Primal Movement Beginner Flow Tutorial (Follow Along)

[@datawolf2318]

This kicked my butt so bad. As a former college athlete and boxer I'm blown away that this revealed so many weaknesses I have had my whole life.

[@ab__6504]

Same here! I wish I had this when I played 🥲

[@gerkirschbaum]

Yoga Poses: "The Peaceful flower" Primal Movement: "The fanged Beast of death" Awesome routine though, love the video!

[@salvadorhenry3524]

Instablaster.

[@shirtuntucked1810]

Hilarious!

[@justchristine8479]

Please do some more Primal Movement videos Ryan. I REALLY enjoyed this. It is helping with my stiff lumbar spine.

[@leoojtt]

Same

[@jgatchaljgatchal8350]

[@pillepalle3614]

Just like to say something about it. (I‘m a physical therapist). It‘s almost impossible to have a stiff lumber spine surely for a woman. But your lower thoracic spine could be. Either way the movements will help that.

[@trapease]

@@pillepalle3614 maybe "unlikely" but "almost impossible" seems strange based on personal experience and hearing many stories (including from younger women, so not just pregnancy lumbar pain). why do you think it's so rare?

[@thedanceshack16]

Please do more

[@terrancekayton007]

I like it because it's really familiar. I do most of these stretches naturally almost everyday. I like how there is a structure and folks have named these poses for us to benefit. I appreciate how he repeats his sets for us to see. Those wrist stretches being a delivery driver is really going to change the game for my circulatory system. Thanks man!

[@Neha165616Zouis]

Just did this. Only 3 rounds and god, the burn was AMAZING! This looks beautiful and demands so much strength at the same time. Thank you so much!!! ❤️

[@iliovininino]

Man, I've just discovered all these "moving/animal" kind of training. Did many routines today, this one you upload is very well explained and easy to follow. Keep this flow routines coming, great work!

[@SoloUpOkay]

Best workout I've had at home doing self quarantine! Feel amazing after

[@jeffaboularage1450]

Yes. Agree! This was a trip.

[@ScottWDoyle]

So helpful! There are a lot of animal flow videos that move too quickly into motions and positions that are impossible for a true beginner who has never done anything like this. But this video helps a novice slowly build up a foundation for more advanced positions. There's more than enough in the first 5 minutes to keep me challenged for weeks...

[@playb4work447]

Never knew these types of work outs existed. Can’t wait to try it, and looking forward to more.

[@jakemccoy]

Kids just playing around do all this stuff. Once a guy turns around 10 years old, he is too cool for it. Breakdancers also do everything here.

[@Miss_Mhiru]

English is not my mother language, but i understand you very well because the way that you explain all and share It with us. It is obvious that you love what you are doing, and we can receive that from you. Thank you so much!!! I'm so glad to find you!!

[@sanaal-badri3249]

More primal movement flows. This was great

[@terrencemcgarr5666]

Perhaps the best explanation of transitions I’ve come across, thanks Ryan

[@sydneyloum3211]

After doing this a couple of times my body already feels much better. It will make a great addition to my daily stretching and mobility work. Thanks a bunch!

[@trevbarlow9719]

I'm intermediate by calisthenics standards in terms of lifts, and this workout had me sweating half way in! I didn't even do the flows. So enlightening and fun!

[@MinusTheGym]

Trev Barlow I'm glad you liked it!

[@FirstnameLastname-ty1qd]

​@@MinusTheGym I do 4 full-body workouts a week. Should I do these on my rest days or a few hours after or before my full-body workout? Thanks

[@kiimheaslip]

This is an excellent intro to functional animal movements!!! All of your instructional videos are top-notch professional quality!! Thanks so much for all you do!!!

[@jeffaboularage1450]

Wow. That was a rush. I did this post lifting to try and find a leg and core workout. Man. You’re on to something here.

[@mikekho378]

GREAT FOR BEGINNER. I REALLY ENJOYED IT . WELL PLANNED.

[@jasonmc.dougall8551]

This has helped me a lot, after practicing these load and unload variations for a couple of weeks I can do the beast walk effortlessly, I can now move faster on all fours forward and backwards, to make it more challenging I might add some weights on my back

[@JohnHH59]

Great routine. I appreciate you going slow with these moves. Most who go through these moves just race right through them to where one has to pause every 5 seconds.

[@IBTrubble]

Thank you so much! I have been trying to learn natural movement skills and this video is the best I have tried yet!

[@daliagarduno1330]

First time watching your tutorial! I love how you explained each movement and gave enough time for us to repeat it. Thank you! i'm excited to learn with you.

[@mistyminnie5922]

It's fascinating how well my yoga practice carries over ! Essentially what we did was downward dog-to-upward dog, and ape is judt a wider variation of yogi squat :)

[@catherinehughes2683]

This is awesome! Thank you. I’ve added it to my mobility workouts to improve my flow when climbing.

