@hybridcalisthenics: If you want to get stronger faster, consider adding isometrics. They allow you to train with high forces while still recovering quickly - so you're able to train them more often and progress faster (the tradeoff is range-of-motion, but not as much as we'd think) Overcoming isometrics (pushing or pulling against something you can't move for a few seconds) has been somewhat popularized for strength training benefits, but yielding isometrics (holding a weight or position for time, similar to a plank) In previous videos, I've discussed how to combine isometrics with "regular" dynamic up-down movement exercises, but I can summarize here by saying you can just do 2-3 high-intensity sets for 6 seconds before your regular workouts. (I use an isometric device in the video, but you don't need it to train isometrics. You can just hold a weight for time. Or you can build your own device.) Isometrics alone don't cause a lot of muscle damage, so it allows you to train more often and still get stronger. This applies whether you have isometrics-dominant training (common for some gymnast holds), or if you just want to add it to your current training (more common). As usual, I'll add that OF COURSE you don't have to replace your exercise with isometrics. You probably shouldn't - movement is an important part of life. It's just another tool in your toolbox that you can use. Sometimes it hard to add all of this context in a single video, so this is part of a series 😅. Have a wonderful day! #hybridcalisthenics #homeworkout
