Why doesn't everyone just weighted calisthenicsmax?
There's a guy in my gym that does weighted dips/pull ups and everyone is always paying attention to whatever he does, both chicks and guys, he is not even that big or lean btw and he doesn't even put alot of weight on his belt
powerfats? Why are you so weak?
*one arm overhead presses you for 50 reps*
>Kipping pullups
>Not even getting chin above the bar
What is he even trying to work out here?
>"Hey Thor, you're the strongest deadlifter in the world and have several World's Strongest Man titles, wanna do some pullups for the lols?"
>"Lol okay"
My guess is he's just doing them for fun, or plain curiosity. Not a serious workout
What the fuck who even talks like that
>"Hey anonnette, you work in a chain coffee shop that is established in 1971 making hot and cold flavored beverages for customers satisfaction! You earn minimal wages. Can you get me a cup of coffee?"
>"lol okay"
>Worlds strongest man
>Can't even do one pull-up
I'm stronger than him kek
You wouldn't even be able to get off the toilet if you weighed as much as him. Sit down, shut up and be humble cuz your scrawny dyel ass ain't shit
Post 480kg deadlift
>world's strongest man
That's still impressive. He's moving 200kg over a longer distance than a manlets whole body.
both roid but to different ends
pretty good honestly considering that mass. I can usually hit 20 pullups at 195 but when I get up to 205 at similar bodyfat, that number drops in half
No one cares how much you weight you can do on pull ups or dips. Majority of people care what you can squat, bench and deadlift. Simple as.
Imagine being this delusional lol.
A guy with "some" muscle mass and visible abs doing like 10 pullups will be leagues more impressive than a 20%+ bodyfat fatso doing 4pl8 DLs.
Pit had to have a body double for his legs because they were so skinny. They thought no one would believe Achilles would have such skinny legs and had to have a double for all leg shots.
This. The only people who want to fuck powerlifters are deranged varbies and twinks
just do both moron, every athletic endeavor benefits from strong legs & posterior chain as much as being able to do pull ups and shit. Most actual powerlifters do dips and pull ups and are built pretty normal. Its not a pick one thing lmao. Also training for circus tricks like levers/plances is gay
how is doing fun and cool stuff gay? are you one of those 'no fun allowed' gays? the gym is srs bsns
if youre main reason to lift is trying to impress people then its gay and this is the main illness to calisthenics fags. Note how much you've mentioned impressing people ITT man its sad. Its not even true lmao I do weighted pulls +30kg x5 and deadlifts 190kgx5 and get about equal attention from both lmao
this (well the previous one) is my first post in this thread.
I lift in a bubble of homegym or mental space.
I do the lifts I enjoy.
Currently that doesn't involve dips or pull-ups, but at the end of this cut I might try them again.
Or when I get stronger.
I find it's more about what is farther out of reach. a 4pl8te bench is incredibly impressive... unless you have a 3pl8te bench.
Same with pull ups.
Brian Shaw could literally kill Brad Pitt with his bear hands
left is the bottom right is the top
you sex havers are insane subhumans
No one ever talks about Eric banas physique in this movie, more muscular and very lean
the duality of man
Most of them are 40% BF and can only do 3pl8 DLs.
When you do pullups with a pl8 or more, heads start turning.
>I lift for myself
>Majority of people care what you can squat, bench and deadlift.
Buy a set of calisthenics rings and a pull up bar and and adjustable dumbbell
Cheapest, best value home gym ever
you forgot the part where you stay dyel forever
literally NO ONE fucking cares about that except other tryhards and theyre usually all tubby guys. so if thats your demographic then more power to you i guess.
its funny because the opposite is true
Olympic lifts impress the normies in my office gym.
The bigger(not fat) women challenge me to lift them above my head.
>Majority of fags care what you can squat, bench and deadlift.
FTFY
There's a hot fit chick in my office that everyone tries to ask out. She was sick of it, so she said if you can't do more pull ups than her don't bother. Then she did 15 pull ups in the office gym. She never got bothered again except by new hires.
I couldn't care less about impressing others. I'm seeking the perfect Final Form of legend. Nothing more. Nothing less.
the truth got so many people butthurt, everyone looks at how much they're being mogged by the other guys next to them, i was mogged by this guy doing way more pl8s than me. People only get annoyed the deadlifters and leg machine guys take all the pl8s and being loud
the real redpill is nobody cares about either its all about how u look
No one cares how much you can lift. Majority cares about what you look like.
