Woah your mom has massive forearms dude.
Upper Body Workouts.
Bodyweight exercises are useless for building muscle since they lack progressive resistance.
Of course you already know this, and are just trying to stir up shit as usual.
That was without a doubt the gayest thing i've ever seen - and thats including the time i accidently clicked on the 'truce' thread :-\

Looks like you're gearing up for another big run of your bullshit hate and anti-bodybuilding propoganda. Adam, if you're still under 170 pounds at your height, nothing's gonna have changed. Nobody's gonna give a shit, no matter how lean, or how unconventional your methods. End of story.
I'm guessing that once you do achieve the most awe-inspiring, functional and universally-appreciable physiques on the planet, that you will stop saying negative things about people on the internet on a perpetual basis. Your behavior is never seen among the truly successful.
I wanna ask you, Adam...what price would be too much to pay for that accomplishment? Of having built the most admired physique on the planet? Living to 70 instead of 90 or 100? "Risk" of incarceration? People suspecting that you achieved that physique the "easy," or according to them, "immoral" way? What if steroids or diet/training techniques that you do not currently employ were actually the "only" way to achieve what you are ultimately wanting to achieve? Would you be willing to do "what it takes" then, without the ability to claim any of the methods involved as being of your own unique conception? Would having the best physique on the planet be enough to make you feel special or appreciated? Or could it be that you don't truly believe you have the genetics to create the true physique of your dreams, and that you feel you'll need to produce your best presentation whose shortcomings will be excused because of it's being "pretty good, considering?" For example, "considering" that you didn't really even try. "Considering" that you ate whatever you wanted to. "Considering" that you did no cardio. "Considering" that you didn't even eat protein, much less take steroids. "Considering" that you don't even care about bodybuilding anyway.
Could this be your motivation here? Lately you've tried to explain that you are only motivated to "help" because of your "care" for these people. I want you to ask yourself how "helping" these people could ever be considered enabling them to do something that they, by definition, needed you to be able to achieve, when you will not have indicated that you needed THEM for any part of your existence, other than the praise they stand to offer you, on account of what would then be perceived by them as your superiority to them. You are only seeking to "help" yourself. No one wants to achieve anything they don't suspect they could have ultimately figured out on their own, regardless of how much your "help" stands to improve the quality of their lives. They must be able to assume themselves in some way responsible for their own success.
Show some humility. Show some vulnerability. Show that you're fallible. Admit mistakes. Acknowledge defeat. Where's the deadlift video? Just say that you thought you could do it but couldn't. We'll understand. Your having approximated your abilities incorrectly does not mean that you are a failure. But we're going to assume that until you just say you were wrong on issues such as this one, that you yourself do innately believe yourself to be a failure and have an very self-limiting inability to consciously face that you may have been prone to error. It shows a blatant inability to be true to YOURSELF and for that reason no one is able to trust your competency. This is universal law. Hitler had this same inability. In the end, he killed himself rather than face that he may have been wrong in some of his fundamental-most assumptions, and in denial of this, he waged war with the world until the bitter end, took many innocent lives, and hurt many of the survivors in unspeakable ways in the process. The world was vulnerable to this at the time because it hadn't seen someone appear so sure of himself to that extent and be wrong before. We now know that insanity has no boundaries and your ego, like Hitler's, knows no boundaries. I believe that you would destroy us all before admitting that you were anything but the most superior individual on the planet. Look how you left Tweeter hanging. When you're wrong, you just disappear until you think we've forgotten. Thank God most of us have the sense enough not to listen to you. You are a hateful, selfish, jealous person and you are a festering sore on the sport of bodybuilding.
Until you've learned better how to "play the game," Adam, just go away. Please. You are not concerned for anyone's health, or the betterment of society. You attack people here because they make you feel inferior, and your posts here simply reinforce the legitimacy of the notion that you indeed are. Recognize that nothing truly great has ever been achieved in strict compliance with the stated moral values of a society, but rather by guidance of the much more trustworthy and heartfelt moral compass held personally by the greats having achieved these feats worthy of mention and demanding of our most genuine appreciation.
Meldown, hope this helps, I'm just saying, etc. I just hope you'll consider some of this and STFU until you've got something positive to say."

