This just ridiculous… At first I thought I was just watching a bad break dancing video but apparently you are serious that these are chest exercises.[/quote]
Sorry but you lack understanding of these exercises. Planche, planche pushups, one hand pushups, plyo pushups… are all working the chest. Ya there is alot of core as well, but its mainly chest. Get the facts strait before posting cocky remarks.[/quote]
Planches are not a chest exercise. Especially when done with bent arms (actually more a combo of being able to exert and maintain tension throughout the body, and balance). Plyo pushups aren’t a chest exercise either when you add that hopping/ kipping motion with your legs. Granted, it looks flashier, but it isn’t harder and you certainly aren’t making your chest bear the brunt of the work.
Either way, these are not bodybuilding methods.[/quote]
Sounds like you and some others above dont know what you are talking about, or any experience with this style of exericses. So u think bodybuilding can only be done through weightlifting? These are bodweight exercises that target the chest and build muscle. Also this is bodybuilding not just conditioning… Its muscle building exercises done in sets, only its not weights being used. Once again… i will say it… the major muscle being focused on in all the exercises is the chest, and the core is worked too. Looks like alot of ignorant and unexperienced people in this forum.[/quote]
You show me one professional bodybuilder doing that then. If it’s that magical, SOMEONE on the Olympia stage HAS to be utilizing it. [/quote]
Yeah, but someone always posts some stupid Kettlebell thread. Does ANY Olympia contender use fucking kettlebells?
Give the kid a break, Akuma. It’s pretty cool that he’s busting his ass working out, albeit not strictly BBing exercises.

That’s the point. This is a bodybuilding forum. Why not keep it on topic.
Yes, Parkour can look cool. That doesn’t mean we should be discussing the most effective ways to leap off a building for pec growth.
