I’m a fan of Hybrid Calisthenics. He’s very wholesome and encouraging/non-bro, always has recommendations for beginners or where to start if you can’t do the exercise he’s demonstrating, and calisthenics are mostly free. Most you should have to buy is a pull up bar or some gymnast rings. I like it a lot.

if you’re into calisthenics, fitnessFAQs and calisthenicmovement are both phenomenal, and for overall fitness advice, you can’t go wrong with athlean-x

saw an athlean X video where he programmed 80%of 1rm squats for 10x10 with one minute rests between sets, which is the most insane thing I’ve ever heard, and now it’s hard to trust he knows what he’s doing. sure most of it is better than that though.

decided to sack my programme off this morning and tried a single set of ten with 80% and just barely fucking scraped the last couple, took 6 minutes before I could bring myself to do my normal sets. absolute fucking madness.

he was actually a trainer/physio for professional baseball teams but also has some crazy stuff. I feel like that sort of thing is for when you’re very fit and boredom pops in. I used to do a bunch of situp variations and got bored of situps because i could do too many.

Gonna +1 Alan Thrall, his channel contains a pretty thorough synopsis of Starting Strength and is how I got my deadlift from 185 to 325 before COVID.

yea, he’s one of those creators who posts for the algorithm to make his money. he still has some decent form guides though. learned how to deadlift from him.
