>>74070280>I have had sex with every woman you will ever know in your life.
My experience confirms this. Getting super good at pushups and chins and handstand pushups and everything else translated to like a 155x5 bench, 95x5 press, and idk maybe like 275x5 deadlift? It just doesn't make you strong.
>>74070353Getting super good at handstand pushups would mean pushing >90% of your bodyweight.
your other thread is still up >>74066537why did you desperately make this one?not enough parental attention? feeling lonely?
>>74070353Post body. If you are scrawny and cheat your reps this is true. Proper handstand push-ups are very difficult and involve nearly touching your chest to floor.
>>74070392It's a garbage exercise with no way to adjust the load, no way to progressively overload, shit rom, feels like shit to push failure upside down and you look like a clown doing it
>>74070406>your other thread is still up >>74066537(Cross-thread)>why did you desperately make this one?>not enough parental attention? feeling lonely?
>>74070414>no way to adjust loadYou obviously are a dyel or spent like a week with calisthenics. To improve load for pushups you slowly increase the angle until you are in a free handstand. Just like regular pushup you touch chest to floor. I only do calisthenics for accessories to ky lifts, but even i know this you faggot
>>74070481Decreasing the angle changes the exercise you dumb fuck
>>74070392No because of less range of motion.
>>74070406jeet seething

>>74070675oh shit wrong vid lol i forgot the thigh videos needs a catbox it's too big.
>>74070675tranny
>>74071035yuh
>>74070267Never understood the calisthenics only fags. I love chins and push ups but why limit yourself?Use barbells for legs, rings for pull/push and kettlebells for conditioning/explosiveness.Today I will do>Zercher Squat 5x5 - weighted Chinups 5x5 SUPERSET>kb swing - push up - ab wheel SUPERSET, 5 rounds>neck, pullover and wrist superset
I use calisthenics + bandsPush ups variations and bands for row variations
weighted calisthenics + press + back squatwhy would you need more?
>>74071281dyel
>>74070267Weighted dips+pull upsSissy squatsUpper body Isolationssingle leg deadlift focused on the stretchAnyway, something I've been doing lately are assisted pull ups. They're really good, they're also growing my back more than bw pull ups+improved my technique at them
>>74071290not an argument
>>74071302What argument you want from me, newfag? Lurk for 2 years, your routine leaves half the body untrained
>>74071301very arbitrary routine
>>74070675Nice pubes tranny
>>74071470>arbitraryI dont know what you meanbut I guess it is
dyel bros, rate my routine :)> mon: 10+10+10+5/6 pushups> tue: 5+4+2/3 pullups> wed: 10+10+10+5/6 pushups, 30 min run> thu: 5+4+2/3 pullups> fri: 10+10+10+5/6 pushups> sat: pause> sun: 6 miles run
>>74070280
>>74070267Guy on the rings looks pretty good. Minus the face.
>>74071470I don’t think you know what that word means
>>74070267I was a calisthenicsfag for years, but finally I graduated to dumbbells + calisthenics. Just buy a pair of heavy adjustable dumbbells (some up to 80 lb) and you're set for life. There's literally no reason to neglect weight training. I still don't think a barbell and lifting hundreds upon hundreds of pounds is necessary for the majority of people, unless you want to become a powerlifter.For general fitness and aesthetics dumbbells + calisthenics is everything you need.
>>74071484they've been lasered since then and will keep getting it every month forever
HOW DO I CHUD MYSELF UP FURTHER?
>>74070411This is the case with calisthenics weaklings in general, they stay small and skinny. Calisthenics works fine if you actually maintain a proper bodyweight. The problem is when they prioritize doing the movement over getting strong so they seek to decrease resistance by decreasing bodyweight which only keeps them weak. The chad move is to bulk while doing lifting AND calisthenics.
>>74071739>There's literally no reason to neglect weight trainingEh, body weight is great for low-budgets, beginners, and/or convenience. Getting good at pull-up bar routines is hard and worth doing, as well.>For general fitness and aesthetics dumbbells + calisthenics is everything you need.Agreed. Pair this with proper nutrition, and you’ll have an impressive body.
>>74071682stfu pencil neck
>>74070267Fatty cope
>>74072001I am a complete DYEL outofshapefag, and I can pump out 10 pullups like it's nothing.Agreed with the rest of your post though.
>>74071941>Calisthenics works fine if you actually maintain a proper bodyweightcalisthenics will produce pencil neck physiques at any bodyweight >>74066537
>>74070267accurate but I also lift in addition to calisthenics and I'm still dyelt. 5'6 145
>>74070280My condolences
>>74070280The last woman I talked to was my coworker who weighs over 300lbs and has a septim piercing so I hope you had fun with that.
>>74072104>I made two incredibly gay threads just to seethe about not being able to do a pull up
>>74072355pullups are literally a novice tier lift. i could do 5 untrained at 90kg took me maybe a month to do 10 at the same bodyweight
>>74072046you will never be a mogger, calisthenics pajeet
OP is right, i have a pencil neck and i used to be a calisthenics fag
>>74072628You're on right track, calisthenic dyels will never make it
I'm doing calisthenics right now.
>>74070675Nice to see you recovered
>>74070675>>74073184Are you feeling better tho? You seemed pretty sad from the previous thread
>>74073212haha no i was getting dinner ready earlier and started thinking about what if i had cancer and then i imagined my funeral, then i started screaming and crying so i had to sit on the floor crying for a while. i'm losing it.
>>74073279oh here is my leg since i was trying to post this earlier but forgot the file was huge.https://files.catbox.moe/mvyebc.mp4
>>74073279Do you have a mean of psychological support? Like therapist or a psychologistSeek also someone to a crisis momentIs there something you want to vent about to me?
>>74073298no and no i'll be fine it's just a rough patch i've had dozens if not more of them.
>>74073306If you are in a distress episode you can use a mental health hotline. Also seek a medicWish you the bestAlso, I am here if you want to talk about anything

