[@Rhea.Magica]

Wooooohoooo unlocked it today!!!!!! Ever since I’ve started capoeira I’ve been loooving that move and now finally after 3yrs of capoeira I’ve been feeling strong and the last couple weeks really target trained for Macaco and I’m doing it! So much fun! Now I can refine and find my flow

[@literallyanything7517]

Man, you still inspire me more and more every video. Thank you so much for posting and showing us how amazing we can be.

[@gnuPirate]

Pretty sure this is my favourite fitness channel on YT. Chill but always so thorough and well thought out in the lessons and progressions. We're really lucky to have you sharing your stuff. Thanks dude. Feel a bit sorry for the google drones in the building behind you in this one.

[@Strengthside]

🙏 thanks

[@EvolveNowYoga]

It's time to unlock some new moves this summer! This is going to be one of them!💪

[@Strengthside]

[@MorbidGames666]

Yessir! Every spring and summer im always doing Josh his moves!

[@EvolveNowYoga]

@@MorbidGames666 yes he helped me a lot learning new movements!

[@wan2shuffle]

Did you get the Macaco?

[@trekbrooker2692]

It would be amazing to get a whole series of videos like this!

[@MorbidGames666]

Mate I seen you do these last year. Started figuring out what you were doing exactly. That was the most fun I had with my body in a long while. This video made me remember I need to get back into this and the handstand!

[@armandomorantes9331]

You're the man! Your interest in capoeira is what attracted me to your channel!

[@Strengthside]

awesome. Love capoeira

[@baokang7556]

glad to see another Capoeira tutorial here. indeed, I like Macaco!

[@HaydaOfficial]

Exactly what I was looking for. You just deliver the good shit. Easy to understand and well demonstrated. Thank you for your work! 💓

[@FrostshadowStudios0310]

I will so be learning this move. It'll help with the back handspring, which I'm eager to learn.

[@stevepaul9452]

I am feeling Zen now guys and thanks for the inspiration.

[@kunal0509]

That's really cool dude...thx for making a video on this one

[@reggaefever1546]

You guys are amazing and I love what you're doing so much. I need to do this❤

[@nunlike_liv]

quick tip: When doing the macaco, make sure your hand is turned the opposite way of where you normally place it so you dont twist your wrist

[@kingkonork2641]

Very well explained, step by step. Thank you.

[@Vl4d21]

Thanks a lot. Been waiting for this.

[@peacelovehealthpowerresthe7940]

I love this kind of video :))

[@Hustrulill]

Absolutely smashing video of a totally cool movement. Very good breakdown of the movement but my first attempt was indeed humbling. This will take a long time 😊

[@nunlike_liv]

Thank you so much. I am doing capoeira and my instructor went over the macaco and now I can do it!

[@pooyannajafi]

[@jeanfy2096]

I also know do the flip and in what Time did you think i Can learn the macaco like you?

[@szostek24]

Going for it!

[@girabrasil]

Thanks to popularize the famous capoeira macaco move. You made it in gracious way showing off the intermediate stage to a full macaco: my first capoeira master used to call it "macaca-u" which means a hydride move between "macaco" and "aú".

[@stephenjohnmcgeoch]

nice macaco ! learnt it many years ago when practicing capoeira ! hardest thing is to learn it on both sides !! make sure when u learning to practise both sides!!!

[@TheCatchProductions]

I came here wanting this video to be rubbish... but I watched and it was awesome 🤩 well done sir well done! As always great content brother 👊🏾🔥 keep at it ✅

[@parkercallaway8580]

[@melodyb7779]

[@Strengthside]

Famous last words

[@InYourFaceMoFo]

@@Strengthside easy... 😜

[@cyberpunkdreams]

If anyone's curious, macaco literally just means "monkey" in Portuguese (not surprisingly). Great video. I might just start giving it a go...

[@unterwegsimwesennamensmatthias]

Thank you!!!

[@andre2900]

Just wow this video makes me dream

[@saucegod5592]

Amazing

[@MrSchnauzbart65]

Nice! I want to try this once I can do a free Handstand.🤙🏻

[@olivierbukuru2728]

Thanks bro

[@gabifrainer]

Awesome

[@jigneshdathiya1655]

Very informative bro

[@elliesaurus7245]

What do you call the "bailout" roll at 2:56-2:57? And thanks for the video. Think I'm making progress. I feel like it's a crappy cartwheel for now, but I'll get there.

[@theAussie01]

Awesome THANKYOU 🙏

[@just4all448]

Looks cool 😎

[@FullTechnic]

Thanks

[@twobraincells4364]

I love it.

