In my opinion, weight training is superior for all the pressing movements, but calisthenics is superior for all the pulling movements. I’ve tried both calisthenics and weight training. Now I only have like 6 months experience with calisthenics, and only like 4 or maybe 5 months experience in weight training, but all I know is that when I do bench press I feel way better stimulation to my chest and I got stronger, but during my 4 months of weight training I dropped pull-ups and replaced them with pull downs, and now I can barely do one pull-up.
@BabyDontHearnMeNoMore4 ай бұрын
@@BabyDontHearnMeNoMore you can barely do a pull up after not doing them because you have to specifically do pull-ups to make them better. Doing pulldowns or any back exercise is barely going to help pull-ups as much as actually practicing pull-ups themself. Edit* (and this is regardless of whether your lats grow doing pulldowns, which is why I made this comment to explain that calisthenics aren’t necessarily better for pulling exercises, it doesn’t stimulate the muscle more it just makes it easier per say to do pull-ups”

@gtrrohit5078 Жыл бұрын
See that sounds like it makes sense...But think about it. How many people can do 100 perfect form pushups at a medium tempo without stopping at all? Very few people. So people think it's easier to load up the bench and push up is just for stimuli cause their push up foundation is trash. Many people only do really fast, sloppy, half rep pushups until they feel a little bit of a burn and then conclude "eh..good warm up. Not a workout tho" of course it's not a workout. Imagine if you treated bench that way. Put on a little bit of weight..do a bunch of sloppy half reps then conclude its not a good workout. That'd be dumb (not directing this at you but anyone who think this way). If you can't at least do 50 slow controlled pushups with solid form then your pushup foundation is not good. With pushups you increase volume. With bench you increase weight. With both you can increase intensity. With pushups you have diamond, pseudo planche, decline, etc. Just these 3 variations will give you an insane pump if you actually do a pretty high volume workout and push the intensity with them. In conclusion, pushups are JUST as easy to load up, people are just ignorant and don't realize that all you gotta do is progressive overload. Use a slower tempo for more time under tension. Use different variations for increased intensity. And use more reps for more volume. And if you still don't believe it, just check out the calisthenics athletes who literally look like gymnasts and they only do bodyweight.
@SerpentineWisdom Жыл бұрын
@@SerpentineWisdom But your last paragraph sort of proved why it is harder to progressively overload the pushup. Different variations and things like that is more complex vs simply just adding 5kg to each side of the bar. I like push ups more than the BP though, just feel it way more.

@@gtrrohit5078 Its not though. It's so simple it's fool proof. Do MORE REPS than last time. Simple enough. Right? Is standard way too easy? Do diamond. You get used to that and still want a challenge? Do decline. I would actually argue it's way easier AND simpler to add reps or switch a variation than it is to take the clamp off...grab a 45...put it on...add the clamp. Adding reps, changing variations, slowing down? That's so much easier. Just get on the ground and do it. It takes a millisecond to implement these changes. So no...you're wrong. That's just something people use as an excuse to not have a solid calisthenics foundation but logically that point is invalid.
@SerpentineWisdom Жыл бұрын
@@SerpentineWisdom I mean whatever you believe in bro I'm not argue, all points are valid to someone who believes in them. I don't even go to the gym I just do calisthenics at home. I am just speaking from experience. Also you cannot just do basic...then diamond...then just decline as a way of progressively overloading. Doing too much of one variation leads to injury, you have to switch between them all. So again, the easiest way for me to overload was to do weighted push ups lol. Easier to track the progress.
@gtrrohit5078 Жыл бұрын
@@SerpentineWisdom actually when you are changing the style. Like if you are good at normal pushups you start doing diamond pushup or decline pushup. You are not increasing the intensity you are changing the muscles which are used. Like diamond pushup will be more on triceps and decline on upper chest. If you want to increase strength of the same muscle then weights are your best option. Doing more reps of a single exercise at some point increase your strength but after that it will only focus on endurance. It will be just like walking in the park. If someone does not have access to a gym or weights then definitely go for callisthenics. Even if someone is a beginner he will have a lot of gains from callisthenics. But their is a limit to it.

