burpees DO build muscle

>>123336

you wanna get strong or build muscle?

anyway, burpees, and that volume, will be cardio + stamina at best

go to sticky and find the calisthenics infographic and do that exercises for 3x3 with 5 min breaks between sets , progress like the pic tells you. do 1 major musle group a day, like only doing pullups, next day only doing pushups next day abs you get it ? if not, stick to your burpees and memes

You're not wrong but to be fair if you are a skelly mode dyel and suddenly start eating right and doing almost any kind of physical activity you will get stronger. Not necessarily strong but stronger.

I've seen this image quite a few times. I can't say I'm qualified to give an opinion, but it seems absolutely ludicrous. Why do these weird tension exercises when exercises like the pushup or pistol squat exist?

>>123360

Because you can push as hard as you care to. You can exert your muscles just as much as you would benching or pressing, and because of the breathing you hold it for several seconds. Try going through the entire scheme doing four sets of everything and see how it makes you feel.

yeah, i agree with you, but OP said

>I need to become very strong but training in isolation, without any shitty weights.

>very strong

only burpees wont cut it

ive read the art of shen-ku and honestly still dont know how memetic or legit it is…it had good segements and ones i took with grain of salt.Anyway, i wouldnt do pic related as a beginner. i would stick to pullups , pushups, dips and squats with rock as op mentioned he can lift rock and calisthenics infographi cprogressions from sticky

>>123360

isometric exercises and exercises with high tension really do work. ive seen prisoners work out using towels and cellmate to work out, and its basicl this.

also some gymnastic level stuff like planche makes your bicep strong as fuck and its not even the muscle thats targeted the most (yes i know the whole body is at work at this level stuff, but anterior delts and scapular muscles, core , spinal muslces, are "targeted" )

>>123336

No, at that volume and frequency you'll probably burn muscle

Cardio will build a little muscle and strength at first but it levels off fast.

Find a body weight strengthing routine instead of doing one meme exercise everyday.

Only heavy weight training builds muscle. Even those dudes that train in parks with only their bodyweight started with weights before doing that shit.

First you shitpost your jelquin, now this

Stop it noy

Burpees do get to quite a bit, but they don't do much for upper body pulling muscles.

You'll become a lot stronger than you are now.

But for the first months you'll be tired all the time.

1000 burpies per day is a lot
