How To Mix Calisthenics & Weights 

Not really, I think he is in the end road of calisthenics. So he need to go hybrid

​@@ksk622there is no end road of calisthenics, its just that calisthenics kinda lack isolation for some muscle so weights compensate for that

​@@derpykylekaka not only isolation... weightlifting permit easier progressive overload (some calisthenics guy train military press ... )

you should know hoot train If you start your weight lifting day by bench press 3*5 than just do Handstand 3*5 weighted push ups weighted dips It's more challenging when you do some BW stuff with more weight because you challenge more you chest shoulders triceps forearms legs. and abs to be more engaged and being in harmonie except some moves need isolation like lateral raises cable low to high incline dumbell press this for isolation exercice that cantle done in calisthenics one minute please aren't the hardest moves in leg day based on calisthenics like: squat is harder than hack squat Bulgarian split squat bent over calf raises you can added step ups sissy squat .....

Everyone should

You're right. I tried just doing handstand push-ups for my shoulders for a couple weeks and lost size in my side delts. Side and bent over laterals are essential exercises for shoulders.

You can just do Gymnastic ring Y-raise to isolate your side delts. Also handstand push ups work your side delts indirectly.

@@58jharristhey arent essential at all, can easily be replaced for cable Y-raises, Cable upright rows etc. also you we’re probably doing the handstand push ups for a narrow grip, if you do them will a wide grip back to wall in a deficit your side delts will be more active.

sth like: pistol squat, deadlift, barbell squat on smith machine, sissy squat and calf raises i think

@@ktse2721 i would suggest smith machine because the stabilizer muscles have already been exhausted with the pistol squats. The smith machine squat would be a good follow up exercise imo

@@vietducle398 I would add Nordic curls and tibiablis raises for full completeness, and pistol squats with weights are a home workout banger

I start with hamstring curls, then front squats, pistol squats (or barbell lunge if I feel like it) and then finish with one set sissy squats. I do romaninan deadlifts on my pull day, so my leg day is mainly quads.

I did goblet cossack squats, pistol squats and deadlifts. Last week.

I agree, We can get away from dogmas and labels

ok but i mean obviously think about why you would right? obviously weights should offer something calisthenics doesn't. like overloading the shoulders and legs. in fact that's pretty much it, so it really isn't that hard LMFAO

Decline pushups work the upper chest And pike pushups work it too but the shoulders more

Agreed, overkill on the shoulders such small muscles compared to the chest I guess this is just a speciality workout emphasizing on delts more so than anything.

I personally Do : Incline smith machine press One arm Dumbell press Weighted dips triceps extension Side raises

The idea that dips should be considered as a vertical pushing movement is not really accurate. When we speak of "vertical pushing patterns", it mostly implies overhead pressing movement since becoming stronger in that pattern asks for specificity. In 99 % cases, you're leaving nothing on the table by replacing push-ups with some good old dips because of the excellent transferability between those movement, similar pressing patterns being the main reason. We can't say the same when it comes to dips and pike push-ups. That's why saying that dips are a vertical pressing movement is misleading and not really accurate. It's even more obvious when you compare the position of the torso relative to the floor at the bottom of a dip and a push-up.

you are right, in vertical pushing dips compared to HSPU are really different, but doing only dips leads to underdeveloped upper chest, and neglecting clavicular is a big L for me. Thats why i emphasized not having a horizontal push in it. @@lanc3l0t-yk48

thats nice, keep it up G. IDK about one arm dumbbell press, i prefer simple bench press, but I guess you are doing it for a reason @@eikichionizuka2206

⁠@@lanc3l0t-yk48my understanding was that the more you lean forward, the more you preferentially recruit the chest, whereas if you keep the torso vertical it targets the triceps more. However, a lot of people will say the only safe way to perform dips is with some amount of lean, as keeping straight can compromise the shoulders. I disagree, I think it’s just something that has to be worked up to and progressed more carefully. So, if you agree that keeping the torso vertical, ‘tricep dips’, is a viable variation of parallel dips, then I would say they’re definitely much more of a vertical pressing movement Edit: I know ‘comprimise the shoulder’ is a vague term. I don’t remember the exact reasoning, but it’s something like the angle of the shoulder joint relative to the torso is unnatural/extreme at the bottom of the dip if the torso is kept vertical

ive been doing the same,wanna analyse our routines?

