In this Red Delta Project Podcast, Matt breaks down exactly how to build muscle with calisthenics—minus the burnout. You'll learn why results don't come from the “right” method or program, but from consistently creating a strong hypertrophy stimulus (tension × time) and giving your body the environment to adapt (sleep, nutrition, lower stress).In this episode: • Why method ≠ results (it's not pull-ups vs. lat pulldowns—it's stimulus vs. noise) • The two drivers of muscle growth: tension and time—and how to get more of both • Why consistency beats intensity, micro-workouts, density & EMOM done right • Calisthenics advantages: leverage, easy progression, comfort → harder effort where it counts • Managing stress so recovery turns into adaptation, not just survival • Practical baselines: 2 hard sets, 2–3x/week per chain; log workouts; adjust to your feedback • Tools that help (isometrics, suspension work, bands) and when to use themBeautiful Strength https://is.gd/0cqffBInto The Am Clothinghttps://intotheam.com/RDP10RDP10 for 10% off

In this episode, Cameron Harris welcomes Lisa Paparelli-DeFlavis, Owner and Instructor at Core Sport Michigan Elite, along with studio manager Carly Jakubowski, to discuss the opening of Core Sport's second location inside the Michigan Elite Sports Academy in Brighton. Originally founded in 2007 and expanded in 2010, Core Sport has built a reputation for high-quality, equipment-based Pilates rooted in the original method created by Joseph Pilates, once known as "Contrology." Lisa and Carly explain how Pilates benefits people at all stages of life and fitness, from professional athletes to total beginners. They debunk the idea that Pilates is only for dancers or those who are already flexible. Core Sport focuses on small-group classes and personalized instruction to help clients improve strength, mobility, and functional movement. Whether you are chasing peak performance or simply want to move better, Pilates can support your goals.

Resistance bands can transform your calisthenics training—and in this video, I'll show you exactly how. From push-ups and dips to squats, lunges, and pull-ups, bands offer unique advantages over traditional weight vests or plates. They're cheaper, easier to travel with, faster to adjust, and incredibly versatile for both adding resistance and providing assistance on tough exercises.We'll break down: • Why bands are more economical and portable than weight vests • How to load resistance on push-ups, dips, and squats with simple band setups • Creative ways to use bands for unilateral leg training and core work • Assisted calisthenics variations (pull-ups, pistol squats, push-ups) • How to program band training for strength, hypertrophy, and enduranceWhether you're training at home, traveling, or just want more options in your workouts, bands give you the flexibility to build strength and muscle anywhere.

Weil Du den eigentlichen Motor nie wirklich nutzt: Deine Wirbelsäule.Klingt sonderbar? Dachte ich zunächst auch.In diesem Artikel lernst Du ein Konzept kennen, das Deine Sicht auf Bewegung auf den Kopf stellt – wortwörtlich. Du lernst das Geheimnis der „Spinal Engine“ kennen, ein wenig bekanntes und dennoch mächtiges biomechanisches Modell. Es erklärt, warum Deine Wirbelsäule vielleicht der eigentliche Antrieb jeder Deiner Bewegungen ist – und nicht, wie viele denken, nur Deine Beine oder Dein Core.____________*WERBUNG: Infos zum Werbepartner dieser Folge und allen weiteren Werbepartnern findest Du hier.____________

What's the secret to legendary squats and deadlifts? Powerlifting icon Dan Green joins Mark Bell's Power Project to reveal the training strategies, mindset, and nutrition tips that helped him dominate the lifting world.

At the dawn of the modern weight training movement, one exercise quickly arose (pun intended) to prominence among the pioneers of the jolly ol' game of taming the iron:  The one-arm snatch. From barbells, dumbbells, and eventually kettlebells, it has found a place in the training of just about every serious trainee.  And if you're not currently training it seriously?  Well, this episode just might light that fire you need under your tush... On that note, if you like training that: · Gives you more strength than it takes from you · Improves your stamina and resilience simultaneously · Powers-up every nook, cranny, crevice, and corner of your Soft Machine Then you just might like my 9-Minute Kettlebell and Bodyweight Challenge. As the name indicates, it's just 9 minutes long, and it's designed to be done WITH your current workouts – NOT instead of them. Even cooler: Many find that it actually amplifies their strength in their favorite kettlebell and bodyweight moves, like presses, squats, pullups, and more. And best of all, it's free. How free?