No one but powershitters and dyel IST autists care about squats and deads
Bench maybe but even then being able to rep out a lot of pull ups will always be more impressive to pretty much anyone
>Bench maybe but even then being able to rep out a lot of pull ups will always be more impressive to pretty much anyone
Lol no it wont
The only time I ever caught people staring and people coming up to me to tell me im strong was when I was doing weighted dips.
>t. can't do a pullup
0 reps
you can just do window wipers on a bar in a casual gym and wet panties
normies are completely retarded and find even basic bar work super impressive compared to you like benching 315 for reps like an absolute monster on a bench
>you can just do window wipers on a bar in a casual gym and wet panties
You're delusional. I can do them and literally no one cares
You're just too fat to be noticed (and or DYEL for that matter).
So your proclaimed panty wetting exercise that i can do without even having to train for it means im fat or dyel. Must really suck to be mogged by a fatty or a dyel
im window wiper anon, thats some other retard you arguing with, and yes the entire fucking point is that its easy but still impresses people which is free chad points
ugly annoying fag
No, the point i made was it doesn't impress people because they don't care. You also don't need to sign your posts we can already tell you're ugly.
no u trol
do easy mode bar work anons if you got bitches in your gym
peace
maybe stop going to dirty ugly power lifting gyms with a bunch of fat ugly gays and go to a casual gym with normie cardio bunnies that will think you are a fucking god for a single muscle up
I'm telling you for your own good that no one actually cares. Leave the house
>window wipers on a bar
This shit hurts my spine even when I do it on the floor. What's the trick?
you just go half way up on a pull up, stabilize there, then rotate your hips with legs extended
very easy and normal people find them impressive for some reason, normal people go absolutely bonkers for bar work
>calisthenics
>adds weights
So it’s not real cali
Because most people aren't gay so don't need to do gay shit like calisthenics
bro if you have a crush on him I suggest you go talk up to him
>I go to a gym full of retards so take my subjective experience and do similar
reeeeeeeeee lmao
i ACK-ed my pec doing weighted dips with just +5kg......
will have another go in 2 days now that it healed
Bro i was legitimately thinking of next time i go to the gym to do
Pull ups to failure
Push ups to failure
Lat pull downs
Dumbbell bench flys
Deadlifts
Curls
So you fry your lats before your deadlifts?
What, you're gonna row your deadlift? Braincell.
Yes. When have lats ever been the point of failure for your deadlift?
I can't even do normal dips I have like a 2inch range of motion
Calisthenics will leave you weak (no lower body)
They're also worse for building upper body muscle
You can only conclude otherwise if you are someone who engages in magical thinking and can't get some vague notion of 'natural movement' out of your brain to think about thinks rationally.
>> Doing a bunch of compound movements with progressions and weights makes you weak
Powershitter cope
Depends on the situation really. If we talking about contact sports like football, powerlifters will push over calisthenic fags to get to the qb.
If we talking about rock climbing, powershitters will be out of breath just trying to climb 10 feet.
Its somewhat like an rpg game. Strength vs dex builds
So are just modern normal humans just not mobile enough for Dips?
The exercise never sucked, it was just us...
dips are a goat exercise. Do them to failure after straight bar triceps pushdown to failure
To me, calisthenics will only ever be that dancing thing which little girls do. Gym guys calling bodyweight exercises "calisthenics" is hilarious.
i can hear the fat coming from this post
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calisthenics_(Australia)
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calisthenics_(Australia)
>lmao we changed a word on our inbred island for no reason so now you guys are fags
I ask myself almost daily why none of the countries with nuclear capabilities haven’t nuked Australia atleast once yet
lmao I went to the physio once and told her I'd been doing calisthenics and she looked at me like I was a freak. I'd been using IST too much and forgotten it was the dancing thing.
why are fat powershitters so scared of calisthenics?
>reee everyome who isn't a skimmy 130 pound manlet is a poweshitter
why are calistheniccags like this?
Weighted calisthenics is just weight lifting bro.
Weighted calisthenics is weightlifting. Calisthenics are bodyweight you dont get to be an elitist anymore sorry. I do Weighted dips and pullups also rack pulls with weight on my lap.
my goal body isn't 130lb asian
um akchually he weighs around 170
I will respect a powerlifter over a calisthenics man when the powerlifter can pull himself up a cliff
https://youtube.com/shorts/udwMS_BOxiM?feature=share
Which is more likely he is hanging off the edge of the cliff or he is crushing manlet skulls like conan the barbarian
Idk about you but I don't live in Brazil or America
>party barbarian has to take a 5 minute rest every time he swings a sword
Sounds like you should just ask him out already, bro.
