I’ve been trying my front lever for around 3-4 months, and I’ve hit a plateau where I’m not making any progress beyond the one leg front lever. I understand that the front lever will be a hard skill for me to learn because of my hight (200cm)

Why influencers give a bad wrap to the calisthenics world Everyone's training as if they're a bodybuilder nowadays With no idea what RPE, CNS fatigue and Periodization are they go through their training journey with absolutely no idea what they're doing Let's be real That's you Yet youre here probably making some excuse in your head Influencers (especially Ian Barseagle) preach alright info on training in their videos but all they want to do is sell you some BS workout program The amount of people who have signed up to the SSS (Ians group) and plateaud after just 2-3 months is unbelievable The reason why Ians method doesn't work (or any method that stays the same every week) is because your body wants to conserve resourses at ALL costs by giving it the same workout every week with no variation (it's called periodization) let's your pody learn and adapt to get lazier, making for less gains the more you work on some very specific thing Periodization is complicated so I can't put it into this post but I made some other tips you can see on periodization Bit of an influencer rant See you bro, keep overloading -Orfeas Onasis

ive been training for 7-8 months now and im in a giant plateau. I used to be able to do 25 pushups ez, now i can barely do 10. For some background information, I eat a normal amount of protein, i workout a muscle every other day, i do 5 sets till failure of pushups, but im not too active besides calisthenics. Ive been training consistently with rests and everything and I just can't seem to be able to do more reps. Ive scoured youtube and it seems like im doing everything they say. Same thing with pullups too, I could do 11 and now i can only do 7. drop a comment if you have more questions or advice

I need a very useful push program to gain more power, muscles and skills ( i can do +35 push ups, 20 deeps).

Alright yo what's up boyz, so I wasted lots and lots of time on my phone. I watched YT, IG, played chess and yes, I was down so bad that I even watched vids from popular creators on Spotify. On average I was consuming roughly 6-7h daily. Ngl, very long. Always was sleep deprived the next day when I had to go to school. So therefore I just decided to stop everything at once cos I thought to myself why not. And you know what? Worked for 2 weeks and then snapped back. Why? Because I spent watching very short amounts of time on vids on Spotify and my brain just coped and decided to stop depriving myself of every addiction because I already had broken the "rules". So what should you do instead of trying to solve everything at once? And don't get me wrong. It should be your goal to get your own time back and eventually stop it all. But you have to do it GRADUALLY. Don't attack everything all at once. It's just a lost battle. Instead of stopping YT, IG, TikTok, TV, chess, ... at once, you only focus on the worst addiction first. For me that was YouTube. Only focus on stopping one addiction (e. g. YT) for 1-2 weeks. After that time period, you've created a small identity which states that you're someone who doesn't watch YT. And now you move on to the next worst addiction and tell yourself to stop consuming YT AND IG. Do that again for 1-2 weeks. Repeat this cycle until you've destroyed them all. This is important as well: If you're forbidding yourself to watch YT, then you ARE allowed to consume the other addictions you have. Always always always keep replacing. Do anything, EXCEPT watching YT. This is the thing that has worked for me so far. That's it! If you've got still some questions my man, do not hesitate to ask. I'm always glad help someone to quit social media and other stuff.
