Just wanted to say, since I started implementing K Boges method of daily calisthenics, i've been getting more compliments on my body than usual (from both dudes and girls). Before that, I was lifting religiously but aside from the casual "you look bulkier" I got virtually nothing. May this personal account serve as a testament of what simple calisthenics can do to your body...

40 crisp push ups! You maintain such excellent form with every rep. I try to model my pushups after yours and still have a way to go. I did 27 push ups to test my max but definitely felt my form get sloppier by the 22 rep mark. Thanks for the great video, K boges!

[@Kboges]

Thank you, Michael! 27 is NO JOKE so well done! I think the average fitness enthusiasts dismisses push ups, but I honestly find them to be the most difficult thing I do. A really hard set is taxing physically and mentally, as you try to keep it all together while fatigue sets in. I find they take incredibly focus to do well. I love 'em. Keep at it dude and you will be in the 40's before you know it.

[@conormckenna25]

Wow, that physique with the leg raises. Goals!! Well done and great video

[@Kboges]

Thanks, Conor! 🙏

[@romisthenics]

Hanging leg raises and L Sit pull-ups are the GOAT. I dead bar hang in some fashion every single day. Alternating a hanging day with my pull-ups. I’ll work on single hand dead hangs and hanging leg raises or Hanging L Sits. As a very tall guy with trouble growing lats, hanging everyday to some degree has benefited big for development and I could hold myself on a bar forever now. Literal minutes. Even with one hand I can go 30 plus seconds if I really push. All at 6’ 4” 220 pounds. Hanging leg raises and hanging will change your life. Unstoppable core and grip and huge underground lat grower.

[@derekhines1078]

What’s up, Kyle!? Been on the beach and in the water all day with the fam so I’m late to this. Yep, focus on the basics and throw in a little extra. I’ve gotten into the groove of getting the basics in for 30 minutes then I give myself permission to pick something else for an additional 10- 15 minutes. That might be crawls, or isometric holds, ab work, or accessories. No rules there after making the basics the priority. Love the content! Keep rolling!

[@Kboges]

Hey Derek! I love that approach. I do it almost exactly the same way; I have my basics I always hit, and after that I’ll dedicate a few sets to the weak points. Thanks for all you do in the community, brother! Your advice is always so helpful in there. Much appreciated!🙏

[@Fr0gSplashh]

"Starting out you don't have to worry about the details." Yes. This is the one message I'm always trying to get through to people. I see so many people watching hours of content and being intimated and / or scared because "this might not be optimal" or "but isn't that less effective than this other thing ?" or "but am I supposed to do all this ? I'm not sure I have enough time." If you are a beginner, just do. Stop overthinking and watching and reading. Right now stop reading this comment, get down on the ground and do 5 pushups. Do stuff. Just do. And later once you're starting to feel strong and you're hooked on exercising, start thinking. But please just do something first. Just do. Become someone who works out first. Make it a part of yourself. That is the most important thing.

Somehow this channel manages to answer all my questions without asking! In my case, my kats are lagging, I'm still experimenting to find out which exercises work best. Thank you, keep up the great work!

[@Kboges]

Play around with ALL the variables to find a movement that connects. I remember the first time I did wide grip, arched back, paused rep pull ups, my lats contracted so hard I actually got a cramp in them. This sort of immediate feedback can give you some great clues to follow.

[@iker8010]

​@@Kbogesyep, regular variations of pull ups will give you wings for lats. Nothing like hitting the muscle regularly from different angles

[@j.m.b5441]

@@iker8010 I'll definitely try that! Thanks

[@DAK.512]

What I do to improve mind-muscle connection with my lats is focus on one rep. Start at a dead hang, pack your shoulders, then pull yourself all the way up and squeeze everything down and back as hard as you can, for as long as you can. Then lower yourself down slow and steady to really get everything out of the negative. This has helped me tremendously with ensuring my lats are being targeted during pull ups. It starts to become second nature after awhile.

[@vlad_work5617]

Hey man, really big fan of your channel. You are definitely one of the non commercial high value individuals on youtube. So I have Tendinopathy for a long time now. Patellar and elbows. For elbows I found out that training your forearms seems to do the trick most of the times. I use a towel, roll it and then I wet it with water. You want to get a good grips and than kinda twist the towel. You do eccentric concentric and isolation and you feel your forearms burning like crazy. And for patellar I do mostly spanish holds with a resistance band. As well as hip, knee and ankle mobility. I do martial arts, kung fu precisely, thats where I got my pattelar tendonitis from. Saw your video about the horse stance, which is from shaolin kung fu, called Ma Bu. Well I wanted your insights on this type of recovery workout I am doing. And if you have anything else you recommend. I've been doing this for about 2 weeks now. Thank you for your time, have a great day.

