Yeah. I feel like if you can do a toe to bar, you should be able to do this. It's just holding your core straight and not an actual strength exercise.
I can do a tucked on the rings but I’ve never actually tried on a straight bar because we don’t have any that are low to the ground and it feels a little iffy do invert myself that high above the ground
Pussy, you're holding the bar with your hands. Are you going to let go?
Have you tried any calisthenics skill excercises before? Your 500 pound deadlift is completely useless.
People who only lift weights tend to think they know everything about fitness and when they try something like calisthenics or other exercise that requires actual athleticism they come face to face with the reality that their bodies are incredibly incapable.
What is a >calisthenics skill excercises
Like a pistol squat? Could do that the first time I tried, not even lifting. A handstand? Same thing.
None of it is particularly hard until you get into outrageous circus trick bullshit and none of that is very useful.
A 500 lb deadlift is infinitely more useful and difficult.
>a 500lbs deadlift is infinitely more useful and difficult
Black person any moron off the street can get fat and deadlift 500 lbs. Powerlifting is a fricking joke
Yea bro so useful yet you powershitters can’t even do a pull-up or run a mile

You would have to be pretty stupid to believe this
What you do is easy. Every powerlifter under 400 lbs can do a pullup. Most untrained guys off the street can do a pullup.
But it will take years of effort for you to get to a 500 deadlift.

Have big muscles from lifting heavy: women impressed 100% of the time
Be able to do gay circus tricks: impress women once or twice
I did 455 deadlift at age 18 weighing like maybe 170lbs. It’s not hard. All calisthenics guys can put up good numbers in the gym but most powerlifting guys can’t do basic calisthenics movements.
Calling bullshit >All calisthenics guys can put up good numbers in the gym
I did calisthenics for a year which then translated to extremely mediocre lift numbers
For instance I could do 17 chinups and then deadlifted idk 225 for a few reps
Moving your body is not enough stress to translate to moving heavy weights

This, along with saying you can't walk up stairs or run a mile, is stupidity and cope of an extreme degree.
Why do calisthenicgays think you have to be a fat ultraheavyweight to lift heavy? I know a guy that is my country's powerlifting champ in our weight division (over 4pl8 on bench), he lifts 500+ lbs on deadlifts and is shredded as hell, absolute monster of a guy. And he can do calisthenucs shit too. You think people have to look like anemic stucks to do calisthenics exercises? You can both LOOK GOOD and BE STRONG. Just put in some more effort. Instead of saying "heh yeah the exercises i'm good at are THE BEST, and the ones.i' bad at are SHIT", why not try to get good at both? Don't cope
It's so pathetic. They justify their weakness by saying that everyone who is strong is some 400 lb equipped squat specialist.

Explain what's so hard about the front lever. You literally just hold the bar and lift your legs horizontally. It's like a hanging leg raise but a tad bit harder. If I had a straight bar at my gym, I could go there today and probably get a 5 second hold without even trying
It's a lever with big disadvantage. The more your lower half of the body weights/the longer it, the harder it is.
You are very delusional and ignorant.

