Very informative video. You are a very hardworking man to that I say much respect. You deserve all your success. You are very blessed, there is another youtuber call Gregory Scott you both give good advice when it comes to working out. Thanks for sharing your story.
Holy shit I remember when you first started your channel haha. You were one of the few guys who would give tips to girls without being creepy or a jerk back then. You would even recommend other channels you were watching back then. Glad to have found you again, great transformation (I use to tease you about your legs lol) and Im happy to see the success youve gained and are continuing to receive from your focus consistency and dedication. Salut
Austin, thanks for this brother. I just started my calisthenics journey about 7 weeks ago and this video just gave me loads more motivation to keep up the consistency. Thanks and God bless you man.
Honestly I love how yuu continue to grow instead of just doing body weight workouts and progressed to things like squats and deadlifts, it always pains me when more calisthenics based athletes skip legs because neglecting certain parts of the body just doesn’t look right
Amazing. I'm 33 years old, married w/ 2 kids and only recently started focusing on my health. Your dedication helps inspire guys like me who have put personal growth on the back burner with the chaos that life brings. Keep making awesome videos to keep me on track and push me toward my goals.
I right there with you, just a couple of years older. I'm like "Okay, if I stay consistent I can look that jacked when I'm...40?! Smh. Better 40 than never.
Just by looking at the way you carry yourself, I can tell your a very honest person and inspirational After hearing dozens of other bodybuilders talking about the right ways to do things, your the only one that caught my ear and got me into all of this “improving yourself” things 😂 Just wanted to let you know that a lot of us appreciate you for what you inform us about and your motivation God bless
amazing transformation bro, I started calisthenics being overweight ( 5'6 175 lb), and now after a 1 1/2 year I am down to 136. I have followed a bunch of other RUclipsrs and have recently discovered your channel. I really like the stuff you do and will get on your program so I could get my beach body ready ;).
WetLikeWater I mean blacks have pretty good genetics but I don’t believe their the best, there has not been research on which race has superior genetics.
Man i sat down to those 25 mins. Worth every sec. Thank you for sharing your story. I find your story inspiring. Makes me wanna keep up with what im doing. Stay humble man. Thank you very much.
Motivational. I'm 6' and weight 175. 6 months ago I weighted 148. I first started by counting calories and slowly fixing the quality of food I ate. Now that I dont look so malnourished I started going to the gym. I have 2 months of going and I'm addicted. Cant wait till I start seeing big progress on muscle mass.
Mika On The Fly I’m 6’ and weigh 149. I’ve started lifting weights 2 months ago and I have gained only 5 pounds even with excessive eating/ trying to bulk. I’m starting to switch to more body weight trainin.
@@gerrittosborne633 have you tried counting calories? It's a lot of time to do but try it. I did it for 2 weeks to really understand how much food I needed to eat to gain weight.
Mika On The Fly yea me too I thought I was eating more than enough but I eat clean so most of my foods aren’t very calorically dense, I don’t stress about being perfect. Best of luck to you
Love seeing the transformation and growth as a whole. I see those subscriptions too. When you are real, authentic, and put in work you outgrow people you once looked up to. #KeepGrindinIn19
@@flickfragments23 Lmaooo it's about how some people think that their exercise movements belong to them and feel the need to essentially trademark them even though the movements have been around way longer than they have. All types of RUclipsrs have this copyright beef in some form.
I can definitely relate with that whole calisthenic only mindset. When I started working out I was strictly only calisthenics and 100% against anything else but fast forward 3 years later and I now also do weighted calisthenics along with some free weight exercises. Your mindset definitely changes as you mature more! Well said Austin 👌
Keep up the great work, Austin! I'm inspired by your backstory, progress and persistence. I too don't expect results overnight, but the results are already felt after 3 weeks so far! Calisthenics for the win!
My dude. I love this video. It just shows your progress so well. Not just your transition but with info provided as well. Great effort dude, keep going!!!
I just discovered your channel and I never really did any calisthenics but wanted you to know I really love your content, even without being into the calisthenics stuff. Great Stuff keep it up big boy!
