Bodyweight Strength Philosophy – Part 3

This will be the last and third part of “Philosophy of Bodyweight Strength”. I want to talk about how the world’s fittest men train. If you look at how the world’s fittest men train, you must first decide what physical fitness is. Being physically fit is not walking on a treadmill or spending all your time in the gym bench pressing.

Going to the gym three times a week, even four times a week, will get you in shape and by gym I mean being fit enough to go to the gym and work out, for most men and women it’s all about from looking good, they actually don’t. it matters how fit they really are; and the funny thing is, most people who go to the gym will tell you that they are fit and fit.

The more people who go to the gym and work out think it’s okay to stop and eat some fast food for an exhausted body, you’ve seen it; two big macs, large fries and a diet coke, yes diet coke will help.

Really fit men and women would never eat fast food after working out, but would go out drinking at night; I can’t figure out the philosophy behind the body build; then the takedown phase.

The fit men and women you see on TV and on the covers of bodybuilding magazines are often young and the women have never had children, while men spend tons of money on supplements and many men spend money on steroids.

Moving on to bodyweight type training and the benefits of fitness and how they will make a man into a fit man or make a man into a physical disaster.

The military will get men and women in shape in record time in boot camp and these men and women win or fail, push or give up.

The military doesn’t use split routines, they don’t use one day and one day off schedules, they don’t train one body part a week, they train recruits to survive and need them to be physically fit to do that. Even today, with the fatter recruits, they continue to use the same methods, they train every day; push hard and don’t give up.

The inmates, depending on their situation and where they are in prison, depends on how and when they train, and if you look at the fittest inmates and some of the strongest inmates, you will find that they train every day, they train outside, they train in their cells. They train when and where they can.

As for the so-called prison exercise books, there are three that I’ve seen that are actually written by real inmates, not some made up by some marketing genius who would have everyone believe that inmates train like gymnasts. Inmates and some prison gangs train every day for function and violence, not appearance.

I’ve said it before, guys who train only for strength will have a problem if they ever meet someone who is physically fit.

Going back to the gym, most guys spend more time resting between sets and walking to the water fountain, which is why a typical gym session is about an hour, ten minutes of actual training, fifty minutes of rest and water. .

People have the philosophy that the more you rest the stronger you get, I have a different philosophy; the more you train, the stronger you become.

Here’s an example, P90X training, I’ve been told that P90X training is getting people in shape. I’m all for any workout that can get people moving. The workouts are long by my training standards, I like to go in and do the most in the shortest time possible.

I did a simple test to a follower of P90 X: do 100 prisoner push squats (squat push up with a push up) as fast as possible 10 minutes is good 8 minutes better and less than 5 minutes its world class movement and fit . The result, he never finished in the 10 minute time limit.

Strength is built by keeping muscles under more tension than normal, the longer the tension is on the muscle the stronger it becomes, plain and simple. But, the added benefit and this is where you need to pay attention.

The more you can do in an anaerobic state, the stronger you will become physically and mentally, when you are depleting the body and muscles of oxygen and still able to keep going, that is where true physical and mental strength is built.
