Resuming Preparation level: - 2 minutes plank - 2 minutes rear pushup hold - 1 minute side plank - 1 minute active hang - 30 sec ring support Basic exercises (1st block): - 3 x 15 pushups - 3 x 15 inverted rows - 3 x 15 V sit-ups - 3 x 15 squats Basic exercises (2nd block): - 3 x 15 dips - 3 x 10 pullups - 3 x 10 leg raises - 3 x 10 cossack squats Now, let's get to work 💪😁
I don't think 30 pull-ups would be considered "basic" by most people, the rest does not look preposterous. Well, 45 dips is a lot of dips. I think he is assuming you are very lean. Most people are not that lean, so full body weight stuff, especially with arms, could be difficult. Set standards wherever, but they should be of similar difficulty for each exercise...for the average body build...not for 5% body fat gymnasts. Basic exercise for basic bodies.
At 66 years old, I can do all of these except the dips, pullups, and the leg raises. Using some scaling, I can get 3 sets of 8 dips, 3 sets of 5 pullups, and the leg raises on a bar with bent legs. I am going to start training the previous 3 exercises. I think I can get the minimums that are called for, but it will take some time. Overall, this is a worthy challenge for a senior. At 30, this sequence would have been a piece of cake.
I'm not doubting you but I'd like to see it. I'm 47, 6'2" 175 so I'm not carrying any extra weight. the push up challenge here is easy, but I'd like to see 3 sets of 10 pull ups. that's pretty hard. the older I get, the fewer I find myself able to do.
Love your version of the V-sit .I usually touch my toes but like the idea of touching the floor instead I can't wait to try this in my next workout session.
In general Gymnastic athletes can do more body weight exercises than other athletes. Thethicker the bar the more difficult the exercise . Those with shorter arms have a bio mechanical advantage in performing dips, push-ups and pull-ups .Those with little body fat obviously have a similar advantage . Last time I looked the standards for pull-ups and push-ups in this video were about equivalent or higher than those required by the Marines and are far above the numbers that most men in their 20s and 30s. I congratulate those viewers past the age of 40 who can still perform these exercises , since men start losing about 1% of their muscle mass each decade past 30.
i train with landmine and kettlebells and resistance bands. the best thing i bought recently was dip/push up bars. i find that doing calisthenics is challenging and a great thing to add to daily moves/workouts. ab wheels are another great tool to have. simple body weight moves can make you so much stronger.
66; 3 x 18 correct executed pull-ups with broadest grip + 1 x 20 shoulder grip (2 times a week as start of shoulder work out) Every day: pushups 3 x 40
Man, i like your narrative style and explanations.. Also you have wonderful accent for people whose mother language is not English.. It's pretty understandable.. You are an expert; know your work and i can get all necessary info from you.. That's why i like your videos 👍👍
Same with dips. With proper form, 3x15 takes a great deal of strength. I can do 3x10 after training for around 9 months. And that is on p-bars. I can barely do 1 ring dip.
@@MultiDatura thumbs down, what are you even doing! ... wait wait... thumbs up, you're still able to do 20 pull ups. Good job for being able to still do pull ups!

Thank you for your videos and powerful words! You've helped me a lot! I have already watched every one of your existing videos and I will gladly watch every your next video! P.S. Some of your videos I have probably watched more than a 100 times.
👉🏻 All these exercises done with the proper form as shown in the video makes all the difference here. Most people can’t even maintain proper push up position let alone the perfect plank or dip.
Excellent video, Adam! I wish you had a training center here in the Newport Beach/Costa Mesa area of California. I really like the exercises you have specified here in this video. As usual, I'll share this one with friends.
Doing your level 3, such as dips or pull-ups, for those of us with bad arthritis such as in the shoulders, a tad easier, TBQH. I find those planks tough, while the pulling or pushing is easier, especially for us 70++ yo people. I enjoy and appreciate your videos, thanks
I'm sure you can do 3 sets of pull ups. 12, 10 , 8. Done. Hold on the last set. Also, the number doesn't matter as long as your form and engagement in the muscle group is used. At least you're in the upper group already for being able to do even one set. Ask random people how many pullups they can do at the supermarket. You'll be surprised how many people will even tell you they can do one or two.

