Hello Jack,

Currently have no gym access due to staying in an isolated area for the next 6 weeks. Any idea on a solid calisthenics protocol (there’s an area with dip and pull up bars near me) to maintain or even build some strength and mass when I’m up here?

Thank you man!

Hey Jack!

Last month I asked about the Elite Gas Tank Protocol—specifically, I mentioned being able to hold ~700 watts but feeling completely wrecked afterward (nausea, lying down during rest), even though my heart rate stayed around 170 bpm and didn’t hit my usual max. You suggested the limiter might be muscular endurance or power rather than heart/lung output.

New question for June:

Do you have an example of how to structure a repeat-style session on the assault bike or rower to address that kind of limitation? (Interval duration, rest periods, sets/reps?) Also, how should I progress these sessions over time, and how do I know when I'm ready to transition back to the full Elite Gas Tank Protocol?
