My pull up game is at the point where i can lift my legs in an L shape(body at 90 degree angle) and bust out 15-20 easily. On some calisthenics shyt. I do 3 count pull ups now to increase the intensity
I'm a need receipts and a video of this breh. I'm not a calisthenetics guy but I can crank out a good number of pullups. I've posted a video here before.

But 20 pull ups and an L shape? That's elite shyt. I need to see it.

I don't have the dexterity to do true l-shaped pull-ups yet but I always go hollow body. Really brings the abs in.

Recently got back into doing pull-ups on gymnastics rings :whew: feels different

What grown man (whose not grossly obese) can't do 100 pushs in 24 hours. Its really dudes outchea that weak?

Honestly, if a dude has never worked out he probably can't do that. Even if he tries to break the push ups throughout the day. The reason is his muscles will become extremely sore after the first set or two and won't be able to continue through the pain. 100 proper push ups is no easy task for a beginner.

Got me a dip belt about a month and a half ago. Been doing weighted pullups and dips now. I put 25 on the belt for pullups and 45 when doing dips.

I've incorporated a calisthenics day in my routine where I do nothing but body weight exercises. The goal was to do this once a week but I love doing dips and pull ups so much I do it twice a week. I feel like I get more of a pump on calisthenics only day than when I'm lifting weights.

You do.

That's why some people believe calisthenics>weights