[@mohdkhair]

Just what i'm looking for when i search for primal motor locomotor exercises. Barely could do it, thanks for the well-crafted instructions.

[@algae0]

Wow. I've been doing yoga and was thinking ok, maybe I'm ready to try this new thing. That was really hard but felt great. I definitely want to incorporate more of this into my workouts! Thanks!

[@oranbilsen7035]

You explained this very clearly. Great teacher.

[@9birdstyle]

For my current body type and weight a few minutes of this blows the gym away, plus its whole body which makes it all the more awesome

[@danthaman5230]

I love how it went from finger stretches and baby crawl to STATIC BEAST!! 0 TO 100 real quick

[@ianjamiesonmusic]

Haha! 😂

[@FrancescoMarelli84]

Eagerly awaiting your level 2 video ;-) This level 1 you shared was just a gem. Currently doing this, followed by the "easy" variations of burpees you present in your videos now, twice a day, for 40 days. Based on my progress, I'm going to make more use of the harder burpee variations (but keeping a max of 30 burpees per one sitting). Thank you so much, you made a yoga teacher really happy dong "other" movements than his usual ones.

[@4FuZeSp11]

This looks really cool; i will definitely be adding this. Thanks

[@andrevandenheever6740]

never felt so well put together in my body since I started this type of movement excercise and I have been doing all types of exercise throughout my life

[@jodanceelle8145]

Omg I did this workout and then i tried to do the frog stand and it works! Even if it's one second but I did it 😍..thank U very much!❤

[@geniusquick]

Really?!🤔I've been struggling with the frog stand for a while now. Maybe I'll give this routine a shot and see how it goes...

[@Apeshower]

@@geniusquick I can now frog. However, it’s not because I have specifically practiced frog. It’s all the other yoga stuff I have being for the last 2-3 months that has generally enhanced my core strength and my terrible flexibility. I think boosting the basics is really helpful and take your time. It will come.

[@ChantelStays]

I'm positive primal movement is just yoga. I had a deep yogic practice ... Then I quit, gained an insane amount of weight and only now trying to do something seriously about it after ten years of battling it and yoyo weight.... I've decided to follow primal movements daily, and my muscles within only two weeks are already recollecting old muscle patterns. Thanks for sharing this .. I will follow your vids !

[@sephfcuoctasphere1978]

I keep coming back to these, I’m practicing the basics shown here twice a week. Hope to see more of these vids in 2023!

[@applesandoranges8079]

So excited about Animal Flow! Today was day one for me and I kinda suck at it but looking forward to getting more fluid. Thank you for doing such a detailed video for us beginners.

[@youaregreat6589]

Great structure, thank you! I like how you explain the singular steps first and then adding a 3 set workout in total.

[@nileshshah4397]

Thanks Ryan, a whole new dimension to add! Really well explained as usual.

[@TC-vx3zw]

Thank you. It’s the fist time i heard about this exercise. It’s very interesting.

[@odedsayar4345]

Would love to see more of these!!

[@babajay8785]

Excellent advice. Thank you. Broken down in a great way for beginners

[@Selfuse91]

This is the best explanation that I found! Thanks for your effort and your patience to explain step by step. Looking forward to the next primal movement video.

[@felixlazar5320]

Hello Ryan Thanks for all you do... I m a french beginner in bodyweight work, living in Marseille, and i really love your vidéo. Primal mouvements are really great !!! Bonne continuation et mille merci pour tout ce partage !

[@MyDustyman]

This is brilliant taught. You’ve got a lifetime subscriber here. Thank you.

[@Scuddinoo]

Amen sister

[@tomesky]

Ahh man primal movement is my jam. I'm terrible at it but looking forward to continuing this journey.

[@101personal]

Ryan my wife and I am very thankful to you for your great videos. Keep up the good work thanks

[@Festiman_]

Nice video! I'm really overweight, was 114kg (1,79m height) just two months ago right before I started teleworking from my mother's house so I can take care of her during this pandemic. A couple of weeks I started looking after my diet a bit more, and also walking every evening for 75'-100' non-stop on our terrace. Last week I watched your Calisthenics Beginner Routine Without Equipment video, and it inspired me to start my workout routine as follows: Warmup: Jumping Jacks Circuit (4x) 20 pushups (currently against the wall) 30 squats 20-25" short bridge 10" Straight Bridge 20" Tucked Hollow Body Hold 10" Plank 2-3' rest Workout every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. After the workout I go for my daily walk. My plan is to follow the progressions you described in your video, and in parallel replace some of the walking with running when my weight allows it, and I feel I have enough strength on my knees and leg muscles. This Primal Movement Beginner Flow Tutorial looks amazing, and I think I would like to introduce some of this in the future, maybe when I'm on the upper half of the progressions in the current workout. What are your thoughts? Should I do / try something else before? These questions are not only for Ryan, but also for the rest of you that have some experience with this, since I'm a complete noob. :P

[@walterfrenguelli5421]

Great tutorial, I was looking for it!!! Thanks for sharing

[@DogDog173]

I keep coming back to this video. very useful moves!

