Crow Pose VS. Crane Pose

Strength development has been well researched, documented and tested. Very little is left to the imagination and generally speaking we know exactly how to go from being weak to being strong. To simplify hard work, nutrition and rest will allow your body to get stronger. Your body neither knows nor cares where the strength stimuli is coming from. It does not matter if you are pushing your body weight, dumbbells or a car. This episode is an exploration of how I've spend my life building strength with calisthenics, gymnastics based and bodyweight only exercises. I discuss how you can build true strength using calisthenics, how to adjust traditional weight lifting protocols to suit your style of training and what kind changes you can make to your training to maximize your gains.Coach Bachmann Social & WebsiteInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachbachmannFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/thecoachbachmannPinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/CoachBachmann/Website: https://coachbachmann.com

Whilst you most likely won't see instant results I challenge you to trust me on this one and invest 3 month of your life. I promise you, the results will leave you stunned!
