Drop a thumbs up on the vid to show your support 👍. We're all on this calisthenics journey together legends, don't stop learning.

[@objectreborn.artsewing]

I always so appreciate how thoughtful, informative, and well spoken Daniel and guests are. I would not be enjoying so much of what I do at my beginner-intermediate stage if it weren't for the clear messages about patience, consistency, and variety. And I always feel confident that I'll know how to protect my body during sessions ✌️

[@Akagami753]

So right

[@sasorijavec5606]

Thank you for the comprehensive information and professionalism shown by both of you. I am 52 years old and have more than thirty years of training behind me. I have a family and two children of school age and two jobs and little free time, which I devote to my training. I've been training on my own for most of my life with weights and clubs and a mac, and I applaud the effort you put into the education you share. Thanks again and good luck in life.

[@menbah]

Really like that he brought up suggestions for people who can't even lift up into the tuck planche. Most planche progressions just skip that assuming that peoeple are already at that level.

[@nikola4962]

Three years of work, just so I can flex on my friends with a full planche... I'm in.

[@Wordisbond23]

i'm here with ya buddy

[@sussayn]

You are doing something here for us that nobody else is in the industry. I've made so much progress in only 2 months. Thank you! 🙏🏼

[@patatica]

Awesome progression! It will keep me busy for the next four years!

[@filipmokrejs3611]

You are reading my mind. I'm on a cut rn and literally yesterday I wrote in my to-do list to start learning a planche. Love your work, bought my rings because of you, sending love from the Czech Republic.

[@oliverdelacruz]

I really like the way Simon broke it down, very thoughtfully and discretely. Maybe one of the better videos I've watched on the topic; watched it through. Thank you very much, @FitnessFAQs!

[@aurelienyonrac]

Man, I love those interview. So clear and precise.

[@RonaldoR_Jr]

Perfect collab! Amazing tips! Thank you! One day I will buy your programs, for sure.

[@user-gv8vh1gz2b]

Awesome interview! Excellent questions and answers. Thank you very much!

[@AZ-qs4nw]

This was simply great. Daniel, thank you!!

[@SynQ86]

Dont forget to mention that the taller a person is, the more difficult and near impossible it gets to get a full planche, no matter how fucking strong you are.

[@Liamslost]

I’m coming back to calisthenics after a break due to traveling and this was the kick up the ass I needed to get back on that planche journey. Thanks Dan and Simon 💪🏻

[@claudeakel]

asking the real questions! thanks for sharing!

[@riazb66]

Great session. I really appreciated seeing both of you discussing training. I follow both of you and feel like I am cheating on either of you when I follow some training techniques so now I don’t feel so bad. Lots of great advice, especially the tuck progressions. It was also good to hear how long it took Simon to achieve his planche.

[@kexerino]

Answered pretty much all my questions. Awesome video

[@user-uq1sk6dv6v]

thank you so much, putting support under the bar to find balance and how to place the body worked for me, can't be happier

[@lhupog1]

Amazing video. A few months ago I started my journey to planche, currently I'm almost at a decent tuck planche. I noticed my shoulders are ready, have been for a while, the problem is with abs compression.

[@milesmorales397]

I actually just bought Simons program last week! Perfect timing 💪🏾 It’s been great thus far

[@psychedwellness77]

Great information! Thanks guys!

[@christophertorres8225]

My 2 favorite calisthenics youtubers in one video!

[@mattcain07]

Great video!! I am ready to full send planche training!!!

[@chrisfrederick7283]

I enjoyed learning how he breaks down his training to achieve certain movements- like the planche. I have been stuck on the foundational exercises and figured I had to stick to those. I just don’t have the time to keep adding more exercises to what I already do. Now I see I don’t have to stay with my core exercises and can always go back to them. I learned that I can train for certain movements now that I have a base. I have to give it at least 8 weeks and to really achieve an advanced movement at least 2 years. This will make my workouts more fun and I feel they will only help my base by developing smaller muscles I haven’t yet worked in my base training. Thank you for the informative interview.

[@bouteilledeau6016]

Really good video. I appreciated a lot watching it.

[@Johny40Se7en]

Brilliant wisdom as always from this channel, thanks a lot.

[@MarkoObradovich]

Thanks for info. I am following your advices since I subscribed to your channel, so I'll just keep being consistent 😁

[@angelfrnco7604]

Good content Daniel. Load of information.

[@adryldimaapi2522]

I wanna see Daniel doing the full planche!! That would freaking double triple motivate me!!!

[@cagri5360]

awesome video!❤ I like both of you guys! You've both progressed in this way and able to define clear and thoughtfull step by step lets say instructions.

[@tisyo0705]

So helpful!

[@emanuelestaffieri5922]

Awesome content❤️ Must watch, regardless of skill level, it's valuable for pros as well as for beginners!

