I appreciate your feedback! It's true that simply increasing reps of basic exercises like push-ups isn't always the most effective way to build strength, however, this video focuses on the conditioning phase in calisthenics training, where a higher rep range is key for building endurance and work capacity. Someone repping out 50+ deficit push-ups is beyond the scope of this intermediate/advanced workout, and likely at the athlete/elite level of training. In which case, a "level 4" workout wouldn't be appropriate for them. You're also headed in the right direction by understanding that traditional and deficit push-ups represent different strength levels, and if this were a strength-training workout and not a conditioning workout, you would see less reps and more advanced progressions. This video follows the BEST Method protocol, which is a "5-level" system I designed after working with hundreds of clients and educating just as many trainers around the world on the art and science of calisthenics training. This system is not going fall in line with the mainstream social media calisthenics most people are used to, and I'm proud of that because it was created to be progressive and achievable for the average person, regardless of their physical limitations. It is also the only system that actually provides a structured framework for calisthenics enthusiasts of any level, from fitness beginner to elite athlete, to track their progress and gradually increase their fitness level effectively and systematically. I encourage you to try out the full video and experiment with the different exercises and levels I'll be sharing on my channel to see how they fit into your own training goals. PS- feel free to share footage of your workouts for some feedback 💪🏽
@BESTMethodFit i definitely appreciate the detailed Feedback! What i would agree in is that a high Rep range is a conditioning gauge, though a slightly less count with a Higher range of motion is even better! I only say this because some people that are on a good path might be discouraged by hearing things Like that. In my experiences especially push up. Counts translate poorly from one person to the other, because speed of execution and range of motion (bottom and top) vary and of course body size and weight. A lot of people after Hearing that number Focus on the number at the cost of their beatiful form. Anyway, appreciate the answer. Till the next one!
@@xxdemestrosxxAgreed! Proper form should never be sacrificed for a vanity measure. Ultimately though, if someone is willing to sacrifice form to say they can do it, it doesn't matter what anyone tells them, with that mentality, they'll find a way to cheat their way to any # of any movement. And we both know the saying- cheaters never prosper- it goes for calisthenics training too. Beyond that though, someone who is truly at Level 4 according to my system, wouldn't be intimidated by that large # because they would have been progressively working toward it this entire time as they moved through the first 3 levels. Hopefully these levels-based workouts educate and/or humble quite a few of those people in the process ;)
people saying you should do 50+ push ups never go chest to floor
