[@fritzbox6764]

Mani the Monkey Hey Mani, since you said you experiment with the planche lean, I have another hard push-up variation for you: pseudo planche push-ups. Great accessory for planche workouts.

[@paumoreno7929]

Mani the Monkey check the book: overcoming gravity. Its the best book about body control- calisthenics.

[@andregravelle415]

amazing video I really like your big parallettes where can I find a set like that ?

[@roadrunner5451]

Hi bro, my only question is about reps, how many? or how many secs? or I just do it till I not fall?, btw good video.

[@goldenfish77]

[@reinosteelframe9848]

Gracias amigo!! Mereces miles de visitas porque aqui falta buena informacion, como esta, y sobran TV stars

[@carlostaisho7890]

Gracias 😃

[@user-sr7fo5fe6x]

Fantastic vid. Thank you for sharing. (Crow is also called Frog by some youtubers...)

[@Rondaris1946]

Great performance, I like the no talk as well.

[@roryevans8109]

Awesome calisthenics progress, Mani. Can you do a full planche?

[@CaioWT]

Mani, you should do the close grip push up in a more hollowed positiong. It helps do much to stabilize the movement.

[@maximovargas6471]

yo!!wow!!! Great!!!

[@sophierantzau4663]

Mani, this is great, thankyou. I am just about to start working out with paralettes, which ones should ie get, low, high, low travel ones? 🤔

[@robweinberg9396]

great video. are there standard heights for low and high parallettes?

[@michaelmcalpine4082]

Hi. Thanks for your video. I have been trying to understand what sort of parallette bars I should buy. I am just going to get started so wanted to discover what I need. It seems that higher bars are used most often and that it is handy to have a lower set. I also appreciated your set of exercises as a guide to getting started, which exercises I can try and potential progressions. Are there stretching / flexibility exercises to build in?

[@julianporcel8184]

Good content, mate. What kind of socks do you use?

[@MonkeyBarsEveryday]

nice

[@utuberoni3546]

Thank you! Does the Shoulder Press build shoulder mass? How many to do?

[@diamephbaal]

I somehow got the feeling you were levitating..! :O

[@PeterEmski]

How many series, reps etc you think beginner should do ? Till failure ?

[@keysersoze5920]

Great tutorial! Also, what brand of parallettes are these?

[@nrntlp445]

I'm following you I want to start calisthenics as a regular exercise

[@kiwicraft1]

Are you planning a video on nutrition? Would be so happy :)

[@shalokin]

Hi, could you please inform of the distance between the bars (centre to centre) on the high parallettes please, and whether you think this is the best dimension for you, many thanks

[@emjay2911]

Tucked hold is actually difficult for me but all the L sit exercises came to me within a week

[@DavidBertossi]

Great video! How high are your parallettes? Thanks!

[@mr.golden3922]

You can put the parallettes on a tablet and your feet on a Chair to do good dips. Also you can take 2 chairs and put the parallettes between them for dips

[@mingjae7309]

Hi, what kind of movements we can take benefit from a low parallette but can't perform it well on the higher one?

[@kristofbrauning2831]

Hey Mani, deine Videos sind echt klasse! Ich habe auch vor 3 Monaten angefangen zu bouldern und wollte dich fragen, wie ich mein Training abseits von der Boulderhalle gestalten könnte. Vorher war ich eher der typische ‚Pumper‘ im Fitnessstudio. Zusätzlich bin ich ca. 1.90m groß und wiege aktuell 92 Kilo bei einem KFA von ca 15%. Daher habe ich die Ernährung schon angepasst und gehe aktuell 2 mal die Woche 2-3h in die Boulderhalle. Jedoch frage ich mich wie ich 4 mal die Woche Sport machen kann, auch Körpertaining abseits vom Stumpen Hantelstemmen? Würdest du mir Calisthenics/Stability Übungen für Zuhause empfehlen? Bzw wie würdest du das Training ansonsten gestalten? Wünsche dir noch einen schönen Abend!

[@maxtaxe651]

Does this work for pushup handles aswell

[@SHIFTKICK]

Mani, what type of sets, reps, and times (for isometrics) do you recommend using? Do you normally do all these exercises in a single session or focus more on a few?

[@Northstar2000]

10 by 10

[@brandonfarley5297]

Calisthenics seems to focus on the upper body. are their any exercises that focus on the lower? like building out ypur legs?

[@dimaratosgeorgiadis2672]

Where can i buy these, can u give me a link please?

[@dadisapanisa]

Can you please tell me size parallettes from video?

[@winstonsmith7377]

what is your opinion on the ab wheel as a core exercise? Is it as useful as L-sit progressions?

[@ManitheMonkey]

For sure a powerful device. You see there are so many possibilities to train abs.. just pick one and just do something, don't overcomplicate things and you will run around with a six pack in no time.

[@frederickcorpuz9341]

Push ups: standard, deep (hands by obliques) , close grip Dips Shoulder press (tucked butt, lift feet off at lowest point) The crow L-sit: tucked, one-legged, straddle, basic, elevated Shoulder holds: Tucked planche, shoulder press hold, hand stand leg hold Transitions: Knees to chest, tucked hold to L-sit, tucked hold to tucked planche, , L-sit to tucked planche

[@frademuro80]

Hey this is really a great tutorial for a beginner like me! What is this distance between the parallels?

[@keithgoddard4192]

From your elbow to the tip of your middle finger is the standard width, as far as I know.

[@DevinsFishingReports]

What kind of paralettes are the big ones?

[@Mark-te8ky]

what are the best parallettes?

[@GoldfishLiberty]

a tuckhold for me is insanely hard even when i protract my scapula

[@pognarchy]

2:17 I have no clue how that one was easy but the rest seem about right haha

[@lil_black7726]

what song is that?

[@rustyhoops]

One man’s easy is another man’s hard😂😂👍

[@nogga7716]

What grade do you think is your geneticall limit?

[@thekingkgr641]

Hy buddy thanks

[@vYORKv]

What are the dimensions of the larger metal parallettes? I’m building my own and looking to copy the ones you used in this video.

[@roystongibbs7189]

I'm going to build mine out of 2" pvc pipe in the near future.

[@harshhari473]

What about full Planche and Planche pushups

[@jgrilo8623]
