Weighted vest training tested - 30 day transformation
I wanted to take on this challenge to see if using a weighted vest every day for 30 days could increase my pullup strength. I wanted to take on this 30 day weighted vest pullup challenge to see how it would transform my strength. I've always enjoyed calisthenics and calisthenics training, but I wanted to see if using calisthenics workouts, if i could get stronger using weighted vest training. Hope you like the video!
Have a great week guys! Cheers.

Ideally, I would want to see the comparison afterwards without the weighted vest. It would show how much he improved on an even playing field. Imagine he did 2x more because of the 25lb BW increase.

[@theadventurest4345]

normally it wont increase it much more because he isn't training the reps but he might get 2 more

[@eb_tigers0775]

[@PhdMusic03]

At least 12-15. 25 lbs extra is a lot. He has the strength. Getting to 12-15 should be easy. He almost did 6 the first day with 25 lbs. So without he could probably do 9-10.

30 days Olympic weight training would be great

[@ryanadams1893]

Hey Brendon, how you can go forward with your training depends on what your goals are. You were doing well in the strength training department but you were looking to build endurance more to beat Cam. For next time you want to be slowly increasing the amount of reps you can do on each variation of a pullup (overhand, underhand and neutral grip) as well as ring pullups and body weight rows. If you’re aiming for endurance with the vest, train for endurance. Keep up the good work guys.

[@JTGJAKE18]

Why did you not try going for the full 45lb weighted pull up? Wouldn’t it have created for greater strength gains?

[@GoalGuys]

Not Necessarily. I wanted to stick with a weight that I could confidently keep my form with training and didn't feel like I would be able to do that consistently with 45lb.

[@JTGJAKE18]

@@GoalGuys Fair. sticking with proper form would lower the likelihood of injuries. I have tried pulls ups with 40lb of weighted vest and got to 2-3 reps at my “peak” but form was sloppy and I could only complete about 2 sets before it went down hill and I wouldn’t able to do more reps. Either way keep it up the content is top tier and very inspiring.

@@GoalGuys would also love to see you try the planche. Definitely a longer term challenge especially the taller you are. But I would love to see your attempt and strategy.

At a novice to advance level strength and hypertrophy training is the same. Thinking they’re different is why people never really accomplish their long time goals. Train for performance and your aesthetic goals will come.
