Do You Combine Different type of workouts?🤸‍♂️💪

Okay so in calisthneics i like to split up the strenght in 2 categories...

1. The Lightweight Tendon Strong... (This is the type who is very light weight and like a runner the muscles are small but super efficient letting you defy gravity like an alien...)

2.The Muscle Strong (This is usually for most people and the concept is that you wil rely on getting bigger muscles for higher output to defy gravity and be able to do the skills.)

I am a nr 2 and how i liked to approcah this is with a mixture of weightlifting/bodybuilding (for the muscle size, then skills and weighted calisthenics for the strength... Weighted calisthenics can also help with size.

Many people are at the beginning stage and think "i thought calisthenics was only bodyweight..." I also thought this at first and you can become really strong with only bodyweight and in great shape...

The thing is when you start being able to do a lot of reps you will not get to stimulate the muscles enough with load to make them grow... this is why you start adding weight so you can do less reps but you will become stronger and bigger"

I know some people are a bit against using weights for calisthenics so i'm curious to what you are using at the moment... I'm using a bit of everything😅🤝

Only Bodyweight🤸‍♂️

I add weighted into my calisthenics ⚖️

I use combination of many different types of workout.💪
