Exercising can be safe and rewarding - but stay aware! You sadly don't have to search far to look for freak gym accidents - just look it up in any search engine. However, many people go to the gym (or workout at home) for years without issue! I compare this to driving. Beginner drivers are often super nervous. However, after years, it becomes less stressful - even relaxing! And this can be good! We don't want to be stressed all the time. However, the fact NEVER changes that we're using tons of steel and explosives moving around at high speeds. It pays to stay vigilant! Of course, accidents still happen even when we're careful. However, we can reduce the chance of this happening to us with some routine actions: -Double check equipment to make sure it's secure -Warm up properly. If movement is painful, be wary! You don't want to tear anything. -Be aware of your surroundings. Especially in a gym! People are often focused on themselves. If someone is behaving erratically, consider exercising elsewhere. Have a great day everyone! Legal Notice: Consult your doctor before beginning any kind of exercise program.

I get a lot of questions asking how to train for specific skills and sports. While I love these discussions, I recommend beginners start with a full-body strength and conditioning program. This seems to apply extra to calisthenics on social media, which makes it seem like everyone and their cat can do a one-finger planche. I'd classify some of these (very impressive!) calisthenics feats as "skills" and put that in a slightly different category from things like, say, weighted dips and pull-ups. One expresses strength and the other trains it (with some crossover). The upshot from this is to make sure your body is prepared for the skills you want to train before you dive into specific skills! For example, it doesn't make much sense to train for a planche before you're decent at regular push-ups. Or work on iron cross progressions before you can do pull-ups. You'll almost certainly make more progress building up your full-body conditioning first! Incredible handstand work in the beginning by Sondre Berg - check him out! He has even crazier feats on his page. Top-tier athlete and super nice guy. https://www.youtube.com/c/sondreberg (No, I didn't actually try the thing with the pool. Maybe some day.

If exercising hurts your joints, isometrics are an effective, simple way to train your body. The lack of movement allows you to use greater pain-free force than you normally would - building more strength and muscle! Isometrics can build muscle, by the way. There's no reason they can't. The studies that show lack of hypertrophy usually have very low-intensity exercises that wouldn't build much muscle even if they were dynamic. OR they are done at such low volume that the metabolic stress required is not present. I like combining isometrics with full range of motion at lower intensity. Sometimes MUCH lower intensity if needed! However, some people are unable to do reasonably do full ROM even when heavily assisted. Start with what you can and work your way up! Take your time. Patience matched with consistency can yield great long term results! Legal Notice: Consult your doctor before beginning any kind of exercise program.

Why I drink coffee every other day! Feel free to drink coffee however you like - it's up to you! Some of you may not like it at all. However, I personally just found that I needed more and more just to feel "normal." A cup to wake up. Then 2 cups, etc. It just seemed more efficient to cycle it throughout the week. Also, I think it's beneficial to resist our urges (drink coffee) regularly. Or at least have the ability to do so.

I kept seeing ads for this product so I decided to try it out! I used to always see these products and wonder what they were actually like. So the point of this series is to scratch that itch for my past self and hopefully some of you out there! There will be a Short of this coming out soon... and then I'll take a break from reviews. This isn't supposed to be a review channel. I think my mind is just geared towards reviews during the winter months. Maybe because of the extra time indoors. I'm also releasing a book - it's the Hybrid Routine in book form with some extra information. I hope people enjoy it! Hope you all have a wonderful 2023!

Training speed and coordination can add some pizzazz to your workouts (and life!) Legal Notice: Consult a doctor or medical professional before starting an exercise program.