[@zzwk24]

Fantastic video and really provides perspective for people who do not train hard, frequently, or consistently. Those are 3 keys to success and having a base in any specific exercise isn't a requirement, just dedication and discipline.

[@Hey0CaptainjAK]

very informative!

[@mayurtirpude9367]

Amazing video with amazing information

[@seanpgallagher22ify]

Really helpful.

[@Bmw_drifts]

Really good content in this, got my tuck Planche after 3 months 💪

[@mrsbootsworkouts]

Amazing core strenth!

[@aminemoud.6485]

nice video bro super use full!

[@BoozewithNick]

Top notch content. I’ll be reintroducing planche progressions into my training soon, but wasn’t sure about programming and wasn’t sure what to do with pseudo-planche. I knew if I came to Fitness FAQs that I’d get it figured out in no time. As always, this channel is a treasure chest for the bodyweight community.

[@Un1234l]

Great knowledge gems

[@tylerhoose3750]

Super helpful. I started calisthenics in 2018 with the goal to build up to the planche. 2022 kind of platuead and couldn't really progress further in my training. The start of this year I have been focusing on building strength and using weights and then go back to my planche training.

[@robertgschiel680]

Really good video!

[@higherresolution4490]

Top discussion and instruction, Daniel! I just watched this for the third time to make sure things stick. Very useful for many people like myself. Much thanks. Both of you have excellent outdoor facilities for calisthenics. I wish cities and counties here in Southern California would spend a little money and do the same thing. Then again, with 80% of Americans being either overweight or obese, this is not likely to happen.

[@yboriginal01]

Definitely gonna mix some of these in

[@alexclark9083]

I'd never heard anyone break it down so much before. I can easily hold dip position, going to try the block under the knees next

[@bewarethefuryofapatientman]

the best content you ever get is Daniel and his tremendous guest

[@cheetahking9114]

Thank you. Just learned something new, every other video talks about obtaining a planche in a month or in 3 months. This is my first time hearing someone that is skilled in it saying it will take a year +. Now I won't spend too much time in my head questioning why I haven't perfected it yet in 4 months. Thank you for your knowledge.

[@MattGuitarCoaching]

Awesome video! That whistle at 9:57 totally got me.

[@JungseHandbalance]

Calisthenics teacher & Planche monster!

[@aleksgalas5566]

that didnt teach me too much but it reminded me of some things. great video

[@markzambelli]

Thankyou so much for this breakdown... it was soooo clear and I am in awe as to how you peeps in the calisthenic world can utilise your muscles in such ways... to wax poetic for a moment (forgive me my hyperbole)... we are so lucky nowadays to learn this indepth info from practitioners such as yourselves... it's akin to the ancient Greeks or Romans being flys-on-the-wall in the Mount Olympus Bath-halls when Apollo was chatting to Zues, Neptune or Athena as to just what stretches he would perform whenever he needed to inspire the 'locals' down on Earth to erect another temple to him... may KZbin long be the vessel whereby we obtain our dose of 'Ambrosia' from such calisthenic-gods as yourselves. Thanks again.

[@marcusallen8053]

The best breakdown i have seen from a consummate professional.

[@guilhermeneri1035]

what an excellent video.

great video

[@varunahlawat4863]

wow, changed my perspective!

[@kingfat187]

Simon is a beast

[@g.eeducation251]

It's taking me about 3 years and still not floating ... But it's getting much closer!

[@andreaperuzza408]

I have a good base of strenght, i went up to 52 pushups and 11 pullups but i can't seem to get to the tuck planche. I am going to start doing more volume and try the tuck planche without bringing the knees so high. Thank you for the informations!

[@CatchingDinosaurs]

i love that there are basically super humans who can do stuff like this, i consider myself to be pretty strong after a year and a half of calisthenics. i cannot planche, i appreciate being humbled.

[@tsbts3990]

Bros bicep is huge💪

[@mutzel1119]

"For beginners made easy". Just note that if you aren't already a beast calculate six years plus in which you shouldn't do a lot else 🤣 But jokes aside, the information provided really is comprehensive and comprehensible, top notch! 👍👍👍

[@athul_here_]

So true

[@idrissawane2059]

Guys got real Gs

[@emi2047]

Thank you very much, this was very informative. How many sets and reps should be done? I have never trained isometrics, so I would like to know how do they compare to conventional repetitions regarding hold time and number of sets

[@nicoinostrozalopez]

El crossover más esperado por Latinoamérica unida!!! 🤯

[@xabiergarces6862]

I loved the video, I started doing calisthenics 2-3 years ago and I can assure you that consistency in training is what will lead you to generate good results. Just like the pull-ups, or the pulldowns. This 'guide' of exercises to get to do the plank is great, and I will put it into practice. I have done some of these exercises and they are really difficult, especially for someone who has a lot of leg like me (past footballer lol).... I think the elastic bands are important to get strength as you said but also to 'mimic' the movement and know where to put more strength for example. What you have to keep in mind is what you said almost at the end: 2-3 years to get the full plank, this is a marathon... not a 100m race....

