bodyweight

Okay, so I love the Quick and the Dead training! I’ve been doing it almost exclusively during quarantine, and all this jazz with the virus. Now, I’m supposed to travel soon and I want to continue my training but don’t have the ability to take my kettlebell. What are some alternatives to the...

Hi everyone, Simple question is a circuit workout antiglycolytic if the heart rate stays below MAF without following A+A protocole? For example: 4 rounds of Bw squat Pushup Pullup Situp The idea is to wait the heart rate goes below 110 before beginning the following exercise. It takes in...

Hello all, First post here. I just tested the number of body-weighted dips that I can do in a single set, and I am able to do 13. I have been doing BW dips every other day using the GTG methodology (10 sets of 5 reps, done throughout the day). From the information I've gathered (being able to...

Hi I'm Sam. Been using Mark Lauren's You Are Your Own Gym on and off for 6 years. Absolutely love the program. Recently been watching some of Dr Jim Stoppani's work on youtube. He has convinced me, and I had heard previously, that lowering volume, but working out DAILY in full body format may...

Hi everyone, What do you think about mixing those principles of training: -Everyday GTG on multiple exercises Push-ups, dips, pull-ups, crunches, bw squats (pistols). The idea isn't to focus on one exercice, but to be active all the day by doing many easy sets of different exercises (far...

Hi! I have several of Pavels books and never tried the workouts until now. I am at homeas everyone is right now and want to take my training to the next level. I want to discuss structure of my home plan. I only havebody weight available. I have looked at naked warrior and understand the...

Hello BW enthusiasts and coaches- I will be teaching my 3hr Simple Strength workshop on Feb 9th in San Clemente CA and after reading several post earlier thought I would go ahead and add the registration link here: Link for the workshop Pacific Strength I originally designed this workshop for a...

Hey All, I was curious what you all thought about using the SM for OAPU practice. In NW Pavel discusses the importance of corkscrewing your hand to create tension, however, “breaking the bar” would also provide irradiation. I ask because the SM is easy to set up at different heights as I’m a...

Hello, I would like to hear some feedback on my own kettlebell routine. Also, do tell if you recognize other similar principles or programs in it. I'd really appreciate it. The goal of the routine is to be something that is independent of the equipment (though of course, I prefer the KBs)...

I’ve been keeping an eye out but no joy as yet for 2020. Any plans @Karen Smith, @Steve Freides or @Pavel Macek?

I read an article that said 'a PT from trainstrong PT could barely flip a 350kg tyre. after doing 3 months of serious TGU work with a 48kg kettlebell, he was able to flip it over easily' I cant get a kettlebell, Would a One Arm Handstand provide the same stabiliser strength as the TGU??? If...

Hi everybody, Im writing this because I just tested my pullup max, and its the same as 2 1/2 months ago, 15. Im 19 years old, 190cm (6′ 2.8″), and 73kg(161 lbs). My current program, which I have been doing since I last tested my max (2 1/2 months ago), consistently except for 2 weeks at the...

My buddy and I constantly try to find ways to motivate ourselves when doing super hard sets. When we workout alone we often lack the stimulus to push to the max when our bodies telling us to stop. Then we did the crazy thing to work out together through Skype by sharing the workout video and...

Never thought about dropping this off here before. Stallbars.pdf

I've been doing pistol squat weightened, pull up weightened and one arm push up 6x a week using the gtg method. Every time I hit 10 reps (after doing half of the max every day, 4 to 5 series of 1 to 5 reps) I increase the weight, as Pavel teach in the gtg. I can make easy 5x5, with 2 min rest...

Hi all So how do you figure out % with weighted bodyweight? for example 1rm for me is bodyweight +28kg (113kg) would 85% be (113kg x 85%)=96kg OR is it better to go from the added weight? 28kg x 85%=24kg lastly is using % of 1rm for bodyweight a flawed though and I should instead figure out...

Hi all, this is my first post and I hope I put it in the right place. First off, I am a soldier and am required to pass a fitness test of high rep push ups and sit ups. I am using Grease the groove to up my number of reps for this event. I had read that GtG only works for 2-3 weeks until...

Greetings, I recently started doing training after a few years of couch potato life and am quite interested of how to incorporate GTG into training. I did a bit over three months of bodyweight training up to this point with five sessions per week (Mon Lower Body, Tue Upper Body + Core, Wed Yoga...

Hope you folks can give me some ideas. If this is an area you know something about, I would appreciate you taking the time to read this. I am looking to cut about 10lb of muscle, appreciate that at my age or any age that seems a bit daft. But I have running goals that I cannot achieve at my...
