I wanted to start a series of videos addressing exercise selection for the development of particular body parts. The basic calisthenic movements can build a really aesthetic, fit and healthy looking physique, but some of us have body parts that are more stubborn than others. There are several simple variations of the basic movements that can be used to emphasize certain areas of the body.
Today is all about biceps. The biceps get stimulated with all pulling variations, but it's the variations that have your palms supinated that really hit the biceps hard. While the standard shoulder- width chin up is my go-to biceps exercise, close grip, wide grip, and weighted variations can all be used to add variety and stimulate the biceps from different angles. Supinated grips on rows also hit the biceps hard and rings allow a little bit more flexibility on both rows and pull ups, so just make sure to supinate and squeeze the biceps hard at the top.
I think it's best to rotate through variations so below, I'll give an example of a very basic 5x per week pulling routine and a 3x per week pulling routine.
5x per week
Monday- Weighted Chin Tuesday- Supinated ring row Wednesday- Close Grip Chin Thursday- Wide grip pull up Friday- Wide grip chin up
3x per week
Monday- Weighted Chin and close grip chin Wednesday- Wide grip pull up and supinated ring row Friday- Wide grip chin and ring chin

    I like how you have a personality and aren’t afraid to do a joke now and then. Some of these other TikTok body builders just record themselves yelling at their phones. You on the other hand have managed to deliver calisthenic routines in an inspirational and comforting fashion. Keep up the content K

    I’ve been playing with combining exercises to get more out of each one. I recently started doing ring rows and then rotating the rings toward me to do slow eccentrics on the way down. That way, I’m targeting my back on the way up and biceps on the way down. I had elbow issues doing chin-ups and now stick to pull-ups.

    Your content is top tier - *I appreciate your thoughtful, intelligent approach* Thanks for the motivation, and sorry for sleeping on it for 3 years! Running, push ups, chin ups, dips, rows, hanging leg raises - variations and weighted - has given me incredible results in terms of getting lean and shredded (4% body fat). To build bulk, I incorporated curls, bench, cable work, shoulder press and lat pulldowns - with variations of course. Do this - and push yourself - and do your squats/deadlifts and you'll be shredded eventually too. Also, if you're not doing super sets, you have more potential for gains/losses still. So if you start to plateau, look into super sets. Bench press directly into chin ups then into dips...talk about building mass, fast! Oh yeah, EAT CLEAN and DRINK WATER ! Supplements can be helpful but are not necessary, so don't let anyone tell you they are.

    I do a lot of chin ups (and pullups)...for bicep development I would just add that chin ups where you hang more with your chest facing the bar and do (even mini) chin ups just pulling your chest towards the bar really helps isolate the biceps rather than all the back work that takes place with the standard chin up. It REALLY blasts your biceps.

    I've been utilizing a daily 1x Push , 1x Pull , 1x Leg exercise routine for the past two months or so, which on most days means Pushups , Pullups , and Squats. How would you recommend I work in chinups to this routine if I want to eventually work towards 3x25 as stated in the video? Would replacing pullups with chinups 1-2 a week suffice to build towards that goal? Or do you recommend treating chinups as a supplement to my main daily pull exercise (pullups). I like pullups enough that I'd love to do them everyday, but I feel working towards 3x25 on top of a daily 30-40 pullups might be too much volume and strain on my body. Interested to hear your thoughts on how I may be able to balance progress on both pull movements. Thanks as always, this channel and your content is grade A.

    Thanks Salvo. I usually train at around an RPE 8-9 but I really try to train with the best form possible. When I feel my form start to degrade, or I no longer can perform the movement with excellent form, I usually stop. If I'm being loose with my form, and just go all out, I can sometimes double my training reps, but I don't do that very often. So, I push hard while keeping good technique and use that as a sort of way to manage the fatigue while still allowing a really hard effort.

    Still loving the HFT training videos. Simple movements + daily = great results. I too have quite a bit of education and training in kinesiology; and the more I read on whatever the newest study/program/etc, I find I keep coming back to tried and true simple basics: done as fresh as possible, as often as possible. I do have a question: Any recommendations on nutrition/diet you find works best for you. I definitely find that calisthenics naturally helps me to not hold on to weight due to the effects it has on exercise (more weight on me, of course harder the movement)-but anyway just curious if you find a certain way of eating (clean/keto/IF/etc) works better for you. Thanks in advance and really enjoying the videos.

