should i train today? i trained on friday and im still very sore from the workout then and i dont want to overwork/strain one of my muscles. btw the workout is a full body workout because if i do something like a push/pull/leg split i will only do a muscle group once per week.

My name is bilal Im here to get stronger and be able to do my first pull ups followed by cooler tricks. I don’t have an instagram account rn, my current goal is to do pull ups, and idk want my future goal is.

Since we are doing the Core Every Day Challenge this week, let’s do a real breakdown on core training. Because core is one of the most misunderstood parts of fitness. A lot of people train core like it is only supposed to burn. Or only supposed to be high reps. Or only supposed to be endurance. But your core is still muscle. That means it can be trained for: • strength • control • endurance • skill • body tension • movement Just like anything else. 🤔 Why core training gets misunderstood For some reason, people will train: • back for strength • chest for strength • legs for strength …but then when it comes to core, they suddenly think it should only be: • long planks • endless crunches • random circuits • “feel the burn” workouts That is not wrong all the time. But it is incomplete. You can train your back for endurance or for strength. You can train your legs for endurance or for strength. You can train your shoulders for endurance or for strength. The core is exactly the same. 💪 Core should often be trained like strength If your goal is hybrid calisthenics, skills, and body control, then a lot of your core work should be trained more like strength. That means: • using progressions • overloading the position • making the skill harder over time • focusing on quality • not just surviving high reps That is why things like these are so valuable: • hollow body hold • dragon flag progressions • human flag progressions • hanging leg raises • L-sit progressions These are not just “ab exercises.” They are strength skills. ⚡ Why core can often be trained more often One reason people do core more often is that it usually recovers faster than bigger muscle groups. That is similar to other smaller muscles. For example: • biceps often recover faster • calves often recover faster • forearms can recover faster So yes, core can often be worked more frequently. But that does not mean: • max it out every day • destroy it every day • recovery does not matter

Hi im new to calisthenics
