[@Summerfunfitness]

Hey everyone! For a more up-to-date, actionable guide on how to start calisthenics, please check out this newer video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lYLVeJWNbKenb9Usi=KisuJzQsvWuQ4nLu

[@ms.cherry7609]

I was just about to ask. My daughter has disability. And I just need to stay strong for her in a whole different way. I have limited time. I can't think for myself at times and need to make sure I can follow something I will gain from.

[@JCL_Tigers]

Whoa! You look different! You look amazing

[@ethan073]

“Every time you do something imperfectly it becomes easier to do it imperfectly” oh wow that’s a good point. And a life lesson!

[@CaLbaTr00se]

practice makes permanent as some say

[@CarlosSantana-we6ts]

Yep, coach used to say, don’t ever practice mistakes.

[@nicolatoomey4882]

I used to have a body like this and be able to do these moves, though it was from doing yoga and pilates not calisthenics. Now, 20 years later, 3 pregnancies, a back injury and carrying an extra 70lbs of weight i want to get back to it. I will get it back!

[@ninawildr4207]

Do carnivore...it helped me ...fast! Watch Dr Omara and Dr Ken Berry ✌️

[@roserosey885]

of course you can. You did before so now it is easier it is reminding the body then it will do everything so start

[@Starseatarott]

Yes you will, your body definitely remembers the muscle memory is real, you will get back in no time, stay away from doubtful thoughts

[@VV-dz5hk]

Similar here, keto/carnivore made the whole difference. You didn't gain 70 lbs out of the blue, modern food is poisoning us. Do some research, do a slow transition and try it for a month, it will be so much easier to get fit again👍😊

[@dontgiveupplz]

You got this!!

[@MsPerriK]

I feel like everyone talks about aesthetic insecurities, but never mention mobility insecurity too. In an emergency situation, will I be able to pull myself up? Hell, can I even lift my body weight? There’s so many more useful reasons to train for calisthenics

[@morozyvo23]

For sure! Especially with age I started feeling necessity of exercising even just for functioning normally.

[@AbSquared-p9t]

Something like this happened to me recently. I was cleaning and dropped something behind my washing machine. So i had to crawl on it and reach back behind. When I reached for it i had to hang down a little. Everything was fine until i slipped and almost fell on top of my head. I wouldve been stuck like that for 6 hours since my husband was at work. Terrifying to think retrieving furniture polish could end up killing me had i not caught myself.

[@thatrabbit09]

Your comment meeds to be top! It's sad but true, ppl now focus on superficial stuff like appearance and derive their value from it... Not functionality.

[@Iamlayani]

This comment!!!

[@ravza1382]

im thinking way too much abt this too like you never know when no-one can help you and need to be strong alone

[@c.j3087]

1) warmup (10min) / Mobility 2) core engagement (kill those abs). Hollows/Superman - reversed planks 3) full range of motion 4)master the basics - Pull ups - Push ups - Dips - Squats - Mobility - Core 5) How to progress: - Start slowly - Focus on negative fase - full range of motion

[@gnalter]

you can clearly see that she has put so much effort and discipline in her training. all the sets and moves are well done and well explained, ty for the insights

[@jillianbyers9140]

this is genuinely the first ACTUALLY helpful video on calisthenics ive seen. i have been wanting to get into it for a while but had no idea what it was or how to start

[@MariaG-pg5ou]

I was thinking the same thing. Thank you!!

[@xxwookey]

Yes. Really useful to have it broken down like that for newbies.

[@Ashleybmakingvideos]

It's hard to find female calisthenics influencers. Thanks for the videos!

[@rebeccaoconnor1641]

By the way, I have to say… just finished watching… this video is downright inspiring.. it actually makes me want you to get in shape, move my body, improve my balance and get stronger every day !!! (That is not normal for me… 😅)

[@Richard-ug4el]

Holy cow! You are crazy strong, and you've got awesome form. It's so cool to see someone love their training this much. You're an inspiration. Keep it up.

[@capTain_pluGin]

Started Calisthenics 3 months ago, going strong and I can see the change, finally I can do pulls ups the way I've always dreamed This video is super helpful and informative, keep up! 👏💯

[@huzefapathan912]

Can you help me in this as I also want to be more functional and have more control on body Can you share how you started calisthenics as a beginner

[@RileyConley-z7o]

I have been weight lifting for 10 years and getting pretty bored with it and I was a gymnast as child. I’ve lost most of my childhood gymnastics skills and I’m deciding this is my goal this year!! Excited!

[@AdianAntilles]

Mad props to you. When I saw your execution, I thought: "I'd pay for training with such a good athlete.", which is a rare thought to me. This video gave me _multiple_ good ideas for my next steps, and I will be incorporating these into my training. Very well done!

[@dancassidy7471]

I love everything you teach. I am 75 and can do 20. Y grip pull-ups and I just want to be good at calisthenics. I can't do half as much as you do. But my goals are under your teaching.