Great "transformation" video!! The best way to share your journey! We have one video from our transformation but it's only the regular videos of our calisthenics skills gains. Doing this seems like a better way to people understand your journey and struggles! Good stuff Austin! 💪
I just completed my first year and 2 months of calisthenics I leaned: -Muscle ups 7 reps -Hand stand but still inconsistent -L-sit -Pistol squats -pseudo planche push-ups For the next year I hope to accomplish: - tuck planche -consistent handstand -front lever? Thanks you Austin for the great advice that you give and your motivation.👍🏾
Dan Don I didn’t mention the human flag in my comment, but I’m still working on it I think after a month or so I would be able to hold it for 4-5 Seconds
bob johnson they aren’t really that difficult it’s two parts that u need to consider one is the balance and the other is your leg strength after you get the balance down it becomes easily until your muscles fatigue
Great inspiration. Although my starting point is different from you (I started overweight and tried to get my weight down this year so that I can do more bodyweight/calisthenics exercises), you have inspired me with your determination, positivity and humility. Please continue to post all these great content. All the best on your journey in 2019!
Great progress. 145lbs - 170lbs in 4 years. That's 6.25 lbs per year, around 2.8 kgs per year of lean muscle mass. That is what being a natural looks and results in. Expect 2-3 kgs of lean muscle per year. Anything more than that is very unrealistic. Roid takers can get 10kgs in a 12 week cycle and when they come off keep around 6kgs. That would mean they can do in 3 months what took someone like Austin 2 years to do naturally! Stay informed kids! :)))))
@@CollineinfachCollinex That is extremely unlikely and you have not understood what sort of weight you've put on. I have no doubt you put on 11kgs in weight from the first day til the last day you weighed yourself. However most of it was 1. carb load/glycogen reserves/extra food in your muscles 2. water 3. 5-6 lbs of muscle 4. fat. If you were extremely skinny to begin with you can fill out your ribs for example with fat and still look lean. Also how old are you? You look young and if you are under 21 then some of the weight gain is just your bones growing and has nothing to do with bodybuilding. Lastly did you weigh your in the morning or at night because most people are up to 2kgs heavier at night than in the morning which would account for some of the supposed miscalculation. Also make sure you when you weigh yourself that you are wearing the same minimal clothing ie. just shorts and not full clothing eg. jeans with coins in them, which will add weight to the scales.
Lon A u can’t gain 2-3 kg per year: muscle doesn’t grow at the same rate per year. U will put way more muscle on the first year and each year it will decrease by half of what it was last year.
@@anishpatel4169 Anish you are 100% correct! It is likely that the first year will be the most (noobie gains) and each subsequent year there will be diminishing returns. I was just stating the median/average of Austins 4 year stated transformation. Of course one can't do 2-3 kgs for life as then one could end up being 300kgs of muscle by 70 years old. After a few years (7 + years) one would be lucky to even gain 1kg of muscle per year.
Started my journey New Years but yesterday was my best feeling workout...I just felt the fire in my belly. Managed to do: Cardio 40 Push Ups 40 Dips Practiced L Sits Practiced Handstand push ups Can barely turn my steering wheel today lol
God gave me super fucking legs, I can do like 10 pistol squats for each leg easly, but I struggle with push ups (15 straight 😩) and specially with pull ups
I really don't want to be that dude, but 10 pistol squats is not as impressive as you think. There are people doing heavy weighted pistol squats and explosive pistols. Keep working.
I used to practice yoga consistently but after a car accident (and A LOT of health issues) I have started deadlifting and doing a decent amount of core work. My diet really can't be very good (haha I have a stomach disorder and food is a challenge) but I'm excited to start some calestenics stuff just for fun...thanks for this!!!
I came to a recent video because I know you will see this comment😂 just wanted to say sup and thanks for the chest work out videos and because of you my chest is starting to get big so thanks👍🏽btw Im cool with your sister so its pretty cool to see her brother make it with so many subscribers but anyways keep the grind and dont give for anything💪🏾🤘🏽
Hi Austin, very nice video ! You definitely look better with your hair trimmed short like that, according to my viewpoint !! Congratulations for your being so consistent and patient...your efforts did pay off : you can be proud of yourself !!
My gosh, that vid was just amazing.. We´re happy to see your progression, but it´s also really motivating. Thanks Austin. Keep doing these great vids and I hope you will be even bigger next year! :)
Thanks for sharing Austin. Been sick for a week and getting back on your program. Really look forward to improving my health and life overall. God bless brother;)
Yo, I am 17 and we weighed the same at the same age. I have been working out for about 3 years now, and the fact you said that you are motivation, I will grind to look like you, or even buffer when I am older!