I’m 44 and start today with a cold shower , 1 hour of strength training with resistance bands and dumbbells arm wrestling legs and core , then a 16 mile bike ride in pouring rain with 1600 ft of climbing then in the evening 100 chin ups , 50 pull ups and 50 press ups in sets of 20 and 10 in the space of 15 min with some pronation and supination 😊 although I do partial pull ups for arm wrestling. I already do plank but I’ll add side plank
Brilliant I am 48 and do most of these several times a week in addition to skipping and short sprints People think i am in my mid to early 30s Brillant video
I would find some of setups difficult to find at my gym, especially the rings. Nevertheless, variations could be found. It’s hard to argue against the recommendations, a healthy body weight would be essential.
I was able to hit all these numbers two years ago when doing calisthenics only. Then I startet to hit the gym 4 times a week. I have gained 12 kg in that 2 year timeframe and now I can only do 13 dips and 8 pullups at a time. 😂
The problem is that these videos are for people mostly in shape. I am exercising in my mid-50s and have lost 60 lbs but i am 250 lbs still and cannot do 3 sets of 15 pushups on flat ground lol My arm strength to weight ratio is not ideal because I'm just still too heavy. Similar ly with many of the other other exercises. These are fine if you 200 lbs and under.
I’m pretty much there perhaps hanging raises and dips a bit lower in reps. If I lost body fat I’d been well above everything as I’m 100kg with a bmi of 30.
It's worth it. I have the b-bars from baseblocks, and they are phenomenal. I also picked up some rings, but had difficulty finding a place to hang them. If the same is true for you, look into duonamic's rings + doorframe attachment. You can hang them in a doorway without causing damage to the frame, and it lets you work out indoors. The doorframe attachment comes with handles by default that are perfect for dead hangs, and it takes maybe 2 minutes to swap them out for the rings. Lastly, check out the X3 bar. It's a plate/bar/band setup that allows you to do resistance training at home. It's equally as portable as the rings, and gives you a way to build strength without having to worry about stability the way rings force you to do. I love being able to deadlift, squat, or do an overhead press without having to worry about hurting myself like with traditional weights.
"They don't give anything and expect get everything" is how I realise too late for this kind of topic. Bad food, bad fitness education, and no continuous guidance for youngsters are the keys of how bad our health is (especially in this century). Functional movement is less appreciated nowadays 😅
I think I can do the majority of these. Though I will say despite being able to easily rep out like 30 push ups in a row. I suck at chest dips. I usually get to 10 and am approaching failure. Granted most of the time dips are usually further into my work outs when I've already benched, done tricep work, and shoulder work. I've never tried that reverse plank before, but I've certainly done 2 minutes for a standard plank. And 10 pull ups in a row is challenging, but possible. They became harder when I made sure to lower myself all the way, before starting to go up again, when before I would probably go to about 80% of the way down before going up. That being said I'm not a gymnast, just a body builder who dabbles in strength training. I didn't even know Cossack squats were considered a legit exercise. I thought they were just a warm up exercise for mobility, and for actual barbell squats. Kind of the same for just the standard body weight squat. I could do 50+ for 5-6 sets, which I have done before just for some extra burning after an actual leg day.
