leg training separates the men from the boys
Ahahahaha good comment
JM SB92 its true, young guys have small legs with estrogen, real men have big legs with testoterone
That's what I'm talking about! Legs are as important as the upper body, so congratulations, man...you really make me want to train even harder! From Chile!
La musica de este video la voy a usar cada que haga pistols en mi rutina,ADAM RAW THE BEST FOREVER❤💪🏻👱🏻♂️
Amazing leg strength!
You're a boss! inspirational stuff. I may just start working out lower body!
Good job brother, the journey is long and never ends, hopefully this will inspire those chicken legged fools to train their legs.
"IN CZECH REPUBLIC, I AM THE FIRST IN THE WORLD" :-)))))), jinak dobrá práce Adame !
I have just watched the video and I did my first left leg pistol squat, damn man the video must inspired me
Deffinitely, the most complete athlete! Keep pushing the limits, Adam. Big respect for you! Because of you I started training dem pistols really hard, but can you tell me how to get bigger calves, which are your favourite calves exercises?
Thanks!
calf raises man, what else? running, jumping and jump rope will also help, if you eat enough. keep in mind that calf size is mostly genetic though. people with long achilles tendons usually have trouble building up their calves, myself included.
nice video, thanks for the challenge, i practice every day
Also if you're not that advanced yet, you could do V-pushups (they're great for the shoulders)
respect!!!
even people i respected before lost alot of my attention lately. Nobody trains legs really hard way. They dont move, they cant sprint and jump and squat heavy. And THAT IS CALISTHENICS. Balzzar is nice example of whole body explosive powers, his sprints and jumps will always be motivational to me, he is way further than anyone i know including myself + he have very good upper body explosiveness and power. Check his videos, he know what he talk about.
awesom bro kill routine give us some workout routines bro we really need from you
man you can jump how big is your max vertical jump,can you dunk? you are awesome ,my motivation...My dream is to come at your level one day :)
WOW! i tried to do some one leg squats but i cant keep the balance when i get lower... I think my legs aren't strong enough for this, can you make some leg workout video for begginers?
need motivation for leg day :)
i do calisthenics and legs ! :) jumps squats pistols and deadlifts ^^ but im not ass strong as you :( grow stronger ! :)
Mine
1200 jumps rope for warm up
the set without rest:
35 Squat 12kg lest
25 reverse calfs raises
10 pistol squat per leg
30 hamstring bridge
20 lunges per leg
10 frog jumps
10 higher jumps
25 calfs raises per leg
i do 5 rounds with 2 minutes reste between
What do you think ?
Ruthay Hibiki You mean 12kg vest ?
That sounds like a great leg workout!
Hey Adam, what do you do for calves?
Grtz
How do you workout your calf muscles,is it with the explosive jumps?
Music ?
hello Adam, how do you workout your shoulders?
what do your legs look like
yes....legs are important,but your are doing squats in a gym with weights and equipment.I have only my body weight to work with,its not so easy to build great legs like you.I DONT know if its possible too :(
***** i know but its not the same
***** yeah can stick with that
+Everythingfor PC Look Bar brothers bro, and dont make scuses
work those pistols squats bro, then add weight to them by any mean, you can start with dumbbells which are not that expensive thats the only way without doing super heavy squats with olympic bars.
I've been training all my life, and I have not seen many people with your dedication. This kind of extreme strength is often first understood when tried, because you manage to make it look easy. Great to see your ambition to complete power, not only lifting heavy but also jumping high...and so on. Keep working hard man
The legend himself
pistol 50 kg...bro FUCKIN RESPECT
for real, that was INSANE
***** He also does in this video? lol
" in every generation ..only a few are worthy of being called an ultimate atlete .." ...and you are one of them ;)
Leg training releases a lot of growth hormones as leg muscles are the biggest muscle groups in our bodies, so i'm saying that because of those growth hormones, leg training improves your upper body alot too. Respect to Adam
Right in the point bro!
Where are these people who always put comments under calisthenics workout's and says that they skip the leg day, because they don't have that big, bulking thigh muscles? How it looks now compared to your leg extensions on smith machine? lol
word :)
xBaRtHeZ it depends on how much weight u can squat
People avoid training legs because it is "harder" with more mass especially when it is on the legs for example front lever.
But You Adam Raw really teach those people that it is possible to do both :)
The video is really awesome KEEP IT UP! :D
i jump around 3,3m on standing long jump, and around 140-150 on standing high jump. I use standing without momentum or assistance only, thats only real test of jumping strength.
You just got yourself a subscriber!!! I'm so hyped right now....but it is 2:40 AM...so the workout will have to wait. :P
I need to find that music...
Agreed, great exercises, and Adam is one of the best. Just make sure you've mastered ordinary squats before attempting single-leg squats! And make sure your hamstrings and glutes are really flexible too.
