One of the more common questions I get from beginners is if they need to follow a bodybuilding routine to build size. Many people starting out on their fitness journey are under the impression that the BEST way for them to make gains is by following the routine of a professional bodybuilder. To be clear, I have a ton of respect for the time, effort, and science that goes into bodybuilding, but for the average guy looking to get into fitness, routines designed for the seasoned bodybuilding veteran are probably not the best choice for a beginner. Beginners just need to focus on developing good training habits and a consistent practice. Size will come from just getting good at basic exercises, like push ups, pull ups, chin ups, dips, squats, lunges etc. done with and without weight. These exercises alone have the potential to build a ton of muscle, and can still serve as a foundation for future bodybuilding training. The point is, you have to walk before you can run. Don't sidestep the basics. They will take you very far, and if they don't take you far enough, then add on to them with some dedicated bodybuilding.

  • I've been following this channel for about three years. In Nov 2021 - I was 6'4' 152 lbs. Borderline anorexic. As of today I'm 192lbs, roughly 13% bodyfat. I've increased my maximum pullups from a measly 1 to ~20 in a single set with good form tapering off around 15-16 reps. Yesterday I was doing sets with a 45lb plate. I'm the strongest I've ever been, and this channel brought me a whole new perspective on long-term health and fitness. I can see muscles that I didn't even know I had. I mainly train bodybuilding but I've found calisthenics are crucial on maybe my days off, or times when I'm traveling for work and don't have access to a gym. It's truly forged a better mind-muscle connection.

    • That indeed is impressive! what kind of routine(s) did you follow to get to the 20 reps? I'm stuck at around 12/13. There are many options to break the plateau but I'm curious about your opinion on this... thanks in advanced 🙏 @Kyle Boggeman's, off course I'm interested in your opinion as well!

    • ​@@TM-721 He would likely know the scientific approach to plateau's. I'm fairly sure he has uploaded videos on this topic. For me, hitting 20 reps is still a struggle, but doable. I haven't been able to specifically identify what the determining factors are - I have a noticeable drop in performance if my sleep is poor quality. The food I eat and my stress levels impact my pull-ups. Sounds voodoo, but my best sets are always when I'm in a sort of flow state and feeling nothing but my muscles. I would also try and supplement your training with an additional focus on your back muscles. I found that lat pulldowns and rows 2x a week helped in increasing my average rep count.

Most of those people advertizing all kinds of pills and powders are just toxic. - Every day our positive existence on this modern earth is bombarded with deceit in media and the over pushing of ''supplements'' is destructive.

Now at almost 66, I can do 12 pull-ups, full ROM dips and I ATG goblet squat with half my bodyweight to a depth of 6 inches (knee issues gone!). Totally rebuilt and gaining! Great advice as always!

  • Hey man, I never comment on KZhead, but for you I had to. You changed my whole approach to physical training. Instead of following any specific program, which has always failed for me, I have been training calisthenics daily for a year with only these simple guidelines that you highlight: - consistency and volume over optimization - nearing failure without risking injury - paying attention to quality of each rep instead of counting them I am in the best shape I have ever been and getting better at 27, and most of all I take pleasure from training. I cannot thank you enough. All the best

  • After training bodybuilding exercises my entire teenage years to basically 30 years old, I can say, without a doubt calisthenics has built the most muscle and the shortest period of time I have ever witnessed. People are so wrapped up in weightlifting and bodybuilding splits, they are just so naïve or unwilling to accept the pure unadulterated power of calisthenics to build an extremely muscular and aesthetic physique. I have seen muscles on my body grow that I could never get to with weightlifting. Gymnastics and calisthenics training have changed my life drastically. Great post bro.

    • You hit the nail on the head. There are so many folks out there that believe that they need to somehow 'hack' fitness, that there's some magical key, a special split, a special method etc. and like Kyle says, they look at folks that are already straining at the edge of their potential (often with PEDs to help) to somehow guide them. But the reality is quite different, what this journey really requires is faith in the biology of your body to respond, development of mental discipline to stick with it, and continual refinement of the basics.

  • I can second everything you said in this video! In my early twenties I was doing unregular and very simple calisthenic exercises on and off, but once I started doing them regularly a little over a year ago (at around 26), I have noticed a steady increase in muscle gain, strength, endurance and overall health. Nowadays I try to exercise 3-4 times a week while varying between pull- and push-focused days. It's always fun, I always discover new ways of varying exercise levels which keeps me motivated, and it feels like I've only just begun my journey! I may not watch all of your videos, but I tune in once in a while and your channel is the one that got me fired up the most for my calisthenics journey.

A slow & steady persistance , with small increments in difficulty and a lot of patience has helped me to get back my strength and mobility to a point where I'm arguably stronger than I was before with very minimal pain. Not really on topic but thought i'd share with any newbies like me who might be experiencing their first injury setback. Calisthenics for me has been a great forworking out within the current capabilities of my body

  • I have been training like this for almost a year, inspired by your videos, and the results are visible both in hypertrophy, aesthetics, strength and functionality. I just do more dips and less pushups, more rows and less pull ups (still improving the numbers), and added a day for kettlebell swings and plyometrics. Still, the philosophy is there, focusing on technique and adding weight. PPL everyday and some core work, 4 sets for group. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us and I'd like to know how I can support you. Best

I’ve tried for about over a year to supplement weight training to keep my body balanced but it has always felt like I was too beat to make gains in both at the same time. These seems way more practical, and likely most complimentary to climbing, and improving weaknesses in my body that climbing doesn’t get to work. Anyways good stuff man.

  • Thank you for this. I have went through trial and error from consuming the wrong type of fitness information and thought that the bodybuilding approach had to be applied to calisthenics. Once I learned that I could still be strong, good amount of muscle and have the endurance through pure Calisthenics training. It changed everything. As you have said here and in one of your videos about legs, we aren't training for mass. There doesn't have to be isolation exercises and a ton of excessive volume. The basics with Calisthenics just works fine. Especially when it comes to training legs, I don't need big tree trunks nor do I ever want that for quads. Thanks for it all Mr.Boges

    • 100% I think a lot of people in the bodybuilding mindset are baffled by the leg thing... "How do you get your legs HUGE with calisthenics?" Well not everyone wasn't huge legs. Some people want slim and athletic legs for running, sprinting, cycling, hiking, climbing, martial arts, swimming, etc. And there is not doubt that you can achieve some aesthetic legs with just BW exercises.

  • I love how your approach to fitness and health is similar to my way of thinking. In my 20s and 30s I would spend couple hours of training exercise, which included running/road racing. Now, I take what maximizes the most for the best results in *less time* from what I have experienced thru the years. And still keep my physical shape and stamina. Now, my days of training exercises are done. Thru the years I've gone from 5 sets to 3 sets and now to 1 set only of pull-ups, horse stance, small weights - squats, military press, upside down push-ups (back against the door or wall) and a bench press. In addition, to a few arch and leg stretches to warm-up before I start, which usually gets me going even when I'm not as motivated. I finish off with the 5 Tibetan Rites and single wheel roller. And wrap-up with about 3 minuets of lymphatic exercise on my mini trampoline. All these exercises in less than 40 mins. including some time petting and talking to my cats, and my body is still physically cut with stamina. And people are shocked when they find out my age. Watching your channel is a big plus for many reasons as I continue to invest in my fitness without putting a lot of stress on my body. Thank you and keep on trucking!
