I love how your message emphasizes that women should focus on staying healthy and functional through training, rather than achieving a certain look or aesthetic.

[@cheangaroo]

There was no mention of “women” but I get what you mean. Women are more conscious of their looks.

[@fnd6813]

@@cheangaroo​​⁠​​⁠ It's not that "women are more conscious about their looks", it's that they are socially judged to have a certain body and physical appearance.

Which results to what? Women being more conscious about their looks. Same result. Not trying to argue here.

Unreal how quality your content is. Every shot, cut, edit, background research, putting the work in, presentation, script writing, speaking tone, music choice, skill and progression programming. It's just insane how well everything is done.

[@sir.puppeteer]

You know, to be totally honest with you, i thought that you talking so much about the rings was for promoting them or something (like your own brand or a sponsor, which is so common on social media now). But i was wrong. You are genuinely explaining and helping out, giving every information from the reasons, to the homemade rings, to the full workout thought for every category of people. That is truly so sweet. Thank you. I mean it.

[@danceofthedragonbydavidlee]

HelloMeli, I'm 75 and I live in Bali. I teach qigong and a few months ago, noticing a decline in my body strength, I bought some rings and started training, I've noticed a dramatic increase in my strength and stability from training just a few months. You've absolutely awakened my imagination in this video and I really appreciate how literate your presentation is. I might just have to break down and buy some rings from you the next time I know someone's coming this way from AUS because shipping things to Indonesia is such a drag. Very inspiring video.

[@dragonfruit1586]

I think it's awesome that you differentiated simply going to the gym (or staying at home) and functional training that includes both movement and flexibility. Staying healthy shouldn't be complex! It just comes down to staying active, training stability, and working to become more flexible. 💪

the production quality and information in this video is gold

[@TauqeerKhanify]

While I love how she explains things, but what I admire more is the subtle Aussie twang, and her camera work, its solo work but lighting and angles show a deep artistic vein. It’s a talent.

[@bell_uh]

Your channel is so underrated, Meli!!! You have single-handedly inspired me to start my calisthenics journey. Keep it up! :)))

[@nopenope9945]

I'm male in 40s 235 lbs and about 9% body fat. I take a lot of different hormone compounds to "look" good but also to feel good. Some of those compounds and their quantities are absolutely riding the line of permanent injury to internal organs. I bought rings based on this one video alone. I just watch and try to duplicate. I feel so much more at peace than at the gym trying to tear my body down. I've GAINED lean mass and strength since adding your routine 2 or so weeks ago and it is fun and even spiritual. If I typed how much I added to my fly's and mil press nobody would believe it but this is the only thing I have changed. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

[@thatrabbit09]

I love how the video isn't merely informative but raises awareness too, on top of that, very fun, intriguing, and well made. You just made me fall more in love with calisthenics. Thank you for your channel 💙

[@CookieCandylandd]

Love how a lot of the information in this video was out of context, but very informative! And the editing was insane! Made me even cry a little 😢.

[@plisnonton]

actually started calisthenics because of your videos and still keep going, you're the coolest 🤍

[@Luke97979]

Meli, after +6 years of following/watching "fitness-youtube", I have to say that your content is one of the best I ever watched. Your approach is perfetly different: less stressed, more facts and above all creating meaningful content without generating clicks by displaying body parts! Keep it up, greetings from germany 😊

[@veautae]

the editing, the quality, the knowledge??? YOU ATE IT!!

[@elintilia2790]

Super impressed with the production value of the video and the quality of information presented! I started calisthenics in 2020 when I was looking for a way to move while cooped up at home. I'm in my mid thirties but feel fitter than I ever was in my 'prime'. I wish more people knew about this.

[@DILLIGER90]

I started working out with rings last summer and have seen incredible results, in fact never have I been able to progress to the point I am now (I have tried training at a gym with weights for a couple of years, and have trained muay thai unprofessionally for another two) but I still have a lot to learn. It never ends, but if you keep showing up, you keep progressing. I just wanted to state that while Meli's content is absolutely incredible and if you can spare the money to support her you absolutely should, if you are short on cash you can probably get wooden rings much cheaper. I got mine for less than 30 euros, I don't know what wood they're made from and to be fair her rings do look like higher quality, but the workout is the same and they still feel in my grip like the first time I grasped them. Again, I think Meli deserves all the success and support and I'm a big fan, but sadly in the world of today money is an issue and I know that someone with a similar financial situation to mine would be put off by the price. Don't let that keep you from getting a pair, these things can truly transform your health and body.