>>74073333no i only post here, /o/ and /lgbt/
>>74073292Need a but of muscle mass. Going to the gym would be good for you both for your physical and your mental health :).
>>74073337wait how old are you i feel like i know you but yeah i'm definitely thinking of someone else
>>74073351its a secret
>>74073358ok yeah whatever you're definitely not him. my bad
>>74073370good
>>74071866Great move.What is your 1 rep max? I am getting into weighted calisthenics
>>74070267I need a calisthenics progression ASAP, I'd like to work it into my conditioning (especially isometrics , since lifts generally lack them).>captcha: PWYAY
my goal is to cut and mog this fag who keeps trying to do a one arm chin up.
>>74073348i actually do exercise a bit the way my legs are is probably from the hrt turning what was once pretty toned meat into jelly, it makes you understand how difficult it is for women when people expect them to stack up to a male in anything physical.
>>74073423Got it.How are your lifting stats for legs? Are you eating in a caloric superavit to build more muscle?
>>74072520Very cool, so you can do one arm pull ups now I take it? Since they’re so easy and you’re such a natural. Or did you just want to tell me about your novice ability like that’s some sort of flex?
>>74071581workout for more than 2 weeks then come back here
>>74073453i eat way too much and have low numbers compared to what i used to do. i can only really dead lift about 120 pounds now
>>74073485You need to eat more in order to build mass and strengthhttps://strengthlevel.com/strength-standards/deadlift/lbHere is the standards of strength in the deadlift
>>74073508so i'm around a novice for female and non existent for male, got it lol.
>>74073485What make you think you eat to much?
>>74073537i watch how much i eat and it's a lot. you'd be surprised how much fuel it takes to go through the opposite puberty as an adult.
>>74072520you're literally just lying. what a pathetic person you are.
>>74073559"A lot" how much? There are people eating 4000kcal and are perfectly healthy
>>74073606probably 2700-3000 a day maybe more when i have access to liquid calories like chocolate milk. most of it is carbs with some protein sprinkled in.
>>74073672Thats a normal and healthy amount of calories, but I highly doubt you eat all of this.Remember to eat 1 gram of protein per lbs of your bodyweight
>>74073702my boobs demand food its an endless hunger. i can eat half a pizza and be hungry again in 20 minutes. the worst part is how much you have to shit its just awful.
>>74073718Weel, glad to hear you are eating good
These are my set records for ring dips, I literally had to stop doing them and couldn't even do static holds anymore Has anyone experienced something similar? I don't know what happened
>>74074202You just randomly couldn't do them anymore?
Does a weight vest help at all in calls or is it just gonna sit in my closet forever?
>>74074225Yeah they just dropped off a cliffI'm doing ring pushups (not turned out) in the mean time
>>74074244It helps more on movments where you're using all your weight. But they're easy to max out on and you just wind up chasing rep totals. I use mine primarily when cutting because losing intensity on movments is tantamount to losing muscle and every lb you lose is lost intensity. Getting a dip belt is usually the better option because you can also throw that weight on a bar and is lot less annoying to adjust than a vest with a much higher limit on loading. Even things like bss with a vest feel less intuitive than with a bar. The only movment where vests are kind of the only way to do it weighted are handstand pushups which you don't need at all if you have even a little weight and a bar you can do ohp which has a much deeper ROM and what little weights you have will go a lot farther with it.
>>74070290Why does he have blue eyes
>>74070498the motion most people call "handstand pushup" is really just "headstand pushup". difference between beginner and intermediate movement
>>74074319Indo Aryan
>>74073586i can still do >10 at 115kg and i train them as an after thought now, I could do 7 clean straight leg muscleups at 90kg, i can do a few dirty muscle up now and i've not trained it for 2 years almost
>>74073474no i'm too heavy for this, one arm pullups are for manlets, i have one friend who is not a manlet and does a lot of pullups and he can almost do 1 at 85-90kg
>create shitty thread>strawman everyone who replies as a basedjakGood job. What did you achieve with this?
>>74075462seems pretty accurate calisthenic guys really are all small and pencil necks

