My 3 Biggest Mistakes when Starting Calisthenics

[@shresthjakhwal8575]

3 Mistakes- 1. Progressing too quickly in the beginning. (Skipping the basics) 2. Not stretching. 3. No warm-Up.

[@danielalcobia8404]

Shresth Jakhwal thx fucking 8 min to get to the point lol hahahaha

[@keineahnung5455]

But the 8 min where great, i regret nothing

[@DMBoyCloud]

We should use this to summarize the content however the video is great to give some examples. Now I know how to start and your comment is the point of the video.

How has the journey been? I'm just starting late 2020.

[@RaduDumitrache]

@@conorm2524 We all have a style and objective with these exercises. I know I'm glad I started when I did, nowadays my body asks me to do them and my mind needs them to relax. Good luck on your journey.

wojtekimbier really well said by him. I will get back into calisthenics, it helps with yoga and is fun itself. It might take me a long time to do candlestick and muscle ups but I value it.

[@michaelfuchs2502]

I highly appreciate your remarks on minor injuries in the elbow joints and alsewhere since I am affected by them currently. Now I know that it is not uncommon for beginners and even more advanced athletes to get injured. Thumbs up, take care.

[@TrainingPal]

Oh yeah, that's most frequently caused by wrong apporach, no matter if you're a beginner or advanced.

[@omarzambrano2049]

I'm brand new to calisthenics and it's due to a few injuries over my 56 years ive picked up from my career (heating engineer) and hobbies (motorcycling).its now essentiall that I train regularly to stop the discomfort,immobility and generally crap feeling of ageing but I'm still as enthusiastic and impulsive as I was in my 20s..........so thanks so much for this crucial video .subbed

[@johnd8971]

Some good solid advice here, especially about the time to strengthen ligaments and joints (planche in particular I found to be hard on the joints). Would rather eat my own pancreas than warm up for 30 mins though.... cheers

[@altuber99_athlete]

Your quality is great.

[@kira_15_R3D]

A very educational video! you explain everything in a simple, technical, straight to the point and not too complicated way. And I appreciate it.

[@Vasyaliske]

Thank you for the video! I also had (or still have) 2 of 3 issues you've mentioned. Nice way IMHO to stretch or train flexibility is yoga if you don't mind spend 30 min. - 1 h. 2-3 days a week in your days off. Ashtanga yoga, which is my favourite, is a good cardio too and has well-defined progression as well. I did it for 2 years even before calisthenics and it felt great! Now I am slowly starting to do it again. One the best tutorials I know is David Swenson's "First series". Cheers! P.S.: I'm still calisthenics noob though)

[@TrainingPal]

I've been doing ashtanga for a couple of months some time ago. I love it too.

[@MaxLenormand]

Great video, and very humble. I've been training for nearly two years, and done some of the same mistakes, yet by ego keep telling myself that I don't. I should probably stick a bit more to basics and stretching. Thanks for the video! 👍

[@damiaan7021]

I really like your videos man, you seem sincere and genuine and are very fun to listen to and to look at. Honestly you relaxing way of talking and just being realistic works so much better for me than other youtubers behaving extremely hyped up in order to make the video motivational. I never had this with anyone before but you made me want to get into Calisthenics. I'm still a big boy but after just a few weeks I already notice major improvement, not so much in physique yet, but a lot in performance.

[@mrprime9845]

The viking admits his mistakes & being humble. So...thumbs up! :)

[@MrMMAJER]

I feel what you saying here specially the parts of the joint injurys and the stretching. I have some elbow pain sometimes when I try the proper one-hand push up, or advanced tucked plance. You have encouraged me to do the things right, so thank you.

I just hit 42.....I'm not doing handstand push ups, planches, front levers.....But in a year, ( ive always had a combo dip, pull up station in the back yard, thing is like 15 yrs old.....) This past month ive gotten to where i can hold an l sit for 15 seconds, do 25 body weight dips.....i still cannot do an l sit dip, ....my pull ups have never been great, im at 4 , but solid form....thats where im gonna concentrate on....ahh...frogstand....all of these are on my dip station, my new mini dip station, or parallettes.....this really allows you to engage your forearms....doing them on the floor, is ALOT more difficult.....im really getting into it.... Great video....👍👍

[@sk2evolution]

Thanks for the sharing man. It's genuine and resonating. Totally agree on the importance of the fundamentals. Something to reciprocate: 1. I would add shoulder joints into on top of wrists and elbow you mentioned as part that takes long time for the ligaments and tendon to catch up with muscle strength development. It's complex with many elements, and they're recruited in high frequency in calisthenics. Think about when you are NOT straining shoulder. 2. Something related to the hasty-minded point: Know you goal and know you can't have all aspect at its peak performance all the time. As I accumulate knowledge and experiences along the way, I got lost in what to focus. I wanted to master all the moves, while maintaining the conditioning. There's just too much, especially when we have other things in life shouting for attention. So, I think set a clear goal at a time, and progress to it. You mind will be in peace and you can focus to get quality training result. 3. Less confident about this, but I will just share my experiential based opinion: All the investment count, in long run. I found the move-targeted training will be remembered by your body and complement other skills and moves indirectly in other time, even when I was not focus on that move anymore. So, it's not like you will lose a move totally once you stop practice it. Hope it helps. Cheers.

[@TrainingPal]

[@peterpetersky2152]

This is really GOLD! I've started with calisthenics 1 year ago and now I'm facing exactly the same things you've mentioned in your video. People practicing calisthenics should also teach others about the importance of flexibility and mobility. Beginners are mostly impressed with by those FL, MU, HSPU etc. Learning the basics and mastering them is, I think, the key to success.

Great video. I’m just a few months in to getting fit, and it’s really hard to think long term with my fitness goals. I just want to lose body fat and get more muscle definition, so it’s hard not try to get there as quick as possible and ignore getting stronger and building better habits that will help this become a lifestyle and not a short-term change. These videos are a good encouragement and reminder to slow down and build a good foundation for fitness. Thanks.

"Now I know that being humble and patient is crucial..." -- kudos to you.

[@soulrecalibration]

This video here is hands down the best advice I ever got regarding my progress in Calisthenics. Injuries, pain and total frustration hit me many times just because I didn't have the patience to progress slowly and correctly. Flexing? I wasn't even aware of how my stiffness held me back. A proper warm-up? I didn't even care because I wanted to jump in on doing my max reps of wide grip pull ups. Well.. To hell with rushing it. Now I never do a single pull up without warming up first. Master the basic exercises, respect quality over quantity, stay humble and be consistent if you want to progress freely in your Calisthenics journey. Thanks for this video bro, you really opened my eyes when I first watched it. I owe you one.

[@cyrylski]

This material is very helpful. My first mistake was rushing into dips before my shoulder joints were ready. I injured my rotator cups. I've read it's a common thing with calisthenics as people do not fully understand the chains of movement and while their biceps/triceps seem strong there are also joint connections and tendons that also need to be prepared for higher loads and it takes much longer for these parts to accommodate. Would you be willing to say more about this in your videos?
