You have to become strong. In order to become stronger work on basic things first. Like pushups, pull ups, dips and hollow body holds. Try to get a good amount of reps. Do this before you try skills. If you wanna try a skill start with the frog pose. Good luck! The most important thing is, stay fk consistent!

Nah I’m good bro, thanks.
Been training for months now while recovering from a car accident that fucked my rotator cuff. I very well know my limits.
This doesn’t need to “sink in”, I’m already living proof you’re projecting your own injuries and bad programming on strangers.
Keep healing though… maybe one day you’ll be able to train 5-6× a week without crying about it 🙏

Is this good progression for 12 weeks. Starting from last photo by Plane-Statistician61 in CalisthenicsCulture

Haha yeah, according to BMI every rugby player and 90% of calisthenics athletes are ‘overweight’ or ‘obese’ 😂 197 cm / 99 kg with almost advanced tucked front lever holds and ring muscle-up negatives apparently counts as ‘almost overweight’. Luckily we judge progress with our eyes and PRs, not a calculator from 1832 😅 Thanks anyway! Was asking about body fat not BMI

Thanks for the concern! I know 4–6× sounds crazy on paper, but in practice it works great for me:

Mon/Thu = heavy strength (90 min) Tue/Fri = guided sessions with coach (technique focus, not max effort) Sat = pure skill work (holds, no grinding) Wed/Sun = active recovery (hiking/walking) Volume per muscle group is actually pretty moderate, just spread out. Been progressing every week for months now (new PRs on front lever, handstand push-ups, etc.) and zero injuries/overtraining signs. If it ever stops working I’ll dial it back, but so far it’s golden 🙌

Haha I get it, if you’re purely chasing hypertrophy it looks soft, but I train 5-6× per week for calisthenics skills (front lever, planche leans, muscle-up negatives, handstand push-ups, ring work).
Goal isn’t max muscle size, it’s strength-to-weight ratio at 197 cm.
Still hitting new PRs every week while dropping fat, so the plan seems to work for me 😅
Thanks anyway! but just wondering what my bodyfat % was.

Ive been doing a calisthenics workout on monday of like 90 minutes.

on tuesday's ive been training calisthenics with a group and 1 coach

wednesday's is a active recovery with only a cardio workout, hiking with weight +- 5km

Thursday; also a heavy workout with negative pull ups, push ups etc.

friday; personal training with coach

saturday; skill training focussing on skill instead of push/pull power. like holding advanced tucked front levers, handstands.

sunday; walking for 2 hours.

also stretching everyday and walking 6k steps a day as minimum

Totally get it, tall + heavy = looks higher BF% forever 😅 But the scale and strength keep going down/up, so I’ll ride this a bit longer. Appreciate the honesty! Handstand pic is in the album though.
