Is spamming dips and pull-ups every single day good or bad for gains? Is over training a meme or a real thing?
I'm recently laid off my work and I got nothing to do and I have this huge amount of energy and now is a good opportunity to do something about my skinnyfat body.

It doesnt matter because you'll never put in the work. If you really wanted it, you'd already be lifting and not worried about some arbitrary timeline.
If someone does tell you a timeframe you find acceptable, you'll go the gym then quit in a few months when you see no progress and then go back to making "how to achieve" threads with a pic of Gooky the anime character waiting for someone to "redpill" you on how to get jacked without doing anything. loser

Overtraining is real and not good at all. You are more likely to get sick, develop a injury or simply not progress optimally. As a beginner you can probably get away with resting for only a single day, but some muscles will often need 48h to 72h rest depending on routine, diet and sleep quality. If you ever start feeling sick, heavily fatigued or one of your joints keep hurting from one session to another, then maybe it's time to add an extra rest day or up your calories intake.

you'll probably get better at pushups and pullups doing them every day. but if your goal is to build strength/muscle mass, every other day is best. for the boredom you can mix in stuff like cardio, ab work, sports on the rest days

also if you're only doing pushups + pullups check out a beginner bodyweight routine. it's ideal to have one horizontal push/pull and one vertical push/pull. so like
>dips (vertical push)
>pullups (vertical pull)
>pushups (horizontal push)
>rows (horizontal pull)

I've already put in some work. When I first started doing some calisthenics, I couldn't do a single chin up. A few years ago I did 8 pull-ups with 15kg added weight while weighing 85kg myself. Faggot

What I'm asking is it better to have an actual workout split or will spamming calisthenics everyday be more efficient or not?

What kind of gains??? I'd imagine after a certain point you only really gain muscular endurance and not size.

You may get tendonitis.

I hate dips, been doing the same amount for 6 months. Gives me a lot of wrist and shoulder/traps pain and stiffness.

>>dips (vertical push)
dips are a HORIZONTAL push
pike pushups are a VERTICAL push

They are but they use the same muscles that horizontal push like push ups use. You need push above your head to train shoulders more and no pecs.