Balzzar is right man, its just maths and physics. Of course heavier and more trained lower body makes everything like bw upper body conditioning way harder. Why you thing gymnasts can jump a shit? Why you thing whole community is chicken legs without any serious leg work. I cant do even half tricks and moves as they do, but i dont care, because I train my body as one entity and upper without lower means nothing to me. People like balzzar inspire me way more than any no leg trianing skinny kids.
alot moves in calisthenics are much easier when u are shorter and lighter, its just math and physics facts.. leverages on moves with shorter arms and total pulled weight makes a big difference, thats why we dont see tall and heavy gymnasts and there are never tall big people doing pull ups easy.. :)) unless they work really hard for it :)))
lmao its weighted calisthenics - using calisthenics moves with your body but adding weight to get even stronger. Its same as weighted pull ups, dips, pushups.. squats are moving your body in space witch is calisthenics. Adding weight changes the intensity. wake up mortal
try to heal it and than start slowly. knee and legs injuries are just problem of technique and wrong training. When u train well, squats even makes knees stronger!!!I can tell!
I think the same, there are bunch of dudes doing planches but have trouble with single repetition of pistol even without any weights, good message man
you train calfs on every jumping excercise :))
u train calves with each explosive jumping excercise very well :))
nope + I dont train bench press, rather weighted pushups or dips.
I dont do calisthenics but, i’ve been working on Gym for past 2 months now with My friend, we bodybuilding, and our PR’s keep increasing, so we decided to look for our Leg PR’s. We did leg press, and put 265kg on it That was so much could barely do 1 rep, so did 8 reps, and got a nosebleed due to the pressure.
Leg day best day!
advanced stuff on rings is still very hard for me, I am 96kg and 185cm, I am not small gymnast. Some straight arm work I cant do at all because it brings just injuries. I was recovering 3 months from elbow bursitis due to planche holds work. But i will try to do my best in future.. thanks for feedback :)
Hello adam, I have a serious question regarding the pistols, in what position should my spine be in? neutral? I find it very difficult to position my spine in a neutral position during pistol squats, and I dont think its a good idea to add weight with an arched back, how do you do it? i cant tell from the video, if you could make a tutorial about it I would very much appreciate it. thanks!
Handstand pushups and no legs pushups.
samozrejme ze street ne, to jsem jeste ani nevedel co to je :D street delam necele 3 roky, clekove cvicim od 16, predtim jsem delal ruzne sporty jako parkour, silovy ctyrboj, posilovnu, vsecko mozne.
they probably neglect leg work and also most important thing - DIET. u need alot food to grow properly.
Thanks Adam, great job, starting training legs as important as upper body
most important are jumps, pistols dont damage knees when done properly they strengthen them.
Calisthenics doesn't mean bodyweight training only. Wake up, mortal. Use a dictionary.
jumping
excelente video. saludos desde Tucuman-Argentina
thanks bro, yea thats maybe also why i weight 96kg, i always trained lower body..
aha divam se celou dobu do nazvu videa, tam je message ;-) uz je to ok i dole
yea thanks bro :))
Calves are hit with every jumping exercise you perform very hard and functionally :))
i train both, but for video to make it short i use just one leg shots :)
More than 2 years ago this video inspired me so much to start training legs seriously, thank you Adam
yea i know him, very good :)) I do this excercise alot :)
jojo uz je to ok, sledoval jsem celou dobu hlavni nazev a nechapal jsem :))
anyone still not sure how to tackle legs on a bodyweight style routine. use hills use resistance bands jump up hills do broad jumps 2 foot 1 foot. tuck junmps. knee get ups. split jumps. lunges and squats with resistance on hills. add a 10kg sandbag and hold that as you jump. leg training isnt about time under tension most importantly. it is about coordinated response. explosive reactivity. plyometric in a sense. remember hills and stairs are you best friend. EVERYTHING IS HARDER UPHILL
thanks man, I sent you message let me know.
Great video Adam. In Salt Lake we train legs as much as upper body - and we can't figure out why everyone else seems to ignore legs. It's about time someone made a video like this!
thanks alot, i started as around 16 yo
Good money homie u right dudes always wearing long pant aint showin legs I'm workin on my pistol squats EIBMG juice
thanks for feedback brother!!
diky chlape.. doufam ze to bude mit ten efekt co ma..
Ve workoutove komunite je necvici bohuzel skoro nikdo..
thanks
Dont skip leg day
I myself have put together a pistol squat variations quickee the other day too here on TH-cam:) good to see, I am not alone with using weights... people keep telling me I am killing my knee joints. What do you think about it? Sometimes I hate pistols, other times I like playing eg. mixing the movement of squat with different pushups and jumps:) Although I do Calisthenics, I train legs also with weighted squats and some other (mostly functional) weighted exercises. For me pistols are not enough
its in description :)
Good video and important messidge. I am a beginner in calisthenics but have some background in different martial arts and weight lifting. I think that if you do not train legs in calisthenics it is as stupid as not training legs in weight training. I have followed your videos for some months, great work.
i got my meniscus torn, pattelar ligament was torn, I got my ankle ligament twice damaged(lenghthening)... Keep it up and keep it slow, right now I am finally able to do pistols and natural leg curls(raises), all you need is to start with some prehab work for your knees and ankles, you ll find plenty on the web and start slowly with basics. Persistence is the key ;-)
why is his back arched like that it looks like he has some issues or is that his muscles ?
adam raw has extremely powerful legs!!!
