Great advice on the explosive portion. Move the weight fast and this will translate to quicker strength progress - something I was fortunate enough to learn from my strength coach at Uni

[@Estrategista29]

Is it also good for hypertrophy?

[@sillyme2598]

@@Estrategista29 not as good for hypertrophy though. for hypertrophy you want to focus more on tension production (going slower, more reps, TUT) and while on strength you want to to focus more on power output (explosiveness, more on technique and execution to make the lift easier)

[@mounir9899]

@@sillyme2598 why are you spreading bullshit, the muscles fibers that hypertrophy are the explosives ones, explosive training is the way to go for big muscles

[@bjeanty2452]

@@mounir9899 it is bullshit but not if you don’t have the proper mind to muscle connection (most people don’t). You have to develop a strong mind muscle connection with your late and arms before you start doing explosive reps, otherwise your form will quickly go to shit. Before doing weighted pull ups Austin did a lot of static and slow pull up work to perfect his form in the movement, so when he does explosive reps he’s recruiting all the right muscles thanks to the foundational connection he built. Most people jump into explosive training without building that foundation and end up with a shit ton of muscle imbalances. Develop proper MMC first, then move to explosive reps. Apply that philosophy with every movement.

I started weighted calisthenics about a year ago but never looked into a chain style belt. I first started out holding a 45lb plate with my thighs, which is also the best way to do weighted leg raises (windshield wipers/around the world's). I ended up using a nylon strap to better control the length of how low the plates hang. I keep them close and not low. I'm up to 6x45lb plates, had to get creative on hanging them.

[@MrDaveinnocent]

So I did this last saturday, started at 45 lbs and added 10 lbs until I got to 85 lbs total. I could only do 1 rep at 85 lbs so I started knocking down weights. I could barely do 3 bodyweight rows at the end. My lats have been sore since then although I regularly train pull ups. I'll do it again next saturday. I can't wait to be used to this and see what kind of strenght I'll get.

I couldn’t figure out why my pull ups weren’t improving even with weight. Turns out I’ve always focused on medium speed and eccentric pull ups, not explosive. In fact, I don’t train anything explosive and I really need to change that starting today.

Be explosive, make sure your grip doesn't slip, keep the elbows tight (close to each other), keep the weight as close to your body as possible to reduce swinging in the weight which one will then have to compensate for.

Here's a hack I found: Instead of a dip belt, buy a rock climbing harness and a sling. You can easily detach the weight between sets and it costs only about $10 more and you can take the harness rock climbing/mountaineering. Plus, it's a lot more comfortable and doesn't make noise like the dip belt does.
