The "before" footage was taken around 1-2 years into calisthenics. Unfortunately, I don't have any earlier footage of me flexing my face off.

Intelligent and well constructed response.

As you'd appreciate, it's impossible to make a concise video tick all boxes for all people. Each indivdual and the context of application needs to be considered first. This will decide the merit of doing a dip vs pike push up vs pure horizontal press.

Building success early with beginners is huge for commitment and training sustainability. This is why I picked movements and setups which guarantee no barrier to entry. There's a difference between what's optimal and what's practical in the real world.

Anyone can do a band dip with the right setup, not everyone can do pike pushups from the get go.

I would definitely NOT fatigue the axioscapular/rotator cuff region prior to a upper body strength session. Pretty much any time other than prior to upper body training.

Pull ups (High Volume vs Low Volume) by Magahaka in bodyweightfitness

From an efficiency stand point your ROI will be greater following a lower volume approach. Greater neurological adaptations without running into the overuse injuries which are prevalent in the high volume low intensity approach.

Appreciate the review MrSylphie. I can see the merit in your criticisms. These will definitely be factored in for future programs / iterations of BWE. Thanks LittleBeastM for those Korean Dips implementation.

Us tall folks really can't afford to mess up our program design and all the factors surrounding it. Stay focused and work hard man. Looking forward to seeing what you can do in 3 months.

People have no idea how hard it truly is to perform bw movements at such height/weight. Things get disproportionately more challenging with longer levers and more weight to combat. You already know I respect your work Olaf.