Push ups. In the long run, bench press creates severe deficits in real world strength. The shouder blades have to be kept retracted during bench press for optimal chest growth and rotator cuff injury prevention. But retracting the shoulder blades and performing the reps cause nerve impulse disfunction problems, in the long run people develop winged scapula. The chest and the shoulder blades lose the ability to function together. That takes years to rehabilitate, many don't have the patience to rehabilitate that much.

@Grand Rapids it's all about progressive overload and consistency with training and diet over the course of atleast 12 months. So if you can progressively overload and push to failure or near failure with push ups (and it's diffrrent variables) it will grow your chest. But it's harder to do with pushup as the rep range will get too high, to easily go to failure each workout. Chest training with weights is fairly simple. Train chest 2 times a week. Do anywhere from 9-20 sets per week (so 4-10 sets per session) for chest to 1-3 reps to failure. Warm up the chest muscles and shoudler rotator cuffs. And do 1 or 2 light warm up sets for each exercise first. Barbell bench press 3 "working" sets of 8-12 reps. Incline bench press 3 sets of 8 -12 reps Some sort of fly, either use cables or the fly machine. Dumbell flys are doable too. 3 sets of 10-15 reps. Everytime on the third set you hit the max reps, make note and add weight the next workout. For variety over the 12 months feel free to change up the routine every 4-12 weeks. By change up I mean, either go heavier and do 4-5 sets with 5 reps or lower the weight and do 3 sets but pushing to 15 reps. Or change the exercises for alternatives, like dumbell variations, or Dips. Main thing is consistency and pushing to failure Make sure you are getting atleast minimum protein and calories for growth. Good luck

I like push-ups, but I find bench press to be much more effective for building strength and size, while push-ups are better for building muscular endurance. The issue with push ups is that they get too easy, especially if you're already fit (I can do about 60 in 1 set). While doing even more reps, make them difficult again, which stops building as much size or strength as simply adding more weight to a bench press, which has basically no ceiling. Technically, you can do weighted push-ups, but those either hurt my back or are complicated to set up compared to a bench press at the gym. Even when I was a 98-pound twig in 9th grade, I could do like 50+ push-ups in 1 set, but I would barely build any muscle. Once I started lifting weights, however, I was able to put on like 60+ pounds in about 5 years.

Thank you! So many people don't do them right and bang out 100s of improper reps When I say I can only do 20 pushups they all act surprised.
@@coreyboi873 20 pushups with perfect form is not easy boy, I tryna be honest with my friends when they ask me..but they said im still weak lol, wonder how they did their pushups 😌
@@sleshhsh don't worry about them just keep doing it the right way when you get to 100 it will be that much more satisfying.

Did pushups on rings for the first time yesterday, felt like I was feeling muscles I'd never felt in my chest.
Just do a flat dumbbell bench with deep ROM u will feel the same thing if not more
That's what you will feel when you're not used to doing something.

@@sheen2694 Or just do both
@@kainickname wait bro can you dumb it down for me plz
3 months ago I couldn't even do a pushup so benching was a much easier way to start. I did 3 sets of 9 pushups the other day though so I'm getting there!
Keep working hard, man! You can do it!
DAMNNN THATS REALLY GOOD MAN! Keep it up I’m so so proud of you
Nice man. I also found doing higher rep sets of incline push ups helped me develop the joint strength and proper technique as well as building up to proper push ups. Still use them now in my warm up
sheeeesh keep it up

I love weighted push ups! but it comes down to personal preference imo
How do you perform them

Push ups of all kinds are a staple for me. Been incorporating DB bench press lately and enjoying that. The push-up can't be beat for ease of application. Thanks for this type of content
I did pushups for a month straight every single day and my body is forming amazingly. All I did was pushups and made sure to cut sugar and any fast food from my diet. My chest muscles are developed and my core is starting to form up beautifully as well. I’m so proud of my gains Kings!! Keep up the good work and let’s all get shredded together!!!
