Building Muscle w/ Calisthenics #7, Muscle "Isolation" and Working the Upper Chest

Building muscle with calisthenics is just like regular bodybuilding. You still may want to deploy a set of suspension straps so you can work classic "isolation exercises" like bicep curls and chest flys. However, classic bodybuilding techniques that work areas like the lateral shoulder and upper chest are not necessary and can even hold you back if you focus too much on trying to do so.

Todays' Micro Workout:

1) Warm up with some static isometric holds in the squat, push, or pull chain with the technique of your choice.

2) Perform 3 sets of 8-12 reps of dips, pull-ups and split squat variations that appropriate for your strength level. Use enough resistance to bring your muscles to a high state of fatigue by the end of the third set. If you're doing multiple exercises, do them in a circuit format.

3) Finish with suspension biceps curls, triceps extensions and sissy squats for 1-2 sts of 15-20 reps.
