[@eugenesong8357]

I'm glad I started by watching the basics video, these all seem pretty easy

[@comptepourparler6229]

XD

[@justinberber9848]

especially the one arm gymnastics ring pull-up. Piece of cake for Joe 6pack.

[@KemoSays]

I'm getting bored of these basics. Too easy.

[@ForeverSculpting]

Lmao

[@Samastano]

And I do mean ALL of them :)))

[@portaldo]

Basics - due to the simplicity of the movement patterns, not in relation to the difficulty level. Its like a lifter will refer to the Squat, Deadlift and the Military Press as basics, although he might be lifting a lot of weight on those movements. The Upper Body Strength Basics (some of which are on the video but there are others on my 10 Basics list) represent very simple movement patterns in a few different vectors. When those are addressed - a firm foundation for movement options is possible. As for myself - I am no master and of an average strength potential. I worked HARD to acquire those skills - each and every one and these days - I don't look much beyond... BASICS.

[@Carvalholk]

***** Can you send to us your 10 Basics list ? :)

[@hewhoseeks3608]

***** is it a secret what the two exercises you do a day are? you just left us wondering there ;)

[@closinginonclosure]

What is a "vector"? Did you intend to say sector?

[@jollycoop6704]

+closinginonclosure No, you can imagine a vector as an arrow that has a specific length and direction. For example if you would want to describe a force graphically you would do that by using a vector. For further information look it up on the internet.

[@jetlorider]

OUTSTANDING! he's bench pressing the Earth

[@sayazdir]

you mean pushup?

[@asura8495]

@@sayazdir earth downs!

[@MrTouchFish]

I should have known what to expect when Ido said "basics"...

[@NeoMororo]

Hahahaha

[@mikeknoebl3390]

exatly my thought :)

[@digwillhachi]

Cant wait to see the advanced movements

[@ATXpert]

Ido Portal-"They are basics for me because of the simplicity of the patterns, not due to difficulty level."

[@davidkuchar4366]

Thank you so much for creating some "basics" video for us who just got started. I am looking forward to some more intermediate and advanced staff soon!

[@asswuppin]

Amazing control. Impressive strength. Gracefulness is beautiful. This is what the fitness craze should really be about: Functional strength and control of one's body. My highest compliments.

[@eloraibyunivers]

It is now

[@Trig0r]

People seem to misunderstand the difference between basics and beginners...

[@philipfilippov128]

Those r very complex gymnastic movements actually

[@philipfilippov128]

That's the stuff a master gymnast does to win a gold medal

[@gergohun001]

What about the smith machine bench press and cable isolation curls?

[@MrRizo23]

( ͡ᵔ ͜ʖ ͡ᵔ ) What about them?

[@MrRizo23]

+Dennis V Thanks captain obvious :P Ido portal is mostly about functional and natural movements that don't use machines, he's mostly into calisthenics, maybe (?) with some added weight at times. .. and the guy who I replied to asked "what about smith machine bench press and cable iso curls? " And when I said "what about them? " I wasn't asking if they are good to do, I was asking: ( or thinking rather ) "what about those silly machine dependent exercises? you think Ido would waste his time on those? lol..

[@MrRizo23]

Nothing. I have no problem with kidding around :D Occasionally I might not get it when someone is joking or being sarcastic, esp. when it's typed and there is no hint... but hey, I'm only human, I make mistakes too, and sometimes I take things seriously, sorry about that..

[@gergohun001]

MrRizo23 It was a joke, calm down...

[@MrRizo23]

Alright, Fair enough... Some people are all about those kinds of exercises though, so it's not that hard for me imagine that someone would ask that kind of question without being sarcastic.

[@ciaranfoley9116]

How can anyone hate on Ido ? He demonstrates his skills as anyone would, but is highlighting the importance of basics read the end of the video and his comment. It's the hard work day in and day out that got him to that level and I'm sure most days he practiced basic. So inspiring !

[@joeperkinspt7]

Always nice to see a new video by ido. Inspiring stuff

[@erickminor]

BASICS!!! Just like "basic" quantum mechanics. Ido is a Kinesthetic BEAST!

[@BodyweightMuscle]

Love it! Invest in the basics for a few years and grease the groove when the investment pays off...

[@imed]

Very motivating Ido. Thanks for postimg. I am looking forward to get the basics up to the level you are demonstrating. Nothing is impossible!

[@r3spect4all]

Much respect, hopefully i have the dedication to practice more bodyweight excercises and be able to master these excercise like you do

[@Sorraiamustang]

It's amazing what the human body can accomplish if you play at it long enough. Ido you are fun to watch, very inspirational. Bravo!!!

[@emmakhann2376]

I watch your videos like music clips 😍 it is wonderful!

[@chucknorris5476]

Ido, I really love your work and find it incredibly inspiring, especially in regards to combat sports (such as your work with McGregor) my only issue is that I live in Washington, and there doesn't seem to be any outlet in my entire state where I can receive this kind of training. Any advice or plans for the future here?

[@getboredgetfit9189]

YOU ARE AMAZING! WE LOVE YOUR MOVEMENT!

[@tomfletcher1735]

Incredible and very inspiring. Thank you!

[@jdt617]

Amazing demonstration of strength.

[@MrHkhanirl]

Awesome work and great skills!

[@playfulsteps9249]

Beautiful video. I feel enlightened just watching you move.

This is art.

[@jannikfassbender1355]

[@PianoYogaWood]

Thank you for your lessons against gravity.

[@VisionsDark]

If a front lever is basic, you must be on another level of strength ✊

[@philyb3040]

Wow!! Amazing!! Very impressive!

