      4:36 That's not correct. The rectus femoris (largest quadriceps), is a unique muscle, as it not only crosses the knee joint, but also the hip joint. This means in addition to extending the legs, it also strongly assists in hip flexion. The calfs also extend the feet and curls the toes as well, to avoid deductions for flexed feet and bending the toes. So if you want to compete in gymnastics, you need to do this: ua-cam.com/video/sbOuIfubuds/v-deo.html Can you do that? That's called a matrix leg extension. You can make it near impossible by doing it on one leg only.

    I think regarding the chicken legs problem, everyone should stretch and train their legs to be functional. You don't have to go to failure to build muscle but just doing basic movements like stretching, pistol squats, etc can be a good way to have healthy legs without increasing their size. It also doesn't fatigue the body and affect skill training. It barely takes any time either.

    I went from pure calisthenics to a more street lifting / Hybrid style of approach many of these reasons. For me focusing on Street lifting meant i would always focus on a few fundamental movements that i could constantly track without being overwhelmed by choice. On top of that it meant i would also hit my legs - so no chicken leg syndrome 😏

    Hello guys regarding training legs I agree with you it definitely hinders your progress if your goals are static skills but you cannot neglect them you can still train them not in a hypertrophy style but more likely explosive like gymnast do i see a lot of high level gymnast with decent legs not like bodybuilders but you get the point much love.

    • @SaturnoMovement
      @SaturnoMovement  6 місяців тому +2

      You can absolutely train them even with a focus on hypertrophy and achieve a beautiful Planche and Front Lever. That said, all things being equal, your statics will always be better if you don’t train them, even the way you mentioned it :) Gymnasts train legs. Gymnasts who are specialists in rings don’t.

    The problem with legs in calisthenics movement is that the whole movement is an upper body specialization.
    It would be best to graduate to gymnastics or martial arts, where legs become as important as upper body strength.
    There are many leg exercises that are not included here that build huge legs without weights.
    Shiko (sumo stomps), archer squats, and pistol squats just to name a few.

    Hindu Squats can build legs very well. Use a progression to build up to at least 300 reps. That should take about 10 minutes. IF you can do 500 in 15 minutes you're doing very well.
    You can also use a weight vest. Nothing builds my quads like Hindu Squats.

    I think another issue or at least something to consider with calisthenics is the risk to reward ratio for some of the exercises. For example, a handstand pushup is a very technical and very difficult move. Your chance of injury is far greater when using that move to train shoulder strength than if you were to use another method such as a dumbbell shoulder press or a machine press. I think it's very good to have a solid foundation in basic training principles and how muscles work because we need to understand the difference between Strength, and skill. Strength is general, skill is specific. If you want to have stronger shoulders to improve your handstands, then we know that we don't necessarily need to perform the skill itself to do so. You can do a very safe and effective exercise such as a dumbbell shoulder press, while keeping the skill training of a handstand separate. The strength gains you get from a safer and more measurable exercise will transfer over to your skills because strength is general. And because the exercise is safer, you have a reduced chance of injury while still gaining a big reward. Stronger shoulders = better handstands. Skill training such as handstands and planches should be treated as such, skills, NOT strength training exercises. Hope that makes sense.

      Certainly an interesting topic to cover in full detail. I agree with many points here while disagreeing with others. While a stable-less-technical exercise ‘could’ lead to more rapid gains, calling it "safer" is a stretch in my opinion. More context is needed, and a comment wouldn’t do justice here. Also, for an untrained beginner, a chest-to-wall handstand push-up can indeed pose a greater risk than a dumbbell press, but that person should not even be attempting a chest-to-wall handstand push-up in the first place. However, learning a pike push-up correctly with proper progression is as “safe” as a military press, with the word “safe" being a very subjective term. In short, I understand your point, but categorizing calisthenics as more injurious than weightlifting is not the answer here. I appreciate the discussion on these topics to move the community forward. We'll cover this in future videos! - Gab0

      ​@@SaturnoMovement Yes agreed I don't want there to be any misunderstandings, I'd definitely watch a video discussing this topic if you made one. I am definitely not categorizing weight lifting as safer than calisthenics, by the way because it certainly isn't especially if we consider Olympic lifting or power lifting (arguably some of the more dangerous sports with a huge injury risk). I think we agree more than we disagree. I've seen many of your videos where you emphasize proper technique and training. So I'm speaking just generally. But anyways, I've been a fan of your channel for awhile and appreciate your content. Thanks for the conversation.

    5:56 Best of Both Worlds: Gymnastics
    In gymnastics, you need both statics and dismounts, which are saltos and flips off the apparatuses. They both tax the upper and lower body, and a triple back salto (flip) off the still rings is far more impressive than a 500lb squat. Enjoy the PAIN and TORTURE💀💀💀

  • @thisdude9363
    @thisdude9363 4 місяці тому

    It's all about difficulty. High level calisthenics dudes know all the tricks to making their upper body routines rip muscle fiber and help them build bigger muscle, but too often they stick to high rep sets of regular bodyweight squats, or minor variations. The key is high difficulty single leg work, taking into consideration how big you want to be and what you need to do to keep your legs proportional.
    It's either that or just literally do anything to add weight. You don't need dumbbells or a bar if you're absolutely strapped for space or money. Just hold something heavy, dudes. Anything. Squat with a big ass bag of canned goods as long as its heavy enough.

    Naturally increasing testosterone is never a bad thing. Having a midweek pause from upper body training (push, pull, legs) is beneficial for recovery anyway. It’s not a massive inconvenience to do squats, hamstring curls, calf raises, leg press, leg extensions and lunges over an hour workout.

    My thing about it #4, I've come to wonder why calisthenics guys don't start practicing sprints actually. Gymnasts need to sprint to flip/tumble on their floor routines, this does work on leg muscles and you can build leg muscles by sprinting, take a look at sprinters. Also, gymnasts do a lot of jumping and "squat" type of movements for their floor routines too or like balance beam work (more so the girls) but still. I think, doing a little more gymnast stuff can help with leg muscle development.

    • @SaturnoMovement
      @SaturnoMovement  6 місяців тому +1

      Great point! Point 4 needs an entire video dedicated to it. Sprints are great and won’t build massive legs, however, the “problem” of recovery still applies. Again, not training legs at all is only reserved for those trying to FULLY maximize static skills. That said, it’s 100% possible to have great leg development and power while having clean static skills! -Gabo

      Even if you don’t compete some people really want to have the “best Planche” they can have, and for that training legs is useless. Our take is simple: do what makes you happy. No shame in not training legs, and no shame in trying to do both (which is absolutely possible). Everyone has the right to do what they want. -Gabo

    • @SaturnoMovement

      You are free to disagree, but I don’t agree with you. You need basic strength, mobility and strong ankles can for sure help. You can get that with 20min of mobility work and some running a week. However barbell squats, deadlifts and heavy leg training will do more harm than good. 99% (if not 100%) of world champion freestylers don’t train legs for a reason. It can help, sure, but it will be more beneficial to practice more freestyle or rest. Plus, freestyle includes statics, so no. -Gabo

      We can’t cover everything in a single video, my friend. Of course, we are aware of the sport of Street lifting and the importance of legs, given that the Squat is a competition lift. I was aware I missed that point after we filmed the video, but this video was done extremely fast, one day before Yass left back to Spain, with no script, just free-flowing. Don’t assume we have a narrow definition or knowledge because we didn’t address a single point in a video that contains 6 points. This video was not only about leg training, otherwise that would’ve been addressed. We’ll do justice with a dedicated video on the subject of lower body training and calisthenics. -Gabo