    CJ, Thanks for the kind words and support! I couldn't agree more with your perspective. A daily dose of the basics goes WAY further than what most of the fitness industry would have us believe. My hope is that I can show that the basic movements, that are accessible to almost everyone, can be incredibly power when done in the manner you described. For diet, I'll describe what works for me... I tend to keep a pretty tight eating window of about 4-6 hours and will usually have 2 meals in that time, so lunch at about 1:30 and dinner at about 6. I'm strict about not snacking. The meals I make for myself are usually big salads with berries, olive oil, huge amount of greens, vegetables and lean meat. I like eggs and fruit, so they always accompany the meal on the side. I'm very consistent with this but have 0 issues enjoying myself on 2 or so cheat meals per week. I know some may find that very restrictive, but I actually really enjoy the foods I eat, and don't limit how much I consume at each meal. In the future, I might document a weeks worth of meals, cheat meals included.

    Close-grip chins being superior than wide for bigger biceps is a misconception because the closer-grip has less supination than shoulder width and wider.

    @@Kboges I have mostly seen pseudo planche push-ups with strong emphasis on fully rotated wrists as biceps push-ups but standard reverse grip push-ups are also seen as a solid biceps exercise by some people. Main focus is reverse grip so that your arm movement is similar to a biceps curl.

    @@keremkaya6915 Great question! OK... The Pseudo Planche Push Up DEFINITELY puts more stress on the bicep, particularly at the top of the push up, since there is horizontal distance from you shoulder to you hands. The lower your hands go, the more stress is applied, and if you go low enough, you would be doing a planche push up. This move would develop a lot of "straight arm" biceps strength, but it does come at the risk of injuring the biceps tendon. If it was a move you wanted to pursue, proceed slowly and cautiously with more conservative progressions and preparation, and back off if you start to feel any irritation or soreness in the biceps tendon. I specifically left this movement out of my biceps segment because it is not as accessible to everyone as the chin up, plus it carries with it a higher injury risk- and it's not something I use personally or professionally. The standard reverse grip push up is a really fantastic exercise, but definitely more of a triceps movement. I like this movement a lot, and will feature it in the triceps segment. It doesn't train the biceps sufficiently because during the movement, the biceps are being simultaneously lengthened at one end and shortened at the other, and if your hands are stacked directly under your shoulders at the top, there is minimal moment (horizontal distance) created between hands and shoulder. I hope that makes sense and if it doesn't, just let me know and I can try to clear up any confusion.

  • @007GrGa
    @007GrGa3 жыл бұрын

    Man if I had a YT channel it would be like yours! I like how every rep is done perfectly and this is the mindset that I always carry and am known for in our street wprkpjt community. For me it has never been how much reps can I do, but hod many quality can be done with core and legs firing up too whenever I do push or pull exercises of the upper body. I have a question for you. I was wondering how come my body prefers feet together deep squat while rounding back (red delta project talks about it) and not so a standard squat which alwasy feel somehow unnatural. I also like to the backward lunges for the legs. And through the times I have found that whenever I do push ups and twist my head to the side (every set I change the side) that I get better foucs and muscle contraction. What do you think is it dangerous to do it so?

  • @Kboges

    3 жыл бұрын

    Thanks so much for the support! I totally agree. Making your reps PERFECT is a form of progression, and WAY more important than how many reps you can get. Great questions here. Regarding the squat, my suspicion is that this is just a function of how you are built. We all have different leg lengths relative to torso length, and that combined with our mobility, hip structure, and habits often determines what technique we find most natural. It's different for everyone because all of these variables that go into squatting are different. Your natural squat is going to be very different than mine, and thats totally cool. It can be fun to play around with different squat variations. Wide stance squats feel very awkward and unnatural to me, but I do like to throw them in the mix just to do develop a squat style that I'm not naturally good at. As for twisting the head to the side... I get what you are saying. If I do decline push ups with my hands on the ground, I will sometimes turn my head from side to side on each rep. It definitely feels natural and I get better range of motion. I don't see a big injury risk with it- worst thing is you might tweak your neck. It has never happened to me, and if you have been good so far, it's probably fine. Thanks for the support and the great questions. Let me know if anything else comes up. Keep training hard!
