Thing I like good, thing you like bad.
>>77179560More like cardio, calisthenics, and combat sports is the trinity of fitness.>most healthy>most aesthetic>most functional>your body in absolute peak performance>most attractive body type to women>actual real world strength and endurance>actual flexibility and full control of your body>able to actually fight and defend yourself>look completely unassuming, especially with clothes on, but a complete beast performance wisecompare that to a big, disgusting, bodybuilding roidmonkey who can barely even move his arms, loses to a trained fighter half his weight, is only strong in the exact context of his highly specific gym lifts, has muscle for show rather than strength, and can barely run 100m without getting winded
>>77179562In which real world scenario do you need to pull yourself up vertically or push yourself up over something vertically. I love pull-ups btw.

Post body op guaranteed you look like a dyel with a shirt on because that’s what will happen if you don’t train for hypertrophy
>>77179559The holy trifecta:>Resistance training>Running>Rape
>>77179559It's definitely good to decide your behavior based on dumb rules that sound neatAnyways under what possible argument is calisthenics better than weight training?Ultimately there are only two important physical adaptations - cardio, and strength. That's it. You can increase your cardio, or increase your strength. You can gain or lose fat, or gain or lose muscle. That's it. Everything is a means to those two goals. Barbell training is the most effective at gaining strength and muscle. Cardio can be approached a lot of ways but outside of sports not much is actually necessary or particularly beneficial. All that being said. Post body, OP.
>>77179559Post body
did calisthenics for years. switched to gym last year. immediately blew up. calisthenics is alright but it doesn't compareswitching from calisthenics to weightlifting is goated tho cause you come from a decent physique and stack noob gains on top of it
>>77179628cardiovascular gains are very valuable. cardio is not a means of losing fat at all. the best way to lose fat is putting on muscle to increase tdee and adjusting your diet. weightlifting may burn less calories each time but in the long run is better for fat control than cardio.however, good cardio allows you to do intense physical activity for prolonged periods of time, makes your heart and lungs stronger, improves blood flow, keeps your sugar and blood pressure down and helps prevent chronic diseased in the long run. cardio is extremely beneficial, much more so than lifting weights
>>77179635Yes, but you see if you exclusively stick to calisthenics, you have an excuse (cope) for why you don't look as big as other people.
>>77179647you can cope by realizing you work out outdoors freely while gym goers go to an artificially lit crowded room that stinks of sweat and have to wait for retards, women and old people to stop doing retarded shit to finally work out while paying on top of itin every aspect except for gains calisthenics is superior
>>77179654>in every aspect except for gains calisthenics is superiorLmao, even if that was true, calisthenics would still be inferior in the one aspect that counts.
>>77179603climbing a tree for fun
>>77179668that's why most prefer to lifthonestly tho calisthenics is a much better starting point. I'm sick of people using the bench to press less than a push up. when I started lifting I could already bench 80kg because of all the dips and push ups variations I did before. with no equipment, no risk of injury, for free and without getting in the way of other people trying to work out. there's a point in calisthenics in which it becomes very hard to keep making progress and that's a good cue to switch, but since gains are about similar early on when you're a newfag going to the gym is absolutely pointless, since it's outclassed in every aspect but gains and matched in that one at that stage
>>77179559>strength training (free weights only)>powershartingIm curious as to what you think both words mean
>>77179700Based. Calisthenics is great for beginners, and honestly a better starting point for sedentaries than lifting. Newbies should do calisthenics for a few months at least before setting foot into a gym
>>77179559Btw OP is a massive faggot and the shittest-tier of any possible list
>>77179559Your spinal erectors and glutes are the most important muscles for real world strength, performance and combat ability, how would you train them without lifting weights unless you count squats as weighted calisthenics
>>77179701Powersharters are all morbidly obese, roidtrannies, and usually only do handful of (zero functionality) compound lifts
>>77179751arch ups and nordic curls
>>77179559you forgot the fourth C:cumming inside asian qts
>>77179788>arch upsUnless you are very obese is as useless as doing bodyweight squats>nordic curlsActually a useful lift but it trains the hamstrings not the glutes or erectors
>>77179788>arch upsThis is calisthenics best answer to deadlifts:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hXrhNfwNzdo
>>77179754I think you're confusing powersharting with people who say they do powersharting because they can't control their diets. >>77179559Tier list for what, exactly?
>>77179562>>77179700I like weighted calestenics + weights for what it doesn't cover. Weighted pullups, dips, and free weights like RDLs, then something for your traps/delts/biceps. I just like compouds
>>77179788>>77179863Roman chair back extentions are pretty good too. Although you still need a piece of equpiment for them
>>77179754>zero functionalityMeaningless words shoved in a heap of baseless bad faith assumptions
>>77179863powersharters are so fucking disgusting. Maybe the ROM would be longer if you weren't a 400 lb piece of shit.
>>77179559Ultramarathoners die younger than bodybuilders
>>77179559No thank you
>>77180158statistics show the complete opposite btw. Ultra-runners live longer than average while bodybuilders live significantly shorter
>>77179559hiking, heavy weights, hung daddies
>>77179754You're very stupid. Does the term "weight class" mean anything to you?Every use of the word "powershitter" seems be by someone retarded. How curious.

>>77179559>Physical job>goodWhite collar chads don't wreck their bodies, make more than you, and are bigger than you since they can recover from the gym better
>>77179654>gym goers go to an artificially lit crowded room that stinks of sweat and have to wait for retards, women and old people to stop doing retarded shit to finally work out while paying on top of itYes, better stay away from the douchehouse
>>77181254he obviously has never ser foot in a gym. the gym is not a douchehouse but a mental asylum. every day I see someone doing something absolutely retarded with the equipment I'm trying to use. I wish the gym was actually full of douches, at least I'd expect them to know how to use what's available properlyyesterday there was a nicocado fatass doing some gay stretches and getting in the way of racking weights because of how much space his fat ass was taking. you never have to deal with that shit when working out outdoors
I think the reason calisthenics was always prescribed for fighters is because(a) lifting can make you musclebound, reduce your mobility etc. (it doesn't have to, but it CAN)(b) high rep calisthenics enhances the capillaries that cross your muscles, meaning more nutrients can be delivered TO the muscles, and more waste products removed FROM the muscles, which enhances athletic performance>>77179635So you spent years enhancing your capillary network, then switched to liftingSuddenly you put a big stimulus on your muscles, which are well equipped to recover and restore and grow, through all the capillaries you made from calisthenicsResult? Big gainsAnd this is why we should prioritise calisthenics for kids and youths, to prepare them to lift later on (once their growth plates have fused, so we don't accidentally make them all manlets)
>>77181264I know its counterintuitive to their profit incentive but I wish gyms would close the books for the first 3 months of the year
>>77179559Being strong is fun. I lift heavy things easily
>>77179559>combat sports in "God-tier"God-tier when it comes to brain damage, that is.
