By calisthenics I imply your basic calisthenic movements in your typical 6-12 rep hypertrophy range. Calisthenics alone are a meme, you want WEIGTHED calisthenics.
>weighted ring dips (to tire out the triceps which is weaker than the pectorals) >weighted ring bulgarian dips (to tire out the pectorals, isolates them) >weighted pullups (to tire out the brachioradialis which is weaker than the biceps) >weighted towel pullups (to hit the forearms, biceps and to tire out your lats and other upperback muscles)
These exercises hit most of your upperbody, you don't really need anything else.
perform "not doing roids" to failure 3x a week
don't egolift squats. also don't roid and you shouldn't have an issue
>to failure
You would never come close to lifting as much as Ronnie so don't worry about it. No roids will help you reach him.
Don’t be retarded and keep on snapping your back and not following your surgeon’s directions
The big 4. Any respectable doctor or physiotherapist recommends squats and deadlifts.
What are the other two?
the big 2
Then why did you say the big 4.
because there are 4 of them. 2 of which are squats and deadlifts
Oh I see. Excuse my retardedness
what do you mean?
the big 2 are a superset of the big 4
My brother in Christ you have been on SwoleShack so long that subsets seem like supersets to you
it's too late for me isn't it
Pretty sure Ronnie was repping 900lb deadlifts or some shit to fuck up his spine. I don't think that's gonna be a problem for you.
Take trt and aromatase while stickijg to calisthenics avoid tren and meme lift like deadlift or squat with heavy weight
>don't roid
>don't squat/DL/OHP/whatever compressed your spine
>weighted calisthenics (dips, pullups)
> calisthenics
Would I look like I lift (from a layman POV) and preserve muslces into my old age?
If so, Calisthenics sounds better than Powerlifting.

Forgot to add weighted hanging leg raises for abs/core. For forearms you can also use heavy duty handgrippers.
neutral grip pull-ups, OHP, front squats, RDL
