How To Get Better At Push Ups With Calisthenics!
A lot of us workout from home these days.
Here is a video where I talk about 6 push ups variations that you can do anywhere and that will help you target your chest and triceps.
These home workout sets are good for intermediate calisthenics practitioners. You can also use them if you are an "advanced" beginner and want to break a plateau in your push up training.
There are a lot of other different push ups and this selection is an introduction.
These push ups are made to trigger more angles and add variations to your traditional push up routine. I recommend using and mixing these alternatives in your training.

The Secret To Be Good At Pull Ups
The Secret To Be Good At Pull Ups!
Let's talk about the secret to get good at pull ups: the "false" grip.
Many people want to do pull ups but their grip strength gives up after a few repetitions.
Keep in mind that your grip is one of the most important component of strength, and being able to hold a bar with a "false grip" will dramatically improve the quality of all your movements.
This will increase your pull ups, muscle ups, as well as push ups, handstands and more.
The "False" grip generates a lot of contraction in the forearms and forces us to use more of our forearm extensors, while these are usually under trained with a "classic" grip.
You will find 3 different levels of training for your false grip:
- Beginner: 0'
- Intermediate: 2'58
- Advanced: 6'13
Practice at the level that suits you, and work your way up progressively!
Here is how to make your own beginner-intermediate calisthenics workout plan!
Have a good workout!

My Selection Of The Best Calisthenics Equipment
My Selection Of The Best Calisthenics Equipment!
The question I often hear is: what equipment do I need for calisthenics?
The basic answer is: none.
Indeed, nature and the urban environment provide all the equipment and apparatus needed for a good workout.Ā
The beauty of calisthenics is that there is always a way to workout your entire body, no matter where you are.
That being said, you can also take your training to the next level and learn many other movements, with very little and affordable equipment.
