[@GonzoTehGreat]

What's your opinion of the overhead press using dumbells or a barbell (either behind or infront of the neck)? I typically move from a bicep curl into an overhead press. If using dumbells I also sometimes also incorporate a deadlift beforehand, to make a compound movement which raises the weight from the ground to above my head and then back again.

[@agentofthewild684]

The black and white sections that pretend a neighbor is watching.....Fantastic. I have been watching your videos for years now and I can attest to your focus on movement. I have very bad lower back problems and these exercises help me stay mobile. I also do cold therapy walks in the snow with just shorts and shoes. My neighbors think I'm crazy!

[@Browny84]

I’ve been doing a lot of box step ups recently. Various heights, side to side, loaded, whatever. You can do shorter, quicker ones for cardio, higher, slower ones for strength and mobility. They’re also good when you want to just zone out to a podcast or listen to some tunes and get some movement happening.

[@RDS_Armwrestling]

I used to do them a lot as a finisher, and really loved them, but they ended up aggravating my lower back, though I don't think they were the issue, rather something else was upsetting my back and the step-ups were setting it off

[@Browny84]

@@RDS_Armwrestling yeah, most likely there would have been something that was tight up or down the chain.

[@kylereece1979]

I love the idea of mastering the Lateral Shoot Through, it looks so badass. Seeing you swivel and swish through that so effortlessly and quickly is inspiring. My cardio, speed in general is total shite, and Id like a bit more in depth look on getting that move right and how to pace the practice properly. Excellent video here yet again. Functional and factual .

[@eldorados_lost_searcher]

I think he has a video specifically about the shoot through and its benefits. But after hearing his critique of how he's improved in his performance of it, it'd be a good candidate for an update.

[@bxla1]

the humor, the info, the uniqueness. your vids are always a masterpiece and very helpful and informative

[@pranakhan]

Getting much better with your punches, for sure! There's more extension, and kinetic exchange between the blocking and striking arm in your combos. Everyone should strive for that steady, incremental progress while they're also getting out there & having fun

I really appreciate your channel for its unique content. I don't think I've seen any other fitness KZbin train so many different aspects of strength, endurance and fitness in general and share his ideas with the world. thank you a lot and just keep doing that...I´m sure it helps a lot of people

[@JonDodd-ds9vx]

Hi hope this reaches you well, ie my descriptions will be bad. I just tried combining some training. Like the knees over toes guys add to it the swing with the baseball bat weight, with over and around the head. Also it can be done with that lean back version with the knees go forward over the toes, as it changes the centre of gravity as your gentley swing. This can be done also with the squat that looks like a karate flying kick, the lean to the side changes the centre of gravity. Really pushes the core and concentration.

[@sebastianosleah]

Love it! Keep going! We need “The Bioneer’s encyclopaedia of superfunctional exercises and movement”

[@badbabyray]

1:32 finally! someone who DOESNT lock out on bodyweight squats and proceed to say "bodyweight leg training is too easy" I dont care who you are, stay in the hole and do 50 bodyweight squats without locking your knees out, your quads are destroyed

[@redmetalpanda9051]

Hey i loved the partial squat thing you showed, and i have made it into a partial jump squat and they work haaard i basically hop when im near 90 degrees, then squat back to the grass. Works harder if you jump in a direction of course.

[@dacedebeer2697]

So I love your content, you have such a holistic approach to athleticism and as someone getting back into shape in my 30s you have helped me a lot. That being said I'd like to give you advice on your form in martial arts. For someone as mobile as you are you are too stiff throwing punches. I suggest you do some slow motion shadow boxing, focusing specifically in doing the movement with the least tension in the muscles, only really flexing anything near the impact point. You'll get more speed and fluidity this way.

[@RightHookRR]

really like this top ten series youve been doing great to get all the videos ive watched over the years consolidated

[@meltossmedia]

Rope climb is severely underrated too! I can't do it that well tho

[@deeneely295]

I found that I actually like Kettlebells for curls but I do them a bit different. I keep the kettlebell inline with the forearm so it works my grip strength and throws some extra into the forearms.

[@TheBioneer]

Quite a lot extra, I imagine!

[@RDS_Armwrestling]

Armwrestlers use them like that, humbling how much less weight you can use!

[@calisthenicswBin]

@@TheBioneer what i do is i have adjustable dumbells so i put a lot of weight on one side and none on the other to train my forearm stability more this is really useful for sports like cricket, speaking of which can you do sport anaylisis videos?

[@BunkySpewer]

Anything with more emphasis on calves rather than always hams and quad is good. Crawl might be a nice warm-up for climbers too. Combining planche with L-sit, V-sit, and shoot-through might be a good challenge short routine. What is your favorite for rear delts? Definitely do top 30.

[@kennycherry7684]

Hey can you do a deep dive into L sit? What are some beginning rep ranges or exercises to work up to get to you? The shoot through is another maybe a rep range or any other tips.

[@Andi.Plans2]

I’m currently overweight, and doing CrossFit 2-3x a week, but do you have any suggestions to get stronger at pushups, burpees, and maybe be able to perform a pull-up and handstand/handstand push-up? Deadlifts and back squats are my strongest , but any cardio and upper body weight work need some major help…

[@leodiaz970]

Thank you for your videos

[@angeldaviddiazruiz2279]

[@maforo85]

Thanks for including jump rope. It is of one the most important exercise one could do. It exercises all parts of your body. It helps in anything you do in life from work labor, other exercises, sports, etc. The jump rope is cheap, less than 10 bucks, fits in your pocket and you can take it anywhere. Just 10 minutes a day. It should have been in your first video but anyways it is highly recommended.

[@79E13]

[@sidcasino6335]

I watched your first video late and felt like it would be silly to point out what I would add. Incidentally, I would have pointed out hangs, crawling, and weighted carries. Fantastic list. Very validating for my just-a-guy self doing silly stuff like this trying to stay in shape however/whenever I can.

[@chamoy2864]

Another great video! I’ve purchased your book a few months ago . My goal is to become functional and to improve my martial arts. My role model is batman. I’m wondering if the workout in the book is better than the batman workouts you’ve made for my goal. Do you have any exercises I should include in the workout from the book for my martial arts? Also, when is batman 2023 coming? All of us viewers love the batman videos you’ve made. Keep releasing amazing content! Love from Romania!

I know that you've touched on a lot of different topics for how to manage pain in your back, elbows, knees. But do you think that you could do a video about practices that people can implement to manage chronic pain overall. There are opioid epidemics all over the world because people suffer with chronic pain and they don't know how to deal with it and I'm just curious if you would be interested in making a video about how to help manage some of those things.