[@Kboges]

Thank you so much for the kind words! This sounds like you are on the right path. I have found eccentrics and isometrics really useful for tendon issues in the past. What type of Kung Fu do you study?

[@vlad_work5617]

@@Kboges Thank you for the response. I do with both weapons and without. For weapons I practice Shaolin style with the Gun (Chinese for bo staff or stick). And with bare hands I do northern fist style, TaiChi and TaiYi. As well as fighting with partners. It's really fun but unfortunately I got patellar tendonitis due to the competition season. Now I'm on recovery hoping to be able to compete again next year, I'm not trying to rush things. Really curios if you ever tried any time of marital art! Have a great day

[@Kboges]

@@vlad_work5617 Ah that's awesome! I'm a big fan of traditional Chinese martial arts. I trained a style derived from Shaolin as a kid, and it gave me such an amazing athletics base. I think a formalized general movement practice is something missing from modern combat sports. I know traditional form/kata work is often dismissed and criticized by combat athletes who see it as "an imaginary fight" but I think it is I completely missing the point, which is that it is incredible attribute training, general preparation, mental training, etc. You can see many modern combat athletes intuitively understanding that they are missing this, as they start to incorporate "movement" training back into their routines. Pretty cool stuff, if you ask me! I think there is a lot of wisdom in these old traditions. I also trained Yang and Chen styles of Taijiquan, and Chen style has been the basis of my standing grappling for Sanda training. I've done a good amount of Judo and BJJ too, but I really appreciate the approach of Chinese martial arts- attribute training first, let the technique come from that. The Judo approach is practice techniques first, let the attributes develop. Two different ways up to the top of the mountain, so they arrive at the same point, but just take a very different approach.

It's said that wushu will join the 2026 Olympics which I really look forward into. If you have any questions about kung-fu/wushu/talou, don't hesitate to ask me. I've been practicing for 8 years now.

Hahahah! I was blessed with inexistent calves. After a lifetime trying to do “something” about it, in vain, a couple of months ago I put my toes on the edge of a step of my stairs, grabbed a 20 kg kettlebell, and did as many calf raises as I could. Two days later I couldn’t walk properly. But I understood I was onto something. Since then I have been doing calf raises almost to failure, almost 5 times a week. A few days ago I had the hardest recognition possible, that of my wife, who, distractedly, said “have you been doing something for your calves?, they seem a tiny hair less small than usual “… Grazie for the great content!

Hi Kyle, love the videos. For someone skinny, is your physique attainable entirely through basic calisthenics such pull-ups, dips, and push-ups? Or will I need to prioritize weight training to bulk and achieve a physique similar to you?

[@basedWisco715]

You need to bulk and then cut, unless you want to just be skinny shredded -sincerely, a former twig lol

[@richzacedy3030]

I'll add my two cents as someone who's been doing it a long time with varying results. Both can and will build muscle if done right. weights are no guarantee of getting a good physique. You see people lifting weights daily who don't look great. Diet aside, the difference between looking good or not is consistency and quality of movement. So, you are free to choose weights or calisthenics. The absolute key is choosing the one you will consistently stick with, mindfully, regularly over a long period. I've tried every fad going and gained muscle and lost muscle. Nothing has been easier to consistently follow over a long period than kboges' style of workouts. Because a) I always get in 4 workouts a week minimum b) I never pick up an injury or strain and c) I don't hit the wall I used to with weights, where I would reach my safe limit and couldn't progress.

Completely unrelated but it's bonkers how much he sounds like David Foster Wallace.

[@Kboges]

Ahh I kinda hear it!

[@AWSKAR]

Maybe im gassing myself up a bit on my newbie gains but my physique seems excellent for just doing the basics for about 8 or 9 months consistently.

[@Kboges]

I doubt you are! 8 or 9 months of consistent hard work on the basics is no joke and can result in pretty great gains! Keep it up💪💪

[@AWSKAR]

Im supsr happy with what the basics have done for my physique so far. Im still squeezing a lot of gains out of them too.

[@giacomogonelli6329]

before you start training how do you warm yourself up? do you have any mobility or approach exercises?

[@Kboges]

I keep it simple; just a few easy reps of what I'm about to do. I'll go into more depth on this in a video.