You need rest, also nervous system needs 48 hrs rest, if not sub par results
Yessir, I did pushups everyday for 5 months. If I missed a day I'd do double the amount the next day. Went from only being able to do around 14 a set to 40
@@BestEverZachthat’s too much lol need rest. Muscles grow when resting and recovering
@@BestEverZach I do pushups of 4 sets 30 each reps..I have been doing it since very long and i do other exercise as well..I can see the muscle but still aint satisfied and the only reason is i didn't cut sugar and other fast food since i keep eating them...maybe its time i should avoid them to have a much appealing upper body
@@rainingacid2908 Getting leaner makes it much easier to see how different workouts impacts your muscles. I like doing both pushups and bench press.
Seeing you two doing a collab again warms my heart. Keep up the amazing work! ❤
Do them both and look incredible
In my opinion, weight training is superior for all the pressing movements, but calisthenics is superior for all the pulling movements. I’ve tried both calisthenics and weight training. Now I only have like 6 months experience with calisthenics, and only like 4 or maybe 5 months experience in weight training, but all I know is that when I do bench press I feel way better stimulation to my chest and I got stronger, but during my 4 months of weight training I dropped pull-ups and replaced them with pull downs, and now I can barely do one pull-up.
@@BabyDontHearnMeNoMore you can barely do a pull up after not doing them because you have to specifically do pull-ups to make them better. Doing pulldowns or any back exercise is barely going to help pull-ups as much as actually practicing pull-ups themself. Edit* (and this is regardless of whether your lats grow doing pulldowns, which is why I made this comment to explain that calisthenics aren’t necessarily better for pulling exercises, it doesn’t stimulate the muscle more it just makes it easier per say to do pull-ups”
Bench press destroys my rotator cuffs. Push ups on a 4x4 block of wood with my hands rotated are good for my shoulders .
Yeah whenever I bench the fronts of my shoulders hurt the next day. Push ups make feel great though. I just skip benching( I also think it’s a little silly to lift super heavy weights while lying down. It’s not really a position you ever find yourself in unless a car fall on you while you’re underneath it
Incorrect form
Dumbels offer the same shoulder benefit with the addition of being able to fully control the weight your using
@@joshdeveaux8525this. Dumbbell press or rings for push and pull-ups are great. These days people are much more aware of unnatural angles forced by straight bars
Due to injury I’ve started doing super slow push ups so I can feel if I gotta stop But I noticed that the slow push ups make me feel like a beast and my fore arms are getting bigger as well as my wrists
Slow pushups are fantastic. Slow almost anything is really good for you. Lets you feel the entire movement.
I am so jealous. I just had a tiny tear on my short head bicep. The tendon towards the shoulder got little torn.
that sucks.. i hope you will recover and keep you workout going
get well soon man, wish you a speedy recovery
Push, pull, legs, becomes quads, hamstring, quads
How did you get injured? Was it from over training, or bad form, or weight that is too heavy, or a mixture of all these?
How you doing man
its best to do both. i never knew i was doing pushups wrong until i started watching these clips.
Weighted pushups ❤.
i used to do them with my todler brother on my back back in the day
@@1man1bike1roadProgression as he grows like that Farmer who got bigger like that. 👍
I think any routine should feature both. They’re similar movements, each one provides unique benefits.
Push-ups are undeniably better, but for progressive overload and a few other factors bench pressing is more practical. If you could easily load heavier push-ups it would be the most superior chest movement but that’s not the case.
Love these collabs
Bench press is more easily loadable. However the push up just provides amazing stimuli.
See that sounds like it makes sense...But think about it. How many people can do 100 perfect form pushups at a medium tempo without stopping at all? Very few people. So people think it's easier to load up the bench and push up is just for stimuli cause their push up foundation is trash. Many people only do really fast, sloppy, half rep pushups until they feel a little bit of a burn and then conclude "eh..good warm up. Not a workout tho" of course it's not a workout. Imagine if you treated bench that way. Put on a little bit of weight..do a bunch of sloppy half reps then conclude its not a good workout. That'd be dumb (not directing this at you but anyone who think this way). If you can't at least do 50 slow controlled pushups with solid form then your pushup foundation is not good. With pushups you increase volume. With bench you increase weight. With both you can increase intensity. With pushups you have diamond, pseudo planche, decline, etc. Just these 3 variations will give you an insane pump if you actually do a pretty high volume workout and push the intensity with them. In conclusion, pushups are JUST as easy to load up, people are just ignorant and don't realize that all you gotta do is progressive overload. Use a slower tempo for more time under tension. Use different variations for increased intensity. And use more reps for more volume. And if you still don't believe it, just check out the calisthenics athletes who literally look like gymnasts and they only do bodyweight.
