Sailor Venus Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Is there any carryovers from certain exercises that would help another exercises like ones I listed below or do you have to learn each and every individual exercises from scratch?Front lever - glide kipbench press - push uplat pull machine - pull uptap swings on horizontal/uneven bar - kettlebell swings and vice versapistol squats - weighted squats (or deadlifts) and vice versashoulder press - handstand push upsweighted calf raises - rebounds from round-off snap downstricep kick back - dips on parallel barsThere's a few more I want to add but can't remember what else they were. Note that I don't lift weights anymore so I forgot whats it feels like lifting weights. I still do olympic lifts on a weekly basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Nogueira Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 This is solely my opinion and I'm a novice at exercising, but I think the answer is that there's some carryover but it'll vary a lot.Every exercise has its particularities and movement patterns so you have to learn them. I think Coach said that training for a one arm chin ups increased his weighted pull up load more than training weighted pull ups. My take is that it'll vary from exercise pair to exercise pair and it'll vary from athlete to athlete and I'd go as far as saying that it'll vary in your training cycles as in sometimes, a related exercise is just what you need to break a plateau or solidify some position.For example, for me pistol squats and barbell squats are totally different in that pistol squats don't use the hamstrings much and in way it's more of a tension exercise than pure strength as a back squat so there's little transfer.
