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? 1. Make your workout split based on movements not body parts e.g. pull up and dip day 2. 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 3. 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 -Orfeas Onasis
