Calisthenics Bodybuilding
Calisthenics vs Weights
Why bodyweight training is better then weightlifting.
Calisthenics and weights both work your body's major muscle groups to produce a more muscular and fit body. There are advantages and disadvantages to both forms of exercise, so it is important to choose the one that will benefit you the most. Many experts now agree that calisthenics is more productive for muscle building along with the overall health and strength of your body. Incorporating these types of workouts can help you gain muscle, strength, and increase your endurance.
Many people choose weight lifting when they want to start working out, but the disadvantages of weight lifting often outweigh the benefits. When you are lifting weights or using weight machines, you can often cause injury to your body by trying to lift weights that are too great for what your body can handle. Weight lifting is simply much harder on your body than using your own body weight in calisthenics.
Calisthenics is much easier on your body. This allows you to work all of the major muscle groups in your body while keeping the resistance at check because you are using your own body weight. Calisthenics also work your heart so that you improve your overall health and resistance. This allows you to grow more physically fit without so much strain and pressure on your body. This type of exercise truly helps your entire body become more physically fit.
If you are looking to gain muscle, strength and health, then calisthenics are best for you. Weights cannot give you the overall benefits of working your entire body like a good calisthenics program can. They actually work fast then weight lifting programs do, and the effects of good health will be much more effective and longer lasting. Before you know it, you will be feeling much stronger and see the difference in you muscle size and definition.
Before you begin calisthenics training, make sure that you check with your doctor to be sure that you are in good health. Your doctor can advise you on starting out in calisthenics. It is important that you start slowly and work your way up to an optimum program. This will make a calisthenics workout much safer and more productive.
In my book "The Muscle Experiment" I talk about how I was able to put on a solid 39lbs of solid muscle in less than 6 months with bodyweight training, and exactly how YOU can do it as well. In case you haven't downloaded The Muscle Experiment, I suggest you download it immediately and start implementing the little known techniques. This alone should put you on the road to massive size and strength.
To your success,