Love your videos bo, your real and genuine and I'm on my journey at the moment and loving calisthenics, keep doing what you doing because there is a lot of plastics out there, will follow your journey
Really, really interesting video. You got me motivated and a little sad also. This because I see how being inconsistent with the training is a no-no. I've been into calisthenics for a year and a half, however I've become consistent with it only this summer and watching this video makes me realize how far I could have gone if I did train right. Well, no time for regret. Now I'm training once a week, but I'm going do my best to workout at least 2 times a week. It'll be hard, since school really keeps me busy. Keep it up bro!
nice to see this vid austin. I remember watching your first calisthenics body transformation. (also your tech review video before you started calisthenics lol). It's great to see you come this far. You have inspired me to work out. Keep up the great work man!
I don't get to go to the gym at all, but it is good to know that if I focus, buckle down and eat right and do my calisthenics I can look half way decent in 6 months. Btw, I just subscribed about 2 days ago...I am definitely inspired by you. Keep up the great work.
15:24 that's true that a lot of top workout athletes skip leg day, but Andrea Larosa always proves me that skipping leg day isn't necessary. Also after 2 years of training calisthenics my upper body grew quite a bit and it became disproportional lower body and that's when I became training legs. Mostly pistol squats cuz there's not much of opportunity for leg training on the , also rope jumps on one leg are good for calves activation
Nah bro, hardwork > Genetics... I trained with strict nutrition and training and I got in crazy shape in a month. So just train hard and results will come
@scienz tbh I started as an obese kid but had the motivation to learn all the basic excercises, this is where I build some muscle and developed them. Not mentioning the year I did this for which had gotten my body used to working out hard. Then the month I became really strict mentally and did calisthenics then got to a really low body fat %, this is where all my results showed. Everyone's different, genetics or not, I definitely wouldn't have achieved this with out putting my mind to it
@@sami_rashid1996 If you got in a "crazy shape" in just one month, you without a single doubt got good genetics, my friend. If you actually believe that's attainable for everyone with only hard work, then you're honestly a bit naive mate, and probably a little ignorant as well. Also, genetics DO play a massive role. It's the determing factor how fast you gain muscle, and how big you can become. And about your last message: People who gain weight easily, typically gain muslces easily too. Just look at strongmen. The top strongmen are typically de facto clinically obese, but they're absurdly strong. A mix of *genetics* and hardwork.
My god if I weighed 175 lbs I would be dead, I might be able to get down to 210 some day but I doubt it. You have impressed me with calisthenics, I primarily do P90X because it works and I'm still a novice. But the type of body control you demonstrated in this video is really impressive and exactly the type of fitness that I'm already working towards. Good video man very informative and impressive keep it up.
21:30 couldn't agree more with you. You should never stick to a certain "style"(even if it fits you lol).Bodybuilders do not have overall control over their body as do the ones who do calisthenics.But also,if you only,and only do calisthenics,you might as well "lag" a bit with some of your muscles(shoulders and biceps most notably).
C Xxx Can't agree with you there. You can't really isolate your biceps when doing calisthenics.Yeah,chin-ups are good,but you don't really work your biceps only.Your back does the majority of the work...You still need to lift weights,so you can target both of your heads,along with the brachialis. You can't do that by doing chin-ups and/or pull-ups only.That's a fact...
Herbi D Doing calisthenics "for fun" and being a gymnast is not same.Not at all.They do various kinds of shit that no normal human can do.And since they use their hands most of the time(better say ALL the time),you can of course expect their biceps to be pretty massive.
Hey Austin, I was wondering if I have to be sore to be getting results? I have been doing good workouts and not over working as well but I never end up being sore. Am I doing something wrong? Will I still get results?
Being sore doesn't mean you're not making progress. I'm almost never sore, and I've reached many points of overtraining. Being sore happens only in the beginning for some people. Of course if you stop working out for a couple of weeks and go back to working out again, you'll experience the same soreness in the beginning, until it eventually disappears again.
I can't believe you're 2 years younger than me. I've been missing out on gains. Glad I'm getting real results now though. I've been doing calisthenics for around 1 year and a half. Better late than never. I mean, I probably still look better than average for someone my age, but I don't wanna look just "better than average". I wanna look remarkable. Calisthenics is the shit.
