Calisthenics Tip Day 17 🏋️
Don't fall for the "hypetrophy" trap of calisthenics
You started to learn skills and huge strength with weighted
Yet 1/3 of your sets are isolation
The stretch and isolations MIGHT add 5-10% percent more gains if and only if everything else is locked in
How do I know?
I did it
I watched 10s of hours of Bodybuilding science to try and implement it to calisthenics
Yet didn't know why I couldn't muscle up when I could do 18 pull ups
You HAVE to train specific to your goal
muscle ups? explosive pull ups
handstand push up? train handstand not huge stretch incline dumbell bench...
OK but how?
- Make your workout split based on movements not body parts e.g. pull up and dip day
- about 60-70% of your sets should be the main exercise or a modification of it e.g. pull ups and top hold pull ups
- Base your training around the goal, your isolations can sometimes be for aesthetics but should mostly be purposeful e.g. tricep pushdown instead of tricep overhead because it's more specific to the main movement
