I know this reply is 3 years later but yeah. Depending on how many sets you have. If it's 5 sets with 3 different exercises then it'll be around 56 minutes of rest time and then 8 minutes of working out it would be around an hour to an hour and 10 minutes. Hope this helps!
Well do you live in a city or a village?Anyway you can find everywhere a park or a gym near your location. You have to find it.If not be creative.Maybe you can use a playground,a door frame or something else where you can do calisthenics.That is the reason why calisthenics is called also as the sport/fitness which you can do it nearly everywhere. BTW you can buy some equipments as well as pull up bars which you can put on your door.Parallets or some extended Parallets which with you can train the handstand and do dips ect. but dont excuse yourself for having no equipment for this sport.
byEmilHero man u been sleeping under the rock or what not all countries have this kinda stuff no matter u r in the city or village. Been to many such developed countries and never seen nice parks with calisthenis stuff. Not even here in Vancouver and its not village at all
That is a really nice park, if you want it you got to make it happen. Find out what you would need to do to get your city to build something like this.
1. Choose the right progression that is suited for youre goal and the strenght lever youre at. 2. Take longer rest time 3 -5 minutes 3. Choose the workout plan to youre goals. 4. Have a good schedule dont do circuit training if you want to develop specific skills focus instead on reps and sets. 5. Be consistent always keep going everybody platues
I think the most important factors are specificity, intensity, volume, and frequency: - If you don't train the exercise you're trying to do, you won't unlock it - If you don't train with high enough intensity, you won't build the necessary strength - If you train with too much or too little volume, you won't be able to adapt to higher loads - Same with frequency: training once a month won't do anything, but neither will training 7 times a week
What about doing a kind of circuit training where one have 3-5 minutes rest between each exercise. Hence one would get 20 minuites rest between each set in the same excercise if one have 4 different excercises. Is this a good idea if one tries to build strength and skills?
The 4th tip was what I needed to hear. I often do full body circuit training and wonder why I'm struggling to increase my max pull ups or master planche etc. Great video as always guys!!
I'm 14 too. I have trouble learning muscle ups and pull-ups, like full range of motion. I just can't finish off that rep until my chest reaches the bar, barely to my chin, I also swing to much. Any suggestions?
@Elijah i’m probably super late BUT to stop swinging then you have to slant your legs a little bit forward. it activates your core and keeps your muscles tighter which stops you from swinging. hope i helped🤷🏾♂️
You guys are the best channel - no ads, no useless info, best explanations, best visuals to show everything and as the other guy said, really every video is useful, not like only clickbaits and some random photos and pictures
These are great points. I’ve made decent progress in my journey but it’s been painstakingly slow and inconsistent. I’ve been making most of these mistakes. Will heavily recommend this video and channel
Your videos are always great and the science and logic behind them are always explained simply for everyone with truth and sincerity;This video was very informative,thank you very much!
Sir.. You are the Magnacarta of real fitness. Your training and methodology contains ETHICS of one's fitness. Thank you so much for existing on this earth. Will meet you someday as a trainer and a desciple. God bless you 😊
Thanks, Alex. You have the best presentation and narration. Your effort and hard work is quite clear. Thanks for a such a great piece of information. Well done. BTW what are those blue shoes.
Woooooowww not only amazed with your unbelievably detailed instructions and guiding but also with that outdoor white and blue place I looooove it where is it???
Another excellent video!! 👍👍 Recently I have set a goal to be able to do one arm push ups. In this video you recommended to do archer pushups initially and progress from there. Excellent advice!
best video ever, thanks a lot for sharing the knowledge. Have been kind of stuck on a couple of progressions, now i understand why, bad programming... Wasting too much energy on exercises that are not for my goals. Will give this a try for the following month :)
You are my inspiration teacher ...i learned a lot from you ..i really appreciate you..for your hard work and for teaching us.....and don't pay too much attention for bad comments and funny ones ...they are one in your life who will let you down ....So...keep it up ......
Love this video - it’s exactly what I needed. I’m being too varied in my workouts. Also jealous of your park, lol. The UK just don’t have them around! It’s good I’ve bought some parallel bars and a chin-up bar. New sub here. 👍🙌👏👏
Wow, what an amazing park! Where is that? If you focus on strength and learning skills it is definitely important to take longer rest and do strict sets instead on circuit routines. Opposite, if your goal is endurance, than shorter rest time and circuit routines. Another great job guys!
These guys have that gift, that is so rare, and it's to teach others, regardless of their talent level how to accomplish what something they themselves can do. When a pro can break it down on a noob level, you know they're actually good. Cheers Alex and the other guy whose name I can't remember right now. The resting-angry-face blond guy lol
I always start with skill training (i.e. muscle ups) for 15-30 minutes. After that I like to do circuit training, alternating pull and push exercises. I take enough rest between sets during the circuit and I'm seeing decent gains with this method (Strength and hypertrophy). In fact I feel less arm fatigue on pull ups on the next round than if I would just do regular sets, then my arms will start blowing up lol.
Since I guess you're the best calisthenics youtube channel, could you please consider uploading a video of the perfect dip? no one did that !! I don't mean the difference between chest/triceps/shoulders dips. I mean the right way to preform to activate the muscles in order to produce the greatest force!. I thought my form is good until I started adding weights and it turned out that I was relying a bit on joints instead of muscles. Thank you guys always!
Always when i did dips i felt some kind of pressure in my right elbow...i found out it was because i was pushing harder with my right hand without noticing it. I equalized it by concentrating to put equal presssure on both arms and the problem disappeared
I returned to calisthenics after over a 18 months break (shoulder injury). Thanks to you guys, now i know what i did bad, how to focus on most important things, and how to progress quicker, but in safe way! Big Kudos to you!
@@ilias_2722 thanks m8, all is ok now:) yup, unfortunately...at the beginning I was really depressed, as I couldn't imagine day w/o workout...but in the end, it all depends what is your decision - should I sit and despair, that I cannot train, or maybe figure out what I can do instead of focusing on what I can't?

