Doing calisthenics outdoors, and just having that peace by yourself sure is nice but that doesn't mean just because you enjoy something doesn't mean the other is trash. Going to gym and weight lifting has its advantages also just like for outdoor calisthenics. Going to gym is what got me started and the very thing that improved my socialization skills. It's not just about in and out of the gym but also the interactions and friends you've made along the way, the gym bros that had helped me get this far.

One thing: The lungs are so efficient that they're almost never gonna be the limiting factor (unless you have a lung disease or deformity) It's the cardiovascular system that's weak and needs training
Calisthenics is more about functional strength and progressing into skills. Anyone can choose to do a harder variation rather than increase the reps. And who enjoys waiting to rest without at least doing 20+ reps per set anyway?
There's no such thing as strength that's not functional. And anyone who's serious about actually getting stronger will enjoy their rest and recovery, as the point of training is to get stronger and better, not to do useless tricks, look cool and be strong.

It's not bodybuilding or training for hypertrophy that's harmful or make you less functional. There is never anything harmful or less functional about training, eating right and sleeping right. But it shouldn't come as a shock that taking drugs is harmful.
With purely body weight exercises, no matter what, you can get the effect of hypertrophy by doing really slow and controlled negatives. For example, on a push-up, you would go down really slow and controlled, but at the same time kind of flex your muscles on the way down, like your almost trying to go against the downward motion. That’s the best I can explain it, but you can achieve even as low as 3 rep maxes for purely body weight doing that.
Problem isn't with the cardio. It's the time consuming nature of high rep workout. I faced it. It just isn't fun. Most of us have schools, colleges and work. We don't want to spend that much time on workout alone.
bro why are you complaining about lactic acid it is literally the symbol of victory to me it lets you know you exercised enough and makes you feel accomplished
I half agree. I can do 60+ pushups one go. My record is 78 and Im still smoking but I also strength train and train boxing and kickboxing. You can definitely build muscle if you can push yourself, which you should, but its definitely "easier" with weights. The more reps you do the more you train endurance over strength.
this describes my struggles to the point. ive been consistantly working out for a about a year now. when i was at 10 reps per set for a total of 3 sets before, im now at 20+ reps per set for a total of a 100 - 200 reps (dips or push ups for example). and it feels disgusting to train in that range, but its the only way i feel like i can still make progress without going to the gym or adding weights in another way. its getting harder and harder to exhaust my muscles rather than my mental or stamina with each workout.
have you tried harder progressions of pushups for example one arm pushups pike pushups etc. It works for me just do progression you can do 10 reps max with and then a bit easier for 15 reps and then you can switch to chest dips and normal dips. that workout gets my triceps and chest on fire.
What about one arm push-ups, one arm pull-ups, front lever raises, impossible dips, handstand push-ups? Still calisthenics, but I don't thing anyone any time soon will say things like "I hate doing 30 one arm pull-ups in a single set, I'm not good at cardio for that" lol
Or you could not spend any money and do 5 or 10 more reps. Which doesnt take "all day" and gets you closer to failure and safer. How does bigger weights take you closer to failure when there are lower weight reps in the corner of your fatigue ceiling you still haven't gotten? I like weightlifting more. But theres tons of bullsht that comes with it. And i am really good at lifting weights yet i cant do a 15 strict pullup set. This means there is an extremely high skill and strength ceiling. Also if you cant do 30 pushups bc of cardio......you shouldnt even be touching weights lmao. I dont do cardio at all but i can do 30 pushups lol its not that bad guys cmon. I feel vulnerable with the amount of cardio i already lack. And when i do pushups i never feel like my lungs are the problem. When i get to 45 pushups i run out of actual energy in my muscles, not air in my lungs. At any point in time im only a few inches off the ground. If you dont breathe right when lifting weights in all those reps everyday youre going to get hurt and have an iron bar above your neck or head. Absolutely lift weights. But also do pushups. I cant believe this guy has such a nice body but calls 30 pushups hard cardio. One day ill have a nice body and make videos talking about how mixed training is great. I dont see how benching 200lbs or doing a pushup is much different other than one costs a bunch of money time and space and risk of injury and often needing a spotter vs.....a pushup.
@@m0-m0597 wouldn't say it's nonsense though, the video did explain how starting weighted calisthenics is much more optimal than doing normal bodyweight calisthenics (once you become advanced and when it becomes harder for you to reach failure)
A mixture of weightlifting and calisthenics is ideal. Eg, pullups/dips are excellent long term mass builders, however bench press and barbell squats are superior for chest/legs
That is if you have enough experience of actual sets to failure, since most people can't really go this far. Besides, you should still count, since if your rep count for failure is LOWER then your previous (last week's, for example) rep count, something might be going wrong!
@@yacined4882 that's what I'm thinking, I don't mind a hybrid workout but the way he makes it seem like you can't progress with calisthenics (and weighted calisthenics) is pure BS
Adding weights in a small progression is golden. Also for pushups, can start building towards pseudo planche push-up or archer pushups. Adding weights in a backpack is also quite simple and efficient.
And more aesthetic ones if you ask me. Bodybuilders have significantly more body fat even if they appear lean than calisthenics ppl. Bigger =/= better looking. In fact, I'd venture as far as to hypothesize that the physique one can build with calisthenics is as close to optimal for a person of given height (and specific genetics) as possible.
@@miloradvlaovic Low % bf is literally the whole point of winning a body building competition. Bodybuilding is about to be as close to die because of having too little amount of body fat without actually dying as possible while still staying muscular. They will "bulk" to some extent on off-season because they have to, but they can't get too fat because when their next competition is coming they have to get back down again. How you look is 100% genetic, based on your frame, skeletal structure and all you can only either grow muscle or body fat, some kids are born with a 6 pack and wider shoulders than waists (fuck those guys btw), they will do yoga and look like bodybuilders / fitness models and you wouldn't believe them, others are born narrow and will train bodybuilding for 20+ years and even taking steroids and they will look like a calisthenics athlete.
Now the question is, do you want to build muscle and become stronger, or do you want to be agile, have good cardiovascular health, do impressive stunts in the long run? Or just do both, as mentioned in the video. It's really an irresistible offer, isn't it?
yeah but how many people are doing 30 planch pushups, or 30 front lever pulls? 30 strict muscleups? that's better trained than nearly anyone on a barbell. in callisthenics you adapt the progression, not just the reps.
Oh don't worry about that I weigh 250 so unless I really start losing this weight I'll probably be fine as far as bodyweight exercises are concerned. But if I keep training hard and then start losing weight... Yeah I'll need to add some weights pretty quickly.
I trained with heavy weight as an amateur for about 5-7 years. Not regularly like most amateurs. I didn't gain any significant muscle mass. Then I switched to light weight and I gained more in 6 months than I did in 6 years.
@@89simba57 It's just so weird to hear it.

