Love the 50, 80, 100 rule, it really works, we have all been really grateful for this tip on Anthony’s Bootcamp. Not so sure you’ll be at the 2024 Oscars Ceremony though🤔
Great advice! I like the 50-80-100 rule for ramping up intensity but if you are doing really high rep sets you implicitly include warmup (first 5-8 reps). So there could be even shorter training sessions.
Hi Nikita! Well, it depends. For example, I get around 30-33 reps during my best gymnastic-ring dip set. But, I never hop on the rings without doing a band-assisted set. Full-bodyweight exercises can take a toll on your joints in the long run if you're not careful, especially as you grow older.
Thanks again, Anthony for repeating the message of 'intensity' and building up to that final set gradually. I have been able to continue my training without injury and the very best, final sets always end with a 'half' rep. That is me working to near failure, but the results speak for themselves!
Another great video and advice. I am guilty of just jumping on the bar and going at it. Even though I used less than maximal number of reps, thinking I was warming up but my elbows were still killing me. Opted for the band method and made a noticeable difference immediately.
Hey Joe, happy to hear that. Doing the band warm up round makes a big difference. In case you don't have a band available, another thing you can do is jump to bring yourself at the top of the bar (assuming you're doing pull ups) and do 8-10 negative reps. Same thing for dips 💪🏻
When I used to deadlift/squat/bench my gradual scaling to my working set would be more extensive than 50-80-100. After an all-round warm-up, I would do around five warm-up sets (e.g., empty bar-40-60-70-80) and then switch to (3-4) working sets. Was I overdoing it, or is callisthenics different?
Hey Rijk, it depends on your goals. The goal of this program is to give a busy dad the best ROI from his workout while keeping it short. If you have more time, getting more warm-up sets in can definitely help!
Hey Greg, good question! There are a lot of ways you can do that Here's how I usually recommend you set it up if you're used to cardiosthenics (intermediate/advanced level): Round 1: Pull, push, lower body & jog 2-3 minutes (No rest required between exercises) Round 2: Pull, push, lower body, 2nd lower body, core and jog 5-7 minutes (1 minute jogging breaks between exercises) Round 3: Pull, push, lower body, 2nd lower body, core and jog 1-3 minutes (2-3 minute jogging breaks between exercises) Round 4: Secondary Pull, push, lower body (1 minute jogging breaks between exercises)

2:10 I deserve a freaking Oscar for those acting skills right there...
That's right, Anthony...Hopkins!😊

Hey Anthony, how can cardiosthenics be incorporated into the 50-80-100 method?
Hey Greg, good question!
There are a lot of ways you can do that
Here's how I usually recommend you set it up if you're used to cardiosthenics (intermediate/advanced level):
Round 1: Pull, push, lower body & jog 2-3 minutes
(No rest required between exercises)
Round 2: Pull, push, lower body, 2nd lower body, core and jog 5-7 minutes
(1 minute jogging breaks between exercises)
Round 3: Pull, push, lower body, 2nd lower body, core and jog 1-3 minutes
(2-3 minute jogging breaks between exercises)
Round 4: Secondary Pull, push, lower body
(1 minute jogging breaks between exercises)
Love the hammer and nail analogy!
Happy to hear that it made sense in my head but I wasn't sure it would sound cool in the video 😄
What kind of piano is behind you? Do you play?
It's an electric Yamaha. I've been learning since COVID, love it :))
What about deload weeks?
Once every 6 weeks is a good ratio.