@@wallesdrop3026 I dislocated my shoulder, when I was doing wall handstand - I know it may sounds like a bogus, but my cat jumped on me, I lost the balance, and fell badly, joint was damaged, tendons as well. Recovery was really long

@@breezy2_194 it doesn't help at all.
do long rest time only in hard exercises.
you can do easier high rep exercises without big rest
nice park you have there
i wish we had some of those where i live
instead, it's full of fast food joints and betting arenas

@Yo Dawg buy some rings, then you'll be able to pull, push, hold, do some dips, abs exercises or whatever you want to do almost everywhere.
Where in the holy hell is this outdoor park?!
It's gorgeous.

You should take longer rest time between exercises too?
@@mkthefit7780 this didn't work with me, i tried it for 2 month and gain almost nothing
Vu Khoi You cant expect to gain anything from 2 months you have to exercise for a year to see any noticable muscle growth.
@@mkthefit7780 if you want muscle growth do a lot of reps with little pause, but if you want to become strong and actually do stuff, take long rests

when he said long rest times I thought "days" not minutes :P
I thought decades or centuries. Even Millenia
Me too😆
@@bensimmons6149 So, the next exercise will be done by your zombified body? 😂
Solid tips! The 3-5 minutes is definitely true... a great way to make progress but it's boring! More time for dancing between sets lol
You know you're doing it right when you can just enjoy the songs on your workout playlist between Sets
what's the time then if the excercise isn't really that hard
What about doing a kind of circuit training where one have 3-5 minutes rest between each exercise. Hence one would get 20 minuites rest between each set in the same excercise if one have 4 different excercises. Is this a good idea if one tries to build strength and skills?
You can do stretches for totally different muscle groups in between...
Sortagymnastics haha I used to do sit-ups between sets and just walk around burn calories
The 4th tip was what I needed to hear.

Really nice video. That park looks absolutely gorgeous! Thanks guys!
some Fridays are quite satisfying....!
@Muhammad Redha they will! Im 14 and they are growing! Just keep at it, you can do it!
@Muhammad Redha well take a day or two off! To grow them properly, but yes bro, go for it!
I'm 14 too. I have trouble learning muscle ups and pull-ups, like full range of motion. I just can't finish off that rep until my chest reaches the bar, barely to my chin, I also swing to much. Any suggestions?
@@els3099 you're probably past that point already, however, if you still want to achieve better pullups go for slow negative repetitions :)
@Elijah i’m probably super late BUT to stop swinging then you have to slant your legs a little bit forward. it activates your core and keeps your muscles tighter which stops you from swinging. hope i helped🤷🏾♂️