Most people know to start with weights they can lift and use heavier ones as they get stronger. For whatever reason, there's an idea that this somehow doesn't apply in calisthenics. It makes sense because some exercises might look cleaner or more impressive than others. For example, learning to do a proper full pushup, squat, or pullup with good form is a major milestone for some people - and that's wonderful! However, at the end of the day, those are just some of the many pushing, squatting, and pulling exercises out there! Depending on your fitness level, they might be too hard, too easy, or just right (Hmm, Goldilocks reference in a future video?). Yet, there's the stereotypical "just keep trying" mentality. Imagine if you wanted to bench 225 and just kept trying to lift that amount even if it didn't budge. (instead of just starting with a weight you can bench!) It's okay to test your strength, but spend most of your time doing variations you can do competently with good form. 5+ repetitions can be a rule of thumb, but varies depending on the exercise. For the examples above, there are also knee pushups, assisted squats, and horizontal pullups! There's an entire fitness routine based on this system linked in my bio. It's free! It goes right to the website too, so you don't need to enter your email etc. Thank you to my wife for holding the camera and tolerating my shenanigans.

You can build up to a full bridge! Just start with something you can do and work your way up (down) as you get stronger. Full Fitness Routine: www.hybridcalisthenics.com/routine Bridge Section: https://www.hybridcalisthenics.com/bridges Longer Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZoASuW8gK8 Fitness Book (Based on the web routine!): www.hybridcalisthenics.com/book The bridge helps train our overall mobility, improve posture, and strengthen the back of our body. Built up progressively, they're a fantastic exercise. 1.) Find a variation you can do. 2.) Train it once or twice a week for 2-3 sets for as many reps as you can safely do. 3.) Once you hit the "Goal Standard," you can move on to the next harder variation! The standards are given in terms of reps and sets. You can instead just hold some of these variations for time. In that case, move on whenever you feel ready to safely do so. The sets and reps and purposefully higher than one might expect to encourage people to take their time and train safely. Rushing can lead to injury! Wall Bridges - 3 Sets of 50 Straight Bridges - 3 Sets of 30 Wall Bridges - 3 Sets of 30 Incline Bridges - 2 Sets of 25 Head Bridges - 2 Sets of 25 Full Bridges - Keep working on perfecting your technique! Straighten your arms and legs a bit. Focus on being an upside-down U more than an upside-down V. Breathe evenly. This can take a long time, so learn to love this!

Unsponsored review on barefoot shoes! I know there are different brands, but I tried to use the two different "types." One scene I had to cut: These can be extra jarring if you walk a lot on concrete (sidewalks etc). Some of them come with an extra insole to help cushion this. *Unsponsored meaning I took zero money from these companies. I bought these shoes myself specifically for this review. To my knowledge, the companies don't even know I exist. I usually have a long, long description that pushes the character limits, but I'll try a shorter one this time!

If you're learning a new exercise or trying a PR on weight, you can try a few things to break past your "sticking point"* *For example, the bottom part of a bench press. Or the top part. Depends on the individual. 1.) You can use lighter weight (or an easier exercise) and hold that sticking point for time. For example, if you're trying to 1RM bench press at 315lb, you can try holding 200lb at joint angle for time. Or if you're training pull-ups and you're stuck at the middle position, you can find an easier variation (like a horizontal pullup or row) and hold that for time. Something you can hold for 20-30 seconds is a decent starting point. Increase and decrease as needed. This helps build control. This is sometimes called Yielding Isometrics. 2.) You can use a HIGHER weight than what you can lift. Push or pull on this as hard as you safely can. To use the previous bench press example, find a power rack, Smith machine, or some way to position the bar where you can reach it but you can't move. Be smart and safe with this. Then push against the bar for 6-20 seconds. It should not move much at all. If you're training pull-ups you can weigh yourself down like I show in the video and pull in the same way. If you're not able to do one arm pull-ups yet, you can simply just try this with one arm. 6-20 seconds is a reasonable place to start. This helps max out your force output but also gives you some extra time to settle in to the position. This is something called Overcoming Isometrics (some might say Pin Isometrics, but in our case, pins may not be involved, so the name might not fit). 3.) You can use a lighter weight (like method one) and just do partial reps through your trouble spot. --- This probably shouldn't be the bulk of your training, but can help you bust through certain plateaus! Personally, finding the right exercise for me was important to learning the human flag. It went from almost no progress to full flag in a few weeks. Among other things, "joint-angle specific" training can help target weak points in your movement. For example. Different muscles are often emphasized differently through a full range of motion. #hybridcalisthenics
