Your voice is soo soothing man, you should make an audio book about calisthenics 😂

[SnowyBlizzard]

The same thing when training calves, y’all may not realize how much your tendons help lift weight when you don’t pause

0:00 Using bands like that is good if you want a free vasectomy

[limxin]

Please do a video that teaches how to use bands to improve on bodyweight movements!
Also, how to set them up properly. I once did a band assisted pull-up and that thing almost slapped my face…

[christophermatthews]

Bands are also great for recovering from a an injury.

I use bands in certain pull-up variations, always slow and controlled. I try to get the most out of my own muscle as possible.

[bobsimpson]

Are there bands you recommend? I bought a pack of bands and even the thickest one isn't big enough to get me to do a pull-up.

I'm 240 lbs and 6'6''. I'm strong enough to do so many other exercises. I can do 50 push-ups fast and 10 extremely slow ones with ease. My back is just very weak at the moment I guess.

I can't do a damn pull up lol. Which bands do you recommend for someone my size and weight?

[pablo_mates]

Which bands do you guys recommend for calisthenics? I have some simple short bands but they're breaking pretty easily.

[delsings]

Speed = more damage. And it was anxiety inducing seeing the incorrect examples here, tysm for doing this!

[mineshnissanka]

Could you make a video on ankle mobility of possible? My right ankle has more mobility thany left ankle, and that's preventing me from progressing to pistol squats :(

[riddlescom]

I've been doing band muscle ups for a year.
I can easily do them. 10 or 20 reps. Band around 1 foot . But take my band away I hang on bar for dear life . I cant transition. Getting my chest above bar with no assistance mus up is not happening.. if I weighed 10 lbs less maybe . But I can't do it yet.

[TaroLoaf]

dr mike from Renaissance Periodization made case not to use resistance bands for pull ups because he says it doesnt fully stretch the muscle. whats your take on this

[tomy]

Isn't it more effective to just do negatives until you can do the whole movement?

[shubhan_cali]

I use bands for muscle ups and 1 arm pull-up is it fine then?

[Pippett]

Do you have some recommended bands for this? I really want to get better at pullups, and I bought some bands and they were not right at all

[raphaeljs]

Could u make a vedio how to train the arm tendons🥲?

[mbogucki]

Yes, how does someone fall "in love" with the process? I have been working out for 10 years on and off and have yet to fall in love with any of processes. LOL

[jcbottles]

and NEVER use the machines. They try and use the wrong muscles. When you know what a pull-up feels like, you could tell.

[lioraja]

yeah pull ups is the king exercise for ego fakers ... I cannot see 1 dude at my gym doing at least 1 correct rep.... but yeah 10 1/4 reps hahaha

[jtkuhne]

True men ego lift, and machine gun rep with bands
