    SQUEEZE YOUR ARMPIT!

    @patrick_m Can't say about OHP but for pike pushups and HSPUs, it is a must. Flaring out your elbows on these is wrong.

    SQUEEZE YOUR ARMPIT!

    @darrell999 Squeezing your armpit and bringing your elbows closer is pretty much the same cue. It engages the back and more scapula stability.

    SQUEEZE YOUR ARMPIT!

    @layk Its not useless. Tucking-in your elbows together is a must in all upperbody calisthenics exercises. Squeeze your armpit cue makes it easier to accomplish.

    Calisthenics Intermediate Hypertrophy Program using Dr. Mike Israetel's Volume Guidelines

    @bibbigo The pullup problem is something I can relate to as well. Before I discovered this sub, I just tried to do as many pullups as I could hoping that this would increase my pullup numbers. I had no idea how progressions work.

    Calisthenics Intermediate Hypertrophy Program using Dr. Mike Israetel's Volume Guidelines

    @bibbigo I agree that RPE can be a bit tricky to implement. For that matter, percentages of 1 rep max can work but that is almost impossible to calculate correctly with bodyweight only exercises. That's why I went with RPE.

    @cross_product It is called deload. Once you get more experienced and more strong, you'll need to do it more often.
