I have a personality that makes it much easier to be extreme than to be in balance, so I have alwayes tended to swing between deep self-destructive tendencies and almost fanatical spiritual and physical discipline. I just started therapy and my goal will be to sustain a healthy and balanced life style in 2025. Thank you for your work!
You go extreme because you want fsst results. Good health and fitness is built with sustainability over multiple years. Thats why is best to start small and work up like almost everything successful in life
@Kboges thanks man I have developed a good wide back just need to cut some fat for an aesthetic physique. I have been watching you for some years ,thanks for your guidance.
@@allenkeller6075 don't worry man . I train pull ups for 10 sets 3* a week and my reps are increasing as well as my muscles. 3 sets of wide ,3 sets of neutral , 4 set of chin .
During the pandemic and no access to anywhere but my room during isolation when I have covid brought me here. Over the years still here becoming better everyday.
I resonate with this hard. After pushing myself to exhaustion in the gym through my late teens and early 20s not only did my progress decrease but I was getting injured constantly. Now I’m learning to scale back and focus on the bigger picture for long term health
CONSISTENCY and PROGRESSIVE OVERLOAD are the ONLY two requirements for SUCCESS... If you provide these two, there is only one choice left... the fun, easy, healthy, good feeling workouts...
What’s your daily dedicated cardio (besides your daily calisthenics training and besides being very active in life)? Run for half hour or one hour? Or walk on a incline treadmill or elliptical for one hour? Thanks again! :) 🤜🤛
Writing a RUclips script. I have been thinking about going into more depth on isometrics in the paid subscription but I already have an in depth horse stance video there so I’m not sure if people want more. I’ll see how the isometric RUclips video does and if people are interested I can make more content.
I can usually set a pr in some variation every training cycle just by training close to failure and getting in my target volume. Over the year I hit multiple pr’s. So last year I hit a paused rep pull up PR. I hit an 80lb chin PR, a close grip constant tension PR, and recently hit a dead top 20lb pr. I rotate through variations of core movements and end up hitting a PR on one of them every few months or so.
It all depends if the person really wants to work out. Let's be honest, everyone knows that doing basic bodyweight movements can do a lot, but people who hate working out love to have excuses.
Nah there are a lot of newbies out there that think the only way to achieve their goals is to grind like crazy for 10+ hours a week. The average person, who lacks fitness experience, vastly overestimates the amount of work they actually need to be doing. It's a problem exacerbated by social media too, because a lot of "fitness" influencers on there just straight up lie about their work volume to make themselves look better and/or cover for their steroid abuse.
@@yewtewbstew547 No offence, I'm just talking from personal experience with some of my coworkers. Going to the gym is their first excuse(no time, no money) and refusing to learn the theoretical part is their second excuse. If I tell them that all they need is a pull-up bar and some gimnastics rings, maybe some adjustable dumbell set and weightplates, they keep on saying that they don't have the money( but it's not an issue to buy the latest iPhone), place( but it's not a problem when it comes to clothes they never use) or time( a few hours excercising in a week is a problem, but tens of hours online somehow isn't). And not to mention the part on consistency: they don't want to hear that you need to train for years. Excuses, excuses and more excuses.
@@yewtewbstew547 OK, how many people you told about calisthenics and reasonable ways to practice it actually started working out? How many people would buy, read and use a book like Convict Conditioning?

If it’s much easier for you then why do you want to change that & need a therapy?
@@DEMZY1cause they wanted to sound badass but failed
@@DEMZY1 Because it doesn't work well. It doesn't work at all, actually.

Usually 20-30 minutes of easy jogging in the AM (or double that as a brisk walk).
Never give up
NEVER
Don't Reach for the Ceiling,
when you can Push off the Floor. 🙂
Do you do any vertical presses? Like handstand or pike push ups. Do you believe they are necessary for shoulder growth, or are push ups enough?
Wise words
Thanks for watching!
Hello Kyle, Did you say you were writing a paper about isometrics? Your findings would be an interesting video

What's a good way to get the daily rep goal right?
However you can!
Hi Kyle, what is that attachment you have on your rings ?
Carabiner
I was wondering the same. What function does it serve?
It’s the short straps from rogue. I think they are on the cannonball grips. I just bought the straps separately
@@Kboges thank you, they look like they would come in handy for the rings
Perfect for rings!
Hi kyle, how do you get strong progressively over time in the long term, especially with daily calisthenics training Any suggestions.
I can usually set a pr in some variation every training cycle just by training close to failure and getting in my target volume. Over the year I hit multiple pr’s. So last year I hit a paused rep pull up PR. I hit an 80lb chin PR, a close grip constant tension PR, and recently hit a dead top 20lb pr.