Do what you want what you enjoy what's easy what's comfortable what you like these threads are pointless it's hating for the sake of hating doesn't matter what you hate it takes you nowhere and it leaves you miserable, doesn't matter what or how much you achieve, when you truly think and act in this way you are rejected even by yourself, when bad times come you suffer greatly without nothing to fall on, no safety nets. Such is the life of someone hateful. Now if you are nice and kind and gentle the opposite applies.
>>74076083>Do what you want what you enjoy what's easy what's comfortable what you likespoken like a true pencil neck
>>74071866Anon, you won't grow taller by doing this...
Bob Backlund and Karl Gotch did almost exclusively high rep calisthenics (step-ups, Hindu squats, push-ups, etc.) and those guys were as strong as oxen. I do weightlifting, calisthenics, and acrobatics, but you can get plenty strong on calisthenics.
>>74076330>you can get plenty strong on calisthenicslifetime intermediate at best
>>74076843Planche pushups, one arm pullups, etc. are advanced movements which are equally if not more difficult than 2/3/4/5Stop coping
>>74076946>Stop copingOh please, maybe 1 in 100 calisthenic dyels can do these and they're twink manlets every time. Literally no calsithenic manlet is touching 2/3/4/5
>>74074254Your rings dropped off a cliff? Then buy some more and start doing them again, idk?
>>74076330/pw/ was here
>>74077010
>>74075329Oh ok, so in summary, you are fat and can’t do pull ups. >N-no I can do 10We’re laughing at your terrible kipping fatty form trying to perform a novice feat.
>>74077091buddy retard, you lack reading comprehension
calisthenics are more impressive when you're tallersomeone who's 6'2" busting out 12 clean pullups in one set is way more impressive than someone 5'6" doing the same
>>74077107yes but you're still a pencil neck at any bodyweight if you're a calisthenics fag >>74066537
>>74075534muscle up
>>74077100You said pull ups are easy and the proceeded to brag about novice ability. It’s like bragging you can bench 135. I ask if you can actually do anything worth a fuck and the answer is suddenly that you’re too fat. Saying they’re for manlets is a cope. t. Not a manlet, no issues here.
>>74077468Where did i brag? Only posters who gloat about their ability for pullups are the calsithenic dyels

