Dips and pullups: phenomenal in building muscle
How do I position my hands for greater tricep activation when doing pull-ups?
@@budekins542 keep your body as straight as possible to emphasize tension on the triceps
@@budekins542
You do not train your tricep with pull ups.
@@kelvinjohnson3824 you don’t train triceps doing pull-ups
@@budekins542 Do diamond push ups for ur triceps, shoulder, chest.
I love it when these guys pump my mind
... you perv! 🤣
LOL
Get good at pullups? Try wide grip and muscle ups. Good at pushups? Try clapping pushups or better yet handstand pushups. Dips? Do rings? Squats? Try pistol squats
Pushups build your triceps, back and core muscles as well as your chest...but bench pressing only works your chest and triceps. PUSHUPS CAN BE DONE ANYWHERE AT ANYTIME, BUT BENCH PRESSING REQUIRES A DESIGNATED PLACE WITH THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT.
Depending how you do them you can even focus the biceps and forearms to a degree, really such a good compound movement
@@imaswedishplumber ...in the long run, unless you have a homemade gym, pushups are easier to maintain and do on a more consistent basis...but some people need to be in a gym full of people to stay motivated...BUT THATS NOT ME, IM SELF-MOTIVATED.
@@therealist2798 Yep. They are simpler, work more muscles, and feel more "right" to me. Althought I used weights for a long time and like them, bodyweight is just more time efficient and functional.
Push up don't work your back
pushups work your upper back and strengthens your lower back by holding the plank position to do the pushups...NOW WHAT GENIUS ? 🤔
That guy is always looking up
I never noticed that until you said this!
And now I notice it all the time.
LOL
The theory is he doesn't know anything and his mate is googling it off screen for him to read
He is checking for notifications
Lmfao
Pull ups are still one of the best and challenging movements 💪🏾I luv weights and calisthenics
The problem with dips and pull ups is, if you're heavy (eg. 200+ pounds) its extremely hard to go past 3 reps.
Search in TH-cam Andrey Smayev
Yes but you will gain some serious strength man if you do them on a daily
@Krakrock I suppose you could do Dead Hangs. Negatives, and Assisted instead...
Practice.
resistance band will help also.
Rings! Rings!Rings!Rings! I can’t say it enough, when you get to 50 reps on any body weight movement start adding weight and complexity.
If you can do 50 reps, chances are you aren't doing them correctly anyway...
Why you guys are not coming to TH-cam together anymore? I miss watching your video’s man.
Theres a study i remember seeing that you get the same power and strength gains from slow controlled push ups that you do from heavy bench press
To make any excercise harder you can add more reps, do reps alot slower, add pauses or change you body angle
Lots of ways to progress
But you will have far less chance of injury from bodg weight and it improves your core, your stability, your joint health and propeioception alot more than liftinf weights
If you need evidence of body weight training benefits look at the roman soldiers or spartan warriors
yup. ok you do 10 reps with weights. but you can do 50 pushups. it will tone all your upper body. i agree as well with less injuiry. weights are fairly new to the world. before we were moving, building, hunting ect. that gave us the body.
Years ago I worked in a state prison in its special housing unit. The men there had no access to any equipment whatsoever. No bars, nothing. All they did was calisthenics in their cells every day yet they were very, very strong. Don’t let anyone tell you basic calisthenics cannot build a lot of muscle.
You're right man. It definitely can build muscle but it takes time so one has to be consistent and patient whereas weights accelerate the process a bit.
Press up, dip, pullup, pistol sguat, bulgarian split squat. There are many variations of these exercises that will beat weights everytime. Don't forget yoga for a real strength workout
True
I’m doing body weight training right now with my girlfriend. Especially since she is just starting out and I’ve had a long lay off from training so body weight training is great to start with to build up strength etc. cant wait to start hitting the weights again though 💪🏻
Body weigth builds pure strenght and are better for your joints while going to the gym is more for getting bigger muscles
Do you do either?
@@trevbarlow9719 Now I'm confused. I thought "bigger muscles" = strength.
@@budekins542 yes to a certain degree i guess, i might it also depends on the denseness. Strongest man alive is huge but i dont know if he the biggest?
@@wizzilegal hate to break it to ya, there's no such thing as denser muscle fibres, there are different types tho like fast twitch and slow twitch, fast twitch generates more force. Fast twitch fibres are better trained with weights rather than bodyweight.
@@budekins542 you can focus on building muscle without prioritising strength by performing excercises to tear more muscle fibres leading to more hyper trophy and so muscle growth (normally by repping a lower weight for more reps)
Strength training will also build muscle but training for raw strength normally means pushing a higher weight for less reps leading to less hyper trophy as less muscle fibres are torn this way, that’s why body builders are so huge but are nowhere near as strongmen or power lifters, even ones of similar stature
Love this stuff
I found out the hard way that you can't outtrain a bad diet. As soon as I started following the Agoge Diet, I have noticed awesome muscle growth.
that meant to happen for me too is so inspiring ?
