Someone brought this up in a video once, that, calisthenics aren't promoted hardly ever because there is no money to be made on them by corporations and on you buying some fancy machine/ program. I say that hits the nail exact on the head.
500lbs, I've never done a good morning in my life and I don't want to until I start plateuing for the deadlift. But is there any other exercises I should do besides that once I stop improving? Any help would be greatly appreciated, especially since I saw that there is a competion on june 14th in Waterloo, and dude you're incredibly strong. I've been writing down goals for where I want to be in the future and now one of them is to be as strong and look as good as you.
BRO no homo but ur physique is nice (if ur the dude from the 20 clapping pull ups), u do a lot of calisthenics? N this is awesome, 1 arm 1 leg push ups! can u do lyk two finger with 1 arm and 1 leg? If u can't u should work towards doing that. This is my new goal i'm able to do 1 arm push ups but not many lyk 2 or 3. But awesome job bro.
its actually pretty easy if ur in good shape (not overweight etc.) i can do like 20-30 1 hand regular pushups and those 1 hand 1 leg are just a lil bit harder cause u need better balance thats all... nothink really special try to do 1 hand pullups thats somthink!!!
Bench press is irrelevant. After taking Principles of Optimizing Human performance I learned all it does is fuck up your back and is only used for pushing someone off you in mma when flat on ur back. Push ups = street fighter kings
i understand what your sayin. I used to bench 225 and not do a single one arm pushup but after a couple of months off my bench went down to 185 but now I can do 8 one are push ups. go figure
You're a complete moron if you claim to be able to get this big doing fucking pressups - and I dont care about the variations. If you want to get bigger and stronger you need to increase the weights you use - you cant do that with bodyweight alone.
you can get as big as this guy by doing push ups and bodyweight training only. Actually you can get as big with bodyweight only training as with weighttraining, only weighttraining costs less time and is eassier!
@jlvi13 true that i hate bodyweight i like the decreased time of weight training, and very true on its easier, and also easier on the joints, if you do it right.
@jlvi13 u cant get big by doing jus weights, u have to increase ur food intake/protein to build muscle, u can pound a thousand reps, but if ur not eating right u wont gain size!
@freshsteff94 It's not a lie, but I think you don't get what I mean. Bodyweight is harder because after a while, regular push ups will not do a thing for you. To still get results you would have to do exercises like full planche push ups which is hard. You can simply start doing those when you can do 100 push ups. It's a completely different exercise. Weighttraining exercises are easy to perform. The amount of weight you use will make it heavier, but the movement will stay the same!
@jlvi13 hahaha that is one of the stupidest misconceptions that ppl have everytime they see a really cut muscular guy (but no bodybuilder big) like this guy or a male model's physique, they think 'oh only bodyweight ex + light weights'. absolutely untrue.
@jlvi13 So professional body builders could still be pros if they subbed bodyweight exercises for their weight training? If they did everything else the same, they could do nothing but bodyweight exercises and be pro bodybuilders?
@TreyGre7 I think it could be. Bodybuilding doesn't mean you need to get as big as you can, but to build a body according to some aesthetic thoughts. There are some muscles which are difficult to workout with bodyweight only, but if you know how to handle it, those shouldn't be to much of a problem. Beginners respond very good to bodyweight training, but it is more difficult once you get more advanced. So then you need more advanced bodyweight exercises. It's not easy, but it is possible!
How much can you bench? It doesn't even matter...get down and try those and tell me those aren't hard. You're lifting a decent amount of your bodyweight on one arm.
I can bench more than my upper torso weighs thats for sure. II can see exactly what hes doing, and I didnt say they were easy. They are however not the same as doing a heavy bench press for muscle growth and development.
just found your site and think it is really good. when i first saw you, i thought it was Jason Scott Lee!! (he did a couple of good movies. (still acting, but mostly i supporting rolls. looking forward to your next vid.
Hey Timbah? Do you any weight training (for your biceps, triceps, chest, etc) OR do you only use bodyweight exercises (like pushups and pull-up dip variations)?
I go to the gym just to do bodyweight exercises. I don't look like this dude, but I can do about five of those one arm one leg pushups, and I know people who do look like him who only do bodyweight conditioning.
"I know people who do look like him who only do bodyweight conditioning. "
They may only do bodyweight conditioning NOW, but in order to look like that they must have been using iron at some point. You cant get really large on bodyweight alone, it just doesnt happen.
It happen with proper nutrition, but It'll take just more more time, the muscle created with bodyweight have much more mitrondrias than the one you do with weight, so right nutrition is needed, because metabolism will go fast and u'll be creating a mad level of free radicals with that muscle.
I'm sorry dude, I know you're a smart person but I'm not misinformed, You're. I'm no the one who said he knew people like this guy, it was Jabebelleme.
Saying "I created a plasticine sculpture shaped like a tree" is not a correct statement, even though you sculped it/shaped the plasticine to look like a tree you didn't created it as it didn't appear from nowhere looking as a tree.
As I meant before saying "create" is a expression we use to mean development of something we do with a constant amount of work/ or something else.
Creation can't be achieved by humans, that is a fact.
Dude I got it from the beggining, and I know what you meant my sister is a medic, she explain everything for me when it comes to exercises, hormones, etc.
BUT I thought it has nonsense to attack me pointing that muscle isn't created, because its a expression, it may be literally wrong but you get the point of what I'm meaning.
Yeah I sort of figured that your comment was just a miswording, and you'd understand the principles well enough to have a chuckle at the pretention involved in my first comment.
I go to the gym to do bodyweights exercises most likely too, lol. The people criticize because of that lol.
I don't look like I am strong as the dudes that do insane weights but I can do harder excersices than the ones they do (not lift as much weight though).
yea but balboa only did one handed pushups just regular easy ones the ones that i am doing are one handed with one leg spread all the way across more across then this guy try doing that :)
@timbahwolf Hey man I was looking at your 20 clap pullups... do you live in Toronto? Cause I swear that's Harbord Collegiate. Just out of curiousity what gym do you work out at and what can you do for the oly lifts and the dead, squat and bench? I just started doing powerlifting so I was wondering if maybe you can give me a few tips on ways to get stronger and more powerful but stay at the same weight since I want to compete in powerlifting.
@timbahwolf I just started working out 4 months ago, I started off doing body building type exercises and then 2 months ago I started doing powerlifting. I weigh 183lbs and I bench 255lbs, squat 450lbs and deadlift 495lbs. I really want to have a good bench, how should I get to 305lbs in 8-10 months training both smart and hard? And any extra exercises I should do for deads, I've only done deads for 2 months and went from 305 to 495 and now I'm going to start wearing a belt so definetely over
Love doing these :)
