Bodyweight Any effective calisthenics program?

[Diego693]

practice calisthenics, I go at an intermediate level, I am entering the world of handstand and levers, strength training is very similar to intermuscular coordination trainning, any suggestions? Should I follow a plan like wave cycling or something similar? most of the movements are intense, some even require keeping the time under tension and the tendons must be strong, but everything centered on push and pull, vertical and horizontal

Have you tried the Reddit Bodyweight Recommended Routine?

Overcoming Gravity, Red Delta Project, the old stuff from Gold Medal Bodies...

Lab Coat Fitness have probably the best, most scientifically sound training for gymnastics moves at the moment. Take a look at what their athletes can do, some at a crazy high weight / height for those moves. They usually recommend blocks of strength (barbells and weighted BW movements, skills on maintenance) alternated with blocks of skill training with maintenance of key lifts.

Danny & Al Kavadlo Get strong. Pretty simple program. Basically from zero to hero..

As per @Sauli’s recommendation. Anything by Danny and Al Kavadlo is well worth your time looking into.

Lots of great bodyweight articles here as well, particularly by @AleksSalkin and @Karen Smith.

Have you considered our SFB certification for learning Bodyweight skills/progressions, assessments and programming?