Literally me. I could do a front level when I was 85kg~ though
You are crying about people shitting on the front lever when they can't do it but you shit on a 500lbs as if you could do it, you also can't do front levers either.
I can do toes-to-bar for sets of 12 with no momentum but cannot do a front lever. Working up to it with tucked variations that I can hold for like 20-30 seconds right now. It's not too far out of reach but it's definitely harder. I think you're also underestimating how much shoulder, chest, and lat involvement there is. Isometrics are strenuous even if you're already strong.
Doing one (1) pull up is too much to ask most of this board. But at least they can deadlift 500 pounds and can’t see their dick cus their fat ass gut is in the way.
Pretty sure the prerequisite for this is like 20% bw weighted pullup for 5 reps. And that's not including the level of core strength required. Not to mention this is just a skill exercise that's provides no use if you aren't into calisthenics. And before you ask, no I can't do one. I'm not claiming it's easy, it just has no real usefulness
Honestly, you guys have made up some strawman to cope with IST telling your b***h ass off. I'm pretty sure 99% of fit can do at least one pull-up, and before you say "you'd be surprised": think "how do you know that, dum dum? Why do you think you know that?"
Y'all just coping.
>calisthenics guy form checking
I do pull ups as a warm up.
I do handstands as a warm up.
One of my goals is to do handstand push-ups actually.
You're just being a nitpicky little b***h.
The bar can overload in nice, easy to track increments of 5-10 lbs.
This makes progression nice and easy to figure out.
I don’t see the problem. Im trying my hardest like everyone else. If it takes me several weeks to gain the muscle mass to do at least 1 proper knee push up then that’s how it’s going to be. You shouldn’t make fun of people for trying.
You’re not the intended audience. I’m shitting on people who have been “working out” (read: getting fat and doing like 5 static excercises every day) for several years but can’t do basic athletic movements. Keep grinding and you’ll get the pull-up soon.
I can do a tucked on the rings but I’ve never actually tried on a straight bar because we don’t have any that are low to the ground and it feels a little iffy do invert myself that high above the ground
there is nothing I respect more than when someone who cant afford going to the gym still does that they can, like calisthenics.
What I cannot respect, is rich people shilling it, and even selling expensive shit when the only actual benefit is that it is cheaper.
Gym gays will never know how it feels to be able to do neat tricks like that and have women gasp at that impressive feat of strength
Actually gym gays can barely wipe their ass properly kek
Kek this reminds me of my rock climbing turboshredded brother doing that “flagpole” hoist on stop signs to impress girls when we were in high school.
It never failed to elicit some oohs and ahs and giggles.
Women are definitely more impressed by that than any dumb gym monkey shit we can do.
Even the ones that also lift/ understand your bragging about your lifts.
I can do the tucked thing, I'm working on it frfr, I guess it depends from the weaknesses that you have, the graduation from beginner to intermediate and beyond is realizing what they are and structuring your routine around them >most of this board can’t do a pull-up
Very funny actually, if you can do 10 strict pullups you mog almost every ((man)) you see around, calisthenicsbros I call this a win
the truth that sharting strength enjoyers don't want to hear is that the only reason a barbell makes high loads feel so comfy is that you take most of the small stabilisation muscles out of the equation. That's great if you want to make your big muscles bigger but useless for stuff like valistjenics because you're bottlenecked at best and go to snap city at worst. On the other hand calisthenicsgays don't get big but you can throw them off a cliff and they will walk away from it.
Why do calisthenicgays think you have to be a fat ultraheavyweight to lift heavy? I know a guy that is my country's powerlifting champ in our weight division (over 4pl8 on bench), he lifts 500+ lbs on deadlifts and is shredded as hell, absolute monster of a guy.

If you do steroids all your lifts are invalidated. The reason why we say all powershitters are fat is because all natty powerlifters are fat.
No roids, ive known him a looong time. Perfect skin, he is just a freak. Some men are gifted at these things. I repeat, you are COPING by saying "heh well you have to be a fat ultraheavyweight to lift more than 3pl8 on deadlift", you are just exposing yourself as weak. I do both calisthenics and heavy compounds because i realise both have benefits. Make more of an effort.
Sure he doesn't roid. If he's even real, since you didn't post a picture. Youre also incapable of doing the front lever. So don't say you do Calisthenics. Pull ups and dips is the absolute bare minimum. Come back when you can actually do something that takes skill
I'm not the one here refuting century-old training methodology as "useless" without being experienced in it. If you were a regional champ with a 550 deadlift and you camd here and said "yeah compund exercises and muscles are USELESS", i'd listen to you. But you're just jo schmo telling me to stop exercising and getting indignant over me saying "hey pal maybe both calisthenics and compounds have their merits". Get lost.

> different training methods produce different results
Very good point. For example powerlifting produces results such as fatassery and being disabled by 35
Today while doing dips I tried to straighten my legs to see if I could get one of those cool positions. As soon as I hit too steep of an angle my muscles instantly gave up and I fell down. Didn't really hurt but it was shocking. Don't understand it.
I used to have a lot of respect for calisthenics but I began to notice that it's just "look what I can do" attention whoring. Bodybuilders get all the hate for narcissism but calisthenics gays have an entire other level it.
