      In your Video, you say 70 reps per body movement. For example push up variations 3x8, 3x15 and 1x15. Should I aim 70 reps per body movement PER workout? Or per week? But in your workout program, it is only 3x12 for push ups. So only about 36reps instead of 70? What is correct now?

    I did this workout for a few months. Didn’t really change up my diet too much, maybe less beer.
    I lost a few pounds, but I gained a ton of strength and muscle in my shoulders, back, and chest. I’m eating cleaner now and it’s helping. It’s a really hard workout even with the simpler exercises. Pipe press is hard after a bunch of pushups. I did OHP instead. I do more pull ups now, more push ups, and I even tried some athlean X workouts and they were too easy after doing this. Thanks a lot Tao. I’ll keep it up but rows for the hoes has definitely made my back much more muscular!!! Not like ripped.... lol but the muscle is noticeable

      @@oscarpardo8440 Let's say Horizontal push is a movement
      You gotta hit 40 - 70 reps for it
      You can do any kind of horizontal pushing exercise like push ups or assisted push ups or ring push ups, etc.
      You can divide the reps however you like
      Example:
      Regular pushups 3sets of 10reps
      Knee pushups 2sets of 10reps
      Diamond pushups 2sets of 10reps

      Muscle is muscle, it shouldn’t really make a difference (other than for example callisthenics have more emphasis on abs). The only other difference i can think of is people that do callisthenics tend to care more about being lean as it makes you better at callisthenics.

      @@obviouslymatt6452 I think what he is referring to is that because most calisthenics work outs work multiple muscle groups you get more even definition as opposed to bodybuilders that can look a little lopsided (unnatural in his words) because of how targeted on a particular muscle group weights can be.

      @synitarthrax5618 4 года назад +6

      I think it's because weight trained BB's tend to do a lot more isolation work. Instead of muscles being built in a symmetrical way with compound Body Weight exercises, the isolation work done by the iron crowd forces some muscles to be "out of whack" or basically not in proportion with each other. While the iron crowd does do compound movements, the time spent on isolation movements usually equals and often exceeds the time spent on those compound movements. I think this difference gives the appearance of Body Weight BB's being leaner or perhaps more athletic looking. It's not that Body Weight BB's don't do isolation exercises but from what I've experienced, the time Body Weight BB's spend on isolation work is dramatically lower than the iron crowd.

      I know I shouldn't be, but I'm equally embarrassed going to the gym though ironically since my disability is invisible (surgical scars I can cover.) so I look like a really out of shape gal taking way too many rests when my pain spikes. I feel this is a great start until I 'need' rings and weights. (I'd have to double check if I'm allowed to lift weights.) My lower-body is already quite strong after 18 months (with help from a physical therapist, he build me up to squats, hip hinge and core at the basic level) and now just looking to move forward and how to start working on my upper-body. Let's both give it our all and good luck to you stranger!
      (In my case it's osteoarthritis, a hip-femur that's almost in-existent due to leg-calvé-perthes being treated improperly whilst I was young and a curve in my spine. I want to use what's left of my hip to get in shape before I need a new one.)

    Game Plan
    -2-4 Sessions per week
    -Full Body Routines
    Full Body A:
    Horiz Push
    Vert Push (Flexion)
    Horiz Pull
    Squat
    Core
    -
    Full Body B:
    Vert Push (Extension)
    Vert Pull
    Horiz Pull
    Hip Hinge
    Core
    Ex:
    Day 1- FB- A | Day 2- FB-B | Day 3- Active Rest | Day 3- FB- A | Day 4- FB- B etc.
    Workout Volume
    40-70 Overall Reps Goal (for each movement pattern)
    5-15 reps (per set)
    ex: 4 sets of 15 reps to equate to 60 overall reps, 5 sets of 9 reps= 45 overall reps, 6 sets of 7 reps= 42 overall reps
    *If you want less reps do more sets, if you want less sets do more reps*
    If you can't do more than 5 of an exercise, do easier progression
    If you can do more than 15, do harder progression
    *Aim to get stronger, variations are key to progressing so refer to videos for ideas*
    Active Rest is doing something passively active on rest days so your body stays in motion even when not working out ex: swimming, doing mobility exercises, working on flexibility, yoga, jogging, going for a walk, stretching, jump rope, doing any sport etc.

  • @SquidiusDaGod
    @SquidiusDaGod 4 года назад +8

    Great video, but I'm missing how long you should do for rests between sets, and how you structure your sets. For example, do you do all of your squat sets consecutively before going on to the next muscle group?

    • @christianjohnz
      @christianjohnz 2 года назад

      if you never got a answer for some reason, an 80 second rest or until you can breath fine again you can move onto the next part of your set. after each set its best to wait 3 and a half minutes before going again

    • @dylansatriplucy2315
      @dylansatriplucy2315 2 года назад

      No more than a minute and thirty seconds per set so that the muscles are continually strained so they break down and grow stronger. I like to push myself usually maybe thirty fourty seconds tops

  • @milud900

    After seeing this video I’m going to start my fitness journey and come back and write progression every month.
    Wish me luck!!
    17 days in : i know it is not a month yet but I have done a really good progress when it comes to strength, my pushups went from barely being able to do 3 to be able to do 15 with a really good form .( I also included some weight training with it , for example in chest day I will do bench press , incline press and pushups , dips and finally I will finish with some cable flies) for the the back it has been a little hard because I am overweight stats 182cm and my weight is around 92kg with , so I have decided to start with assisted pull ups with counter weight , I am really anticipating to do my first non assisted pull up. Peace!
    Edit:
    Holy f**k it’s been a year since the last time i watched this video, and I completely forgot about it😅.
    So I continued following the training program for about 4 months while dropping weight(went from a chubby 92kg to a lean 75kg) and my maxes were:
    18 chinups with perfect form (could’ve done 22)
    50 diamond pushups
    100 squats
    After I hit those numbers the gyms opened back so I decided to start weight lifting.
    So right now im following a full body split training 3 times week and the program is very simple. But I had to stop training for around 3 months because of Ramadan and I also had igcse exams and got sick with covid. But after I fully recovered I returned to body weight training while regaining my strength on the basic lifts.
    Now that I’m back to the gym again My bench went from 60kg to 85kg in 9 weeks and I think I wouldn’t been able to do it if I didn’t build my base with just basic pushups .
    Right now I can do 6 chinups with 30 kg.
    I know I still got a long way to go but I’m very happy with the progress I have made.
    Thank you Tao!!
    Edit: Three years have gone by since I have last seen this video, so here's a little update:
    85kg at 182cm
    300lbs bench for 3 reps
    50kg pull up for 6 reps
    I can do an assisted handstand pushup on a wall (still haven't mastered yet)
    I unlocked one arm pushups a while ago
    I have also moved to gymnastics rings two weeks ago which made me revisit this video just to look at the progressions which four years ago seemed next to impossible to do. So yeah consistency is key.
    Edit 2024: I just hit 315 bench

    Wow! It is truly amazing how much focus goes into calisthenics. I've been doing normal strength training with weights for about 2 years but it doesn't compare to this. I'm seriously considering switching to a calisthenics based workout
    I think it will work better for me being a young footballer. Thank you Muchacho🔥❤️