@@SerpentineWisdom But your last paragraph sort of proved why it is harder to progressively overload the pushup. Different variations and things like that is more complex vs simply just adding 5kg to each side of the bar. I like push ups more than the BP though, just feel it way more.
@@gtrrohit5078 Its not though. It's so simple it's fool proof. Do MORE REPS than last time. Simple enough. Right? Is standard way too easy? Do diamond. You get used to that and still want a challenge? Do decline. I would actually argue it's way easier AND simpler to add reps or switch a variation than it is to take the clamp off...grab a 45...put it on...add the clamp. Adding reps, changing variations, slowing down? That's so much easier. Just get on the ground and do it. It takes a millisecond to implement these changes. So no...you're wrong. That's just something people use as an excuse to not have a solid calisthenics foundation but logically that point is invalid.
@@SerpentineWisdom I mean whatever you believe in bro I'm not argue, all points are valid to someone who believes in them. I don't even go to the gym I just do calisthenics at home. I am just speaking from experience. Also you cannot just do basic...then diamond...then just decline as a way of progressively overloading. Doing too much of one variation leads to injury, you have to switch between them all. So again, the easiest way for me to overload was to do weighted push ups lol. Easier to track the progress.
@@SerpentineWisdom actually when you are changing the style. Like if you are good at normal pushups you start doing diamond pushup or decline pushup. You are not increasing the intensity you are changing the muscles which are used. Like diamond pushup will be more on triceps and decline on upper chest. If you want to increase strength of the same muscle then weights are your best option. Doing more reps of a single exercise at some point increase your strength but after that it will only focus on endurance. It will be just like walking in the park. If someone does not have access to a gym or weights then definitely go for callisthenics. Even if someone is a beginner he will have a lot of gains from callisthenics. But their is a limit to it.
I love doing push-ups is a natural exercise that sticks with you and when you do them right you will reach the benefits of a good physique
Both! Strength training & Body Weight exercises is a win-win for a good physique. Good video. Stay motivated!
For overall health and sculpting pushups are tops undeniable !
Weighted dips, incline dumbbell press and pushups
Phenomenal form on both exercises
I don’t have a whole lot of time to workout and don’t have time for a bunch of different variations. So, I do perfect form pushups instead of bench. My chest has a strong athletic look and is naturally proportional to the rest of my body. I have not done one rep on bench in about 15 years. I will continue to be OK without bench.
Push ups got me started. Did calisthenics for over a year then added weightlifting
Weighted push ups. On rings. Elevated
Both look like good exercise to me! Kudos to those doing either one.
This was a really concise and thorough, I had to sub haha
Pushups with bands to increase resistance at the top of the rep is literally one of the safest overloading upper body exercising you can do
That format is pretty nice
*Weighted Pushups > bench press* 💯
but how do you get the plates on your back without help?
@@wallesdrop3026 *Weights in a backpack* 👍🏼
@@bufflatino5121that's worst way to add weights . Weighted vest is much better .
a belt to hold plates on a elevated surface. just be aware that belt has to be on upper back and not on your waist.
@@kamalsharma7958 Weighted vest reduces your range of motion if you dont have paralletes. Back pack doesnt. Good backpacks can hold a lot of weight as well, more than most weight vests.
I actually love both, in this one, bodybuilder, powrlifter, calistecnicz can agree, both are amazing hahaha
for hypertrophy incline bench is probably best as you can easily progressively overload than just more reps. But i believe it is important to incorporate body weight movements like push ups as well
Push ups. In the long run, bench press creates severe deficits in real world strength. The shouder blades have to be kept retracted during bench press for optimal chest growth and rotator cuff injury prevention. But retracting the shoulder blades and performing the reps cause nerve impulse disfunction problems, in the long run people develop winged scapula. The chest and the shoulder blades lose the ability to function together. That takes years to rehabilitate, many don't have the patience to rehabilitate that much.