>just
same reason everyone doesn't just barbellmax? use 'em all. IMHO the weighted dip is a secret weapon that will pull your bench up. if you haven't been doing them they're good for 5-10%. maybe do sets of 8 after your bench/OHP fahves
People that only do calisthenics movements are very often light manlets who are insecure about being relatively weaker at the barbell lifts. Similar thing in reverse, people who actively avoid e.g. pullups are very often strongfat guys who are insecure about being too fat to be functional
You should do both to be a complete athlete. Even if a 110kg guy can do just 10 strict pullups that's as impressive as a 70kg guy doing 10 with +40kg weighted
I can do 15 at 110kg ^_^
How long did it take you to get to that? I'm new to the gym and decided to stay at 110kg for the time being. I started training pull ups recently, but I can only do 10 assisted with 50kg removed. I usually do negatives and deadhangs after just to burn out my forearms. How long of a way do I have to go?
>if a 110kg guy can do just 10 strict pullups that's as impressive as a 70kg guy doing 10 with +40kg weighted
you are so fucking retarded
That is true to a certain degree tho. Im a calisthenics fag at heart but I gain weight to chase lifts every now and again, muscle ups at 80kg is worlds apart from muscle ups at 70kg. I just track my calisthenics with absolute weight now
You program calisthenics training with total weight retards
Well, I was being lenient. In fact, the 110kg guy is likely taller as well so his pullups are even more impressive than those of the 70kg guy
stop posting retard lurk moar
I am a fat strongman (I competed, not just a wannabe, although I wasn't very good) and I started doing calisthenics because it's harder for me. You are 100% right, people should do what is difficult.
>You should do both to be a complete athlete.
Why? You aren't an athlete
I used to do them all the time, but I usually go too deep and fuck my scapula.
>can OHP 110 lbs for 5
>can only weighted dip with a 25 lb plate hanging from my belt for 5
Not sure if I'm sandbagging. I just know that I'm way too scared of something snapping if I go too heavy on weighted dips.
Stop being a pussy
What does OHP have to do with dips?
/thread. Use this as reference next time some twink makes this thread again thinking hes actually strong
cope
>fags looks at how much they're being mogged by the other guys next to them
FTFY
I train weighted pull ups along with squats and deads. Youre coping thinking youre actually strong just because you bought a pull up bar last month
>I train weighted pull ups along with squats and deads.
And you assume that I and other calisthenicsfags don't do the same? Stop being a fag and checking out other dudes. You're the reason why we can't have male only gyms.
Retarded take. I could ask a powerbloater to try stretches/yoga like touch his toes or touch his hands behind his back for the lols.
It's more apt to tank vs dps builds. Even though we call them powerlifters, they focus on strength, which is different from actual power.
If you can't understand the pictures on the machine, you probably shouldn't be lifting in the first place unless you can afford a trainer.
It's machine only women and fat people use. I was afraid of looking like a fool. At which weight should I start? Does it give resistance?
Ok, I watched one video and it's clear now. Sorry anon. Is it better to work up on this or is there nothing wrong with seated dips? Seated dips don't do much.
This is why the website is shit for anything other than PlL. Biggest pull up mogbeasts on the planet are in 80-90kg range with singular exceptions. Also unweighted pull ups are literal meme exercise. Its like measuring powersharting in bodyweight squats
I do but not weighted. Just maintaining what muscle i already gain.
>weighted calisthenics
Oxymoron
>he is not even that big or lean btw and he doesn't even put alot of weight on his belt
You're not really selling it that well
But I do know a couple big guys who are into it, they're on gear though
You do know that calisthenics is just pure body weight right? Its not calisthenics anymore if you added weight
>Why doesn't everyone just weighted calisthenicsmax?
Because the whole multi billion gym industry would implode?
This is why I hate going to the gym. Everyone staring at you while you’re lifting is annoying. I don’t care if you’re mirin, mind your own fucking business and you might actually make some gains.
What else does he do?
How can you improve on body weight dips? I cannot do a single one. How can I build it up? There is a machine that helps you but I don't understand it.
Weight assisted machines with the knee pads and lose body weight. If your too skinny then lift more on triceps shoulders and chest
