20 where 1 is a pistol and pull up and for each those you do 2 dips. Then talk to me about needing to intensify the basics.
    I will put a thousand dollar bet you cannot do it and I can.

  • @tom6567
    @tom6567 Рік тому +1

    When training to true failure, I mean proper failure, trained failure that take months to achieve this type of intensity guys, most don't have the patience...so when training to failure.. exercises kind of mean shit. You can push a car up the hill to FAILURE and you will develop. So what exercises do you WANT to build skill at is the question, up to you and your goals.

    HI! I've been working out for the past 5 months at home with simple movements like pushups, squats, pullups, etc. I have built up the strength/endurance to rep 100 squats for 4 sets as a normal amount in my workouts! Does doing any more reps increase muscle gain? Or is it simply only endurance gain beyond this? Would love to hear your thoughts about the reasons to go further and beyond! Or to cut back on the reps. Love the talk 👌

      Strength training will also build muscle but training for raw strength normally means pushing a higher weight for less reps leading to less hyper trophy as less muscle fibres are torn this way, that’s why body builders are so huge but are nowhere near as strongmen or power lifters, even ones of similar stature

    Theres a study i remember seeing that you get the same power and strength gains from slow controlled push ups that you do from heavy bench press
    To make any excercise harder you can add more reps, do reps alot slower, add pauses or change you body angle
    Lots of ways to progress
    But you will have far less chance of injury from bodg weight and it improves your core, your stability, your joint health and propeioception alot more than liftinf weights

    Bodyweight dips and chins will only get you so far. After getting 4x20 dips and a set or 3 of 15-20 pullups then add weight. The reason for such a high number ...you want to master moving your body thru space then you can add weight and linear progress 2x week then if you stall then have a heavy day and a light day.

      @@frog-cy7rw you definitely build muscle doing weighted calisthenics. But you were talking about increasing your bodyweight. That is different than adding external load to your current physique.
      When I was 135 and did a 45lbs added I could get 3 reps when I lost 10lbs I actually gained reps with the same weight. Now I'm 125 and can do 45lbs added for 8 reps.
      Since your bodyweight changes daily you should be mindful of that. 2-5 lbs added to your bodyweight can make a major difference in performance. Reps may decrease. If you can control how much weight you gain then you should be fine.
