Congrats dude, I saw the duration and thought it would be full of "it depends" BS or sponsors and shit. Nope, two days, directly to the fucking point. Awesome, keep up the good work
man you are incredible, you are on a whole other level. I thought you only did calisthenics but I just watched some compilations and I saw all those crazy shit you do at high altitudes and shit. please man don't put your life at risk so many people have died from doing these things up on towers and bridges. be careful is all I say don't ever stop doing what you enjoy just be careful
For a moment there..I thought you were recording this video on one of those movie set blue screens, place looks surreal brother! Great content, thanks!
I like the way you write down the questions Dominik and read them from your book instead of a phucking phone! Nice! Dominik, do you wirte your workouts down / do you log your workouts?
Im a PT and agree with everything you said. Yes u can train everyday GTG but u have to b very careful. 2 different lifts max and opposing lifts eg squat and press. If u do a physical job or any other sports you may overtrain very easily so beware.
Hi Dominik, just wanted you to know that I admire you and hoping you will grow bigger and bigger (both RU-vid and strength). I find your videos as honest as well explained and that's something I really appreciate. Keep it up man and good luck
Where is your traditional “peace”✌️?))Thank you for your energy, motivation and openness! I’d like to ask you :” When should basically one move to training for the strength (5*5 scheme)?E.g. after 15 pull-ups in one set and erc?Because as I understand trainings for strength require good foundation, strong joints..Or just after 5*5 of bodyweight pull-ups one cam add a little weight? Thanks in advance.
Hi Dominik. Thanks for the very comprehensive answer to that question. If I understand right, when you are interested in skill training your push/pull sessions needs to be done a bit more often but with a lesser amount of sets. How many sets would you recommend for a single skill? How many skills do you usually train for one week of your training schedule? Keep up the great work!
Question: How do you program muscle-up training into a pull-push-handstand/legs schedule? What kind of training schedule do you recommend? I want to train pull-push-handstand/legs like you suggest but I also want to train for the muscle-up. P.S. I love your videos Dominik, you're an inspiration to me, thank you for sharing your wisdom.
Hi Dominic, Thank you for your great and passionate advices as always. My question to you, Is it possible to work on different goals (strength, hypertrophy, skills, endurance, flexibility,..) at one time period? Or Is it better to work on each goal separately? Thanks.
Hi Dominik Can I just start by saying that I have learnt so much from watching your posts on RU-vid. I am currently adapting to your push/pull/handstand approach. I have watched your breakdown of pushing and pulling variations. I am very keen to progress in most if not all of the variations. My question is: You have so many variations and exercises for pushing and pulling, To progress in each exercise, should I pick 4 or 6 exercises and work on these until I have progressed and then move on to other variations. Or should I perform every variation on each session with less sets ? Thanks. You are a legend
bulgarian method - always with 90%+ of your power with goal to breaking own record here he says this but with proper rest to that 90%+ being of your total output possible not relative daily which is less because of tiredness and repair process but you can still isometricallly train your nervous system these 2 days while resting
I would say from my perspective and many experiments with greasing the groove, i do feel like GTG works best for strength moves that doesnt put too much stress on the joint or tendon (front lever, front lever pull,...). Therefore, u can supplement GTG for fl in addition to ur workout, just make sure proper diet, sleep and rest. I can now do front lever and front lever pull up just by GTG (no additional workout for front lever). For Planche, its better to focus more on your real training rather adding GTG in, since Planche requires lots of warm up and can easily causes injuries. That's just my opinion, hope that helps
Hoang Kha Nguyen thank you for your answer. I‘ve experienced similar things. When I did additional GTG for planche my progress wasn‘t so good and my arms and scapula strenght felt weak in my normal trainings. Meanwhile with front lever I got very good progress so that I can hold a front lever now for about 6 seconds. Planche is much harder for me. I‘m stuck with the tuck planche and try to reach a straddle planche mostly with band assisted training. How do you train for planche to reach a straddle or even a full planche?
Aurel Berger There was few blogs about gtg and static skills. It is not adviced to do it with harder statics, except handstands or L sits, since experiment gone wrong(with levers and planche). Pain in tendons was more common even doing easier progressions through the day. Seems that there is no real shortcut for those skills and only turtles win in the end.
You are definitely making the most useful content on RU-vid. I’m So thankful! I have a question, I’m training fore the oac I’m doing w pull-ups and oac exercises but I can’t do them in the same session cause I get to tiered after training the first element. So now I’m training my back muscles 5-6 times a week but only 5 sets a day. Do you think you get enough recovery from training this way?
