  • This is My Weighted Calisthenics Workout which is Full Body Strength Training in one workout. Here I do a push pull legs workout in a giant set to maximise time. Today's weighted calisthenics workout is a 3x3 where we are focusing heavily on strength, looking to maximise our strength training and lift as heavy as we can. Although this is weighted calisthenics I am doing the kettlebell press, this is not an accident, it is replacing the weighted dip for my pushing exercise, I had a tweak in my chest and found dips and push ups aggravated it so I opted for a vertical pushing exercise so decided on the kb press. I am alternating between the weighted pull ups and weighted chin ups
    to get the benefits of both but I do enjoy both, the leg exercise is the weighted lunge
    In this video I go through my weighted calisthenics warm up, weighted calisthenics rest times, and how to adapt exercises. I am alternating my workouts of 3x5 and 3x3 with the same exercises, I'm hoping this chest niggle goes away and I can get back to do weighted dips for my weighted calisthenics workout. Some may also consider this a minimalist workout which is it, or a minimalist weighted calisthenics workout, It's just one exercise per movement or major muscle group but I find it very effective. I am also only doing 2 strength workouts a week and it is working well with progressions.

    Nice man! Currently doing a full body routine with a focus on weighted ring pull ups, weighted ring dips and weighted pistol squats.
    Also ring archer push ups, rows and single leg RDL and it’s been great so far. Starting my third week of it tomorrow

    Great workout! Been sticking to 8+ reps with my training in case I forget about my injuries as I'm going through exercises. Hopefully next month I'll get into lower reps with more weight to get those strength gains!

      You can always add them in as a test to see how you feel just one set before your sets of 8 to get used to it and see if your body can handle it

      @@LeeDowningKeat So, it seems my subscapularis doesn't like the positive with my full weight, but I can do negatives. I was able to do 8 reps to drain the muscles(mostly grip still), just before I started to feel it in my subscap. My deltoid seems to be MUCH better now though, which is great! Thanx for pointing this out, I would have babied that area for much longer otherwise lol
      Forgot to mention I paused at the top for 1-2 seconds before doing the negative.

    Great video man, you have a new faithful subscriber. So why alternate between pullups and chinups? I was thinking of just ditching the pullups and doing only chinups. Will I lack in anything by doing this?
    I Naturally have developed chest and back. But arms are skinny. If dips are done vertically I can put more stress on triceps. On chin-ups, I can place more stress on the biceps. So bigger arms are of higher priority. I also do a bit of a isolation exercises for them. Thanks!

      Thanks for watching and welcome to the channel, trying to build a community here so are most welcome. Any questions don't hesitate to ask. I like doing both so that's why i do both. If you are focused on arms then chin ups are hands down the best exercise for bicep strength and size. Coupled with the dips and you will have bigger stronger arms. You won't lack anything unless you want to be good at pull ups or want to learn exercises that utilise that grip. Say muscle up or front level

    Great upload dude! Single arm press is actually my favourite pushing exercise. Do you weight ring dips or bar dips when your chest isn’t playing up?

    • @LeeDowningKeat
      @LeeDowningKeat  9 місяців тому

      Thanks dude, yes I'm.a fan of them. Bar dips ATM, usually playing with the same weight as I Pull up as I do it straight after the Pull Up. As soon as the chest is back go normal will be adding it back in

    • @LeeDowningKeat
      @LeeDowningKeat  8 місяців тому

      Good day Oskar, atm this weighted workout I'm only doing it 2x a week because it's heavy loads. Sets of 3 and sets of 5 so 80-90% of my max loads. You could do more often if intensity was lower if you wanted too. It's all about managing your recovery

    • @LeeDowningKeat
      @LeeDowningKeat  5 місяців тому

      If your short on time then sure, intensity works at building muscle. Long term not sure it's as good as more volume would be
