Well dips are much more stable than handstand push-ups. Of course you can do HSPU against a wall. I would recommend for the majority of people to do pike push-ups isntead of handstand push-ups since they are more stable and thus you can focu more on pressing and less on cordination and balance. But HSPU are focusing more on the shoulders and triceps whilst dips focus more on chest and triceps

Yea it´s mainly if someone likes to train push-pull-legs and really likes a lot of volume. You can definitively get results with less volume

Thats always a great option 💪🏽

Glad you liked it! Thats a great suggestion, that could be a potential video in the future 💪🏽

Hill sprints for you then 💪🏽

Thank you 💪🏽

Sure! So the soreness will be less and less everytime you do dips (You will still get some soreness when change up the stimulus. For example if you go from low rep dips to high rep dips or if you have a long break from training in general). In terms of how to combine both of them you need to take into consideration how many times per week you want to train: If you train 2-3x per week then I would recommend full body workouts - In this case you could use dips as your upper body pushing movement on one or 2 of the days and push-ups on one or on the rest of the 2 days. If you train 4x per week I would go with a upper/lower split (Upper body days and lower body days) In this case you could fit both of them into the same upper body workout. (In this case I would do the dips first as they are the more challening exercise and if you start with push-ups (At least for now) then you might have very few reps in your dip sets. If you are concerned about the fact that your dip rep numbers are lower than your push-up numbers then you can simply do banded dips in that case and get those reps higher. Hope that gave you some structure and cleared some things out for you, good luck!

@@goprimate I train as daily as I can in a week with pushups (standard and knee'd) and squats. What I'm planning to do later is 3 sets of 10 reps pushups and 3 sets 3 reps of dips since Im a beginner. Would that be viable or I really need to seaparate them?

@@LabRynthisist Got it! In that case (Training more or less daily) I would recommend doing push-ups every other day and dips every other day. Or if you really want to do both in the same day I would limit the toal sets to 3 (Since both are chest and tricep exercises): So you could do it the following way: Day 1: 2 sets push-ups, 1 set dips Day 2 : 2 sets dips, 1 set push-ups Day 3 etc: 2 sets push-ups, 1 set dips

@@goprimate much appreciated man but, Ima try and push myself. Just did 3 sets 10 reps of standard pushups and 3 sets 10 reps of dips, I still got energy left and feel fantastic. Gonna do 1 more set of pushups theb move on to some sets of body rows. Thank you so much for replying, hope you have not just a good day, may your health be good for the days to come.

@@LabRynthisist Thank you likewise man! Just a quick note before you make your decision: The reason for splitting the push-ups and the dips into max 3 sets is not for feeling tired after the workout but more for recovering throughout the week long-term (So in the long run you will accumulate more fatigue if you do 6 hard sets for a mucle group 6-7 times per week and your chest might not be fully recovered for the next day of 6 sets whilst it very likely will be recovered after 3 sets). The other thing is the quality of the sets which is also linked to the previous point. But glad to hear you are excited about training and go with the way you feel most compelled to, you can always change things up if you want , good luck!💪🏽😎

Thanks boss 💪🏽

I would recommend leg assisted chin-ups + banded chin-ups with a faster concentric phase (The lifting phase) Here is a video of leg assisted pull-ups, you can adjust the grip to chin-ups instead (Skip to 1.43 on the video) kzbin.info/www/bejne/o36rhWybbadrqqs. Good luck!

Glad you found it helpful, good luck!

Well in terms of mobility you want to also strengthen the muscle in the stretched position so the body/muscles dare to go into that position since they "know" they can produce force in that lengthened position so I dont think it would hurt to ad some active hangs or maybe do them as scapular pull-ups instead of active hangs. Here is a short video coverin them kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIDNmYx4n9aJfsU. Side note: quite often you get shoulder pain becasue something is very tight, and usually in the case of the shouldet (Not always) it is the lats and/or the pecs so I would start by stretching out those which for many of my clients has solved their shoulder pain. good luck Ferre!

