@fromgenesistorevelation Good points, especially about volume and periodization.
I saw a comment on yesterday's thread about pushups getting a lot of upvotes when recommending wide pushups for chest, and since I find them overrated I looked back at this article I had read and thought was more...
@melissamagnus Cool, I have found his video of front lever rows and many front lever holds, but didn't find footage of the straddle planche and hefesto after looking through like 20 of his 80 current videos.
@deborah123 It's true, but I have not seen anything closer.
Still, I am excited for the future of bodyweight training, since there are a lot more people doing them worldwide and in the next years we will see movements no one had succeeded at before.
@richtoday Since the form of the exercises is similar, with only moderate differences in hand placement, it should reliably tell which of these 5 variations activate some muscles more than others.
Other than intensity, more range of motion also affects gains, but for these pushups it's similar...
@deborah123 So it would be a one arm chest to bar/chest to ring followed by a one arm impossible dip?
Though the pullup in the video does not have the same range of motion of an actual two arm chest to bar, and I have not seen full range one arm front lever rows either.
@chickenbaltiriceandnaan Yeah, normal youtube videos are not really an example of fictional media and the really good athletes are much stronger than Frank.
@dawn16 Chest flyes are the best isolation, weighted standard pushups (or band resisted according to this ) can be as good as the bench press, pseudo-planche and diamond are good, archer pushups too I guess. Personally I feel ring and partially RTO (rings turned out) dips in the chest a lot.