Idk man, kind of bench press hysteria imo. So many people who benched are just fine + I wanna get big and strong and push ups with a deficit(for the stretch)+weight on your back may be inconvenient to set up in the long run
Both. Just use good form
What about weighted push-ups?
You need both. Doing pushups will improve your bench and benching will improve your pushups
Bench is definitely superior for chest gains but push ups are a great staple to have
Moving your body through space recruits more muscles. I would argue weighted dips are the most superior
Incline bench press with dumbbells for best range of motion, pushups to finish workout
This channel has superb information! Well done!
Love the video and backing track, been sick the past couple days once im back full strength I'll be back very viciously
Great information, I love doing both and my growth has been tremendous.. Incorporate both in your workouts💪🏾
I have an expensive set of dumbbells, but when choosing my workout, my eyes gaze to the floor. Push-ups just feel so much better
Why not both?
My favorite KZhead collaboration
Who is this other guy?
eugene teo
Do both, alternating between calesthetics and weights is the best of both worlds.
I feel like Defecit pushups are better in every way Increased rom, more stable than bench No unracking Safer to go heavy and train to failure
Highly recommend incorporating a cambered/multi-grip bar for bench. It'll decrease your number but it helps with the stretch at the bottom
Muscles can stabilise but there is no such thing as ‘stabiliser muscles’
@ FitnessFaq .. Thank you for this video .. Where can I purchase the blocks I’m this video !!
Both?
I feel like push ups are better all around. At least in my case the exercise with biggest range of motion is the one I go to. The way he demonstrated push ups is the way to go. It is like a new exercise compared to your regular push ups on the floor.
Weighted dips + Bench Press >>>>>
I do push ups on the bars but my main thing is weight dips with the slight forward lean
Fantastic information. Thanks for the knowledge.
Knuckle pushups are cool. Gives you about an inch more range of motion
Weighted vests exist for this. I'm a huge fan of dumbbell press though, there's that additional element of one-arm stability and freedom to maintain a path of most direct chest activation. Keeps the shoulders healthy
I've done a bazillion push ups, but only got a big Chest after lifting weights in the gym for a couple years.
@Grand Rapids it's all about progressive overload and consistency with training and diet over the course of atleast 12 months. So if you can progressively overload and push to failure or near failure with push ups (and it's diffrrent variables) it will grow your chest. But it's harder to do with pushup as the rep range will get too high, to easily go to failure each workout. Chest training with weights is fairly simple. Train chest 2 times a week. Do anywhere from 9-20 sets per week (so 4-10 sets per session) for chest to 1-3 reps to failure. Warm up the chest muscles and shoudler rotator cuffs. And do 1 or 2 light warm up sets for each exercise first. Barbell bench press 3 "working" sets of 8-12 reps. Incline bench press 3 sets of 8 -12 reps Some sort of fly, either use cables or the fly machine. Dumbell flys are doable too. 3 sets of 10-15 reps. Everytime on the third set you hit the max reps, make note and add weight the next workout. For variety over the 12 months feel free to change up the routine every 4-12 weeks. By change up I mean, either go heavier and do 4-5 sets with 5 reps or lower the weight and do 3 sets but pushing to 15 reps. Or change the exercises for alternatives, like dumbell variations, or Dips. Main thing is consistency and pushing to failure Make sure you are getting atleast minimum protein and calories for growth. Good luck
Love the combo videos 💪💪💪
I feel pushups on rings is best. Not only are rings unstable which forces you to recruit more muscles, you can squeeze your hands together which gives you even better pec development
This is really informative thank you for this short.
Before I was horrible at Bench pressing and I couldn’t rep them out but with push-ups, it has helped me and now I can rep them
I really love the videos! They are so informational and you’ve helped me so much throughout my fitness journey.
Weighted pushups
Thanks for your video
One of the greatest co-ops 🙏🏻😤
I would like to try some weighted push ups to see the progression
Do both
Daniel's knowledge is just very impressive.