>>74070280sneeding
>>74077930so true
>>74076185How tall is he? My 5'5 friend would always insult me for not being able to do as many pull ups as him.
>>74071941This is true. Would you rather be doing strict muscle-ups at 135lbs or doing 20 strict pull ups at 200?IIRC there was some black lifter who got super massive and posted on old fitness internet by doing prison workouts that were mostly calisthenics. There was also some tiktok zoomer that would make fun of fat women that hit 200 super shredded doing mainly chins and dips.
>>74075573>>74077917Am I retard? I've been doing calisthenics on/off for years. I can do all of those except free-standing hspu. I have to have a wall or something to balance on.
>>74078366i feel like this would be a legitimate way to progressively overload for weightlifters who do pull ups as an accessory.

>>74070267>victim weightAt what weight class do you stop being this? Welterweight? Middleweight?
Some advise please!I've been going gym for a couple of weeks now with a decent muscle group scheduleI'd like to do pull ups and push ups every day at home regardless of the gym but have been holding off because it might fuck with recovery. What do I do? Stop being a pussy and do it regardless or will it affect progression negatively?
>>74087752You mean most of the insecure homos here.
why can't people just do a mix of calisthenics and weights to get the best of both worlds. oh wait it's for the same reason people argue over ridiculous diets it's because they're bored and want to argue on 4chan. touch grass.
>>74070267so femboy trap general?
>>74070267Weight lifters still seething that they can't do pullups and basic pushups or dips. All that muscle and zero strength.

calisthenics are pretty based, i wish I were better at them

>>74077878looks natty and his strong points are all hit by regular calisthenicsnext
Calibros, I need some help. I don't know why is it but I can't seem to do bodyrows properly without pinching my shoulder. Several workouts already and every time I get to the rows I end up with shoulder pain. I don't have problems with any other exercise, typically I do pull ups/dips circuit and then I do rows/push ups. Also, since I don't have access to lower bars, I do them on the parallel bars, meaning the load is probably barely 40% of my bodyweight.
>>74090358winged scapula?
I'm going to start daily calisthenics, K boges style with only simple moves, will add kettlebell for shoudlers and legs.I tend to get analysis paralysis so fuck that now, I will just do three set of leg, push and pull each day and that's it. Maybe add abs or some isolation here and there. I hope I can finally be consistent.
>>74090358did that shit for nearly ten years and only once in a blue moon did I manage to not pinch my shoulder.I would strongly advise to swallow your pride and ask a kowledgeable person for a form check.
>>74090362I searched for it and couldn't really tell if my shoulder blades are flaring out desu. Do you have any idiotproof guide on how to self test?>>74090410What did you do anon? Did you just drop rows altogether or did you manage to fix it?
>>74090373pull up, chin up, dips, hips/legs raise, kettlebell swings, kettlebell bulgarian split squatsyou don't need to suffer with your analysis paralysis, cali+kb is not complex at all, these basics got pretty much everything coveredyou can worry about the extremely autistic hypertrophy targeting later
>>74090678>Do you have any idiotproof guide on how to self test?sit on a chair with a back seatextend your arms and move them up, then move them downif you feel the shoulder blade(not the muscles) sliding down the back seat of your chair you have winged scapulayou can probably touch it, if it's a hard bone protuding through your upper back musculature you have winged scapula
>>74090980>you can probably touch it, if it's a hard bone protuding through your upper back musculature you have winged scapulaThen yes, I very much have winged scapula
>>74090887yeah the plan in not to think too hard and do roughly this, in less that 30 min every morningworkout A : - 3 sets horizontal push (push ups or dips)- 3 sets horizontal pull (dip bar row or kb row)- 3 sets hinge (kb swing)workout B-3 sets vertical push (kb press or pike push up)-3 sets vertical pull (chinup/pullup)-3 sets squat (KB front squat, high rep bodyweight, lunges, etc etc)Optionally I will end the workouts with planking (proper form), ab wheel, fun isolation exercises like curls or preventive exercises like kb shoulder halo or band face pulls 6 times a week ABABAB so fullbody almost every day, but no set pushed to failure.It doesn't matter if it is not optimal, at this point I just want to build a strong consistent habit.
