“If you’re feeling too lazy to do calisthenics today , just go lift weights since it’s not as much work”-personal trainer

[jaydawg08]

If you've ever used kettlebells you understand how much of a different workout it is. You feeling it in muscles you're not used to moving on a consistent basis.

I gym 4-5 times a week for basically 15 years.. and varying up your training regime is some of the best things you can do to keep motivated and not bored. Kettlebells are a great way to change up the routine

I'm starting to think that it's all part of the Calisthenics YouTube hustle lol


A lot calisthenics YouTubers be lifting on the side but getting on camera telling dudes they can get 3D delts from upside down push ups

They definetly do both. You won't get brolic doing bodyweight exercises for 30 minutes.

I think the current kettlebell trend is a fad that got a major push from Joe Rogan after he started preaching the "kettlebells = functional strength" thing.

this is up there with my theory that I think he helped Trump win by bashing Hillary in front of millions. A bunch of little shyt like that added up to boost that a$$hole.

Breh I'm talking about constantly trying to increase your max in the compound lifts. shyt gets boring fast and takes too long between sets (up to 6-7 minutes if you're going for a PR). Not to mention taxing on your CNS. I always end up switching to a hypertrophy based program after like 16 weeks max

I know exactly what you meant, hence me posting the gif.


If you're not tryna be the Hulk and lift the whole fukking gym, just say that. If you're weak, just say that. If your recovery sucks and you're not Wolverine, just say that.

Don't make it seem like strength-based programs aren't sustainable long-term, they are, they just don't fit what you're tryna do or are too much for you.

Half these weight lifting bench pressing ppl can’t even run a mile straight or do 10 minutes on the row machine

Still stronger than the average person. And more useful for everyday activities than a nikka shaped like a upside down triangle

I never got this idea of if needing to be one or another I do a mixture of both and of course concentrate on my main goals for the time. Right now cardio is my only goal.