why are you quoting McJeff without attribution?at least you got it.
maybe youre too outta shape to perform them?
ill be back later, im gonna do some useless pull ups
You build muscle by increasing the work load each exercise session. That's not easily done with push-ups. It's not like you can add 5 lbs to the bar, then in a few weeks add 5 more lbs, etc, etc, etc.
Pushups are fine for trying to maintain fitness when weights aren't available, but they should never be your "primary workout" as the video suggests.
ofcourse there is progressive resistance. As you get stronger you can move from push-ups to planche push ups, to iron-cross presses, to planche iron cross presses, etc.
Bodyweight exercises are useless for building muscle since they lack progressive resistance.
ofcourse there is progressive resistance. As you get stronger you can move from push-ups to planche push ups, to iron-cross presses, to planche iron cross presses, etc.
How about just wearing a weight belt for dips and pullups ? Bodyweight excercises are only useful for beginners. But hey if you are happy with the way you look now and want to look the same 5 years later by all means keep doing it. Fear of getting "too muscular" must be a real bitch.
And I thought I had no life... ::)
great so, being an expert and all you must do planche push-ups for 20 or 30 reps right?
::)
For me, the only way to make a movement more challenging is by adding weight.
this is because you don't understand physics, and you lack an understanding of the more advanced bodyweight variations. Knowledge of either of these two would be sufficient to allow you increase the difficulty of an exercise without adding weight.how many idiots are going to follow TA into anorexia? making an execrise difficult doesn't make it more productive, more weight does. doing push ups on your knuckles isn't going to produce more chest mass ::)
Please do not bother to respond again if you will not take the time to understand what you are responding to.

another idiot who doesn't know how to use Google.fucks google have to do with anything, stupid. You should know you can only increase muscle mass to a certain point with bodyweight movements. otherwise every fucking bodybuilder on this planet would be doing push up and bodyweight squats ::)
You need to start a DNP cycle, garraeth.???
It's time to diet down.

An Olympic gymnast is probably the highest level of physical development you can achieve with body weight movements, the majority of people who train that way won't even get that far. Too bad that most of olympic gymnasts weigh around 150lbs.. I am referring to male gymnasts.
So all you tough guys could probably do these bodyweight exercises with no problem at all right:
I have been doing it all wrong all these years, I should have been getting my training information from break-dancing videos on youtube. Thanks for showing me the errors of my ways.
they are also mostly 5'6" and under and rigorously drug tested....how big do you think they would be if they were normal height and geared up.
BRUTAL LACK OF IMAGINATION
you would have been better off.
It would also serve you better to sacrifice some of your pride and recognize your mistakes, so that you can learn from people that are smarter than you. There are a lot of us, and we understand the world in ways that you probably never will.
So all you tough guys could probably do these bodyweight exercises with no problem at all right:These people have no clue.
TAAs a matter of fact, I am doing Planche and Iron Cross training. All of my workouts center around these type of exercises. It is amazing how much stronger I have gotten in such a short amount of time.
Please tell us a little bit about your training. I don't think you have really spoken much about it since you have cut down.

wow this guy is a lot stronger then me:
That guy has the right idea, when a movement gets too easy, add weight!!!!

It didn't help that he weighed 170 pounds with the vest on.
Great mass-building exercise ::)
BRUTAL SOLIPSISM
Brutal posting a video that agrees with a point that you are arguing against.
with all due respect you aren't viewing push-ups correctly
they actually allow for much finer modulation of resistance than free-weights because it is possible to increase resistance in infintessimal increments by adjusting hand position and weight distribution. In case you missed my post on the previous page:
they are also mostly 5'6" and under and rigorously drug tested....how big do you think they would be if they were normal height and geared up.

/ex-gymnast
/saw perhaps 8-10 dudes over 4 years of uni who could do good iron crosses, and that was at the nat'l level.
Chimps.....I am an ex-gymnast as well. I would love to see a video of any of these guys doing multiple planche push ups. Planche press to handstand is pretty cool to see as well. I think that the guys on here who dont think that gymnastic moves can build muscle should re-think their opinions. Even back in high school gymnastics the training was brutal.
I can just barely hold a full planche, I can do iron cross presses for reps though (lowering into iron cross and pressing back to support).
True iron crosses on rings? That would be a video to see if you truly are doing them fully.
yep.
I like to do them starting from a tuck planche instead of straight up and down, because , I feel like it hits my chest better being more horizontal and it bothers my shoulders less. I can do it straight up and down though.
Well, my shoulders could never take the rings or the high bar. I was more of a vault, floor, and parallel bar person. I SUCKED with pommel horse. With so much information on core training and the like, I would love to go back and train myself during that time. I would imagine things wouldnt be so damn difficult if I did.
The Anorexic Principles are at it again.
You two are too skinny, sickly looking.
I find it interesting this Adonis character is only followed by those 150 lbs or under.
This is "Get Big" where the goal is to get big, not anorexic.
But there's only 3 of you idiots on here, the rest just point and laugh as you "too easy" yourselves to death.
