Told OP ditch bodyweight calisthenics and do weighted calisthenics..... = disrespectful.

That logic duh

If one person thinks you are disrespectful, maybe not. But from the way you're getting slammed, ridiculed and criticized about your online behavior not just here but other threads, there is a strong element of truth in these gentlemen's posts.

You've adopted an elitist attitude. Comic books say that with great power comes great responsibility.

With great strength should come great humility.

Maybe you don't have humility because there is nothing to say about your strength and your physique?

Just sayin'.

Progressive overload is the basic of all muscle growth. You need add weight/make a exercise harder to continue to grow. The rep range must be kept below ~15 reps/set for optimum muscle growth (around 8~12 is sweet spot).

This is why you cannot keep doing more and more push-ups to get a bigger and bigger chest. This is why you cannot keep curling your waterbottle 1000x and get big biceps.
This is why people do barbell squats instead of doing 9999 reps of body-weigh squats. This why people bench press instead of doing 9999 pushups.
This is why weighs and gyms exist.

Not every sport is focused on building mass. Getting "in shape" doesn't mean building slabs of muscle to some trainees. Respect that.
Do you realize how disliked you are around here? I've been lurking and observing people's reaction and attitude towards you and your posts.

It's sad to see. The fact that you "may" have posted useful info in the past has been overshadowed by your mounting arrogance and elitist attitude which is alienating people towards you.

You came in with this:-

Calisthenics is a big waste of time. Go gym can get same result 10x faster with simple progressive overload.

Honestly you guys if don't wanna go gym, just buy a pull-ups/dip station, dipping belt, and 60kg worth of weights.

Do weighted pull-ups and dips for 3 years and you'll be jacked as fuck.

Fck all this bodyweight calisthenics crap.

You're just rude. Period.

Greetings to all.
I started doing bodyweight exercises/calisthenics around 2 months ago after i noticed my calf muscle became bigger due to running while my body is little bit skinny.

My current limits
10  pull ups
10 chin ups
25 push ups
8 dips.
10 legs raise
After that i start running around 3 or 6 km depend on my free times and redo all the exercises again after finishing the run. 2 or 3 times perweeks.
Sometimes at home practising how to do handstand without wall.
Learned from youtube channel thefotress but still far from what he suggest ( 25 pullups, 25 leg raises,70 pushups etc).

Rome wasn't built in a day. Time, consistency, genetics, food = growth and improvement.
You're doing fine.

Thanks,
For now I try my best to be consistent. I managed to lost my weight only by running without change my diet.
Actually during my teens and early twenty I was active as rugby player for school and college. Joined cadet and wataniah and never skip the training
Become lazy and heavy smoker after start working . I want to regain my long lost endurance and stamina.
Now already past 30, I can feel that my body not as good as before. recovery also become slow.

Yea, the aging process starts after 25 dude. Shit happens to your body then you'll see that those "young" looking people who abused their bodies with excessive alcohol and junk start looking horrible after 30.

But it's never too late. Never.

This! so true. I'm in my 30s but how is it I am much much fitter than the average 22 year old female. I have about 8-10 years on them man. No one believes me when I tel them my age.

However I do realise it's probably coz I didn't abuse my body lah. Always ate right, walked wherever. Now more workouts, so I'm the fittest I have ever been (also no more twig arms  rclxms.gif )