yes, absolutely. i don't have cardio, i don't have muscles, i don't have drive, i don't have lungs, but i will do 6 reps * 3 times a day * 18 days per month, approximately. this will be enough torture for a woman like me : ), but i love the outcome it gives

Yeah, im mentally exhausted then physically exhausted after doing the sets. Especially on statics jesus man, my brain is about to explode before I can even reach failure.
If I'm not weight training I found that after about 30 to 50 reps with my bodyweight. If I find I can do more. I start half prepping and found it helps me build up that lactic acid a bit faster
my main problem is that my deltoid becomes way too tired because all my workouts use a lot of shoulders. I do 3 sets of: -3min rope pulling (front and sides) -40sec overhead extended plank -17side plank crunch and then hold for 20sec for each side -10 one hand pushup for each arm -crunches then 30min run
Actually i love high reps because i love exercising in general!! I would do it non stop if I wouldn't die from exhaustion,lol! There are countless variations,even an inch changes the muscle contraction.. 5 finger, 4,1 finger push ups etc, it's limitless even with body weight :)
Lmao, it depends upon your goals. If you want to body building using weights is always more optimal. Calisthenics is a different type of training for a different type of lifestyle and results. Now add functional training exercises for a different body result. It all depends on your lifestyle goals and what suits you the best.
Not at all, nobody seems to talk about skill training like maltese, planche, iron cross and front lever. They build tremendous amount of muscle and I've seen athlete reach their genetic limit with only skill training
Daniel, If I add weight, and go to range of 8 to 10 reps of 3 sets to any exercise, will growth happen, My question is, How many reps, we should be targeting and how many sets, or we should go until failure with weights too...
Thats just one factor of muscle growth. With calisthenics you can keep on growing increasing wither one of muscle growth parameters, or two or three. 1. Weight, 2. Reps 3.time under tension. If u train 6 days a week no point to train urself down to soreness or failure, youll be jacked and strong without these, its not bodybuilding its a different game with own rules.
The goal isn't to build muscle though. It's to do the exercise. If you can do 30 reps you are done, that is the goal. Keep on maintaining while moving on to another exercise.
Progressive overload is key for weightlifting AND CALESTHENICS. Not more reps more challenging position. Push-ups to easy. Place your feet higher, attempt a hand stand push-up.
If you're limited by your lungs, work on those. Is the goal bigger muscles or fitness ? Also, lactic acid is a marker of exercise but not a bad thing that translates to fatigue.
Isn't the point of body weight exercise to outgrow the particular lift and move on to the harder variation? Example, shouldn't you be doing planchet pushup
Me who can perform easily 160+ Push-ups Nonstop with perfect form And many more calisthenics exercises this calisthenics exercises bring me into good shape of my life Just train till failure you will achieve results since our body adpats fast that's why progressive overload is important I also enjoy training high reps 😀
Actually that's true, every time i did a super set my heart was just beating fast as hell Right now im way better, but yeah that's something often happens when you're not used to something

