A Calisthenics athlete that HAVE big legs muscles I love it. The most Calisthenics guys have some chicken legs. But Sven and Ell eggs had some powerful legs🦍

[@nishant2279]

Adam raw and dominik sky have pretty strong legs too

[@renanstxr]

Matt Mohawk Very true! But take a look on Daniel,Irvin Stpike

[@viciousandchaotic]

FitnessFAQs has gorgeous legs too.

[@rotanux]

@@viciousandchaotic Daniel legs are much underdeveloped compared to his upper body tbh, these guys are more balanced imo

[@KFahadNazeer]

Those who perform Pistol Squats as frequently as they do Planche , Levers and Pull up variations......they have strong legs as well!

[@JJones-nf9ce]

[@v2maurya]

You did the first exercise in one of your stretching videos. At that time my reaction was "that looks easy", but when I did, I was like " I spoke too soon". Hearing the same thing from you made my day. Thnx for the video.

As always, great video: useful content, detailed explanation, even more detailed demonstration, and no ego. You guys are my first reference for calisthenics.

[@Maeusth]

When I was a kid I loved doing L-Sit, I didn't even know it was an exercise. I just did it for fun.

[@syrm7_959]

Me too but for not even a second xD

All this talk of kipping pullups, but my guy, have you seen kipping *dips* ?!

[@ceili]

Alex, your V sit is stupendous! Have you considered doing a tutorial on it. I would love to see it

[@TasosZagos]

Dat lighting tho 😮

[@Tiffers963Hz]

I don't get it.

[@EranAmir]

Holy moly! Production value on your videos just went through the roof!! Pleasure to watch.

[@burneyvisser]

I'm 59 trained weights all my life but opening my mind to your great channel is fantastic for me..cheers Alex

[@KitLaughlin]

Excellent tutorial and well illustrated. That seated leg lift is a hugely under-rated exercise in my view, and it activates rectus femoris in its shortest position-so expect some major cramping! But your straight leg strength will improve dramatically with its use. I will be doing some this morning.

[@baileyetcetera8296]

Kit Laughlin Was looking for someone to discuss cramping when doing straight leg lifts! How long does it take for the cramping to go away? I can do one leg at a time with no cramping but not two. Feel like I could do the L-sit if I could get past this. Any suggestions?

[@KitLaughlin]

All the gymnastic coaches I know say the same thing: once you've cramped enough times, it will go away. My friend Emmet Louis recommends trying to get the cramp to intensify; I am sure that will work if you can take the pain! Please let us know how you go.

[@baileyetcetera8296]

Kit Laughlin Will do!

[@harshwardhanprasad4703]

This is by far the best calisthenics channel on KZbin...never seen better

[@sandrabooth6997]

Wow, you exercise the movements so beautifully :-)

[@ZhuGeLiang6969]

holy sh1*... i do both of those regularly, not bcoz i know it is good... but part of my routine to build my pike press to handstand skill.. i only thought it is a compression training for easier/ stronger start for the pikepress.. thx for the detail in this training use..

[@vernedudeman]

Y'all are #1 in the game, I'm grateful to you guys for sharing the knowledge. Much love homies!!

[@Gadzinisko]

I learn so much from every video you post.

[@pruthvikumarhegde2660]

[@εεσ-ψ5ο]

You've shown me the right position -active- for the shoulderblades in order to do the right pull up! Then i see this...! Thank you very much guys! Bravo!

[@MrUseless247]

I usually hate KZbin recommendations, but this was a nice little surprise. I gotta try this. I've been trying to work body weight exercises into my workouts, but alot of channels mostly show free weights or cable lifting.

[@teohanping]

Agreed. Especially on seated leg raise. Tough as hell

[@KidKrazz81]

Your video's have been awesome so far of what I've been researching on how to better my workouts. Thank you so much for the time put in and helping other's build a better body and understand how!

[@ShahabsBJJLog]

I have a PR Squat of 255 KGs (562 lbs) and I approve this message. My straight leg strength is pathetic. This video is very helpful, thank you.

[@Fitand50Formula]

Tried the seated leg lift I think it will really help out with the tightness in my hamstrings

[@TheNagualZone]

The geezer in the vid is a frickin animal! amazing control!

[@glennboe2008]

I tried the seated leg lift today after watching this video. I had no chance to lift my legs with perfect form as described in the video. What helped me was to use a rubber band around my legs so i could maintain a perfect form. Love your channel! Greetings from Norway

[@Dany-ik1id]

I think your advice. Leg raises helps me to get good hip mobility and it feels nice.

Musculus rectus femoris is the main muscle to rise the legs with bent knees, and only up to 90° (hip hight). The muscle to rise the legs with straight knees and higher than the hips is Musculus iliopsoas

[@victorassessing7]

Thanks for adding this bio on your IG profile. Great Vid and tutorial. so far the best no gimmicks 👏🏿

[@TR-ul4rm]

3 questions calimovent 1.-when it comes to the seated Pike lift what's the difference when doing the exercise with back straight and rounded back ? 2.- what's the scapula activation for toes to bar? Retracted or just a dead hang? 3.- I don't know if people tell you this often but what's up with your Planche? I notice that there is a but of bent on the elbows instead of going out you have them going in xd Anyways great vide, good quality as always :)

[@calimove]

1. Rounded back will also work on your spine mobility. 2. Slighlty Depressed Scapula 3. We aim for an extenend but not overextened elbow.

[@TR-ul4rm]

Calisthenicmovement thanks for the feedback I'm a bit curious when you say you aim for an extended elbow instead of over extended, what does that mean?

[@eleggs]

We want to avoid to extend the elbow to 100%, but instead keep it as close as possible to 99% extension.

[@TR-ul4rm]

El Eggs oo ok

[@SuperWagner23]

Very detailed instructions which is nice.

[@StayActiveIgnas]

This is one of my favourite exercises it's very helpful for training L-sit....

In which parallel universe i have that mobility?

[@mrnaizguy]

OMG master In this one couple months from now when you start to work on it today

[@omgmaster9985]

mrnaizguy I don't know where 'm wrong. I crack myself almost daily on stretching, but 0 results in hamstrings. Any suggestions? I can't get over it

[@GioGhirardi]

this exercise has helped me with hip flexibility =)

[@980Mohid]

I used to do stiff leg deficit deadlifts back when I trained in gym and that built my hamstrings flexibility. You can try it too although I wouldn't recommend it as it's not very lower back friendly.

[@jae-2403]

That V-sit is sooo good

[@nofus1337]

[@boorayin2773]

I'd suspect you'd recommend adding these WAY-harder-than-they-look exercises to every ab workout. Question: what's your philosophy on how often one can train abs, please?