[@dawngrogan1232]

I'm fifty-five and trying to get my body back. This is great!

[@shinbi6728]

That small clip of the Zombie press Hand stand was 🔥

[@MariaHerrera-pd6vw]

LOVE IT! I just came across your video and, not only am I super impressed and inspired by your strength, but I’m sold on calisthenics 😂 I’m married to a body builder who pulled me into weightlifting and I’ve been looking for something that’d help me improve my mobility while not giving up strength training, and I’m just so thankful I came across your video. Thank you for the awesome explanations!!!

[@KingaGorski]

You're wicked strong girl, kudos to your discipline and dedication! 💪

[@christalmiller2825]

Working out never really inspired me, but the work you do reminds me of the way I played as a child. That is really appealing and I actually fell excited to try something new. Thank you for putting this video out there!❤ you are a gem

[@carolinelatour87]

Wow you’re incredible!!! I love your energy and it’s so rare that I find a youtuber and think this is exactly what I’m looking for and all I need! You’re really getting me back on track with calistenics!! THANK YOU

[@mollyram2997]

Love this. I'm a yogi trying to start training strictly calisthenics to help with all of the inversions & balances :) just everyday life really. One of my favorite teachers adds in pistol squats to her flows(& dragon/sissy)so it's great to look in to the rest of this style of bodyweight training. Great vid!

[@Zero-oq1jk]

A Bear?

[@TEMYLEC]

I love your beginner videos! Thank you! I will be 50 next year and have loved calisthenics for some time but a bit intimidated and I have lots of shoulder injuries from years of bad postures and strain. I’m going to figure it out anyway. Thanks! ❤

[@caffeine.and.sparkles]

I just turned 40 and have weak ankles and wrists! I wanna start learning how to do this but I'm definitely starting at zero

[@tanyaflynn4908]

I'm going to be 50 in the new year! I want to learn this also. My shoulders hurt as well.

[@amandai.1334]

if that's you in your picture holy crap you are aging beautifully

[@dana780]

@@caffeine.and.sparkleshave you found any videos to match with where you starting? I totally need that!

[@magdacuraqueo9234]

I've been wanting to start calisthenics for a while, i think now is the perfect time :) thank you for the video!

[@curiousme8]

Your body looks so strong and powerful. I enjoyed every minute of this video. Thank you for inspiration!

[@CarissaLeeVlog]

I just discovered your channel and I have to say that this video is so inspirational! It makes me wonder why more of us don't push ourselves like you do. It just seems that being able to move your body so readily and easily in so many situations is very beneficial and it floors me that I don't see more people pushing themselves to be physically better.

[@Godd3n3ss]

You're amazing and attaining half of these movements are my goals for the year, thank you!

[@makebaburns-ramsey2826]

Thank you, thank you, thank you. You truely are about what you are about. You are the first person in my LIFE that made me feel confident to believe and KNOW ghat one day I will be able to do a hand stand. I don't know you but I Love you, you have a truely amazing spirit. Thank you for the work you are doing❤

[@IELTSaccelerator28]

I've just embarked on calisthenics, so it's incredibly inspiring to see a girl do all those insane pull-ups' variations! Great job, indeed!👏👏👏

[@spekteatles]

This is terrific! Thank you. I would certainly be interested in a training PDF and additional videos on workout frequency, length, progressions, etc.

[@MountainMamaJen]

This is one of the best calisthenics videos I've ever seen. Thank you! 👏

[@hiltonmcconnell2563]

Great video thank you very much I am 72 yr and trying to get back in to shape, a couple of months ago I was in the hospital and then took about a month to get back to feeling sum what good. I could not do 1 pull up and only 1 dip and 8 push ups, I started weight training with free weights and a cable machine, to day i did pull ups 6 , 7, and 4 ; dips 11,11 and 10 ; So weight training dose help, but my goal is to do 20 pullups 20 dips and 60 pushups. I like full body work outs but needed the weight training to get me motivated as I could progress a little quicker in it. I will be doing bough, but when I work out with weights I use full movement of the mussels I am working. Again great video keep me going thank you. My first set of push ups was 20 doing my work out while watching this video at 72 need a little more rest between sets.

[@nidhidhawan6683]

Wow! You inspire!! I am 54, and the first pullup is still a long way off!! But I am going to keep trying- and now that I have stumbled upon you @summerfunfitness, may be get to it faster!