Actually i love high reps because i love exercising in general!! I would do it non stop if I wouldn't die from exhaustion,lol! There are countless variations,even an inch changes the muscle contraction.. 5 finger, 4,1 finger push ups etc, it's limitless even with body weight :)
At last one of the calesthenic influencers admits this. It's so important to use weights if you really want to grow.
That's not what he said
Lmao, it depends upon your goals. If you want to body building using weights is always more optimal. Calisthenics is a different type of training for a different type of lifestyle and results. Now add functional training exercises for a different body result. It all depends on your lifestyle goals and what suits you the best.
Not at all, nobody seems to talk about skill training like maltese, planche, iron cross and front lever. They build tremendous amount of muscle and I've seen athlete reach their genetic limit with only skill training
In summary: "Hit the gym too"...
Have you ever seen a jacked long distance runner?
is good to build muscle and strength with high reps while contracting your muscle
I remember I used to do 25 pull ups til failure and then I'd move to the next exercise, dumbbell curls, my performance just drops like crazy
The new anabolics are amazing.
I do push-ups with a weighted vest, I’ve learned I get better pumps with it than just using my bodyweight..
Bro where are long format videos and start gym videos and gym exercise also
Virgin high rep enthusiasts VS Chad super set enjoyer
High reps is becoming a bit more popular with guys like iron wolf and masked mediator repping out thousand of reps and people like watching them.
When can I start adding weight to my push-ups? Can I use one of those weighted vests?
Idk if there are any heavy enough (in long term). I'm using backpack with weights.
Is correct 👌
EPO and other PEDs help too
I like calisthenics because it is mentally challenging. For me at least.😊
Daniel, If I add weight, and go to range of 8 to 10 reps of 3 sets to any exercise, will growth happen, My question is, How many reps, we should be targeting and how many sets, or we should go until failure with weights too...
Thats just one factor of muscle growth. With calisthenics you can keep on growing increasing wither one of muscle growth parameters, or two or three. 1. Weight, 2. Reps 3.time under tension. If u train 6 days a week no point to train urself down to soreness or failure, youll be jacked and strong without these, its not bodybuilding its a different game with own rules.
Giovanni Lo Celso look alike
word
He is absolutely right. Chalistenicst are not fore most people🔥🔥
Yes, it is not for weak sissies who gets out of breath after doing 30 pushups LOL😅
i still can’t do 30x3 diamond push ups
What's the secret of your juicy biceps and quads
for biceps the key is straight arm isometrics like gymnasts do.
@@kolpodinos9316 should I do the same for quads
The goal isn't to build muscle though. It's to do the exercise. If you can do 30 reps you are done, that is the goal. Keep on maintaining while moving on to another exercise.
cant u just do a harder variation?
I agree but the goal of callisthenics is not the strength but the aesthetics of an exercise like for example : the jump on the bar or the human flag
What's up with the bots
What about harder progressions instead?
Would milking the rep (going extra slow) be equal or similar to adding weight ?
Progressive overload is key for weightlifting AND CALESTHENICS. Not more reps more challenging position. Push-ups to easy. Place your feet higher, attempt a hand stand push-up.
Or just use rings to do harder variations of your exercise
What about resistance bands? Are weights somehow preferable?
The solution deserves a little more time
Shouldn't add weight until you can properly do unilateral movements like single arm pushups or pistol squats , but that's just an opinion
High reps are boring AF
LIES
And time consuming.
@@RealGigaMind Time consuming = more cardio benefits
😅so glad you finally admitted it is possible lol
If you're limited by your lungs, work on those. Is the goal bigger muscles or fitness ?
Also, lactic acid is a marker of exercise but not a bad thing that translates to fatigue.
Started with 500 a day last august, im up to 2,500 a day now 💪🏼
Isn't the point of body weight exercise to outgrow the particular lift and move on to the harder variation? Example, shouldn't you be doing planchet pushup
High reps are mentally more challenging than lower reps
Me who can perform easily 160+ Push-ups Nonstop with perfect form
And many more calisthenics exercises this calisthenics exercises bring me into good shape of my life
Just train till failure you will achieve results since our body adpats fast that's why progressive overload is important
I also enjoy training high reps 😀
You most have alot of time on your hands, with weights you can have the same benefits in quarter the time
@@symbiosisai i have no that much time also i have no access to weights
If you want try weighted calisthenics
whoa, "the average person doesnt have good enough cardiac health...." 😂
Actually that's true, every time i did a super set my heart was just beating fast as hell
Right now im way better, but yeah that's something often happens when you're not used to something