When i played football in highschool everytime christmas break came i used to do like 200-300 push-ups everyday. Cameback from break so much stronger than when I left everytime
Might also be puberty
I got my diet plan from Agoge Diet and lost 2kg in just 10 days. So far, so good. Can't wait to see numbers on scale after 20 more days. I am so excited about this.
Direct challenge to the guy in the grey hat: let's both post a video of doing a pistol squat, pull up (strict form, chest to bar), and dip (strict form, pause at bottom) pyramid circuit from 1-20 where 1 is a pistol and pull up and for each those you do 2 dips. Then talk to me about needing to intensify the basics.
I will put a thousand dollar bet you cannot do it and I can.
HI! I've been working out for the past 5 months at home with simple movements like pushups, squats, pullups, etc. I have built up the strength/endurance to rep 100 squats for 4 sets as a normal amount in my workouts! Does doing any more reps increase muscle gain? Or is it simply only endurance gain beyond this? Would love to hear your thoughts about the reasons to go further and beyond! Or to cut back on the reps. Love the talk 👌
Hard to say,science people say that sets up to 30 of any exercise build muscle😅,me personally,would recommend you a back pack,some bags filled with sand,try to keep your sets under 20-30 reps that way😉
Start throwing on a weighted vest bro!
Weighted calisthenics
Essentially that's weight training...
Essentially its NOT. since there are no gym weights included lol @@davepazz580
Love this.
When training to true failure, I mean proper failure, trained failure that take months to achieve this type of intensity guys, most don't have the patience...so when training to failure.. exercises kind of mean shit. You can push a car up the hill to FAILURE and you will develop. So what exercises do you WANT to build skill at is the question, up to you and your goals.
Bodyweight dips and chins will only get you so far. After getting 4x20 dips and a set or 3 of 15-20 pullups then add weight. The reason for such a high number ...you want to master moving your body thru space then you can add weight and linear progress 2x week then if you stall then have a heavy day and a light day.
Try doing the Royal Marine Beep Test for Press Ups, Sit Ups and Pull Ups, you’ll hate me later. Lol
What if we increasing our body weight instead, doing 20 reps of pull up with heavier body weight means we're getting stronger and bigger right?
@@frog-cy7rw you might be at a disadvantage. You could lose reps trying to do this. I don't recommend get much heavier in bodyweight
@@bjiffy10
So doing weighted calisthenics won't make you heavier and increase your reps?
@@frog-cy7rw you definitely build muscle doing weighted calisthenics. But you were talking about increasing your bodyweight. That is different than adding external load to your current physique.
When I was 135 and did a 45lbs added I could get 3 reps when I lost 10lbs I actually gained reps with the same weight. Now I'm 125 and can do 45lbs added for 8 reps.
Since your bodyweight changes daily you should be mindful of that. 2-5 lbs added to your bodyweight can make a major difference in performance. Reps may decrease. If you can control how much weight you gain then you should be fine.
I work 14 hours a day how can i join a gym?
Do 1,000 Reps of each exercise, that’ll make it hard. Or start trying gymnastic ring exercises.
Gymnastic ring exercises are brutally tough, there are a reason why those gymnastic guys are jacked.
rings will humble you
I'd give up any other form of training to master rings.
1000? Wtf
During the second lockdown in England, I just pushed and pushed myself until I was doing 1,000 sit ups, 3,000 press ups and 1,000 dips every morning & 1500 pull ups and chin ups every evening. For a good couple of months.
MIND
As I started following diet and training plan from Agoge Diet, I took my confidence to the next level. Girls finally started noticing me.
Get Chris Heria on
🤔
Vsià
Body weight squats
BALD GANG
In my opinion if you can’t do nickels and dimes aka push ups, pull ups,
sit ups for at least 100 rep max all other exercise would fleeting and just for ‘the look’
are u dumb 100 reps pull up lol what are u on
@@ycf922 crack
@@ycf922 100 reps in a workout not in one set.
The title does not define the conversation, he never said anything meaningful. They just said what we already know, theres a difference and then... Literally said nothing of value smdh
Sorry Karen
@@visableusername_93 karen are womens that are crazy and complain about stupid things. This was valid argument.
Start building the core and attain some good level of flexibility then you can do the bodyweight strength training
You dont just do 20 pushups rest and do 20 more you pre fatigue shorten rests to make it challenging to do 10 literally muscle failure or shy of it youll grow most people dont have drive to push themselves 4 years juvie 14 in prison off of pusgups i benched 315 natty no joke
same same but different... but still same