[@b____y6579]

You r boooooommmmmmm amazing Such a gooshbumps You energise my childhood strength and now came to find out i was a calethenics lover and always used to climb on a street bamboo and enjoy hanging on them. Super feeling good after seeing ur calthenics workout. Hope to continue it and thank you for motivating❤❤❤. Much love❤

[@ImmortalsArentHappy]

Just started the video BUT OH MY GOSH YOU'RE MY GOAL

[@Infinityofficially1]

Love this video, I’ve been weight training for over a month now, & been adding Pilates and yoga in there also. Calisthenics is something to definitely add in your routine. Im also working on getting my splits both sides and straddle, but I’ve been searching/experimenting so many videos sometimes it gets overwhelming on what’s best to do for that. It would be pleasing to make a video on that? Edit: Suddenly goes back to the video to see that it was 4 years ago 😅

[@misr-pm7cv]

I love this woman's energy

[@ellieswanson8029]

Thank you so much for making these videos. I;m just now starting in calisthenics and you are super inspiring! Keep doing what you're doing girl!

[@Pslamurai]

Great information. I appreciate the detail. I trained athletes for decades as a martial artist and eventually a grand master. I competed for 27 years and messed my body up pretty bad. New hips rebuilt shoulders and such. I even coached a few people who trued out for the Tae Kwon do Olympic team. Thankful for what I was able to do. This information makes me want to move more and build my body back up to past where it used to be. I am 65 now so this will quite an endeavor. Again, well done and thank you.

[@martineaiyana]

Love this video! It was great to gain an understanding of calisthenics as a beginner. I’d love to see a beginner mobility / calisthenics series 🙏🙏🙏

[@aersmoker7074]

I'm late to you & started w/a video that was recent. The change in your muscles and body shape is unreal. Amazing!!...& congratulations on your journey! Keep it going, thank you for sharing! ❤

[@freyaw9027]

This is exactly the kind of video I was looking for, thank you!

[@mariamaragakis]

Wow... Amazing strength.... I am a newbie here... So this just makes me wanna work harder

[@heathermunoz6282]

I want to do more but my arms don't straighten, so it makes it a little more challenging. I also have spondy with stenosis and hip detachment/tear. I'll keep working at it. Thank goodness for people like her having the humility and patience for people like me 😊

[@M.K-SAVE]

I do hybrid (weights + Cali) ... I don't go crazy with cali though. I'm happy with the Handstand Push up, pull up, muscle up, pistol squats, Push up, body rows, front leaver and toes to bar). A sample of my back workout: 1) BB Deadlift 5 x 5 - 8 reps 2) BB Hyper ext. 5 x 10 reps + 2 drops 3) Weighted Pull ups (strict form) 5 x 5 - 8 reps 4) Body Rows 4 x 15 reps 5) BB Rows 4 x 8 reps 6) Rope sled pulls (functional)

[@RedPilled-qj9mr]

If your program is what you have written here, you're a beast. Most of us are lazy and sedentary compared to what you do.

[@M.K-SAVE]

@@RedPilled-qj9mr try my workout out and give me your feedback. I can also provide you with my other workouts if you want

[@allyk3144]

Love your video!! Definitely want more please! Beginner progressions, lower body, upper body, core...all of it! 🤗

[@HillaryFarraArdmore]

I absolutely love this video summer! You have definitely motivated me to get more into and master calisthenics moves and positions and movements! I hope to look as fit as you by the end of this year!! But I definitely have a few other goals as well like handstand and that zombie push-up handstand was incredible! I hope to be this strong one day! I'm 42 and know I can do this!

[@yogabija]

Thanks, I think this is the best video I have seen on this topic. I like the detail you go into and how you show what your doing. Real nice to see you know your stuff and can explain it to others.

[@amelanatedreanissancewoman6112]

Amazing! This is the break down I needed to get started. I don’t know why it took 4 years for me to see but please make more ! This was awesome

Thank you so much! I'm doing calistenics the last 8 months in a group (courses) and I am obsessed with it. It's time to learn more about the theory of it, so thank you for this video.

[@erikhenry689]

Having a full length mirror wherever you train is a great way to monitor your form while exercising.

[@mileenk707]

it scares me and makes me want to get into it at the same time. i think this could be really benefitial for climbing. I think you would probably be a great climber, with that hell of body control

[@desireeescobar5253]

Girl, this was an amazing overview and tips for beginners 👏 thanks

Wow that's impressive. I can't lift my legs up from the floor let alone doing it with one hand 😲 but I'll get there slowly 😌

Nice work for not having a gymnastics background, I find that most people that excel in calisthenics have done gymnastics

She speaks the truth, nice little video as a starter guide. You must do the base work she shows before you can be an advanced move master.

[@semikaren]

Interment and informative..li have dipped in and out of body trading…now 64 with menopause weight ….I’m most keen to get fit strong and healthy, and it’s incredible how you can achieve that just by using your own body weight and consistent precise movements..teamed with balance and core strength... Very impressed….I have weak wrists which is rather annoying when trying to excite certain moves…guess I could wear some gloves or adapt positions to overcome this… new subscriber now on board 😊

[@nio731]

Personally what I like most so far is that calisthenics is the ULTIMATE mind to body connection. To really keep your muscles engaged every second of the movement takes some crazy mental discipline and body connection and this is my goal of 2024! Thank you for this outstanding video ! 🫶🏼🌸