What an intelligent person.. realising what is best for the body instead of copying others

[@EmL-kg5gn]

This kind of explains why my obsession with climbing trees made me bizarrely strong as a girl

[@valdmertheii1354]

I have to say, this program seems perfect for my needs. I do several thousand mile long bike tours, so my legs are strong, but I have outrageously bad posture, core and upper body strength. This routine is perfect for me, as it combines strength training with core, and dynamic movements, yet is portable enough to bring on my tours.. Also Yoga just doesn't cut it for me, as I need more scalable progression and dynamism to be worth it. Thanks so much for this Program, I'm excited to dive in! - Alchemist Biker

[@AhmedOfKemet]

Not only the topic is interesting but the production of the video is top notch!!

[@RebeccaEyre-px1mo]

This is so weird. My sister told me about you yesterday. And said she wanted to install gym rings in the house. And the same day, you upload a video all on gym rings 😂 sometimes life throws you a massive sign 😊 I'm going to binge watch all your videos. I'm a beginner. I'm super weak. I've been depressed and sedentary since lockdown. I hope I'm something different in a few months. I've been clean eating for a month. Been walking long distances too. I'm ready to level up.🎉

Thank you, Meli! Your mindset is the one I've been looking for🏆❤️! All my life I've been trying to inspire myself to workout, but couldn't find a true motivation until the algorithm worked out in my favor and showed me your channel. The clarity, photography, music, and the message in each of your videos really moves and guides me to keep improving my lifestyle while enjoying the ride. Exercising is no longer an exhausting and flavourless task to complete. Thanks to you, training my body has become a true blessing, a daily gift from myself, a fun time to strengthen my mind and body. THANK YOU, QUEEEEEN!🫂❤️

So inspiring! I'm 52 years old and have gotten bored with typical resistance training. I had forgotten that as a child I used to love, love, love climbing on, swinging on, and hanging from monkey bars, tree limbs, whatever. I just ordered a set of similar rings and I'm so excited to start. Thank you so much for this.

I love this video, it answers so so many questions I've always had that were never answered in a way that satisfied me. I was anxious with the idea of 'exercising' since all the information I find tends to sound like its just based on barely tested theories. Questions like "doesn't training on machines train u only for limited movement?" "How do you workout for flexibility as well as strength without them clashing?" and those were usually answered with something like, "Just start now so u can see your body change sooner." which felt like being dragged into a cult, or persuaded to sign a contract u haven't read.

wow, loved this one! the very first thing i got myself when i started to train at home were rings and a pull up bar i can literally train my whole body just using those 2 and honestly i only use the pull up bar for hanging and pull ups and anything else i do with the rings or on the ground! so basically all you need are rings, pull up bar (mostly to use the rings on it) and a yogamat to prevent injuring your knees etc. when you work on the ground

[@wopspice]

I've had 5 shoulder reconstructions and watching some of the movements you do with your shoulders is incredible. I have rings, both at home and at the gym but I have to be very careful with my range of motion because if I go too far or put too much pressure on a shoulder, it can dislocate (particularly my right). Also, from all of the dislocations I've had, I tend to guard my shoulder quite a bit and won't let it go past certain points...like watching you twisting and moving your arms back and behind you had me cringing. I tend to stick with machines at the gym like the smith machine because it limits my range of motion and makes the movement more stable - plus I can add the safety stops as I've dislocated my shoulder at the gym and having a weight fall on you is no fun. I've been trying to figure out ways to increase my ROM so thank you for the video.

I have made the DIZ rings last year. I used the Bow-line knot for the handles and a Taut-line hitch knot to adjust the length of the rope. Its working great for me and the knots are also secure. with the adjustable taut-line hitch knot i can easily slide and adjust the length of rope without the need to untie the rope.