[@Connor-s1k]

The timeline is both motivational and scary 😅 It makes me feel better that the tuck planche has taken me a good month to get, but it goes against my impatience. I guess patience is the soft skill of calisthenics I need to learn

[@dudejoe8390]

I quit training planche about a year ago after trying to get to tuck for over a year. My APT was going against my training. I spent the next 7-9 months doing general bodybuilding with calisthenics and weights including legs + dynamic handstand progressions & conditioning with chest to wall or a box. I gained about 17 lbs in weight. Out of curiosity I tried doing tuck planche yesterday but I ended up pulling off a straddle with knees bent! It felt so light and effortless. But I couldn't control the balance/form for long and held it for 2-3 seconds. I think I might pursue planche again. I'm going to keep my current programming because traditional planche training has not worked for me at all.

[@CarlYota]

Training the planche as a skill will only do so much if you don’t have the shoulder strength to lift the load. It puts an insane leverage in your shoulder joint and those small muscles have to do a crap ton of work to counter that torque. So I would definitely say to get your shoulders as balanced g and strong as possible, especially front delts. And the best way to do that is with weights, not failing to do the planche over and over. As you’ve found out yourself.

[@clownposs1]

I haven't seen a video yet where people talk about body proportion for this static exercise. This is extremely important, because an athlete who is 1.60m (most of the gymnasts) will be able to do the full planch faster than an athlete who is 1.80m or more. A smaller person usually has short legs which brings the center of gravity closer to the pelvis. Contrary, a person who is tall in height moves the center of gravity away and this will require a greater effort and a deeper lean....

[@antoinechristopherofficial]

2-3 year’s DDDAAAMMM !!!! I have a ways to go, I’ve got to work harder that is to long and records are meant to be broken 😀👍🏾💪🏾🙏🏾

[@eddie995863]

I feel attacked 😂 I would never know how to not stop practicing multiple skills in my weekly routine. My OCD will not allow me to just stick with one thing. It must all be balanced

[@aditya-rz2ze]

❤

[@coreym491]

nice pec jump

[@miqdadali2791]

honestly wish I could like the video twice

[@g.eeducation251]

I like that 2 to 3 year note.. maybe I need up to 18 more months to get full planche... Already been going for 3 years.

[@patrickbianconi1817]

Really nice well done video you two! Thanks a lot to you and @Simonster

[@lchantyv9678]

Front lever for beginners pls

[@idanissYT]

How do we keep the bicep safe from injury when training for the planche?

[@alphabeta8403]

[@themusicplayerrjs4055]

[@joshuacommons6025]

What is the optimum frequency and volume we need to train at?

[@jeroenlookman4831]

Only thing i missed in this vid is how long should i be striving to hold a planche progression for optimal progress

[@ed.progress]

0:28 the picture shows the posterior deltoid, but still good video, thanks!

[@Leonidas-eu9bb]

It's no secret that bigger legs are a big handicap. I would go so far to say there is no guy doing a full planche with muscular legs (i know the bodybuilder planche. it's a rare exception on PEDs). So is the best approach to lose leg mass? especially lower legs/calvs. For you lucky guys being able to do a full planche. Try to do a strict full nordic curl and you know what i mean. You will fail.

[@antoniocontreras8219]

I learned that’ll take me 3years

[@jonginny9879]

Can you make a video on how to get over the really nauseous and almost vomiting stage? This happens everytime I try alittle harder but I can't get over it and It turns me off from the gym or working out bc I don't wanna ruin the experience for someone else but also discourges me from pushing myself

[@gloglebag]

wow what that freestanding bar?

[@figurebetes7843]

" Hi I'm Simon and I specialize in Calisthenics, which building strength through bodyweight training"

Long long video ❤

[@maniyadav7956]

I am trying to keep my biceps forward. but they keep turning to the sides (facing each other) , any suggestions !

[@BlitzMasterYT]

It was quite useful! He said people should focus on a few skills. So how many skills is OK to practice at a time before adding another?

[@dilljordan7303]

2 One push one pull

[@Miam_miam_la_gauffre]

In my experience 2 strength main skill is fine, as long as they are not in conflict (front lever + planche work for ex, flag and planche not so much) You can also throw in exercises that are complementary, like handstand pushup with planche, but that will slow down one and the other I think. Plus you can add skill that are not strength related, like handstand, middle split or stuff like that In the end, the secret is just not to overwork a muscle group 😅