I really laughed when he said I really didn't train my calves.. cuz I just wasn't educated enough (pointing at his head) Keep it up bro.. I should train them too
You have inspired me to start calisthenics. I just wanna say thank you for these videos. Every time i watch your video i learn something new. Hands down best calisthenics channel in youtube. KEEP IT UP BRO💪👊
Yes I messed up the KG part 😂 I was just trying to help my international people!! Transformation Package: www.austindunham.com/transform

My diet really can't be very good (haha I have a stomach disorder and food is a challenge) but I'm excited to start some calestenics stuff just for fun...thanks for this!!!
I came to a recent video because I know you will see this comment😂 just wanted to say sup and thanks for the chest work out videos and because of you my chest is starting to get big so thanks👍🏽btw Im cool with your sister so its pretty cool to see her brother make it with so many subscribers but anyways keep the grind and dont give for anything💪🏾🤘🏽
Awesome bro. It’s good to see you progressing. There is hope for us as well.
I’m 13 and in 2019 I’m gonna go full into calisthenics and want to get in my best shape
Hi Austin, very nice video ! You definitely look better with your hair trimmed short like that, according to my viewpoint !! Congratulations for your being so consistent and patient...your efforts did pay off : you can be proud of yourself !!
you could have been a manga character man ... truly inspiring nuff respecs
My gosh, that vid was just amazing.. We´re happy to see your progression, but it´s also really motivating. Thanks Austin. Keep doing these great vids and I hope you will be even bigger next year! :)
Did you have any pains in your body , like back and shoulder throughout the couple months??
Keshawn X like sore or pain if it's pain that means your form is not good and your damaging your body
Thanks for sharing Austin. Been sick for a week and getting back on your program. Really look forward to improving my health and life overall. God bless brother;)
I'm stuck at a young age where I can't do or go anywhere. I feel like Harry potter and these videos are the owls bringing in the letters.
Yo, I am 17 and we weighed the same at the same age. I have been working out for about 3 years now, and the fact you said that you are motivation, I will grind to look like you, or even buffer when I am older!
8:46 daaamn a nice left jab
right? lol. subtle shot right there.
Seems like a very humble guy🙏🏽
Very inspiring my guy!
Love your videos bo, your real and genuine and I'm on my journey at the moment and loving calisthenics, keep doing what you doing because there is a lot of plastics out there, will follow your journey
1:57 those legs tho 😂😂😂
You can’t even see them
Where???🤔
Excuse me but where are they?
Really, really interesting video. You got me motivated and a little sad also. This because I see how being inconsistent with the training is a no-no. I've been into calisthenics for a year and a half, however I've become consistent with it only this summer and watching this video makes me realize how far I could have gone if I did train right. Well, no time for regret. Now I'm training once a week, but I'm going do my best to workout at least 2 times a week. It'll be hard, since school really keeps me busy. Keep it up bro!
Alway Great & Usefully information
Wow you have such great content! Surprised I only discovered you now. Keep up the amazing work! :)
Who agrees Austin should learn the maltease in 2019
Mzrrr no it's straight planche with the arms to the side
I have a huge amount of respect for body builders. It requires so much will, effort, and dedication
I have a long way to go... starting December 2nd
I'm starting on the 1st too
nice to see this vid austin. I remember watching your first calisthenics body transformation. (also your tech review video before you started calisthenics lol). It's great to see you come this far. You have inspired me to work out. Keep up the great work man!
Austin, great video as always but your pounds to kg calculations are wrong ;)
I don't get to go to the gym at all, but it is good to know that if I focus, buckle down and eat right and do my calisthenics I can look half way decent in 6 months. Btw, I just subscribed about 2 days ago...I am definitely inspired by you. Keep up the great work.
Started callisthenics 2 weeks ago wish me luck (;
1 year update???! Cmon now
This self evaluation was lit been here through this journey can’t wait to see your growth and also my own from watching your vids 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
You are my fav youtuber...i follow you from Argentina since two years ago...maybe you can put subtitles in spanish dude...
What if he doesn’t speak Spanish?
I’m 18 & 154LB right now, I’m about to start this journey man let’s goooo!!!
I’ll be back in couples months
How about now?
How are you now?
Austin basically went from “Awwwee thats cute” to Daddy in 3 years.
You're an awesome guy. Thanks for making yourself relatable to us. To me. Hope you progress further and continue to inspire us. Cheers!
Try nile wilsons new challenge, he said only a gymnast could do it....
