I was debating between "ONE LEG SQUATS: Tutorial" and "You CAN do one leg squats, my friend!" Leaving it as this for now, haha. "Start with something you can do and work your way up" is pretty much the theme of every exercise video on this channel. The rest is just details, haha.

[@BudBonkerson]

I got into your channel through "You CAN do pull-ups, my friend!" and it was the most encouraging fitness video title I'd ever seen. I think it's your brand advantage, personally 😋

Man your content is just so good. I'm a 300lb dude in his 40s just finally getting into fitness seriously for the first time in my life. I'm mostly watching more gym orientated videos because I'm hitting the gym 2-3x weekly - but even there somethings are body weight and your videos keep coming up when looking for technique on those movements. Your stuff is just so chill and positive. Not only teaches me what I need to know but also represents a little zen moment each time to. Most appreciated!

[@SOULSafeProductionZ]

I think I said this before, but what's so great about you is how you always talk about building up to the goal! Rarely do programs or people talk about this, they always SAY that something is beginners, but they always seem to start at an intermediate or even advanced level and then people struggle, get discouraged and quit... Keep up the good work!

Thank you for the help on this one! I’ve noticed that one of my quads has developed more than the other since starting to focus more on jump roping and squats.

Had some ideas of how to get to doing these but hadn’t thought of the staggered stuff - thank you for sharing!