[@LemonCat1000]

I watch this video daily - inspiring -Thankyou 🙏⭐️

[@Hector-cq9dt]

Ido you are the best..

[@akarosan4674]

Hey Ido Portal, I love you and your video.

[@Upperintheair]

impressive! There's the possibility to see your movement camp in the north of italy soon???

[@jonathanbabekeshava]

I hope to be able to these basics, and enjoy movement like you and your students do!

[@Ensostyle]

Идо, как всегда позёр ))) круто что сказать, видно что занятия у Соммэра не прошли даром.

[@jeezyalanwolf]

Beautiful teachings Ido.

[@whatdis]

[@icecorner87]

[@breakdancerQ]

[@Dj.ACiD.]

oh man he is so good so skilled!

[@LemonCat1000]

You Inspire me - Thankyou🙏🌸

[@singam3756]

Awesome!!! What do you think about Dylan Werner?

[@johnoconnor2648]

Great stuff, Ido. I, as someone who is about to get into movement and locomotion and all, am wondering, where stretching comes into the equation. I played soccer for more than ten years, so there is some catching up to do as far as stretching is concerned... It seems, that in order to succeed in doing your exercises, my body needs to be well stretched. So here is my question: Would you recommend me starting to stretch every day before I start the actual work outs or would you say, that in trying the work outs right away, the stretching will come naturally? Thank you in advance, Simon

[@purcitron770]

***** which upper body exercises do you recommend to reach this ability please? thanks

[@Gddtundeniable]

And the song is heavenly my goodness

[@karthik_silkroads]

looks like hes chillin at a middle school,

[@mullengary]

How can I get this version of Crazy ?? It's class mix

[@kanabdguez]

Which are the TWO exercises than you use? Cuales son los dos ejercicios que tu usaste?

[@RexDisaster91]

Ido you a beast, Im going outside to train now

[@germanhernandezdiaz6949]

Saludos desde tuxtla México Bro

[@Gddtundeniable]

These are basics because we should have never stopped doing things that made us this strong. Everyone should use ido Portal methods. It's the way people think about things that keeps them from being strong like this. I practice his methods myself and my students and it WORKS! But if you can't see it then it's not meant for you. Seriously everyone who watches this should aspire to have that kind of strength and nothing will stop you from doing it. You think people who are STRONG like that are poor? Hell no. They are to strong in the mind. You become super human. Look at how much ido charges for his training seminars and people pay it! Why? Cuz it works and it's his school of thought that makes it have an incentive. The man is brilliant and a blessing. Don't let it be a burden. I'll see him soon. #gddt #thereisnotomorrow

[@skylarqwerty614]

[@BeastAnd71]

[@abender06]

[@themasterothman]

[@ttattx]

[@ADFCHRONICLES]

[@benjaminduenas2164]

Lower Body Basics! please!

[@ggyanapintu4959]

Epic Respect 🙏

[@copperjaguar]

they are referred to as the basics because they are simple, not easy, but simple no big sequences or combos just simple movements that just so happen to require great strength, control and balance

[@kanluoshi2613]

Balance, strengt and control.

[@ramasaputra6205]

it took me 2 years to do all of his Upper body basics, but damn i wasn't dissapointed, it is a "Basic" exercise for all advance move.

[@s4mbuk4]

if all of this took you two years you either starting out being a pretty advanced person, got a magical amount of gifted genes, or you are simply lying^^

[@ibaikintana908]

Awesome as always Ido, and I wish I can master those 'basics' one day😢

[@fitbyfysh64]

Does anyone know or can help me with starring exercises to get to these exercises? I can hand stand but thats about it

[@100nesi]

Is it ido?

[@billabillaSticknagel]

about wich two exercises are you talking about?

[@daz1317]

What movements can i do that precede these 'basic' moves? im thinking wall-assisted variations, or including a weighted-vest?

[@Darkbi22]

Amazing

[@henrinikurautio5071]

Is there an advanced version?

[@vinacey]

So what are the two exercises then ido?

[@tech4252]

[@karthik_silkroads]

[@barkingshark6413]

Awesome.

[@nicolajslvsten4978]

beautiful

[@robotJox1256]

i am truly impressed by the touch butt method!

[@R6R17]

There must be a few intermediate 'movement patterns' before we start doing this crazy, amazing shit?

[@beastrengthbp1261]

I love this! I've nearly got all the exercises in this video down, but I know most of my work needs to be more generalistic, and I need to vary my movement diet as well. :)

[@rallealle7116]

Fantastic

[@carlos49g]

Wich are the weak links in the ki netic chains?

[@lukehammond5974]

Enviable wrist conditioning on those hollow back presses!

[@WhistleFantasy]

[@eladsheber]

I LOVE HOW HE WRITES UPPER BODY BASICS AND MOST PEPOLE ARENT EVEN CLOSE TO THAT KIND OF STRANGTH AND MOBILITY - THE THING IS THAT HES RIGHT!!!

[@THEFRIENDSOF1066]

What does he mean by "weak links in the kinetic chains" ?

[@bodyweight_student9062]

Great breakdown and incredible body control... Inspiring as always Ido. On another note haha, did anyone notice the spectator @ 1:49... Too funny.

[@snoflake9485]

[@kanluoshi2613]

[@Chris090577]

What is the music on 'Stationary swing side to side' video please.

[@davides5886]

[@Saifongjunfan]

I would be curious to know what these "two strenght exercise" are ? Maybe it's the 1 million dollar question :) I wouldn't be surprised if it was Olympic lifting kind of exercise !
