- Is K Boges Right About Progressive Overload? In his vide " Stop Chasing Progressions" he discusses ideas on progressive overload how we maybe doing it in the wrong way which is harming our ability to build muscle and get stronger, with a strong focus on calisthenics and progressions used in that and calisthenics skills.
The ideas in this video are very interesting and I do believe will help people have a better understanding on progressive overload especially when it comes to calisthenics and calisthenics progressions for skills.
Are people forcing progressive overload at the expense of of the ability to build muscle , hypertrophy and getting stronger. Are people using progressive calisthenics in the right way or are they increasing their chances of not seeing results and even getting injured. Calisthenics or bodyweight training is a fantastic way to train but some people find creating progressive overload harder especially compared to weight training, hopefully after watching this video you will have a better under standing. Focusing on exercises like pull ups, push ups and squat to inverted rows and dips, focusing on perfecting the form and technique you will be able to get the results you are after
I love Kyles channel, and good on you using your platform to help him get more exposure, it’s a very under rated channel, I’m a huge fan of the no nonsense approach to body weight training, you should also check out some of Adorian Moldovan of “Old School Calisthenics” particularly his older videos. the world needs more creators like him and Kyle Boggeman.
It’s a great channel and great to see a channel spreading sensible effective advice , nothing flashing but in a way common sense training. Something we can all use and apply and actual understand.
Kyle Boges is legit!! My favorite calisthenics channel!
Yes he has an awesome channel and a genuinely nice guy too
@@LeeDowningKeat I just subscribed to you, it shows character to acknowledge another in your same field of expertise and knowledge. Kudos! 👍
Appreciate that Leonard , welcome to the channel and hope the information here you find useful 💪
3:30 more people should hear this. Also progress doesn't go linearly, sometimes it takes a couple of weeks to add even a small plate to a certain weighted exercise and that's fine too. Other weeks it goes faster. You should just see progress over a period of a couple of weeks.
I'm so sick of these ppl claiming that you should add 5kg to your weighted pull ups every week to make progress. It's ridiculous, besides the weight you add depends on the weight that you're at. 5+5 kg is a much larger increase then 30+5kg. This random advice to add x every week makes those who are just starting out with weighted calisthenics unnecessarily doubt themselves when they feel they don't progress at this rate.
Edit: gonna check out this guy too he speaks sense. Thanks for the recommendation 👍
I agree. In relation to weighted calistenics, I've found a weight I could do 5 reps on pull-ups. After discovering that, my goal was to achieve the most out I could get from this exercise with this set up. After a few months, I managed to do two consecutive sets of 6 reps (ps.: I also do other pullups with lighter weights before this especific set up). Today, I tried to improve my reps, but I failed in the middle of the 7th. It means to me I should still master the 6 reps with this weight before progressing the number of reps. I plan to increase the weights only after getting 8 reps, with the cleanest form as possible. But I'm not in a hurry... I will increase the weights and reps only when I feel prepared... only after progressing
@@tiagopiresabud4154 great example that is exactly what I meant. Keep doing this and you'll set yourself up with some very solid strength and good control over your movements! 💯💪
Yes completely agree then think progression is always linear but it’s not , many variables and as you become more advanced you have to try different versions of progressions. It’s not to focus more on the training and the process of it than just progressing for the sake of it. Plus especially when it comes to strength training , we all have days where we feel stronger and weaker and it’s always representing of our overall strength levels and that also needs to be taken into it
K boges is the best
Yes great channel
Progressive overload is allowed by good consistent training, it should not be chased. If i do 3 sets of good pushups every day, i will be able to do more and more reps as the weeks proceed. I would also get stronger even if i didnt increase the reps, the reps would get easier over time.
yes agree that consistent training is paramount but i think yes and no for chasing progressive overload and saying it should not be chased as a blanket statement is wrong. Your right and if you consistently did push ups over the weeks you would be able to do more and would get stronger with them, with the argument im sure you will make is its not the forcing of progressions that make up stronger but when progress first then are able to do them right? To a agree i will agree, how can we progress if we are not already able to do them however we do need to have progressive overload in our mind and focused on progressing with volume or intensity etc. If we do 10 push ups 3 sets of every day sure we would improve but if we did that for a year we would have be improving all year or would we have it a plateau? it doesnt matter if we put the progressive overload in place or our body is ready first it needs to be in place, the body adapts to stress and once its adapted it will stop progressing, a newer stress needs to be placed on it for the body to 'have a need ' to adapt. i understand your point and its something more people need to think about especially if they think they can 'force ' progressive overload
But the question is, if we have great form and technique, do our muscles get bigger by doing the same number of sets and reps each week? I assume not, so at some point we have to increase the volume or add weight And to know whether we are doing that or not we have to record the sets of reps each time to see how many we have done. So if last time I managed 14 press-ups , and then attempt press-ups again, what do I do ? Should I attempt to beat by as many as possible or just do 15 ? Or do I not even look at how many I did last time and just do as many as possible in good form ? In this case, do I never record the number and just do them ? Sounds ok In theory but what if I’m still doing 14 reps a year later ? And maybe because I didn’t make enough effort to do more !
At some point you are right and the stimulus we apply isn't enough to progress anymore. So increasing volume and weight is one way sure but we can also look at increasing time under tension, adding in pauses, more eccentric work, other factors other than those 2 you can use as tools. This can be the problem of chasing progression is you are focused on the number of reps and not the push up. paralysis by analysis. Also how do we know 14 is your max, might be more, how do we know you didn't stop there as you set that in your mind as a target and therefore stopped there. The main point is most people focus on progressions or chasing the next goal before focusing on form or sacrifice form in the chasing. The fact you are conscious of it I don't think you need to worry as much and if your form and technique are there again, if you can do more than 14 do more as long as you don't sacrifice your form in those added reps.
sorry for the late reply
