These do not ALL have to be performed, but are options for progressing in your specific movements. I also went over some of these things in the scaling section in much less detail.** One Arm Pull Up Practice: Step one will always be performing regular, strict pull-ups. Prior to those you can use the scaling techniques we talked about above. Perform One Arm Pull-Ups either with a band, or assisted, while using your other arm to hold the wrist performing the movement. Eventually progress to strictly holding your wrist while performing. Front Lever Practice and Progression: Stage One: Tucked Front Lever Grab the bar within overhand grip. Pull your legs and hips up, at the same time, while leaning back. Your back should be rounded and your body tucked up into as much of a ball as you can possibly be. And, although your back is rounded, you want it approximately parallel to the ground. Stage Two: Tucked Lever First things first: start in the tucked lever position. Instead of immediately rounding your back, now you’re going to attempt to straighten it. It should form a straight line almost parallel with the ground. At the same time, pull your shoulder blades back in retraction. Open your legs up slightly so your thighs are perpendicular with your body. This opening up increases the leverage you’re able to create. Stage Three: Single Bent Leg Front Lever Start from the tuck lever with both your legs tucked in as hard as you can. Now attempt to extend one leg, but keep the knee bent. The lower leg will be perpendicular to the ground, but your hip will be opened up completely. (Your leg is still bent but one is out and your toes are now facing the floor) Now alternate legs between your sets. Stage Four: One Legged Front Lever Start again from the tucked front lever position. Extend one leg out completely straight. The other leg will be tucked in hard to the chest. Now alternate legs between your sets. Stage Five: Single Bent Leg Single Straight Leg Front Lever Start in the tucked front lever position. Extend one leg out completely straight. Attempt to keep the other leg is partially untucked. Now alternate legs between your sets. Stage Six: The Front Lever You made it! Starting from the tuck lever position, and keeping both legs together, slowly extend them out at the hips and knees until they are completely straight.

  • Effect of Progressive Calisthenic Push-Up Training on Muscle
    EFFECT OF PROGRESSIVE CALISTHENIC PUSH-UP TRAINING ON MUSCLE STRENGTH & THICKNESS A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the North Dakota State University of Agriculture and Applied Science By Christopher Joseph Kotarsky In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Major Department: Health, Nutrition, and Exercise Sciences March 2016 Fargo, North Dakota North Dakota State University Graduate School Title Effect of progressive calisthenic push-up training on muscle strength & thickness By Christopher Joseph Kotarsky The Supervisory Committee certifies that this disquisition complies with North Dakota State University’s regulations and meets the accepted standards for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE SUPERVISORY COMMITTEE: Kyle Hackney, Ph.D. Chair Bryan Christensen, Ph.D. Jason Miller, MS Approved: 3/24/2016 Yeong Rhee, Ph.D. Date Department Chair ABSTRACT Calisthenics, a form of resistance training, continue to increase in popularity; however, few studies have examined their effectiveness for muscle strength improvement. The purpose of this study was to compare progressive calisthenic push-up training (PUSH) to free weight bench press training (BENCH) as techniques to develop muscle strength and thickness. Twenty-three healthy, moderately trained males (mean ± SD: age 23 ± 6.8 years) were randomly assigned to PUSH (n=14) and BENCH (n=9), and trained three days per week for four weeks. Muscle thickness, seated medicine ball put, one repetition max bench press (1RM), and push-up progression (PUP) were measured pre- and post-training. Results revealed significant increases in 1RM (p<0.001) and PUP (p<0.05) for both groups post-training. The increase in PUP, however, was significantly greater for PUSH (p<0.001).

Watching them perform the question inevitably arises - are they as powerful as they look? And the answer is - yes. What will probably be even more surprising to you is that they build their strength and physiques almost entirely with various bodyweight exercises. The list of requirements is long and can be rather daunting to prepare a world class athlete: passive flexibility, active flexibility, joint preparation, static strength, dynamic strength etc. etc. and is probably only interesting in detail to those of us involved with the physical preparation of champions. There are of course some supplemental exercises where weight is added (i.e. weighted leg lifts), however the central premise remains; these amazing athletes have built the vast majority of their strength and power through the use of bodyweight conditioning. 1 of 16 5/29/04 1:55 AM Building an Olympic Body through Bodyweight Conditioning http://www.dragondoor.com/cgi-bin/articles.pl?rm=mode3&articleid=229 Now another question that we should ask ourselves - is the bodyweight training of the Olympians also beneficial to the fitness enthusiast? And if so, is it possible to apply at least some of it to those without a professional instructor to guide them or tens of thousands of dollars of specialized gymnastics equipment? And the answers are once again - yes and yes.

    Parkour Push-ups: 25 Push-ups for the Traceur By: Ben Musholt Version 1.0 Copyright © 2012 Ben Musholt All rights reserved. This work is licensed under Standard Copyright License.

Before beginning any exercise routine, including the exercises illustrated in this book, please seek medical clearance from a physician or other licensed medical professional. The author wishes you to have fun in your pursuit of your fitness, but please: Be safe! Introduction It’s safe to say that everyone is already familiar with the push-up as a key movement in the pursuit of physical fitness. It is widely recognized as the “king” of body-weight exercises, for its pure simplicity, as well as the variety of different ways it can be performed. As a parkour practitioner, you’re undoubtedly already incorporating push-ups into your strength and conditioning routine. The goal of Parkour Push-ups is to introduce you to 25 new varieties of push-ups, which should have a positive impact on your training and performance. The rigors of being a traceur place a high degree of stress on your bones, joints, and musculature. It’s essential to condition your body to the multiple jumps, sprints, rolls, and occasional crashes, that you encounter while out running. If you only ever performed an exercise in a single plane of movement, you’d never provide the type of variety that your body needs to be prepared for the unexpected ways it must move when being athletic.

  • KINETIC, KINEMATIC, and ELECTROMYOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS of INCLINE and DECLINE PUSH-UPS with DIFFERENT CADENCES by Keke Yang a DISS
    KINETIC, KINEMATIC, AND ELECTROMYOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS OF INCLINE AND DECLINE PUSH-UPS WITH DIFFERENT CADENCES By Keke Yang A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Kinesiology 2011 ABSTRACT KINETIC, KINEMATIC, AND ELECTROMYOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS OF INCLINE AND DECLINE PUSH-UPS WITH DIFFERENT CADENCES By Keke Yang This study evaluated if the incline and decline push-up provided any advantage in weight training and physical therapy when compared to the standard push-up; the effects of different performance cadences were also investigated on the incline, standard, and decline push-up. Specifically, the purposes of this study were to examine, as a result of increased incline and decline angles and performance cadences: a) what are changes in the three maximum right hand forces, represented as a percentage of body weight? b) What are changes in the perpendicular hand force patterns when one switches from the incline push-up to decline push-up? c) Which muscle among the pectoralis major, triceps brachii, deltoid, and upper trapezius is the relatively most active one in a standard push-up, after muscle activities are normalized to the Maximum Voluntary Isometric Contraction (MVIC) test? and d) How do muscle recruitment patterns change from the incline to decline push-up? Twenty four college students and recreational weight trainers (age: 19.8±1.4 yrs; weight: 159.8±26.7 lbs; height: 173.9±9.5 cm) participated in this study. Each participant completed two preliminary phases and a formal testing phase on the same day. The formal testing phase consisted of 15 sets (5 body angles and 3 performance cadences) of push-ups, with 3 repetitions in each set.