@@goprimate The pain mostly comes from pushes excercises not pull, when I do push ups for example then my shoulders hurt the day after..

@@ferresikkeleir51 Yea I would definitvely try with stretching the pecs and then also try some dumbell flies with a light weight really focusing on the stretch aspect. Even though you dont feel it in the pulling exercises I would still recommend also stretching the lats (I dont think dead hangs are the most effectvie stretch for the lats). I would do something where you have to reach (Here is a old video that demonstrates the lat stretch I think could be good kzbin.info/www/bejne/eovGmYeGrZyjmNE)

@@goprimate thankyou brother, time for me to fix this permanently. You got a sub and a new loyal follower. Big thanks again.

@@ferresikkeleir51 All good hope it helps man, best of luck! Thank you, appreciate it

Yess a fellow Rocky fan 😎Awesome Gabriel, they are definitively a fun way to train your midsection 💪🏽

@@goprimate I just went a couple hours ago to work with the gravity boots lol...

@@Gabriellandon Awesome man, hope it was a good workout 💪🏽

@@goprimate Of course it was!!! each time is easier and feels better!!!

@@Gabriellandon Awesome to hear that Gabriel 💪🏽😎

I would say that the reverse Australian chin-up is more similar to the hefesto and therefore you are better of focusing more on those (Since both are done a bar and therefore have the same stability) but I think pelican curls will also support you in that goal to some extent.

Thank you Lajos, appreciate hearing that

Yes there is something with the room I film in that makes it echo so might need to get a lavalier mic, thanks man appreciate it 🙏🏽

@@goprimate the voice audio sounded totally fine to me… Natural echo is essentially just reverb anyways so that’s totally OK… I was more referring to the music, drowning out your voice… Minor adjustment

Reverb presets will literally be called small room Or large room because of the way spaces echo. If ur room echos already and the mic picks that up that’s 100% acceptable. Just make sure u don’t add reverb onto ur audio through processing or presets cause then you double up on the reverb. The mic u have now sounds absolutely fine if you ask me. I have some experience with audio engineering fwiw. Most mics over 100 bucks are gonna be adequate. If u want to go crazy spend 300 on one from music store and have them advise u. Every mic has its own signature sound and an expensive one might be worse for u if it’s not being used in an ideal studio if that makes any sense. Just adjust ur audio levels and keep the mic long story short. Sorry for the advice, maybe u don’t want or need it lol, my bad if that’s the case. I’ve experimented a ton in my own studio making music over the years doing all the Audio mixing myself…trial and error baby! lol.

@@goprimate shoot me a message If u want to discuss ur setup. I’ll get you dialed in on a budget for damn sure OR I’ll tell you what you need to get if you want to go crazy with a super official setup…would be happy to help brotha. Audio stuff CAN be a headache, not always but every setup is unique.

Stupid analogy I just thought of with how people buy really nice microphones and use them with equipment that’s not even able to take advantage of that microphone is essentially like putting a V 12 turbo engine into a 1999 Honda Civic… Sure the car will function however the rest of the car is just not built to deal with all that power and torque. Def don’t spend more than 125 if ur not running a quality audio interface that’s then routed into your computer. 50 bucks is cool if u want one that plugs directly into ur computer. If ur using a Mac, their built in mic is dope, no need to buy a mic that plugs directly into a Mac, a 50 dollar one will probly be worse ANYWAYS. Hopefully the novel I just wrote helps brotha. Ur videos are dope.

🙏🏽

Well depends on what you are after but I would say option 3 is probably my prefered option: Active hang to failure followed by a dead hang to failure (If you dont have any issues in your shoulders for deadhangs) Hope that gave some clarification 💪🏽

@@goprimate thanks!

@@Tnwee3at My pleasure!

Those are some good numbers man, well done!💪🏽

Glad to hear you found what you where looking for Eric 💪🏽

@@goprimate Appreciate the response, brother. Keep up the good work.

