Dominik Sky - I'm Back! 2022/23 Training Update

[@Ben_sul]

The king is back!

[@FitnessFAQs]

Welcome back again brother!

[@DominikSky1]

thank you brother!

[@IvanDjuric300]

A UFC champion. Now that would be awesome to see man. Keep training. You’ve mastered so many physical skills so far I’m sure you have what it takes to learn MMA too. All the best!

[@Wiizardii]

Awesome to see you here Ivan! Didn't know you also watched Dominik's videos!

[@DominikSky1]

I thought so too!!! Hvala brate!! All the best!!! 💪🙏

[@lemiwashere]

I've been following you for 8 years, i am 21 now. So happy to see that you're doing amazing in things that you love, truly inspirational journey =)

[@DominikSky1]

Wow! Thank you young Sir!! I have no doubt your journey was incredible as well! =)

[@intmarte]

Cannot recommend the Sky Camp enough! Easily one of the best and most fun weeks in my life. Thanks Dom! 🙏

[@LegoNinja21]

I'll never forget when I first discovered your videos almost 10 years ago shortly after I started training calisthenics. Your beginner to advanced pressing, pulling, and core videos were a game changer in my progressions and gave me so much motivation to increase my discipline. You're a legend Dominik, thank you!

[@DominikSky1]

Thank you!!! Glad to see those videos had some positive impact!!! =))

[@pinklion4057]

It is much more than happy to see you again.

[@matze1582]

All the best for you Dominik! I remembered the days when you trained with your little cat :)

[@josevargas3854]

Hope the best for the best 🙏👍🇺🇸💪👏

[@onefingerpushup1992]

Welcome back my friend

[@theladyfortress]

great to have you back

[@ukaszsobczyk9553]

nice to have you back

[@yoshi1951]

Crazy how all the backlashes makes you stronger and happier. Thats what life is about. Falling, recovering, coming back stronger and wiser. Great motivation❤

[@Wiizardii]

It is both really fun seeing you back Dominik and to see you in this new phase of your life and training - because you enjoy what you're doing, and you're passionate about. As a long time fan, I would rather you do what you love and post videos about that, as opposed to forcing yourself to do keep doing something you've been doing for years, just because people expect that from you. It's always fun to see someone who is passionate and excited about what they're doing - especially a long-time veteran like you who has been posting since like 2010. Most people in your position get bored and keep posting/doing the same stuff over and over, but you've found something new. I wish you good luck in your training journey, and I'm excited for more martial arts/ calisthenics videos from you!

[@DominikSky1]

What a beautiful advice! Thank you so much for such kind words! =)

[@ahmadzahloote8846]

Welcome back champion!

[@kasperbloch9800]

Living the dragon ball life of sparring and training! Amazing dom! Been following for years!

[@bedd444]

You inspired a lot of us DOM thanks, best of luck in your new journey.

[@bend1483]

Great to get an update Dom. been following your work for years and your advice in your videos have transformed my fitness and calisthenics ability. Best wishes for the MMA stuff, keep us updated!!

[@crypto_coke]

Thats my boy Dan Martinez on the far right in your picture @6:40 !!! wow, small world.

[@A1Avishek]

Great to see you back and doing well Dom. Seeing you on your path is an inspiration to all of us. I wish you all the success my man!

[@sjorsvanravenzwaaij8446]

Love to see how your eyes light up talking about your new found passion. Cant wait to see you in the octagon. Best of luck with the progress and the injuries!

[@DominikSky1]

thank you!!! I really appreciate that!

[@bharathnellore581]

Great to see you back 👑

[@anti1training]

I'm so glad you're still making videos and are training another discipline! I use to watch you when I started calisthenics and thanks to you, I got really strong! I've done wrestling in High School and did BJJ and JKD recently. I want to become a competitive fighter now too! Awesome to see one of my inspirations/KZbin mentors, be in the same kind of disciplines 😭

[@Joshuapsalm]

This awesome 👏 congratulations

[@pokenath2006]

Yessir Dominik so good to have you back real inspiration 🙏

[@hadi.calisthenics]

Appreciate the insights. It’s very inspiring to see athletes who are as tall and heavy as myself as I’m also approaching the 30s. I currently work on my HSPU and elbows tend to go far back and don’t stay above the wrists. Also, my left trapezius is nagging occasionally which is sometimes frustrating. But I keep on until I reach my goals. I’m not the most talented guy but I work very hard to achieve what nobody in my local area accomplished. 💪❤

[@DominikSky1]

Thanks!!! oh I’ve been there… keep going brother!! I have no doubt you’ll make it happen!! 💪

[@ZenDragonYoutubeChannel]