@@yakeru5001 sure if you can share it

@@siegfriedyvojcic8294 can u drop ur social media?

Can I get someone’s routine please I’ve really been struggling with creating one

No way around legs if you want them to grow. Then for weighted calisthenics having the tools in the gym is much more convenient. Not every calisthenics practitioners do Prisoner style workout. I can speak on this because i practically do weighted calisthenics with the upper body and weights with legs. Hopefully in the future hybrid And oh not everyone wants the skills as goals some just do the foundation calisthenics exercise cause i prefer and enjoy them but still approach my training with hypertrophy in mind soil if you dont have the setup at home the gym is the next best thing

Delts are the biggest muscle group so yeah

You covered every part of your body the only thing I would add would be a row ie inverted row (best), db row or chest supported row if need be. I wouldn’t recommend bb rows as you got the posterior chain and lower back covered with deadlifts and if your lifting heavy loads on lower body lifts you can run into recovery issues for that area of the body. If you prefer to row with a barbell then I highly recommend to do strict pendlay rows instead and that should get around the recovery issues just fine, worked for me doing high frequency too a while back.

@manimal9871 Aren't deadlifts working on the same muscle rows work? Here is my Workout Routine: (If you don't mind reading) Alternate between Workout A and B. (Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday) On rest days do Workout C. (Except for Saturday - Full Rest) Workout A: (Total 15 Sets) • Handstand Balance Work • 5x5 Squats • 5x5 Weighted Pull Ups (Last set is AMRAP) • 5x5 Weighted Dips (Last set is AMRAP) • 15 Minutes Full Body Stretch Workout B: (Total 13 Sets) • Handstand Balance Work • 3x5 Deadlifts • 5x5 Overhead Press • 5x5 Weighted Chin Ups (Last set is AMRAP) • Whatever Core Routine • 15 Minutes Full Body Stretch Workout C: • 15 Minutes of Aerobic activity. (Walk, Run or Cycling) • Up to 60 Minutes of Front Splits Flexibility and Upper body Mobility. If you on the last set (AMRAP) you hit 7 reps, increase the weight by 1.25kg or 2.5kg, if you hit below 5 reps decrease the weight by 1.25kg or 2.5kg. Week 5 is deload.

​​​@@Eviatarmdeadlifts work traps (i think more upper traps tho?) in an isometricly stretch way but rows are easily better for upper back and also hits rear delts

Other than rows i would add an upper chest exercise wether its decline push ups or incline bench, its quite an important muscle that u shouldn't forgot about

@derpykylekaka Dips works equally on the lower/upper chest

He's from Australia

just keep squatting buddy. except, overload your squats with weights. easy!

Have you used shazam?

@@RDbodybuildingreardelt SHUT UP. I NEED TO KNOW THE NAME OF THE DAMN MUSIC.

You can do skills with added weight

No need to be embarrassed bro, you’re the one paying for the membership :) use the facilities as you will.

Weighted pull ups for back, bench press or weighted push ups for chest, shoulder press for front delts, etc. Just choose the exercises that target the muscle groups that you want to target, the muscle groups that are used in your skill trainings.

What I used to do is, do skill training at the beginning of your session and then the rest of your session will be your traditional training. For example when I was training up to an Advanced Tuck Planche, I would warm up like usual, do a wrist exercise at the end of my warmup, and then did sets of L-Sit to Adv Tuck Planch for reps (no hold but still moving with control), then went on with a "regular" hybrid push workout. I don't do this anymore as I now do Upper Lower and I do 2 Upper Days, 2 Lower Days and a Skill Day where I focus on the Skill I wanna progress / maintain. Works better for me honestly

If you want supersets it would be like this: planche/front lever dip/pull up push ups/australian rows tricep extension/biceps curl

Yeah true.

I'm no expert but in the absence of other commenters look into exercises that strengthen the smaller shoulder/upper back muscles (rotator cuff), I think it's fairly common so there should be lots of info

@@robertsimpson2474 thanks, appreciate the advice

the progression is just taking a step forward from the normal pushup position, then settling for a position that challenges you but is not too hard

I tried an easier modification last workout that really let me get more reps in and felt great. You simply bend your knees more and do everything else the same, definitely recommend trying it out go easy of course as you had an injury your working through best of luck.

As if it’s all part of the magic my friend! Love you 💚😊🙏👍⚡️⚡️⚡️