I would not worry about it Ahmed, if you do a lot of something your body will become efficient in that specific thing. There is no golden line to what a good balance is, you sound pretty fit and I would just recommend you train what interest you the most and what you get the most satisfaction out of. I would personally work more on dips especially if you can do 50 push-ups in a row (Even 30 is plenty). Maybe give decline push-ups a go to mix things up a bit, I will link a video for you here kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJ-4Zop4q6amjM0

@@goprimate thank you sir for your time and suggestions 🙏

@@AhmedHachemi-p8l My pleasure, good luck Ahmed 💪🏽

@@gabrielbevan-rt5yl Good question Gabriel. Yea you can do that for sure, if you shrug in a inverted row position then you will use the mid traps more than the upper traps. I think the lats might get tired before the traps if you shrug in a tuck front lever position though unless you adjust the angle. Shrugging on monkey bars sounds more effective for the traps vs a tuck fl position 👍🏽Here is a version of a inverted row shrug that will hit somewhat of the upper traps as well kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqTaZGevj8SSg9E

No it wont unless you stand on it the other way around leading to a calf stretch, so in that version you would just stand on it without doing squats

@@goprimate Ahaa awesome, keep it up 🤙

@@ahmad88998 Thanks Ahmad 👊🏽

Thanks Maximus, yes I remember you told me about it 💪🏽

Thanks man, appreciate hearing that 🙏🏽❤

@@goprimate You deserve it brother ❤️

@@gabrielbevan-rt5yl Good question Gabriel! Yea that sounds like a version of a bodyweight tricep extension, I would not say it is harmful. It might be good to warm up your elbows before that or regress the exercise into a bit easier if you feel some discomfort in your elbows. Give it a try and see how it feels 💪🏽

@@gabrielbevan-rt5yl Great pointers Gabriel! 💪🏽

Glad you found it helpful!

Glad to hear you found it helpful 👊🏽💪🏽

It depends on the individual though but I would guess that becasue it is the most balanced grip and quite natural for the joints making it easier for the body to produce force. I honestly dont know any better than that, could be something else as well. But if you only practice supinated chins then your supinated grip will most likely be the stronger grip

Agreed Grayson! 💪🏽

Yea that could depend on a lot of things. I would check of the following boxes: - Stretch & strengthen the glutes - Strengthen the hamstrings with Hip hinge exercises and get a good stretch at the bottom position. - Do hip hinge exercises with internal hip rotation (Ex: romanian deadlifts with a foam roller squeezed in between your legs. This will give you internal rotation of the hips which can help you get into that position) - Fix your anterior pelvic tilt (If you have one) And some random things that work for some people for some reason: - Release your diaphragm - Roll a trigger point ball/lacrosse ball under your foot (Also a random thing that can work). I would try those things and see if you get any improvement in your hamstring flexibility. You can also try just the basic PNF stretching for your hamstrings with a ressistance band which could potentially help as well. It might also be the calfes that are tight so stretching them with a slant board for example can give you the extra bit of range of motion you need for pike push-ups. Good luck!

@@goprimatethank you

Well said Judi! Thanks, appreciate it 🙏🏽

Glad to hear that, appreciate you watching 🙏🏽

Yea its surprisingly effective for the quads, awesome that you gave them a go💪🏽

Appreciate hearing that, thanks Bensam 💪🏽

Hard to say, its a from Dinox a finnish brand. I think cause its not super thick and its quite long as well

Haha yea the nature is beautiful in Finland 🌲

Appreciate you taking the time of your day to write that, thanks Jan 💪🏽🙏🏽

Probably due to what equipment people have available to them, also with rings you can target the shoulder a bit differently due to the angle (In the Y flies for example)

@@goprimate I hadn't thought about y raises with rings, cool stuff

@@agame-jv6zv Yea give it a go, same goes for reverse flies (Different strength curve which traines the rear delt slightly in a different way) 💪🏽

Thanks man, really appreciate hearing that 👊🏽🙏🏽