[@warriors_of_light5559]

Dopeee 🔥

[@siddharthjoshi8]

Could you please make some sort of a progression video. I would love to do this but I don’t think I have the foundation. Got into mobility training last week

[@FieryRedDonkeyOfHell]

WHAT ARE THOSE PANTS AND HOW DO I GET THEM

[@NovaSaeed30]

Ayye u stay in az or do any trialing

[@mcsangveer]

Unlocked

[@jigneshdathiya1655]

Bro pls make a video on rounder shoulders and body posture

[@pooyannajafi]

Do you have any cure for tight lower back and hip when waking up in the morning. I am around 38, kind of athletic but sometimes I wake up feeling there is a ring of cement around my hip. Usually warming up and glute exercises help but seems there us a constant need to do thise

[@rubenv3026]

Strengthening the lower back itself has worked well for me. I've personally found seated goodmornings to be a very valuable exercise.

[@InnerSun777]

Look to the cause. Do you sit for long periods of time without getting up and stretching? If you are desk worker, you got to make sure to do daily morning and evening stretches, like the cobra stretch, childs pose, and knees 2 chest. I work with desk workers very often.

[@InYourFaceMoFo]

Google for shin box switch exercise

[@joaovinicius412]

Macaquinho da capoeira, um salve do Brasil🇧🇷🇧🇷

[@ALCRAN2010]

babe i'll be back, gonna go unlock my maca co.

[@monddasher516]

Wow

[@AnneYap-hk8uq]

If im right handed, what hand should i use to push off?

[@joelthesupergamerboy8427]

You don't have to be left handed or right handed just choose side that you are comfrontable going over it willbe same you like doing a 360 over and that feels more controlled. Try both sides and see which feels comfrontable if you never done arcobatics before.

[@eliassander7]

Es ist wirklich faszinierend was der menschlicher Körper in der Lage ist zu leisten, bezüglich der Flexibilität.

[@annmarieveronicajames2536]

Excellent and not easy for me. Macaoi is for experience in flipping. There are some may be possible to do. Thanks. 🙏🏽📖😇

[@ЧеловекРазумный-д6х]

[@juukame]

Time to unlocko my macaco :]

[@ginacorriveau9182]

Macaco means monkey in Portuguese 🤙🏽 great video

[@mluisatey]

Have you ever tried the "Kalaripayatu Challenge"? it involves putting a leg through your arms when you are holding a long stick and then trying to break free. Check it out, I'm sure you'll get it!! I feel a lot of pain in my wrists, show us the correct technique.

[@joelthesupergamerboy8427]

Make sure to stretch your wrists and warm them up as well so when do any movements that put into your wrist it won't hurt super badly

[@KillaK4]

Im still afraid of backflips 🤣🤣

[@B3nso90]

Is that your scooter, electric?

[@Squishmallow-vi1co]

nice voice you sound like dharr man :)

[@bob4919]

Josh, if I tried this macaco would go flyin across the field! {Sorry}

[@gjerre81]

Easiest flip??? I’ve been trying to get this move for almost 20 years and I still can’t do it 😢

[@joelthesupergamerboy8427]

Maybe you are rushing or maybe it is your body type not to mean but there are some big athletic people who even struggle with this move meant. Just keep trying and warming before hand helps as well.

[@joelthesupergamerboy8427]

Make sure to put your hand that you choose to use hand should be facing backwards looking behind you. Thurst your hips and push hard on the base arm. You must move your legs, hips, Swinging arm and head all at the same time. At you can just jump and hip thrust and swinging arm at the same time without flipping and then you can add the flip. You can always practice cartwheels to learn how to get used to being upside down and bail out if you get scared.

[@shoa4566]

Ma ma ma ma cacao.

[@Dominik-kx6il]

wow, this looks so easy but its not!

[@bmc5180]

Yeah....nope.

[@jcmick8430]

I only see khal drogo when I watch these vids

[@Deondre_Clark]

Unlocking your macaco sounds like something you should only do in the privacy of your own home

[@sushantghugare2306]

Brother, I like your videos.. but we and the world is going to end. I'd suggest that if you'd want to find that inner peace and the true purpose of life, read QURAN ... I was searching for reality, truth, inner peace, and I found it ...so could you.. just try it, bro.. may Allaha guide you... Jesus said: My Lord your God is One GOD.... in Vedas its writtten "Natsya pratima asti, ekkam evaddityam" - There is no image of God and he is only One ... Quran says - kul hu Allaha hu ahad... "there is 1 got without a second" so what does God want from us ... find the purpose in the final revelation revealed to our last prophet Muhammad PBUH the Quran ...
