Workout doubts
Hi everyone! my name is Axel, I'm from Argentina but living in Spain, I've found you in Youtube looking for some calisthenics simple but effectives workout, and the idea of getting stronger and fit with only 2 exercises, it's amazing ... so I watched the videos and the courses, but I have a question making the workout plan. First of all, I'm 32, I have experience with gym and some calisthenics movements, I can do 15 pull ups max, and 15 dips on rings max ... push ups I can do >20 , actually I'm doing weighed push ups with 15kg on the rings, and i know how to do handstand and strict handstand pushup(7-8 reps) but facing the wall. No muscle up yet, but I can do it with a band on the rings. I want to workout 3 times a week and I have 1 hour and a half top(including warmup), and my main focus is on upper body. I'm stronger in push than pull. How can I organize this to create a workout? Watching the videos and the courses, I was thinking something like this: -Drop Set Pull ups -EMOM 20 minutes - dips(6 to 8 reps) -EMOM 20 minutes - handstand push ups(6 to 8 reps) I don't know yet if I will be capable of doing the 20 minutes emom for handstand after the dips emom, but if I'm in the middle of the EMOM and I can't maintain the 6-8 reps, can I keep going with less reps than that ? or should i stop ? And another question, is about the range of the movement for the dip .. in the pictures and youtube, it's not a full range for the dips, is that on purpose ? Sorry for my English if I didn't write or express myself correctly 🙏 Thank you so much in advance! and thank you for all the information that you provide and the people who help you keep this growing! Congrats!

I'm surprised no one has responded yet, but I am new to calisthenics so the best advice I can give is to follow daemons free training plan (the pinned comment on this community), or do outside research, keep at it!
3 min rest for 1 dip negative?
Hi! I'm working on my ring dips, and I'm currently doing negatives, on the training plan it says 3 minute rest minimum for maximum of 1 dip negative? That seems excessive, since today I was doing 5 (not the best form) negatives with 90s rest. Should I focus on control and increase rest? As I still can't do more than 1 actual dip on the rings. ~ I was also thinking of doing the negatives as grease the groove, then altering my push workout. Please let me know your thoughts, T.I.A!

Pulls Ups
how long did it take each one of you to accomplish a pull up? I'd like to know

I am only just starting but have been accidentally been doing grease the groove since I was 13 (random pull ups when I was bored) then a couple months ago I started the gym for a month then quit. I can do 10/11 pull ups atm, or about 8/9 clean.

Btw when I first got my pull up bar, I could only do a jumping chin up.
Unable to do Dips on gymnastic rings
I can do 11 Pullups max, I did 50 pushups emom, 10 reps each time. But I can barely do 1 dip on gymnastic rings (I don't have access to dip bars). Is this a strength thing, an instability thing or what? I feel I should be able to do at least a couple lol. I'm new to working out btw.