Thank You for this. Question: I've generally been in decent shape for most of my 62 years...but after an injury last November, I stopped training altogether, now I can barely do 3 pullups and 10 pushups! If I wanted to follow your perspective here, could I do the Preparatory level exercises (3 times a week) for a few weeks, then move on to the First Block when ready?
That's a great idea. Based on the calisthenics bible Overcoming Gravity, the only thing more dangerous than a beginner is someone who used to train that tries to pick. upright where they left off before injury. Progressively work your way up and listen to your body! :)
I struggle with my shoulder dislocating when put in certain positions due to a rugby injury. Rear push up hold is particularly effected by this, is there a similar exercise you could recommend or any good rotator cuff exercises to strengthen my right shoulder and limit the dislocations?
I have been doing pull ups, decline push ups, dips and other body weight excercises for 1 year and i still cant do any holds or feel like i am progressing, i am doing ring work outs for most stuff but not sure where to go next
What gymnastic rings do you recommend, 28 mm or 32 mm ones? My plan is to do dips as I've got a pull up bar already. What rings do you use and is it true that 32 mm ones are better for pushing exercises and 28 mm ones for pulling exercises?
The number of bodyweight exercises someone can do is dependent on how much someone weighs, so having standards for number of exercises someone should be able to do to be at a certain strength level doesn't make sense. Most of the strongest people in terms of total weight lifted would not be able to do many of these exercises, nor would they ever be gymnasts. Why because they weigh a lot. On the other hand, a 120 pound bodyweight trained person would be able tons of these exercises. You can also see this in kids. Kids can usually do many more push-ups and pull-ups than adults can do. Why? Because kids don't weigh a lot in comparsion to an adult.
Great video! But one question is left: Why 10 pull ups but 15 dips? I can do 8 pull ups but only 7 dips with decent from. I don‘t think I have lacking pushing strength. I can hardly do 3×15 push ups with clean form, same at inverted rows.
Don't worry about it. I can do 3x15 pushups as well, but barely 3x10 dips with good form. Even fewer inverted rows. Just keep doing what you're doing, and make sure to try for more each time. Dips are definitely harder than implied here, and I've been working out for almost a year now.
In my case: Couldn't do it: - 3 x 10 pullups (After 4-5 reps I can't touch the bar with my chest. Chin above bar doesn't count) - 3 x 15 inverted rows (Form failure after ~10 reps if it's just 2min rest between sets) Challenging but somehow I managed: - 3 x 15 dips - 30 seconds ring support hold (turning out the rings is the hardest part) - 3 x 10 leg raises (I barely did the last set) Easy: - Everything else Overall, not great but not terrible either. I will try to improve more.
you had me until 3 sets of 10 pullups. WTF? When I was 15, I could do 18 pullups, but not 3 sets of 10. Even with a 20 minute rest between, I'd see diminished returns 15, 8, 5 or such. I knew pullups was going to be in there, but I was expecting like 5 for a normal man. Most people I know can't even do 3. I'm at around 10 for a max these days.
Tbh the V-Situp is a bit out of place since even 99% of the physically in good shape population will also fail that (the proper form) purely on lack of hamstrings flexibility.
@@sierra8077 Average flexibility, yes. But that exercise requires well above average flexibility of a specific muscle that is already shortened for most people since our modern lifestyle.
Great tutorial and information! The sad thing is 80% or more emergency responders can’t meet your level 2 standards. We have become an apathetic society that only cares about money. And perhaps this is because EVERYTHING is too expensive.
Mathematically, if 9 out of 10 people can’t do something, it would not be considered a “standard”; it would be a deviation from the standard, actually…