TYVMuch Adam , you are an outstanding athlete , lot of respect
great message...i have some answers here...why dont people train legs...cuz it's much more painfull and harder then upperbody.Thatz why!Good to see a big man doin calisthenics i'm tired of short dudes lightweight...gymnasts.You'r doin a great job my man!
Legs training speed up growth of upper body, it's prooved(science). By doing legs training you produce testosterone which improves your strenght, staimana etc.
I agree with you Adam.
Btw. one more very good video. That song fits very much to it.
thanks bro
thanks !
I can only do 3 I have skinny legs can u give me advice I'm strong on upper body
man you are realy strong you do some nice shit , hard , workout so much of respect to you :)
get it bro :))
He's not forcing anyone, he's being helpful, besides he's right! You should train legs for a more complete body.. It all works together and the stronger your legs get, the stronger your overall strength becomes. The core is also important since it makes upper and lower body coordinate with eachother better. Furthermore training legs is proven to improve upper body muscle growth by 30% due to testosterone release. Your choice to only do the job half though :) Good luck!
It doesn't matter how heavy the legs are, if the lower body is strong you can hold those static holds better than someone with only upper body strength. Take Adam for example, if he wanted he could probably outlast any of those chickenleg mofos, purely because his legs are strong as fuck. People think those exercises are about upper body because it looks that way, but they are mostly core, lower back and lower body that are used to balance.
MAN !!! THANK U SO MUCH FOR THIS ... I'm gonna be honest here ... my leg workout SUCKS,but i saw this video DAAAAAMN ... but thanks to u brother i'm gonna take my leg workouts to the next level ... even if i'm still a beginner .... even if i'm still struggling with just pistol squats ... WILL WORK MY ASS OFF to reach your level one day ... also i wanted to ask you about imbalances ... cuz i can do about 5 reps pistols with my left leg BUT NONE with my right maybe 1-2 reps on a good day..tips????
Hi Adam Raw, it is a long time im following you in your videos as you inspire me pretty well, want to get better day to day - train to train. I become calm when i see you train legs too (you don't really used to show it in your vids), it is so good to see it, becouse it is that rare. :) well done! I can only suggest to train the hamstrings too, in the gymnastics bodies book there are pretty good examples how to do it (altough you train them with the jumping pistols too) - it is up to you now.
I love you guy that's exactly what I was Thinking ... in "methode lafay" we think that lower body and upper body must be in the same shape, because if not you'll not be wealthy . To motivate you, know that quadriceps are one of the biggest muscle in human body, so it makes great anabolitic and hormonal response . No more chicken legs in calisthenics !
Don't jump right into them. Build up a solid foundation through light jogging, assisted airsquats, and slowly put more and more weight on a single leg, till you can finally execute a perfect pistol squat. And do them slowly with lots of time under tension, in order to develop stronger joint-, ligament- and tendon-strength.
People try to avoid legs from two reasons. 1st they are too narcissus and would like to pump their biceps or chest and after that they usually staring in the mirror hours.. 2nd to train legs properly is by far the hardest training ever.. We all know it :) Anyway hope at least part of chicken legs people will separate to you/us :)
With such beast pistol squats, you have to make a tutorial on them! This honestly for me at least is the hardest calisthenics exercise that ive encountered besides the more advanced techniques. Hell, doing muscle ups and flag poling are easier than doing a single pistol squat.
Actually, the stronger your legs and core are, the easier it is to hold a planche. But I do agree and find it ridiculous that people don't train the legs. What's a tank without tracks? what's a car without wheels? what's a ship without sails? what's a man with no balls?
Legs are too powerful to get a proper workout with just ones own bodyweight. They are designed to carry a lot of extra load on the person.
Just do normal squats with a loaded bar or something. Why limit oneself to just using ones own body when ones own body is not limited to carry just itself only?
You first need to rehab your knee area then. Start for example with 2 legged box squats (you can use a computer chair) and then slower lower the box (chair) When 2 legged squats go easy. you can start doing one legged pistol squats and then lower the box and eventually do it without the box
Now every training is not the same without a full leg workout
Hey Adam Raw, I was just wondering which exercises you do besides calisthenics, such as bench press. I know you incorporate weights with calisthenics such as squats, pull ups, and dips. Do you do any other weight training besides bench press?
fuck you inspired the shit out of me lol, I'm going to workout legs hard starting tomorrow, promise. I'll send you a video of me in about a month and a half.. I have weak legs right now, but in 50 days I will change that :)
Thanks alot!
Working out the legs burns way more calories than working out the upper body, simply because you have more muscles in your legs... Your quadriceps are way bigger than your triceps, aren't they?!
Great video Adam, as usual. Don't stop! :)
Good message. Not training the lower body surely helps with the upper body skills... but are you training to learn skills or get stronger? By adding mass to your legs you make the upper body work harder on many BW skills which will make you stronger.
