Check this out. opinions?

Question

helo all. im kinda fascinated with calisthenics and i love doing them. i stand at 5'11 and weight 75 kg. thats ideal. not too big, not too small. my personal records for calisthenics are 60 diamond pushups in a row, full range of motion, 14 weighted standard pushups in a row with 55kg person sitting on my back. full range of motion. and 25 one leg squat aka the pistol in a row for each leg. so, honestly, what do u think of that? any kind of opinions needed. and appreciated. thanks and have a nice day.

Answer 1

Sounds good, calisthenics are a very important part of your fitness regiment. A lot of people don't like to do them... so you are ahead of the game! I used to play #6 and #7, and half the battle was just being able to *get to* the play, in order to contribute (ruck, maul, tackle, catch).

The only few things I would recommend are:

1. Don't forget your core when you are exercising. Integrate abdominal work in there -- not just crunches, but leg lifts and different types of situps. These muscles hold your body together; they're not called "core" for no good reason!

2. I don't believe it is safe for a person to be sitting on your back during pushups. The weight is not distributed evenly, and will put undue pressure on your spine.

3. Consider jumping rope, and/or running.

Other than that, you're on the right track! Just keep doing what you're doing, and increase your repetitions over time.

Good Luck and Have Fun!
