You will never get bigger with body weight workouts. Don't get me wrong, those are GREAT movements but you can only get bigger by loading up a barbell and squatting, pressing, dead lifting, cleaning, and snatching.
Isolating and using different muscle groups to different degrees. If adding size is the game, then adding weight becomes the necessity.I'm not expert but I think that doing things like biceps curls with a barbell or doing chin ups with your body weight is the same thing.
After every set, Sylvain adds weight by stuffing his pockets with Oreo cookies.Isolating and using different muscle groups to different degrees. If adding size is the game, then adding weight becomes the necessity.

Haven't heard this before. Have an case examples to share? With the added vitamin D I can see where there would be a significant difference between 2% and whole even.
Yes, I am an "at large" trainer for Indyshield CrossFit since 2010, meaning that I am a regular patrol officer but on my off-time I help train at the gym. I had plateaued in strength with strict CrossFit and in December 2012 I decided that in 2013 I would focus on on changing that. I did about 9 months of 5/3/1 powerlifting and then transitioned to Catalyst Athletics programming for weightlifting. That is what I am currently doing.Don't you have/run/work with a local crossfit gym Denny?

We had about a dozen guys do this in our gym. It was tough, wear gloves.
