A young guy told me in my go-to outdoor gym that he did well in the gym (135kg bench), but got injured after heavy deadlifts. Now he does calisthenics as well, his stamina is much better. It's an often neglected part of training. If I do pull ups, I usually do around 50 in a workout, an advanced does over 100.
Yeah people really struggle with deadlift technique and go far too heavy too soon. I just put out a video on technique for this reason. No reason why people should be getting injured doing any movement in the gym if volume is managed and technique is on point. Calisthenics- you're preaching to the converted. Not sure if you've seen that most of my videos on the channel are calisthenics tutorials. Nice work on the pull ups. I view pull ups as a strength exercise and never do more than 6 reps these days. Key is to keep adding more weight, rather than reps. Once pull ups are strong with full ROM, it makes externally stabilised movements, more appropriate for hypertrophy, much easier in terms of output.
Hey Kemo, everything you said is very good and informative for the guys that doing their first steps into training, but what I think is that, your needs determine what is the right tool for the task. If we are talking about hypertrophy, yes you defenitely need a gym for that, but people should know that with bodyweight exercises and a weight vest and some sprinting, you can become more athletic than 95 % of the people in the gym, especially in conditioning. But yeah if you are looking to make progress the fastest way you should eat and go to the gym, there is not a faster way.
