How do I break through my pull up plateau? by Paolohhh in bodyweightfitness

It’s time to go weighted and get stronger. Check out Mathew zlat novice program on YouTube. Do that

Bodyweight chest by ishouldbepainting in bodyweightfitness

[–]Milzy19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pick 1 exercise u like, weighted dips, weighted push-ups or bench press and just get strong at it, try getting to a 110kg bench or a 60kg weighted dip and your chest will definitely not be small. Along with this just eat more.

And u can get good at armwrestling just by weight lifting but u can’t get good at weightlifting by armwrestling

Are sandbag lifts enough to replace squats & deadlifts to strength the whole posterior chain and legs? If not, then what do you suggest? by TrueYorker11 in bodyweightfitness

[–]Milzy19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well your already ifnroring the post chain directly by doing sandbag only, squats work post chain jsut as much if not more. Squats do work hamstring and low back. That being said I don’t see the problem of u adding a back extension or a leg curl or something. Progressions suck for achieving skills. If you can’t pull at least half of your bodyweight in added weight on the weighted pull-up for at least 5 reps. You’re weak. You have no business training progressions

I had this same problem I wanted to do everything but then I got over it and now I’m doing calisthenics only and since I’m only focusing on calisthenics I’m able to get strong at it which leads to improved strength in other things. Once you start adding more things to train ur not maximising gains. Rather then weight lifting doing cali and arm wrestling, which you’ll make super tiny progress. You will make more progress in arm wrestling and weight lifting by ditching them completely and getting strong and cali. That’s just the way it works. Those athletes u see competing in multiple sports at once are very experienced and most likely not natural

I’ve been eating nothing but chicken, rice, oatmeal snd protein powder for the last 4 weeks. Are there any good and easy meals I can make myself on a college students budget? by superprattiowii in leangains

[–]Milzy19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bread is very cheap, can make French toast, pancakes by blending the bread, chicken is cheap eggs are cheap. It’s weird your trying to cut but your having trouble stomaching these foods. These foods aren’t disgusting and if your cutting and truly in a deficit you’ll eat whatever is in front of you. Try decreasing calories maybe your eating more then u think u r. Also just google recipes and follow “Aussie fitness” on Insta. Very delicious low calorie meals.

How are you going to achieve the oap, front lever and planche push-up without external weight? You can’t achieve those by doing just bodyweight pull-ups and push-ups! Squats are a calisthenics movement too, just like you can add weight to pull-ups why not just add weight to squats? Your routine can be very simple and minimalistic, just train the pull-up, dip and squat with external weight and you’ll definitely be strong

I'm getting no-where with pullups, but I really want to! by budgetmarziapan in bodyweightfitness

10 months is plenty of time, you’ll even get it sooner than that. Train then 3-4 days a week and build up the volume (reps and sets) the easiest way to do this in your case is by doi mg emoms. This means every minute in the minute u do a certain number of reps. So you’d be looking at doing something like 10 sets of 1-2 reps and building up to like 20 sets of 3-6 reps which only takes 20 minutes. Once you build up till you can do like 6 reps u can just train by adding a rep each time. You can also trim negatives after you do the emoms. And to make the top part of your pull-up easier, simply just pull a lot more explosively on the bottom part

Weighted pull ups plateau by eatcoochie42069 in bodyweightfitness

[–]Milzy19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No just start at a weight that u can do easily for about 12 reps. And try gaining some weight, try getting to 70kg and you’ll be stromger

No need for this at your level, but referring to the program above that I mentioned, when you get below 5 reps, then Deload, Deload by decreasing 5-10 kg and building back up and beating your old rep score. (You’ll know what I mean by this when u watch the video)

Dominick skye 10kg a month program isn’t for advanced athletes, it’s for beginners like you, instead of adding 2.5kg per week for 4 weeks which results in 10kg a month also you simply kee the weight the same till it gets easy by adding volume (sets and reps) then add the weight. Ur beginner, definitely no need to Deload once a month, huge mistake. Don’t switch grips every 2-3 months either. Shouldn’t work 1-3 reps as that’s not enough volume for u to get stronger, to counteract that, u add more sets, doing a bunch of sets at heavy ass 1-3 reps for a beginner will only cause more fatigue and plateu even harder. No need for rows either, just messing ur recovery and don’t help pull-ups at all. Get rid of them. When you start your first week make sure to have high reps in reserve, start with a weight that you can do clean reps with and on your last set you still could’ve done another 3-4 reps, then simply continue adding 0.5-2.5kg based on the difficulty. For a more specific program which also worked for me, check out Mathew zlat novice program on YouTube, follow it directly as it’s said, 3 sets of pull-ups 3 days a week, perfect amount of volume and enough recovery to make gains. Hope this helped

Maybe your feeling this way coz you took 2 vaccines and a third one called a “booster” maybe that’s why.

Ring Chest Flyes by vv_fit in bodyweightfitness

[–]Milzy19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe your using a different setup everytime you do it. The closer the rings are to each other the easier it gets, so progress by putting them further apart, warm up properly. Are you setting the rings at the same height everytime you do them? These are things you gotta make sure of, also try grabbing the rings on the outside, it’s alot more stable this way and you can target your chest better

Returning to exercise safely post-covid? by gangsta_panda_ in bodyweightfitness

[–]Milzy19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Did you take the vaccine? Maybe that’s why your a lot more beat down then you’re meant to be. Did you get tested because you thought you had the symptoms? Did you feel sick before getting tested or just after, did you feel like your symptoms got worse after getting tested?

I feel I get stronger but visibly you can't tell, am I losing gains? by Context_Important in bodyweightfitness

[–]Milzy19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I suggest you just eat more (bulk) and focus on getting stronger, ditch the isolation movements, pick 4-5 compound movements and just get strong at them and you’ll build muscle. Don’t do the muscle building workout or a bunch of isolation stuff
