Too old to do much any of the things in these videos. I watch them for inspiration, Dominik is so full of life! Best word in his vocabulary is "BOOM" and he says it in so many ways. Bravo!

[@DominikSky1]

You are NEVER too old to do anything... If pushups are too hard, start w/ standing pushups (hands on a window frame), if you cannot do pullups start w/ standing rows etc. My point is no matter where you currently are there is always a progression to start your journey from!!! =D

Hey Dom, I started watching your videos years ago when you posted your first calisthenics workout tutorials. At the time, I was a skinny fat teenager with no passion. Watching your videos gave me so much love for calisthenics that it completely changed my life. To this day, I train every day and can do all the power moves I thought looked amazing when I was younger. Your channel gave me confidence, work ethic and a passion for something I will never let go of. Keep up the amazing work man, your English has incredibly improved over the years as well.

One arm overhead press with a kettle bell is a safer option for your back, so feel free to do it, if you feel your back spine hyper-lordosis during standart military press

A pro friend told me those can fuck up your shoulders on the long run, so don't go heavy on KB OHPs, use barbell or dumbbell, or HSPU instead.

This man always teaches on how to focus on basics. Thank for all your efforts.

[@Belleville197]

Philip Chubb (yes real name) from Mindful Mover INSISTS that weighted calisthenics are a waste of time... he is adamant about using OAC progressions exclusively and not doing weighted pull ups or chin ups at all. He also hates weighted dips.

[@Asadc1995]

I have talked with him about it. And he is hard to argue against. It is just me but i think that the basics will not necessary promise you that you can do a Planche/front lever but they do however imo makes the learning curve easier. But those skill specific things still requires practice

[@redditmonkeyofficial]

Well I learned every skill trough specific training. Now I'm going for the crazier stuff maltese,one arm handstand etc. And I had never done weighted pull ups and overhead press. This is why I love calisthenics you can try milions of ways to achieve your skill.

[@Asadc1995]

But we gotta agree one if a exercise selection that does not work for the single individual then it a waste of time

[@SC-ye3kw]

Just when I thought I've seen all you could do, you produce this video. Boom! Watching your videos is so motivating. I'm still dealing with a 20% distal bicep tear from last July which really set me back, but I'm still in the game and moving forwards. Thanks for all you do.

[@MrSasuke67]

So basically you recommend to get strong before training unilateral skills, and preferably by using a 5x5 stronglift methodology ? Put the ego to the side, and go hard on those fundamental movement patterns

[@ParitoshPotukuchi]

Yes 3X5 or 5X5.

[@keyser_söze23]

Exactly what you've posted, I started this method at the beginning of the first lockdown, for upper & lower. Goddamn my strength is going up & up, on monthly basis, and I was 40 this March. edit: do not neglect the accessory movements!

[@ParitoshPotukuchi]

Currently my weighted pull-up is 30 kg for one rep and Military press is 38 kgs for 5 reps. Need to get these numbers up, but also need to take care of those joints. Thanks Dominik. This was really helpful. I needed this now.

[@brianwilson8088]

Oh. Ok Dom. I'll stop doing one arm pull ups now.

[@ryanmaravilla1338]

Great tip from Dominik... tucked planche pushup... a body weight press

[@karthik_silkroads]

might be more likely to compensate with bilateral exercises, so some unilateral work can be useful in making you aware of strength diffs. i see your point with 1-arm pushups/pullups not being the most useful exercises for most ppl tho

[@jamsolid]

Good message! It's easy to lose the scope of progression. Health and wellbeing everyone!

[@sergiomedina3355]

Thanks Dom!!! I suspected I was not enough strong (and I'm not doing any unilateral exercise), but now it's crystal clear, so let's work smarter and harder with the fundamentals!!!

[@freehatespeech6804]

I'm training for the OAC with weighted chins. It's simply more effective to train both arms at the same time, and to avoid the junk volume that pre exhausts the assisting arm in the unilateral progressions in a non stimulating way. However, assisted one arm chinups also work. I know this because that's how I started training, which gave me a decent weighted chin up before ever training it directly.

