I bought your mobilityand calisthenics program and I'm half way through phase 2 of the mobility program. This exercise and its variations is still to this day the hardest, but has produced the most benefits in ALL calisthenics exercises. I didn't realize how much energy overall is wasted from having weak compression. Thank you!
Literally all of the elements of this video are prefect. The shots, the editing, creativity and movements. You guys really are an impressive bunch of people.
haha. I watched the vid. Sat on the floor and couldn't budge my legs a millimetre. I had to grab my leg to lift it an inch. I'm so weak and inflexible 🤣
Hey El Eggs and Sven!! Just a quick comment to let you know my high school age sons and I are deep into your Complete Calisthenics course. We started that after completing your Home Workout. In the pandemic their physical education became almost non-existent, so I took it over and told them they were going to exercise with me. You should see them do pull-ups now. Enough to make a father cry with pride. When we started they couldn't even do one. Your programs are great. Thank you.
I love how this guy explains stuff clearly and slowly and what he says matches what he does unlike those videos that speak so fast and say something but show something else.
I've been following your channel for four years now and my body thanks me for it. My love for calisthenics began with this channel and this Saitama guy doing demonstrations. 🔥
This exercise took away 5 years of severe sciatic pain and forward head posture I've been struggling with. Literally the first time I tried it. This is life changing for me. Thank you is an understatement!
Congratulations man I remember what it's like to have that pain just be gone all of a sudden. I hope it stays off for you I'm trying to find a new way to get rid of it again. Hopefully this is it
Your instruction movies are GREAT. Always. They are smart, fun, pragmatic and make it easy to understand what to do. Love your contents. Have started working out "for real" and will switch to your programme as soon as my old fitness contract runs out :-)
I love the instruction! U teach in all levels! Thank you so much!! It gives us weight lifting people who never cal in extreme, to learn how to do this! What accomplishment when I can do some of this!! 😃🥰
I struggled with pistol squats for a long time. About a year ago I started doing this very exercise, after finding an older video of you demonstrating it. After consistently performing it for a little over a month, I attempted pistol squats again and was able to do 5 in one go. That was after not even being able to do 1. Turns out my leg strength was always there, I just lacked in this type of mobility. This is a legit exercise and fixed so many issues I had. Also noticed lower back pain I would sometimes get completely went away. Great stuff as always!
I am in week 12 of level 1 calisthenics by these guys. I have my doctorate in PT and I have to say.. these guys are incredible, detailed, and simple to understand. I am so excited to move though each week and see what I become all said and done! Level 5 here I come!!!
I have been trying to do a handstand and with this video I am almost there still need more practice but I think I will be able to do it now. Thank you. 😊
This works filks ! I did this exercise a lot (it is included in the mobility program) and it has helped me unlock the L-sit in the complete calisthenics program.
This exercise is the final part of my student’s warm up in every class! I highly recommend super setting with toe touches to help increase flexibility and learn to relax in a stretch
I have the most pathetic flexibility and spine mobility and I found this video by chance but I'm so thankful!!! Nobody understood me, I noticed I'm more rigid than most people by nature and when I asked for exercises to improve, nobody could help me. Thanks!!!
Oh my goodness 😳! Wow that was hard 😬. I love the way you put this video together. Tons of info and demos but short time ⏲! Thank you and you just got yourself a new subscriber 😁.
When I was training for L sit and L raises I found out hip flexors are the most important part to get neglected on. Once I started doing straight leg raises L sit and raises got so much easier. Definitely add this in your routine!
I suffer from chronic low back pain and this exercise is extra hard for me. But I’ll try my best. Doing calisthenics have helped me with shoulder pain tremendously but unfortunately haven’t helped my low back pain which affects my quality of life! Thank you so much for these videos you have no idea how they helped me and motivate me. You are the primary reason why I have abandoned the gym and switched to calisthenics.🙂
Thanks for this video. I struggle to get a strong contraction in the abs with many other movements but this one gives them no other choice than to squeeeeeze.

Pls explain what is weak compression
@@mabd7340 check 1:19
How many days a week do you do these exercises and do you do weight training too?
I'm 40 and did the same thing. I'm in Level 1 week1 in both programs. Can't wait to progress inchallah.
This Guy realy is impressive
Literally all of the elements of this video are prefect. The shots, the editing, creativity and movements. You guys really are an impressive bunch of people.
The acting too
Aka Germans.
Clear and concise.
That comment is literally something that Chris from Parks and Recreation would say xDDD
Thanks to Satiyama
The level of precision coupled with simplicity makes even a novice like me fully get committed to Calisthenics. Massive thumbs up for the great videos
Caliathenics is really great ,improves your body and is interesting
😅
"Well, that looks easy!" => *can't fucking do it.*
I thought so too that it was easy but it’s very hard!
haha. I watched the vid. Sat on the floor and couldn't budge my legs a millimetre. I had to grab my leg to lift it an inch. I'm so weak and inflexible 🤣
Lmao that got e because that's exactly what I told myself
@@etiennemonfort4385 It's fucked up, and I'm not even out of shape. :D
Right. Who does this jagoff think he is anyway?

This looks easy, but its actually hella tough when you havent done exercises like this before. Putting this into my workout sessions, for sure!

....if Saitama switched to blue shorts and kept beards
@@qudavid1128 Maybe because of the existence of multiverse, he wears blue shorts.

I am stunned, it helped with my stretching immediately.

Don’t worry and just show some appreciation. Donate to the Chanel or buy some merchandise.
Props 👌
I love how intense these tiny movements can be.
It’s really a mobility challenge

I ordered the mobility program today with your black Friday promo. Can’t wait to start fixing this anterior pelvic tilt!
Thank you Boss!
I now do this after seeing it for the first time in one of your previous videos. It's much harder than it looks! But such a great exercise.
Thank you for this lesson
holy shit, haven't seen your stuff for a while, and you are becoming a truly impressive video creator!
This works filks ! I did this exercise a lot (it is included in the mobility program) and it has helped me unlock the L-sit in the complete calisthenics program.

Oh my goodness 😳! Wow that was hard 😬. I love the way you put this video together. Tons of info and demos but short time ⏲! Thank you and you just got yourself a new subscriber 😁.
I've never seen or heard of that one.
Thank you for sharing it.
This is my favorite exercise guy, I save these workouts every time he posts them.
My dog does these too. He even manages to scoot around while doing it! What an amazing creature.
Love this video! I start today!
You guys are amazing. Great vid!
I feel like this is the missing move in my core rebuilding progression. Thank you for this great video!
When I was training for L sit and L raises I found out hip flexors are the most important part to get neglected on.
Once I started doing straight leg raises L sit and raises got so much easier.
Definitely add this in your routine!
I was really in need of this.
I'm not doing any exercises,
So you got me there!
Great video, good explanations, nice editing. thanks!
Great video...as usual, impressive strength and muscular coordination.....too good!
Great instructions love the demo's ❤

Hello! great content!
But how long do you need to be holding this position for? Or what sets and reps?
thank you
Great editing!
Very effective thanks for the upload 👌🏿
Delivered in the universal language of 'calisthenics'. Perfect.
Thanks for this video.
I struggle to get a strong contraction in the abs with many other movements but this one gives them no other choice than to squeeeeeze.
