5. Exercise with your own body weight can quickly build a perfect body
Strength and health should is the main goal of fitness. And gymnastics can make your body as strong and powerful as possible while keeping your muscles and joints healthy and functional.
But to be honest, everyone wants to get a little bigger, and the bigger the better. Because it both boosts self-confidence and sends a message to other men that "don't mess with me" (without getting in the way of women, of course), it's an important part of prison culture.
Modern gymnastics is mainly designed to enhance endurance and aerobic capacity, but it cannot develop ultimate strength. "Old school" gymnastics will wrap large muscles in your frame in the most direct and effective way, and allow you to reach the peak of your physical fitness. Plus, "old school" gymnastics won't make you look like a bulging, misshapen gorilla suit like those modern bodybuilders who use steroids, but will leave you with a natural, healthy, perfectly proportioned figure like those of modern bodybuilders. Like the athletes who modeled for ancient Greek gods. Even today, those athletes are seen as the epitome of physical perfection.
In the era before steroids, people generallyIt is generally agreed that the most muscular and aesthetically pleasing person who ever lived wasJohn . Grimek(John Grimek). In 1939, he was named "The Perfect Man" and twice won the title of "Mr. America" (1940, 1941) - the only person in history to win the title twice. title person. His physique was intimidating, and many people still think so. Grimek is simply the ultimate example of masculinity. Unlike today's rigid bodybuilders, Grimek was also an extremely capable athlete. When posing, he would first do a handstand, then put his legs down to make a perfect bridge, and then sit down with his legs straight and doing splits. Grimek is an avid weightlifter, but he also says he primarily exercises his upper body muscles through handstand exercises. He preached the value of gymnastics, but seemed to have a small audience.
You might as well take a look next time men's gymnastics is on TV. They use their own body weight to build their big and strong physiques. Those guys have big biceps, their shoulders are like coconuts, and their lats are like wings, all by just moving their bodies against gravity. This is how people exercised in the past.
6. Exercise with your own body weight can maintain a normal body fat rate
In fact, bodybuilding will make you overeat. Forget about those big guys you see in magazines, they can't stay in shape most of the time. Only after months of almost perverse diet control were they able to take photos like that in a short season. At other times outside the season, their weight will soar - twenty to thirty kilograms or more of fat. And this is the so-called professionals. The situation is even worse for ordinary bodybuilders. The magazines they read tell them to take photos.People consume much more protein than they actually need (actually to promote nutritional supplements). As a result, bodybuilders look for every opportunity to devour large quantities of foods that promote muscle growth. However, most people don't use high doses of steroids, and normal metabolism can't convert all of the extra calories into muscle. As a result, people who seriously engage in weight training tend to suffer from overnutrition and fat accumulation.
Weight training and overeating are closely linked. Professional weightlifters believe that if you eat more before exercising, you will lift better and your muscles will grow longer. After exercising, they naturally eat more. The exact opposite is true in gymnastics exercises. If obesity and bodybuilding are best friends, then obesity and gymnastics are natural enemies. If your goal is to do bent-over barbell rows with 180 kilograms, feel free to eat as much as you want because you can still hit your goal even if you have a big belly. However, if your goal is to do one-arm pull-ups, then you cannot ignore your weight. After all, no one has become better at doing similar gymnastics moves after becoming fat. The goal of gymnastics is to learn to move your body, and the fatter you are the harder this is for you. Once you start to perform gymnastics training regularly, your subconscious mind will associate your weight with the difficulty of the training, and it will automatically adjust your appetite and diet structure. My personal experience has convinced me of this. People who do gymnastics will lose fat naturally, give it a try!
Lights out!
There will be many different types of readers of this book: some are fitness enthusiasts who want to gain some strength and muscle; while many may already be experienced bodybuilders, weight trainers or gym goers. Members, these people may just be casually browsing fitness-related books to learn a few extra techniques and methods to use in their own training-perhaps just reading them while on vacation or on the way home from the gym; Others may be enthusiasts interested in fitness and wondering how we exercise in prison.
No matter which category you fall into, I hope this book will help you understand the value of exercising with your own body weight. I am passionate about spreading this approach because I know everyone can benefit from this approach to surviving prison. To me, this book is much more than a book about fitness techniques,it is a manifesto for revolutionizing modern strength training—the Prisoner’s Manifesto.
