how much can you preserve muscle mass with just calisthenics and enough food? or will muscles wither away without stimulus from a barbell?

You'll need to to more reps in order to get challenging enough sets with less weight. That's all.

how do i do linear progression on pushups if i cant increase reps per set?

add weight on your back

>a week
I haven't had sex in almost 5 years

As long as the set is hard, it doesn't matter much how many reps you do in that set. What really matters is the number of sets you do in a workout.

Have a child. They will, without fail, crawl on your back as soon as you lay on the floor. Do pushups. Repeat for 18 years until they leave the house. Enjoy your gains

that's linear progression and parenthood in one stone, smart!

23 years going on strong.

bump

i guess the planche progressions.
so like tuck planche pushup (kind of like dips)
then advanced tuck where you knees are kind of out behind you.
then straddle planche with legs out bu to the side.
then finally a full planche. Doing pushups with those is killer. I've seen guys on youtiube test their max bench with that and they're pushing 275 from training planche pushups.

Muscles only deteriorate when you stop using them.

If you use your muscles, they maintain relative size.
It's not like you're going to lose 2 inches off your bicep in a few months if you're still doing workouts.

Hell my dad was a professional body builder before he had me and he stayed huge well into his fifties with next to no working out.

I reached 2.5 pl8 bench roughly and stopped working out for almost a year once because of work and travel. It only took me two months to get back to that once I got back in a gym.

People act like your muscles just vanish after a week or two of not using them, it takes years to lose serious muscle mass.

Most fucking expensive home gym in existence.

Lost my virginity at 26

Religion is a cope for virgins, they fail to attract a mate so they say its cause they are saving themselves for marriage which won't come

you wanna help me lose my virginity? ;)

KEK. I can hear the copypasta in my head.

I haven't lost my virginity and I'm a girl. Get on my level.

It feels like they vanish though.

ok, i love you, sweetie

heh, almost 9 here, get on my level

Based and true, hit a set with my 3 year old on my back earlier. Added benefit is he watches me exercise and tries to do pushups and leg raises.

Make sure you're actually doing correct pushups.

And I see that you'll never be

Adjust rest in between sets, reps and sets. Use different push-up variations.

this. How does one go about meeting women at 23 with no prior experience?

semen retention and get Yas Forums. And learn how to attract women, TheRedPill on reddit helps with that.

No, actually I found my oneitis. Problem is she suffers from diagnosed super high anxiety. She's a virgin (bring on the stale "virgin" jokes boys, I've heard them 1,000 times) but because of that, sex has been a threshold her anxiety has made impossible to cross. We're also in a long-distance relationship and she lives with her sister (she refuses to do anything sexual when her sister is there, which she always is.) So it becomes a perfect storm where we have maybe 2 or so times a month where sex would even be possible.

Fucking kill me. If you have any advice I would gladly hear it.

You should marry her, problem solved

>Age 9
>>sweetie can you get in here?
>>ugghh ok
My 9 year old still loves being on my back, without fail. As soon as a horse hits that fucker's mind I'm being asked to play horse.