My experience: Just for strengh Train every day/ 6 Times per week train every Skill every day Dont max Out Max Out for 2 or 3 time per month 80 % of maximum strenght Max 1 h of total Training 2 Up to 4 Sets for each Skill Rest min 1 h for the same skills No warm Up Just streching befor sleep Change workout Plan every month Dont do tuk or adv tuk or one leg Folowing GG Full Version of ur gool witj Rubber etc
@@paulloyzeau9599 no time and also ur body gets used to it and I ferl a lot stronger so why not. The reason why o don't get injured is probably luck, genetics and also stretching out before going to bad
Hey Dominik keep up the great work I really like it! :) When should I stretch myself? Everyday and on training days after training or before? And should i always do a full body stretch?
my experience + lot of research : do cool down stretching after a workout, and stretch before and after sleeping. or at least choose one of these times (stretching before workout reduces strenght but can be effective if you need additional flexibility) good luck
Would appreciate if you could answer the following @Dominiksky How many excersise should I do? Currently my workout is taking too long. My push workout looks like this: 5/5 Pike Push-Ups 5/30 sec pseudo planch hold 5/5 pseudo planch push ups 5/5 one arm assisted push-ups 3/8 TRX push-ups Pull workout: 5/5 30 kg pull ups 5/15 sec tuck front lever holds 5/5 tuck front lever pull ups 5/2 one arm Pull-ups 3/8 TRX horizontal grip back rows My recovery from one session to the other is good but I'm taking too much time to complete the workout due to long rest times. Any advice would be very welcome. Thanks
always wondering, never got my answer until discovered ur video, i will train smarter from now thank u but y u split press from hand stand, both of them is pressing?
It depends on you. What type of training you are doing. I train calisthenics for almost 1.5 years now. When I started i did 45 minutes and I was done and exhausted af. Am at 2 hours currently. (Mostly because of more strength training which takes a lot of rest in between sets. If you feel like you did enough after 45 mins you are fine.
I have a question: I Want to achieve Planche,Iron Cross, Frontlever and Oac. If i Train planche and ironcross twice a week and Frontlever and Oac twice a week, do you think 11sets for each skill is enough?
I have been looking for a good training schedule for years...and this video really helps me a lot. It's so true that without a good rest you won't actually gain progress and strength but keep your body in a tired condition. Thank you Dominik for sharing your experience in details!
Whats your opinion on mixing calisthenics and regular weights training? I do a push/pull/leg split 3 days with weights, 3 days with calisthenincs and 1 total rest day.
Hello Dominic! My routine it's fine? Monday: shoulder Tuesday: front lever Wednesday: shoulder Thursday: legs Friday: biceps and back Saturday: abs, chest and triceps Sunday: legs I hopefully your answer Thanks :D
I was just explaining that in the video bro! =D Mon - one arm chinup, Tue - handstand pushups, Wen - handstand, Thu - front lever, Fri - planche, Sat - handstand and repeat to infinity!!!!
How do we do both weighted calisthenics and skills. I want my weighted dips and pull ups to get really strong but i feel like it affects my ability to do the skills. Like if i do weighted dips my HSPU strength goes way down even if i do them with 2 days rest in between. Am i going too heavy on the dips to do both and would my volume be too high for recovery because i do 3-4 exercises for 3-4 sets each in a push and pull workout?
Sir please help me out. I trained push ups and pull ups more but by putting all my weight on my right hand.Due to which my right shoulder has more width than my left.Please tell me what to do to fix this.
IS IT DETRIMENTAL TO MY TRAINING IF SOMETIMES I NEED UP TO 3 DAYS REST TO BE ABLE TO DO THE SAME LEVEL ? AND IF SO SHOULD I THEN REDUCE THE INTENSITY TO INCREASE FREQUENCY BECAUSE TO ME IT REALLY FEELS GOOD TO DO THAT HEAVY PULLING SESSIONS?
Is anyone having trouble with the Sky Calisthenics page? Since sunday i can't watch any of the videos because it says they have been deleted. I wrote on monday to the support team but no response yet. Edit: Today i received an email from support and seems to be fixed :D
handstand is isometric. now handstand pushups are pressing. although it may sore your muscles, the focus here by the means he says, is about balance not strength in this day.
How to make best progress with weighted pull-ups? I couldn't add weight for past 3 months. I've tried lowering volume, increasing volume, lowering intensity, increasing intensity and I still can not lift more than +30kg x 6.
Have you tried pulling up - staying at the top for 8sec+ and then going back down halfway waiting 8sec+? This is one rep. This should help you to do more pull ups - but your rep/set will be lower for a bit
