3 Actionable Tips For Better Results With Calisthenics!

Want to get better results with calisthenics training? 

This may sound easy but start by doing this:

Tip 1:  Have an idea of what you are going to do at your training session.

I personally like the pulling, pushing, legs training split.

I also have a secondary layer added to this where I plan reps and volume, isometrics and skills, mobility and prehab to stay long term injury free.

Tip 2: Focus on intention on every rep 

When I say that, you may think, “of course we need that!”, well the reality is most people don’t actually do it.

When doing 10 reps, most will start losing will power after 7 or 8 reps, sometimes before that, when they get “tired”. Their mind starts to focus on saving energy rather than get those extra reps as clean as possible.

Focus until the last rep. Have the “intent” even if you fail your last rep!

Tip 3: Train with “speed”

The 3 Surprising Things That Keep You Fat!

The fitness world is full of tricks and programs to help you lose weight. 

They all promise amazing results in 4 weeks and lots of people fall into  those traps.

Meanwhile, there are very simple things you can all do in order to get leaner and stronger all year round.

This starts by avoiding these 3 mistakes:

1/ Thinking you can outwork a bad diet

A full day of calorie allocation goes roughly like the following when you workout:

- 80% goes to your daily physiological needs and vital functions. Think of things like making your heart beat, breathing, brain activity etc. There is an optimum amount of calories needed for that. 

- 20% goes to your workout efforts (what most people call "burning fat")

 So no matter what your workout is and how intense it is, you will only burn around 20% of the calories you intake that day and anything on top of the vital 80% remaining calories will be stored as fat.

I just used photos sent to me voluntarily (without my asking) by 2 different clients who have transformed their lives and bodies with the Online Calisthenics method.  

Since I always lead by example, I included my own transformation as well.

You can check out the 3 before/after pictures here.