What does the worst calisthenics program look like, and are you accidentally following it?In this episode, we're joined by Denis from Sthenics to challenge popular training myths and break down the science of calisthenics mastery.Should you build strength or chase skills first? How many skills can you train at once without burning out? What's the best way to combine static holds, dynamics, and weighted calisthenics in one training cycle? We unpack why “more variation” isn't always the answer to plateaus, how to actually progress holds like the front lever and planche, and the role of ego, muscle mass, and technique in unlocking advanced skills. We also discuss the problem with training to failure, how to troubleshoot weak points, and what to do when you don't know how long a skill will take to master.(0:00) - Worst calisthenics mistakes(3:01) - Why bands are bad(6:29) - Strength standards in bodyweight training(19:17) - Best weight lifting exercises(24:43) - Learn handstand push-ups(35:55) - Mix skills and weighted calisthenics - program design(45:20) - Train skills to failure?(49:48) - Secret to faster progress(52:13) - 1 step back, 2 steps forward(56:43) - Testing is important(1:00:53) - Holds Vs Dynamics for skills(1:06:03) - Do you need big muscles in calisthenics?(1:10:20) - Skip leg day?.Follow guest:Instagram

On this episode of the podcast we are joined by Cameron Shayne. Cameron pioneered the phrase and concept of Mixed Movement Arts in 2001 by combining the combat arts of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Mixed Martial Arts together with Yoga, Crawling Patterns, Mobility, Calisthenics, and Cognitive Studies into a single black belt system known as Budokon. Cameron also holds black belts in Olympic style Taekwondo (5th Degree), Yoshikai Karate (3rd Degree), and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Cameron joins the podcast to discuss how he started working with MLB team the Philadelphia Phillies, how his mobility work is used for muscle activation and training, the difference between an athlete and a non-athlete, how to age athletically, why acting like a hobbyist leads to injury, his unique take on Gi vs No-Gi training, and how to work with Cameron.

"You know, you and especially your grandparents could have used more of a spirit of lawbreaking. One day you will be called on to break a big law in the name of justice and rationality. Everything will depend on it. You have to be ready. How are you going to prepare for that day when it really matters? You have to stay ‘in shape' so that when the big day comes you will be ready. What you need is ‘anarchist calisthenics.' Every day or so break some trivial law that makes no sense, even if it's only jaywalking. Use your own head to judge whether a law is just or reasonable. That way, you'll keep trim; and when the big day comes, you'll be ready.”" - James C. ScottThe Resource: "Two Cheers for Anarchism" by James C.

Today, on the podcast, we discuss calisthenics: what it is, how to use it, the benefits, and how it compares to other training. Calisthenics is a form of strength training that utilizes an individual's body weight as resistance to perform multi-joint, compound movements with little or no equipment. It encompasses a broad range of bodyweight exercises that focus on fluid movement and coordination and can utilize equipment like rings, bars, parallel bars, and more. Tune in to learn everything you need to know about calisthenics, even how to create your own calisthenic workout plan.In this Episode, we Discuss: What is Calisthenics?The History of CalisthenicsBenefits of CalisthenicsA Calisthenics Workout PlanAdvanced Calisthenics Techniques Sources Mentioned: Podcast Episode: Nailing Your First Pull-upBarpath Fitness Programs (Including our bodyweight program: bend don't break) Want More?Join our Newsletter Online Nutrition Coaching Join our Facebook Group1:1 Fitness Coaching Get 3 weeks of nutrition support for freeFree Knee Pain Training GuideGet hundreds of movement demos on our Youtube channel