I like push-ups, but I find bench press to be much more effective for building strength and size, while push-ups are better for building muscular endurance. The issue with push ups is that they get too easy, especially if you're already fit (I can do about 60 in 1 set). While doing even more reps, make them difficult again, which stops building as much size or strength as simply adding more weight to a bench press, which has basically no ceiling. Technically, you can do weighted push-ups, but those either hurt my back or are complicated to set up compared to a bench press at the gym. Even when I was a 98-pound twig in 9th grade, I could do like 50+ push-ups in 1 set, but I would barely build any muscle. Once I started lifting weights, however, I was able to put on like 60+ pounds in about 5 years.
50+ Push ups without any muscle? No offense just asking how your form was, cuz that sounds like half reps
@@damndaniel333 form was good
Wow this dude's channel is growing. I remember watching a few years ago when I was into jake dalton vlogs and lachlan walker series. Good times, subscribed after all these years!!
I do weighted push ups on rings close to the ground. It gives me a better mind muscle connection than the bench press.
Daniel is still at it after these years. Impressive. To me, fitness is all about what you do with your built attributes. One doesn’t need much strength to survive the modern world. Basic fitness is more than enough, hence I stick to bodyweight exercises and yoga. If I played a professional sport or built my body to compete in physique competitions, I’ll pick up weights without a doubt. Since those aren’t options in my life, I do a few sets of calisthenics and call it a day.
Yoi need to collaborate more with Teo... this was great!
Both...Both are best for overall development. Build Stable muscle and build strength muscle
Yeah, i love push ups more overall, body weight is important
pushups worked my delts like no other pressing has ever done, they are amazing
I prefer push ups, but i dont overextend my arms, i extend them as much as i can without locking the elbows so i can keep pressure on the muscles😊
One of the "perfectest" forms out there.
Thx for the info
I prefer push ups to bench press the advantages of the bench is you can overload with more weight but the push ups build better stabilising muscles.
Lmao no
Show me on an anatomy chart where the “stabilising muscle” is..
@@johnjohntv1195 Stabilising muscles (plural) press ups when performed correctly engage and recruit more muscles than those in the supine position while performing a bench press.
People often underestimate the pure effectiveness of push ups and pull ups. Try doing them every day, you won’t regret it
Just do both if you’re not sure, tho I recommend doing bench BEFORE doing pushups
i swapped out flat benching and machine presses for weighted dips and weighted pushups with an added deficit. my core has certainly gotten stronger but my shoulders and triceps blew up as well
Push ups, squats, dead lifts and pull ups are all you need
Killer one I like is doing both but do heavy incline bench 6x3 then push ups focusing on the negative and form for 3 sets till failure
Great info thanks!
Push-ups are great. But when you get advanced, progressing them becomes more and more cumbersome. That's where bench press comes in, and why is not an either or issue.
from my experince, if you can do 100 push ups under 5minutes, you can benchpress 55kg. i started gym 2 weeks ago, with almost 0 experience at the gym with my homies, they shocked i can bench 50kg 😅
Both. I end my chest workout with push-ups. They suck after you burnout your chest.
Real body training: benchpress, deadlift, squat
Push ups is god tier chest exercise
Weighted push ups are the best chest workout
I'm a pushup guy from handstand push-ups to dips. I have paralletes that I made out of 1in pvc 40 years ago. And except for dips that is what I use.
well, i like doing 5x5 on flat / incline bench and then ring / deficit pushups for volume, been working fine for me , nice vid 💪
Doing both is complimentary 💪
i think that bench press is better than regular push ups for calisthenics, since push ups stop being effective after a while and you gotta find a harder variation, while bench press can sky rocket your push power and helps you almost always to improve your push power and take it to new limits.
Add resistance to make pushups, dips, pullups, invert rows etc, harder. I suppose if your a bodybuilder, and want to build unlimited size, then heavy bench presses etc, are probably the way to go. For myself at age 68: l,m just looking for fitness, and keeping in shape, so bodyweight stuff, with added weight, and the odd dumbell exercise mixed in suits me.
@@poshgentleman559 yes thats true im a body weight athelte but after couple of years i came to an understanding that mixing weights and strengthing the muscles you want to strengthen with weights are easier at higher levels. but all in all youre right. its super impressive youre atayong in shape at your age and im sure many people are inspored by you! my goal is to be the same as you when im that old. keep it up!!!!