[@master-stratocaster4737]

Hi! I have a question. Cannot find an answer anywhere. How much percent of extra weight (bodyweight percentage) does an L hang add to a pullup? I mean could it altogether be 130% bodyweight for example? (as opposed to a regular pullup being 100% bodyweight) (I mean perceptive weight obviously hahah) Sorry for all that rambling but I really wanted to make sure that what I had written was understandable.

[@Mike-jz8co]

hey dominic, do you think it’d be more beneficial to do weighted excercises or explosive excercises? e.g. weighted push ups vs explosive push ups

[@georgschmidt1252]

Weighted. If you are strong at weighted explosive will BE ez after some time. And its way more scalable and you can Track your Progress.

[@youwantmyname9208]

Explosive are good if you are practicing some transition movements, but weighted are mostly to build strength and aesthetics body, only downside is it won't teach you about the technique and was too specific

[@bhardwajutkarsh]

I agree that sometimes doing an exercise with both arms can be better at correcting the symmetry than doing unilateral exercises with same numbers but possibly with different mechanics due to habit. It is not just the numbers, one can still have different mechanics on each side that can potentially increase the imbalances.

[@mayukhsen8195]

One arm push ups have been a life changer for me, because I never based my life around gym Or equipments. I do One arm knuckle push ups (feet shoulder width apart) and One arm One leg push ups, been doing them religiously for 5 years.... Basically grease the groove everyday, 5-6 sets, I terminated sets once form broke down, sets ended with One bad rep. After 3 years, I got to a double bodyweight bench press. 200 kilo bench, the first Day I benched, Not the first set, the last one, at 102 kilo bodyweight. In my experience I have never seen guys who can do 15 great planche push ups bench that much (I mean double bodyweight).. There is a reason why One arm push ups work, its a simple pressing move with amazing core activation. You are just pressing. Pressing a large portion of your bodyweight, especially when you do it with your feet raised to mid thigh height. You build a lot of tendon strength as well. What you are saying could very well be true, but in the end, its about movement patterns, neurological grooves. I don't do pistol squats, never trained for them, but I can do 150 straight non stop (no rest between reps) atg squats, my legs are huge. I agree basic push ups can get you very big And jacked but one arm push ups are extremely beneficial if you are looking to add slabs of muscle. Just make sure you work the weaker arm first. Match the reps with the stronger arm. Even if you don't, a little strength imbalance is not a big deal. Every powerlifter and bodybuilder has it. You were my One arm push up Mentor, And I am grateful for it.

[@miquelordinas3006]

Hey Dominik! Regarding pull strengh, do you consider the muscle up a good exercice to include in our workouts? Just wondering cause i never see you doing it or mentioning it

[@coldfingers5915]

The problem I see with weighted pull ups is that it's hard to do them with the form that I like for the regular pull up which is really strict chest to bar. Now with the weighted ones even if you initially have the best intent to not cheat, after a certain weight the body wants to cheat the movement. I think it's maybe because the lats are strong enough but small scapular retractors aren't? Just a hunch...maybe I'm wrong. It's very rarely that I see a really strict weighted pull up(even just neck to bar ones). But yeah they do give you strength even when done with cheating, that's for sure.

I don't think the number of reps define how strong you are in one arm pull ups. I think 1RM weighted pull up is a better indicator of strength. For example, at 85kg I was able to do 75-80kg weighted pull up 1RM, and at the same time could do 2 one arm pull ups each arm.

One arm pull-ups, and Planche are shoulder destroyers. I'm 35 years old and I don't do them any more at all. I started at 25 and If you want longevity ( I wanna do, what I do at 70), trust me, it aint worth it. Around the world + Extra Core + LEGS, meaning glute's hips, hamstrings etc is all you need. Beware of low low dips as well, killer of your joints. Keep it simple, Ask your self when your 20, can do it at 70??
