    Beginner and what's to start with Calisthenics?

    Posted: 10 Mar 2020 07:53 AM PDT

    IF you are a beginner and wanna start with calisthenics, no matter if you are 100 kg or 40 kg, there is a lvl for everybody. But let's not hide the truth that if you are lighter you will have it easier to pull yourself up later down the road... Gravity you know...

    Here are some tips for you who wanna start with calisthenics training:

    1. Set realistic goals, don't aim for a muscle-up within 1 month if you are not even able to do one clean pull up. Start building that strength in the basics like, pushups, dips, pull ups, toes to bar and more. I would say take one your to build a good base of strength. This will help you progress later on to harder skills, it is worth it!
    2. Listen to people that know about training and working out and not just an influencer with a lot of followers. If somebody says "THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO GET IT" then you should stop listening. What I mean by that is, if somebody says this is the only way to learn the front lever, my way and says that you should be able to learn front lever within 3-6 months and say that to everybody no matter what height, weight, etc.... then there is missing some knowledge. It will be harder for tall and heavy people to learn static elements and can take up to 2-3 years before reaching them. But a person that is 50-60 kg will be able to learn the skills much faster because of the height and weight. BUT THIS IS NOT AN EXCUSE, I hear this very often "I AM TO TALL" stop complaining and work for it if you want it.
    3. Nutrien will help you tremendously to progress faster. Food is your fuel if you feed yourself with shitty food and skip the basics of eating that you need, Carbs, protein, fat. It might take longer for you to have the skills you want if you don't think about this. Eat your Carbs, eat your protein, eat your fats... A GOOD way to know what you eat is the app LIFESUM, download it, because it is free as well if you don't need the premium version.

    This was my 2 cents for today

    How to add another rep?

    Posted: 10 Mar 2020 10:30 AM PDT

    Hi, I've done the RR for about 6-7 weeks and I am quite happy with my strength gains. The progression I struggle the most with is definitely the pull ups. I started from 3x8 regular pull ups and now I achieved 3x6 weighted pull ups + 12kg (26 lbs). Unfortunately already a whole week I am unable to achieve something better. I mean that I can't even go for 7, 6, 6. I just can't add that f#ckin rep. Please give an advice how should I act in this situation. What should I do? If that info is important my daily calorie intake is around 2500-2600 kcal which is close to my TDEE or even a slight deficit because I burned some fat. Maybe I have to eat more? Please write your opinion. Cheers.

    Is the passive hang a good exercise to improve grip strenght?

    Posted: 10 Mar 2020 09:44 AM PDT

    I just did a passive hang for 2 minutes and my fingers kinda hurt, also my forearm feels a bit exhausted. I had my hands ~shoulderwide apart with my palms facing forward.

    Is it normal that my fingers hurt and does the exercise improve grip strength?

    Also, do you guys have recomendations for better exercises to improve grip strength?

    Thank you :)

    when i do push-ups, my hands are never equally aligned. please help!

    Posted: 10 Mar 2020 11:06 AM PDT

    it's like when i try to align my hands with each other when doing the normal push-up, it feels weird and it feels as if i can't do a single push-up.

    whenever i do a push-up, my left hand is never aligned with the right. it's always a bit underneath it.

    any advice? thanks in advance!

    Cut or bulk?

    Posted: 10 Mar 2020 11:45 AM PDT

    Height 185cm(6'1'') Weight: 91kg(200lbs)

    I've been bulking for 4 months now, my legs gained a little of a size, my strength improved. Hit my best at. Squats. At this point my chest and belly look ugly though. It's been like this every year, i bulked and even though I'd like to bulk longer, because my legs were still too skinny, i started to cut and look small with skinny legs after. W would also count calories and go slowly from maintenance level, that still happened. I dont know what to do this time. Should i keep up with this bulk?

    Performing 120 bodyweight squats, daily, will have what kind of effect. Positive or negative. If someone wants to give a detailed answer, I'm okay with that

    How to develop a good routine?