Great video. I think you're right on, these are basics everyone should be working towards. I have some of them but not all.

I started doing straight bar pull ups again.They are difficult. I'm gonna keep going. Thanks for the leadership.
I completely agree, it's sad so few people have decent physical strength. I also think everyone should have flexibility of a comparable standard.

Welcome!
I’m pretty much there perhaps hanging raises and dips a bit lower in reps. If I lost body fat I’d been well above everything as I’m 100kg with a bmi of 30.
I'll have to spring for some rings and parallel bars. Don't have those at home, don't like going to a gym.
It's worth it. I have the b-bars from baseblocks, and they are phenomenal. I also picked up some rings, but had difficulty finding a place to hang them. If the same is true for you, look into duonamic's rings + doorframe attachment. You can hang them in a doorway without causing damage to the frame, and it lets you work out indoors. The doorframe attachment comes with handles by default that are perfect for dead hangs, and it takes maybe 2 minutes to swap them out for the rings.

I love being able to deadlift, squat, or do an overhead press without having to worry about hurting myself like with traditional weights.
My dude described the warmup for the warmup. Jokes aside, this basic body movements are indication of a healthy body.
It's so crazy to me that I can do all of these, except the dang pull up, of which I'm still at 3 sets 1 😑
Three sets of one! Love it! Me too!
If 99% of people can't do something it's by definition not basic.
The 3rd 1 is probably the easiest lot for me
"They don't give anything and expect get everything" is how I realise too late for this kind of topic.
Bad food, bad fitness education, and no continuous guidance for youngsters are the keys of how bad our health is (especially in this century). Functional movement is less appreciated nowadays 😅
If 99% of people CANT do them, then it’s not a “standard” that I should be able to do
I can do all the strength standards except for the rear push up hold I barely get 45 seconds. What exercise can I do to improve that?
I think I can do the majority of these. Though I will say despite being able to easily rep out like 30 push ups in a row. I suck at chest dips. I usually get to 10 and am approaching failure. Granted most of the time dips are usually further into my work outs when I've already benched, done tricep work, and shoulder work.

They became harder when I made sure to lower myself all the way, before starting to go up again, when before I would probably go to about 80% of the way down before going up. That being said I'm not a gymnast, just a body builder who dabbles in strength training. I didn't even know Cossack squats were considered a legit exercise. I thought they were just a warm up exercise for mobility, and for actual barbell squats. Kind of the same for just the standard body weight squat. I could do 50+ for 5-6 sets, which I have done before just for some extra burning after an actual leg day.
What is the length of pause between reps?
10 minutes
How much rest between sets?
The answer to this please
I'm 50 and I can do all of these!
No one without proper training can do 30 seconds ring support.
It is stated to do three sets of these various exercises. How long of a rest should be allotted between each set?

- 3 x 10 pullups (After 4-5 reps I can't touch the bar with my chest. Chin above bar doesn't count)
- 3 x 15 inverted rows (Form failure after ~10 reps if it's just 2min rest between sets)
Challenging but somehow I managed:
- 3 x 15 dips
- 30 seconds ring support hold (turning out the rings is the hardest part)
- 3 x 10 leg raises (I barely did the last set)
Easy:
- Everything else
Overall, not great but not terrible either. I will try to improve more.
hey my man, i only train at home, i want to start doing burpees as cardio, can i do everyday? and that Will be a problem to my chest day?
From zero and everyday will be a problem :) I mean you’ll feel it and might burn out. Do it gradually!
@@GymnasticsMethod ty
you had me until 3 sets of 10 pullups. WTF?
When I was 15, I could do 18 pullups, but not 3 sets of 10. Even with a 20 minute rest between, I'd see diminished returns 15, 8, 5 or such.
I knew pullups was going to be in there, but I was expecting like 5 for a normal man. Most people I know can't even do 3. I'm at around 10 for a max these days.
Hellyeah, brother.
Could each level be used as a workout 3 times per week? Progress to next level only once level completed?
Absolutely
How much rest do you give yourself between sets when you're testing yourself?
Tbh the V-Situp is a bit out of place since even 99% of the physically in good shape population will also fail that (the proper form) purely on lack of hamstrings flexibility.
Flexibility is part of being in good shape
@@sierra8077 Average flexibility, yes. But that exercise requires well above average flexibility of a specific muscle that is already shortened for most people since our modern lifestyle.
Plank is not an app exercise If you don't do a bunch of ab work before it. Your lower back will fail first.

Great tutorial and information! The sad thing is 80% or more emergency responders can’t meet your level 2 standards. We have become an apathetic society that only cares about money. And perhaps this is because EVERYTHING is too expensive.
This guy looks like young Jean-Claude
is there a discord channel i can be part of ?
timestamps would be great
It should generate it
With this skinny legs you can of course do a lot of bodyweight stuff
Should a person be able to perform all of this in one training session? I’m not at that level.
Hello
Mathematically, if 9 out of 10 people can’t do something, it would not be considered a “standard”; it would be a deviation from the standard, actually…
My math says you don't meet these standards.
@@somnathde1 I do. And I can do math. And I can read. …But your comment totally tracks with this crowd 😂
Stop Karen
He said 9 out of 10 can't but should be able to do (if they were healthy), nowdays fat or over weight is the "norm" but it shouldn't be
Lower abs workout
Ummm...where are people supposed to test some of those? I have never seen a gym that has rings.