Fun,... my journey's been the reverse focusing on martial arts mostly and some lifting weights/pushups and pullups untill the past 3-4 years where I've slowly started exploring a bit of basic parkour, breakdance, cartwheeling, trying to get a decent handstand, etc, next to the martial arts. And doing it all while busy with parenting a 4 year old, working, and creating martial arts content on KZbin.... so it's a slow journey and i'm at a low level in all of it besides martial arts where i also have some holes to work on, but it's a journey of fun and some progress and minimizing the regress (just turned 39).... anyways, i look forward to seeing you kickbox or have an MMA match. :)

[@DominikSky1]

the journey is what's important! It looks like you have an amazing one! Keep striving =)

[@ZenDragonYoutubeChannel]

@@DominikSky1 Agreed🙏🏻👊🏻

[@Ninooo-qo3od]

Welcome back man! Been wondering where u went

[@BeatLuginbuehl]

Heyhey, good that you're back

[@Uberzits]

I'm glad to see you back, as a matter of fact a couple weeks ago I checked your channel to see if anything new was going on there... you were very inspiring to me and I kinda tried several diferent things aswell and became really good at gymnastics at some point, but then I fell in love with ice skating and ballet and that to me is what mma is to you... unfortunatelly I had to move on because sometimes it's really hard to live your dream... I hope you achieve lots of shit bro, keep on!

[@DominikSky1]

thank you!! wow that must have been a beautiful journey!! Hmmm doesn’t seem that hard to me to be honest… what is your dream if i may ask? :)

[@Uberzits]

@@DominikSky1 sure bro, but I'm afraid I can't answer to that without getting too political ahaha... anyway, concerning sports, dance, health and all I think I dream about aging well... back in times I wish I could get competitive in ice dancing, but atm I'm completely away from training and all.. I want to get back eventually and get realistic over my white hairs, it would be enough if I could perform really well on ice skating either solo or duo listening to one of my favorites songs.. that would be nice 🥹

[@eagleriver900]

You're the best DOM !! Happy holidays to you and your family

[@DominikSky1]

thank you! Happy holidays to you and yours family as well! all the best! :)

[@petrosbarmpounakis6139]

Glad that you are back man. Best of luck with your MMA career. And everybody that follows you on Instagram know that you never left!

The Return of the King

[@tragabaches5429]

Heyy, so excited to see you again here Dom! You've inspired all of us to join calisthenics, streetworkout, freerunning and more stuff related to movement, it's awesome how polivalent you are, and I am personally sure that your career is just starting. I think the best athletes are those who come from other sports and thats the beauty of it, the beauty of movement, everyone is different and everyone can teach you something new. Good luck in you career and keep your stuff posted so we can keep learning from the best! Cheers from Spain brother

[@DominikSky1]

Thanks for such kind words brother!!! all the best!! 💪

[@Pangalango]

So happy to see a new video🙏🏼 I would really appreciate if you could answer my question. I've been training really hard for a couple months by now, and I'm starting to feel really fatigued during my training. I remembered that you mentioned something about the active rest week on one of your videos/seminars, but I can't find this information. If you could explain how do I structure my rest deload week, it would mean so much, thank you.

[@DominikSky1]

Happy to be back! =) Yes sir! No problem I'll film a video on that subject tomorrow and upload asap!!

[@pedropc5824]

Even if you don't become the best, you are enjoying the journey

[@AlexWayneJr]

So motivational! Keep on going Dom!

[@nancylorenzutti3453]

Hey!!!! I’ve been following you for years, I give you a lot of credit for the MMA, my brief encounter with karate , I loved it, my original training was classic modern and ballet. My goal past few years was a few sets of one chin up, before Covid I had a great trainer, I almost Had a neutral grip pull up, I’m 71, you’re probably laughing by now, I have been out three years, I’m back at gym, I’m one of the few that knows the exercises and how to do strength training, I did get an ACE certification years ago. Anyway lots of luck with your plans , love seeing your videos, you are just a genius for anatomy, kinesiology etc, I love strength training and hoping to hear from you soon. N

[@DominikSky1]

Thank you sir!!! Very impressive and inspiring that you are still going for it at 71!!! All the best to you!!! :)

[@DenisToma88]

Welcome back Bro

[@michealwatts7469]

Damn I would love to spare this with you, I mean Im a boxer but it is a true passion and fun. Your tutorials and sky university has actually helped me with that discipline to learn. Welcome back and I cannot wait to see your progress in MMA

[@DominikSky1]

Oh I would love that! Boxing was my first love when it comes to combat sports! thank you!!! 🙏

[@Antonio_Martinez_98]

Great lesson from the first part of the video: learn to let go, so important and so hard to internalize. With that said, glad to see you're still working on your dream and I truly hope you achieve big things!

[@DominikSky1]

Thank you sir!! 💪🙏

[@Rishisri108]

Long time no see bro !! ❤

[@Gabe851]

Been following you for a loong time now, I'm excited for your new journey! Funny cause I was also starting to get into martial arts recently. Question though did you not consider starting with one discipline first like say Boxing or Muay Thai, and building a strong base in it before moving to MMA and having to deal with multiple styles?