[@ropeflow]

thanks so much!! - going to do this everyday during lockdown! - thanks

[@HumanLikeMan]

OMG, great beginner guide, wasn't sure if a 60 year old could even attempt these movements but I got through tutorial phase only. Will need to practice for a couple weeks before moving on to the "Flow Workout".

[@romalifetreasuresemporiuml2209]

I am trying the wrist exercises. For the little bit of exercise I did, it really helped. Thank you.

[@kjmcc]

What a fantastic video. Great explanation, I subbed within a minute. Looking forward to the rest of your content, Ryan!

[@alvinmangulabnan9166]

Love the way how the movements were dissected. Checking all your vids I can atm. Thanks man!

[@WeBreakItAllDownRightHere]

Former AF subscriber. I found this much more helpful than their actual website. I like their content but I had a hard time with how it was organized

[@bowsandaro]

This is so much fun! I will dedicate Thursday as my active recovery day from the gym to do this animal flow! Thank you so much!

[@wtfusheeple5383]

the best tutorial i have seen on this-respect

[@101personal]

Ryan, outstanding!!! I’ve seen Primal Movement before but this is the first time I actually tried and succeeded.!! Your video is very very very useful. Thanks and please keep sharing your learnings through your Channel.

[@MarturiaActsOneEight]

This is the first video of yours that I've seen and I'm so impressed. Thank you so much for this!

[@s0me0nelse]

‏‪9:15‬‏ For increasing difficulty on this one i would recommend trying to hold it with a straight back and hands reaching forward

[@aayushsingh6288]

Loved how you explained the movements first😀

[@jofitness9373]

This video is so good. I only discovered primal movement recently but I enjoy it a lot and it‘s improved my balance and stability already. Thanks for the video!

[@SeikoMatsumoto]

À very nice discovery for me. Thank you for the very nice and pedagogical initiation

[@viktoriababicheva994]

thank you so much,it is the best video i found so far🙏🏻

[@dave9547]

Crazy how much burn you get in your thighs doing the flow a bunch of times. Great work out!

[@etothez9898]

It’s like yoga but cooler 😄 I love it, I will implement for animal movement flow into my morning routine. Thanks :D

[@PatrickTham]

Love this, Ryan. I practice similar poses & movements in yoga but a few are new to me. 🙏

[@dominiquesabourin1579]

you are very patient in demonstrating the movements really appreciate your dedication !

[@teresaeb34]

Yes! Loved it! Been working this stuff for the last couples months and it’s so good for jiu jitsu training

[@3nt3rtain]

Thank you for saying that, as I'm looking for a workout for jiu-jitsu! Looks like I found it!

One of the best for beginners ! Thanks !

[@itsjessicayee]

these are great movement for working out at home!

[@sunriselady2716]

A lot of these moves are similar to yoga. I love these routines because for the life of me I cannot go to the gym on a consistent basis. These routines are great because I can do it in my room.

[@elizabethgrinningson7730]

Same here! 😂

[@FitnessDadDani]

This is really helping my body

[@koraxzon4373]

Really good for beginners. This was more difficult than t thought

[@christinalee2072]

Hand and wrist warm ups are important but don’t forget to spend a little time on shoulders, even elbows as well.

[@galinavasyuta]

very good explanation and the way you pause the positions !!!! just lovely for beginners. thanks

[@HannahRees]

Thank you so much. I really enjoyed this. I will continue to practice! ☺️✨🌱🐒

[@LyrikMaster]

Seems kinda Yoga-like to me. Will try it during my Nightshift today instead of my classic Yoga Routine. Thanks for sharing.

[@jcb6936]

Awesome stuff! I just started playing around with dragon walks which led me here. The static exercises look like a great way to build up the fundamentals. Really fun way to do bodyweight stuff! 😎💪👍

[@gaetanoiuculano7895]

Great work love doing primal movement even better when you get out in nature and apply these skills to moving and climbing through natural terrain, trees, rock outcropping etc! Just got yourself another subscriber!

Fantastic video! I have been looking for exactly this, to get started with the animal flows. Thank you!

[@fivebyfivesound]

Great tutorial with very helpful detail, thanks. It always strikes me how many contemporary movement and calisthenic system positions bear so much likeness to hatha yoga asanas.

[@sairamsekhar3055]

I was looking for a step by step to animal flow. Think I got it . Thank u. Perfect for me.
