How you'd program push-ups and pull-ups for someone who used to be proficient in doing them (ie worked up to doing weighted push-ups and pull-ups), but has completely neglected doing them past few years?

Alexander Egebak:
What are your preferences for alternative exercise selection if someone is unable to perform weighted push-ups? Bench press, dips, tuck planche push-ups?

Mitchell Howley:
What are your thoughts on how best to structure double (or multiple) sessions of training in a day? I find skill work and lower body mobility work in the early afternoon tend to energize me for upperbody strength work in the evening.

Maximiliano Santiago:
As someone who needs to lose a lot of weight (20 lbs) and is still a beginner (technically, back into the gym after a multi-year break) how should I approach training in the first months of training so as avoid overdoing it or unnecessarily stop myself from increasing intensity and/or volume?

Jakub Kowalski:
Do you belive in Tuck Front Lever Rows? They are problematic when it comes to ROM and positioning of the body - you can have more or less ROM each session or more or less tuck. Would you rather use some type of Barbell Row or maybe progress the body lean on Bodyweight Arc Rows?

How is Yaad's back?

Jonathan Jessop:
Could you recommend safe ways to increase strength and size in the neck? I used to train frequently with a neck harness (made by Ironmind) but I stopped because of concerns I have over the potential long-term harm it could cause the cervical vertebrae.

Christopher Nowak:
Do you plan on providing any nutritional guidance for fat loss or muscle gain?

Gregor Baer:
I was wondering why there is such a big discrepancy between bodybuilding and bodyweightfitness in terms of research or scientific information. Obviously, scientific concepts from powerlifting and bodybuilding apply almost the same way in terms of building muscle or strength, but the calisthenics/gymnastics/bodyweightfitness community doesn't seem to have the same amount of people offering research-based advice, as far as I have seen personally.
When I'm thinking of science-based approach, people like Brad Schoenfeld, Mike Israetel, or Eric Helms come to mind, but in bodyweightfitness I can think of none (even though there are many that produce good content).

Yaad, what are the top 3 things you have improve/learn by training under Joshua.

Many moons ago i came across this forum post: https://www.gymnasticbodies.com/forum/topic/9580-perfect-workout-nutrition-2013/#entry92263 while looking for nutrition information as it pertained to bodyweight fitness and weightlifting. I understand that this was primarily geared towards gymnasts and bodyweight fitness practitioners, but is it applicable to someone who primarily focuses on strength training/powerlifting? Is the information Joshua provided still relevant 5 years ago or has research made strides that would call for an update. Looking back now, is there anything Joshua would change about what he wrote with the knowledge and experience he's gained since then, especially after finishing medical school?