[@DominikSky1]

Thanks! Haha awesome!!!! oh yes that’s exactly how I went about it. First I did 2 yrs of boxing, then 2yrs BJJ, I did a lot of kicking in the mean time and this year I worked primarily on muay thai. :) I sparred mma in the meantime to understand the sport better but most of the training was dedicated to 1 discipline. :)

[@bouazzacali3211]

The best Athlete in the world

[@mohanad0408]

I've been watching MMA for years, and I know I'm not qualified to give tips but I'll say one thing. Please train your mind for it. You must be vicious man brutal and nasty. I won't say anything about being a better technician because I believe you're great at that. Watch fighters like Jones, Roundtree, Petr Yan, Khamzat... etc. This quality is cultivated from yourself, and not something you can develop in the gym. Not as important for Boxing but in MMA... it's a major factor IMO. All the best Dom.

[@DominikSky1]

very intelligent thinking my friend! btw I’m training my mind every day! I know my “youtube persona” is a very passionate and cheerful dude (and I am that!) but I’m also a seriously bad motherf*cker capable of great violence (when it’s necessary). I’m looking forward to showing more of that side in the very near future! 🙏

[@xeperoth463]

Hey there sensei dom,welcome back,I am also starting training back up and getting back into calisthenics after this last year, having to move and deal with some family stuff. But I am really interested in this training camp,you told me a few years back you would love to have me come but I just didn't have the means. And I really want to try to get to meet all of you at a training camp within the next few years,I think that would be an amazing achievement to be able to train with the great group of guys we have. So any info or a yearly schedule for the training camp, and a bit of info for cost and what it consists of would be very helpful.

[@DominikSky1]

My team and I are working on it, so when we know the details we will let you know =)

[@paweljel5608]

Welcome back 💪💪 also how well would you say the calisthenics strength transfers to wrestling/bjj?

[@DominikSky1]

thank you! very well actually! not in a way that it transfers to bjj or wrestling skill that much but It primarily helps with not getting injured! And in a long term that is very very valuable! =)

[@lamanifaudelhani4286]

💪🔥

[@cinematickungfu]

i love you and been following you for years , i have an advice for you , wear something to protect your ears when you're training so that graplling/wrestling/brasilian ju jutsu doesn't ruin your ears , leave that risk only in official combats , but in practicing , it is smart to wear ear protection

[@DominikSky1]

yeah I was thinking about that! It seems like a good idea!! thanks bro! 🙏

[@ZenDragonYoutubeChannel]

How is your martial arts training schedule in terms of solo training/training with a class or group of people? I'm at a point in life where the majority of my training is now solo, and sometimes i get to playfully spar (BJJ hard with 2 of them, striking always pretty restrained, sometimes super restrained) with some teens and kids at work, once in a while i can set up meetings to spar with grown up martial artists in my network.

[@DominikSky1]

Great question! I would live to answer that in a video if that’s ok! It will be up next week! :)

[@ZenDragonYoutubeChannel]

@@DominikSky1 For sure, looking forward to it :)

[@wellutopia2237]

Damn missed you bro. Can you please touch on how we should handle days on a PPL routine and one of the days we just seem to not be able to get all the reps in. Is that a sign to take a deload week??

[@DominikSky1]

Yes sir! I can make a video on the subject if you like =)

[@wellutopia2237]

@@DominikSky1 Thanks so much brother. Cause i followed your PPL advice until i was at like 60lbs pull ups but there were days i just could not get in the targeted 5x5 or 3x5. Felt weak as hell and i didnt know what to do. A deload week didnt seem appropriate because i didnt feel any overuse injury. Thanks very much

[@wellutopia2237]

@@DominikSky1 Hey friend can you please touch on what an ideal second push and second pull day should look like. You mentioned in your previous videos to do less than your first days. How much less? Less weight? Less reps? Less sets? Perhaps i had weak days because i over did it on my second PPL days and should have done far less. Cause i was doing same weight but like one less rep. Perhaps should have been maybe less weight. I have no idea. I need the master to chime in. Thanks so much bro for all you have done.

Just a side question, how's your journey through "climbing" if you've ever been occupied in it?

[@sakurabasama]

It would certainly be a great feat to be successful in the UFC after starting MMA in your 30's. Especially at MW which should be his weightclass if he weighs 90k. Getting in the UFC should be possible for a dedicated athlete who already has some popularity (non sport related considerations play an important role for the UFC, ref CM Punk). Best of luck !!

[@thepizzaworkoutplan]

Sparring with no coverage is insane. like just insane.

[@DominikSky1]

head gear is there to make sure you don’t get cut not to prevent brain damage brother! getting hit hard with gear on is just a destructive… It gives a false sense of security. what prevents brain damage is good defense and not getting hit. :)