15:24 that's true that a lot of top workout athletes skip leg day, but Andrea Larosa always proves me that skipping leg day isn't necessary. Also after 2 years of training calisthenics my upper body grew quite a bit and it became disproportional lower body and that's when I became training legs. Mostly pistol squats cuz there's not much of opportunity for leg training on the , also rope jumps on one leg are good for calves activation
U progress abnormaly fast even in the first few months.. Genetiks
Nah bro, hardwork > Genetics... I trained with strict nutrition and training and I got in crazy shape in a month. So just train hard and results will come
@@sami_rashid1996 did you ever think that maybe u have complimentary genetics too?
@scienz tbh I started as an obese kid but had the motivation to learn all the basic excercises, this is where I build some muscle and developed them. Not mentioning the year I did this for which had gotten my body used to working out hard. Then the month I became really strict mentally and did calisthenics then got to a really low body fat %, this is where all my results showed. Everyone's different, genetics or not, I definitely wouldn't have achieved this with out putting my mind to it
@@sami_rashid1996 If you got in a "crazy shape" in just one month, you without a single doubt got good genetics, my friend. If you actually believe that's attainable for everyone with only hard work, then you're honestly a bit naive mate, and probably a little ignorant as well. Also, genetics DO play a massive role. It's the determing factor how fast you gain muscle, and how big you can become.
And about your last message: People who gain weight easily, typically gain muslces easily too. Just look at strongmen. The top strongmen are typically de facto clinically obese, but they're absurdly strong. A mix of *genetics* and hardwork.
My god if I weighed 175 lbs I would be dead, I might be able to get down to 210 some day but I doubt it. You have impressed me with calisthenics, I primarily do P90X because it works and I'm still a novice. But the type of body control you demonstrated in this video is really impressive and exactly the type of fitness that I'm already working towards. Good video man very informative and impressive keep it up.
4:52 doing muscle ups on the door 😂
Hey thanks for every video that you made!!! I‘m from Austria and every video is a Motivation for me!!❤️
21:30 couldn't agree more with you. You should never stick to a certain "style"(even if it fits you lol).Bodybuilders do not have overall control over their body as do the ones who do calisthenics.But also,if you only,and only do calisthenics,you might as well "lag" a bit with some of your muscles(shoulders and biceps most notably).
Shoulders and biceps ? They’re like the most easily build able ones with callisthenics. Hard places to grow are more like legs and rear delts
C Xxx Can't agree with you there. You can't really isolate your biceps when doing calisthenics.Yeah,chin-ups are good,but you don't really work your biceps only.Your back does the majority of the work...You still need to lift weights,so you can target both of your heads,along with the brachialis. You can't do that by doing chin-ups and/or pull-ups only.That's a fact...
The muscles gymnasts are most known for are their biceps and shoulders man
Agreed
Herbi D Doing calisthenics "for fun" and being a gymnast is not same.Not at all.They do various kinds of shit that no normal human can do.And since they use their hands most of the time(better say ALL the time),you can of course expect their biceps to be pretty massive.
very proud of you austin. incredible. inspiring.
Hey Austin, I was wondering if I have to be sore to be getting results? I have been doing good workouts and not over working as well but I never end up being sore. Am I doing something wrong? Will I still get results?
I got same problem
You are blessed.
You should be sore. If the workout isn't challenging enough that's a problem.
Being sore doesn't mean you're not making progress.
I'm almost never sore, and I've reached many points of overtraining. Being sore happens only in the beginning for some people.
Of course if you stop working out for a couple of weeks and go back to working out again, you'll experience the same soreness in the beginning, until it eventually disappears again.
I can't believe you're 2 years younger than me. I've been missing out on gains. Glad I'm getting real results now though.
I've been doing calisthenics for around 1 year and a half.
Better late than never.
I mean, I probably still look better than average for someone my age, but I don't wanna look just "better than average". I wanna look remarkable.
Calisthenics is the shit.
I really laughed when he said
I really didn't train my calves.. cuz I just wasn't educated enough (pointing at his head)
Keep it up bro.. I should train them too
You have inspired me to start calisthenics. I just wanna say thank you for these videos. Every time i watch your video i learn something new. Hands down best calisthenics channel in youtube. KEEP IT UP BRO💪👊
3:52 "begginer base level movous"
Austin I’ve been watching ur vids and I just want to say thanks for Motivating and inspiring me man
