    I just finished their full program levels 1 through 5 after starting in April 2020 and can confirm the program is no bullshit, it really works. I was consistent and made sure to video myself and correct any form mistakes. I can do awesome calisthenics skills now :) great advice as always from this channel and really happy I with the results.

      I'm just starting level three. Haven't been as consistent as I wanted since I lose momentum whenever I get sick. I want to build some muscle first and then continue where I left off.

    As someone who just wants a nice, healthy physique-not getting super strong, big, ripped-the best thing I take away from this video is that I can just keep doing regular pushups and I'll be perfectly fine. Hooray for keeping it simple, with minimal planning and time investment.

    • @CursedWheelieBin
      @CursedWheelieBin Před rokem +11

      Damn right. Some dips and overhead pressing are also worthy of inclusion too.
      1. Setup by locking down every other muscle, no momentum or inertia. Maintain full body tension to maximise force production.
      2. Initiate the movement by contracting the muscle you’re trying to develop.
      3. Squeeze the muscle like it owes you money throughout the entire range of motion.
      I took these tips from a guy called Ben Pakulski years ago and it totally changed the way I perform any strength movements for the better 👍
      Sometimes when we get tired, other muscles wanna take over and it kinda goes to shit.

A lot of videos are just about workouts but they don't explain what they are doing and why they are doing different exersices. But this video gives you a basic overview which you can use to understand the exercises you're doing and to understand which motion focuses on which muscle.

    Oh that's cool to know ! Since now, I thought that the decline push ups were better because they were harder, but in fact they target different muscles.

    • @CursedWheelieBin
      @CursedWheelieBin Před rokem +3

      Yeah it prioritises those different areas, but it doesn’t 100% isolate them. Just keep that in mind.
      If you exhaust your lower pec fibres on dips, it doesn’t mean your upper pec fibres are fresh and untouched.
      Prioritising horizontal pressing gives you the most bang for your buck

    • @ggfdd5925
      @ggfdd5925 Před rokem

      you can also just alternate the exercises, do regular on one day, dips on another and decline on another. this ensures you're always fresh and spread the load evenly. high frequency training works well, if the overall volume (eg nr of sets per week) doesn't increase massively (higher injury risk, building up volume takes time)
