In this episode, I talk about several calisthenics exercise and variations you can use to develop your legs. Different variations of the basic movements can be used to emphasize different parts of your legs, helping you reach your aesthetic goals.
Squats are the foundational leg movement that develop a base level of strength, conditioning, mobility, balance, and muscle mass in the lower body. Lunges can be an exceptionally effective tool for glute development, but also have a role as a total and complete leg developer as well. Pistols are perfect for those with stubborn legs, who need more intensity in their leg training.
Aside from the basics, jumping rope, running, sprinting, plyometrics, cycling, and isometrics can all be used, carefully and strategically, to further develop some aesthetic legs (more as a byproduct).

    Just tried these exercises as I’m in quarantine right now. Normally, I do back squats, leg press and other powerlifting stuff to train my legs. This was way harder than I expected it to be. Focusing on perfect form essentially almost always halves the amount of reps you can do, I had such a hard time with the lunges. As a finisher, I did the horse stance for as long as I could hold it. My legs are still on fire. Great stuff man!

    Great content, Kyle. I have really been following your channel for the last several months. Love it. Simpler is better, as I used to do the 20 rep breathing squats. Now, at 65, not so much. One overlooked exercise is the cossack squat, as it adds another stimulus to leg training. It is also a fantastic hip mobility movement. Anyway, keep inspiring and educating.

    Thank you! Yeah lots of opinions out there. Most everyone has a point. A lot of us are coming from very different perspectives and targeting different audiences. My channel has never been about how to get the biggest, the most jacked, the strongest etc. My goal is to show people that getting in shape is simpler than they thought, that all the equipment can be had for cheap, its accessible, and the time investment is doable for just about anyone. Also, for younger guys, they can build an awesome foundation that will set them up for whatever they want to do athletically. So many people want to put the cart before the horse, and so many are leaving the fundamentals behind without ever having actually gotten good at them... then we in the industry wonder why so many people get hurt, quit, or don't train to begin with.

I did/do them on the beach and though I thought I was in very good shape I ended up really tearing up my calf muscles that took a very long time to fully heal, by doing soft sand barefoot sand dune sprints at the beach. But yeah they get you in crazy good shape but just ease in to them and don't try to do Marine Recon level workouts when you are an old fart like yours truly.

    New sub to the channel. Didn't realize I was into calisthenics until I started watching your channel. My journey started back in December of 2020 and my goal was to start doing push ups. I could barely do 10-12 but I would do them in the morning after cardio then again in the afternoon after cardio. A year later and I can do 100 in the AM and another 100 in the PM, everyday, and I am in the best shape of my life (turn 50 in a few weeks). I would be remiss if I didn't mention I was hyper-focused on what I ate (I follow a keto lifestyle). Started at 215 and now I'm down to 158 and for the first time in my life I have defined chest, shoulders, biceps, and triceps. Even a couple of abs are showing.

    I’ve really taken to Cossack squats as my go to squat movement just because they looked like fun. I’m almost 3 years into training with my focus being on health and longevity. I’ve never really taken them to failure, or focused on aesthetics, but after my second year I noticed out of the blue “hey I’ve got some size and definition going.” nothing incredible but certainly happy with the progress. I can’t wait to see where I am in 10 years time.

    @@hekkrjs2698 For sure. So some of my favorite ones include: Frog leaps (killer for quads, glutes, and even core) Sprints, just do short intervals of intense sprints (in somewhere safe ofc and make sure to properly warm up to not fuck up a hip flexor or a hamstring) Static vertical jumps, but land and balance with one leg (so you use one leg as a spring when you fall, but you jump with two) Jumping or hurdling over objects, could be small fences, bushes, and so on. Nothing motivated you more to jump high than the realization that failure is going to be painful. Also I have a free basketball field available usually, where I just do figure 8s, and jump and touch the backboard or hoop. I switch with which leg I jump. If you got a friend you can also do jumping, clapping Bulgarian split squats. Lastly as finishers squat jumps, or regular high rep lunges, or even maintaining a stat squat position. These are all good

    @@hekkrjs2698 To warm up, I very lightly jog for a bit, do quite a bit of dynamic stretches, bunch of forwards and reverse lunges, side lunges as well, I also recommend running backwards (safely ofc), helps me warm up my knees personally. I also do a bunch of bodyweight squats, high reps until I feel like I'm good to go. Finally before sprinting, I first do a couple of sets where I slowly build up to my max speed at the sprint, so go from jogging, to faster jogging, speeding up and then full speed. I built some muscle for sure, but already having a good mind muscle connection from training at the gym, I was able incorporate those connections in plyometrics. Frog leaps you'll see that your quads will be burning just as much or even more than for example squatting at the gym I mostly started plyometrics because I wanted to gain explosive power and not remain slow.

    Thank you for this video, I do a lot of body-weight training already, so this will be something to work on. I was wondering on progressions for pistol squats, do you have a recommended routine to build up to them? My wife and I currently have stair climbing and hill sprints in our workouts, but I have avoided the Hindu squats because they previously have caused problems behind my knees. After performing them, I cannot fully straighten my legs for about 20 minutes. It feels like a tendon has shortened and won't allow my leg to straighten. Have you heard of this?

    Hi, just picked up on your videos a week or so ago and am really enjoying them. Quick question: I'm 62 and have been Lifting for the best part of my life (since '76) apart from a about a five year period where I ran, swam and cycled. About the last two/three years I've found recovery from my intense full body lifting sessions really taking too long, 72 hours normally. Would a full body calisthenics workout cut recovery time down?

  • @raksh9

    2 жыл бұрын

    Depending on the weights and exercises you use, a full body weights program can be more taxing on the muscles and nervous system than calisthenics. In bodyweight training, you don't support a weight between reps, which adds to fatigue. In theory, if you follow a K Boges style program, you will train every day but make judicious use of active rest days where necessary.

    Sissy squats are an intense quad builder. Doing them on an elevated surface (like a box) increases range of motion, and leaning back further makes the movement much more difficult. Using a set up like this it would make sense to think that one legged sissy squats are possible (with some assistance to help with balance). If so, that would build an enormous amount of strength, along with nordic curls for some hamstring work.
