    21's are a popular bodybuilding workout method. Training the full range combined with partials at the top and bottom works wonders. This is conventionally used for bicep curls in the gym. However, this video shows how to apply a calisthenics twist to this classic move with chin-ups. The science explains why this method is most effective for muscle growth. Hypertrophy training is about keeping things fun so we can get bigger long term.

  • @powerandpresence5290
    @powerandpresence5290 2 месяца назад

    For a hell on wheels triset, try Ron Laura’s matrix system, developed 40 years ago. Choose 3 different exercises for one body part. e.g. for chest. incline bench 5 full reps, 5 half up, five half down, 5 full reps. Rest 15-20 secs. Dumbbell flies 10-15 full reps. Rest 15-20 secs, then do flat dumbbell bench press 5-5-5-5 again, same as for first exercise. You can rest two mins then repeat the entire triset, just changing the order of the exercises. And you can go for a third round after two more mins rest:
    This is inhumanly painful at first, but you will adapt after a few weeks. And yes, you have to use embarrassingly light weights, often 30-50% what you’d use for a normal set. But if you can get over the ego fall, and all your bros sayin’ “you train like a girl,” you can get tremendous benefits from this workout.
    BTW, this is entry level matrix. There are about six levels, each progressively more difficult. Naturally, you can’t do it too often, as you will burn out. I often alternate matrix with conventional weight training, one matrix session for that body part, then about 4 days later do a normal routine for that body part- which seems incredibly easy after doing the matrix system.

      If your max repetition count is 3, 4, or 5 reps then you can instead do 9's, 12's, or 15's....and as you get stronger then you will eventually be able to do 18's and 21's.
