Calisthenics Progression#

[DRAFT OUTLINE — Claude]

Planned coverage:

Relative strength - why bodyweight work is a strength-to-mass problem
Leverage as the loading variable, and how progressions actually work
The straight-arm problem - why planche and lever work punishes tendons
Progression models - adding reps, adding leverage, adding time under tension
Skill work vs strength work, and why they need separate sessions
Joint preparation and the connective tissue timeline
Where bodyweight training stops being enough

Cardiovascular Progression#

[DRAFT OUTLINE — Claude]

Planned coverage:

Intensity distribution - the case for polarised training
Building the base before building the top
Zones - what they actually measure and how to set them honestly
Threshold work - what it moves and what it does not
Progressing volume without progressing injury
Economy as a trainable quality separate from fitness
Detraining - what fades first and how fast

Strength

Strength Progression#

[DRAFT OUTLINE — Claude]

Planned coverage:

Linear progression and why it always ends
Periodisation models - block, undulating, conjugate
Autoregulation - RPE, reps in reserve, and velocity
Specificity of the pattern, and how wide strength transfers
Deloads - when they are needed and when they are superstition
Frequency vs volume vs intensity as competing levers
Testing without wrecking the block

Hypertrophy & Physique

Hypertrophy and Physique#

[DRAFT OUTLINE — Claude]

Planned coverage:

Volume landmarks - minimum effective, maximum adaptive, maximum recoverable
Proximity to failure and how to judge it
Exercise selection and training at long muscle lengths
Energy balance - why a surplus helps and how large it needs to be
Protein intake, distribution and the evidence for each
Recomposition - when it works and when it is wishful
Managing hypertrophy work alongside endurance training