    Posted: 10 Mar 2020 10:50 AM PDT

    Hi all!

    I'm having a hard time developping a routine. I'd like some advices to be more regular and find a better balance between exercice and recovery.

    Here are a few elements about my situation and background:

    - 26 male 1m73 53kg. Type of guy that eats a 5 person meal, is still hungry but lost 1kg on the way. Used to train ju-jitsu, moay-thai and judo 10h/week but stopped brutally 7,5 years ago for health and schedule issues.

    - Temporary unemployed but moving to another country and starting a 4y job this summer. => Thus no investment in a gym or heavy equipment that I would need to leave here. => Doing Calisthenics and running or walking for anything in less than 4km from home.

    - Started end of October. Dryed and lost 2kg since. About 4 training a week for 30min each: monday for chest and arms, tuesday legs, thursday back, friday abs. Each time with 5-10 min of breathing exercices at the end.

    - Objectives: Get in shape to really use a gym at its 100% in September 2020. Get in shape to start again a fighting sport / martial art in September 2021. If possible, get to 70kg by that date.

    - Life habits: No junk food, max 1L of beer/week and only when out with friends, lactose intolerant, try to eat 3000 kcal/day, soja milk + peanut butter + nuts, 7-8h of sleep, 10-20min of meditation every morning, same with journaling. 30 sec abs hold + 15 sec 90° push up hold + 15 sec superman hold out of bed and double of each before bed.

    - Problems: A lot of allergies and living in a place full of allergens + Quite unstable social surroundings (i.e. In the last 2 weeks: Dad starting to talk about suicide just a week after I stopped taking Xanax, Grandma suddenly developping a rabid Alzheimer, best friend announced diagnosed depression + break up, my car broke for real, ...). These are my main reasons to move because it's very unhealthy and break most of my attempts of holding to good habits. I succeded to train only 3h in these 2 weeks, lost my sleep schedule because of anxiety back, got drunk while partying to relax a bit, stopped drawing also and journaled only every 2 days, and failed my No Fap challenge a few times (no porn involved at least).

    - Any method to use that unemployed time to its full potential? An idea on how to keep good training habits in troubled times? Any investment to make for only a few months?

    I guess this is a lot, but thanks in advance.

    Weighted Pull Ups - Am I missing something?

    Posted: 09 Mar 2020 01:23 PM PDT

    Twice a week I train in working towards the one arm pull up, one of the exercises involves weighted pullups. I've read in a couple different places that one should work toward an additional pulling weight 80% that of bodyweight.

    I am 6'0, ~185lb and have lifted for 4 years before starting bodyweight 3 years ago (mostly ring work until recently). Problem is that currently I am doing weighted pullups 4x60lb for 4 sets, and it seems improbable that I'd be able to do one at 150lb. I can warm up with unweighted pullups doing 15 reps for 3 sets with no issues, even my archer pullups are progressing well.

    Is there something I'm missing with the weighted, or is 80% BW unrealistic?

    For clarity my pull up (and I assume the implied on this sub) is with a wide grip on a rigid bent bar.

    Calisthenics Freestyle Training

    Posted: 09 Mar 2020 01:23 PM PDT

    Their is not many post about the freestyle training in calisthenics & Street Workout, I am passioned about this right here.
    This is something I compete in and also teach others that I workout with at my calisthenic gym in Sweden Stockholm Extremfabriken. I have seen so many people just say that you just gotta go for it when people ask for advice and that is just stupid advice. Yes it might be good for somebody that have the right lvl and know exactly what they need to do but lack the "motivation"

    ​

    But telling a beginner to just go for it might end up with bad landings and injuries.

    I try to break down the move in several parts and then work myself up to the whole movement.

    my number one tip is to record yourself and be objective when looking at yourself.

    end my second advice is to try again, trying a new skill and thinking that you will have it after 10 tries are just naive, yes you can get some moves that easy but some you will not.
