Hey bro, I have a question. How do u make your body flexible and strong? Do u like train flexibility separate first for a period time? Or Do u strength training and then have post stretches work outs?
Sorry to be so off topic but does anyone know a tool to get back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly lost my login password. I would love any tips you can offer me!
@Colten Ronald I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm in the hacking process now. Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Hey Tom, could you create a follow along routine for snapping scapula at some point? Would be awesome. Your videos are super helpful, especially for students like me who have a pretty messed up posture due to sitting and typing all day. Thanks to you, it has become pretty easy for me to have an idea how to improve my posture in the right way. Keep it up
Great advice, was looking for some good scalpula strenghtening advice and it's not easy to find as much a traditional bodybuilding and powelifting stuff. Glad i found this!
Happy Easter to you also Tom. He Is Risen! 96K I missed the 100K by March bet. You will get there. Loved the video as always. Love how you break it down for us simple folk.
Do these exercises help me strenghten my shoulder? i have an issue.... My shoulder is held by front side muscles more than muscles on my back, which means my shoulder is not stable (enough) for example to perform handstand.... (Please hit like so Tom can see my post and help me solve this problem, thank you very much kind people) :)
You will want to always focus on retraction of scapula as they are antagonist muscles to the chest and sup-scapular which bring your scapular and shoulder forward. Use a bridge to strengthen it.
I haven't been watching your videos very long by now but you have the greatest tips in the world for everybody who wants to learn more about his/her body
Agreed, it has grown lately. However, he didn't know who AlphaDestiny was when I asked him, so he might not, as Alex is a leading neck training promoter.
Piotrek Lesiński Not enough to make a difference. Direct neck training is necessary to grow a huge neck. Tom just has great genetics for his neck and that's all. Almost all calisthenics athletes have pencil necks. It's really rare to find someone with a developed neck. And the ones that do are mostly because of genetics cause they don't train them directly
I have had upper back and neck pain for so long. You go to chiropracters and they say "ahh you're sitting wrong let me pop you back in" then you go away and the problem returns. You go to a masseuse and they work the knots out of the muscles and you feel better for a while, only to have the problem return. The real solution is strength training! Strength training doesnt mean lifting heavy weights in isolation, it means finding the movements you're not doing but should be. You're probably weak as hell in the area you need to train and it probably feels weird or wrong when you train it. I've just started doing the beginner stage of scapula pull ups and it's helping already. If you fill the areas of your back that need support with supportive muscle then you'll fix the problem. Just remember it can be tiny muscles you need to fix and you dont need massive weights
I have a cronic shoulder/scapula pain that comes out when I bench press heavy My mobility and my form are good, so I will try these to see if my problem is scapula weakness. I think I may be on the right track this time, but I'm getting hopeless
Recently I attempted to do windshield wipers on a bar. I managed to do around 8 of them. Everything was fine until next days morning. I fucked up that muscle you talk bout in this clip. Exactly left side of it. I still feel it even after almost two weeks for now.
How do I train my scapula separately?, I'm having a hard time doing it coz my left arm looks small than my right arm, probably because I played tabletennis and I worked hard for my right arm
How are you supposed to keep your scapulas on the L-sit? Depressed and...retracted? My scaps always pop out and get slightly protracted. Same with push-ups, they always wing out from the bottom. What's the deal? I feel like I have shit scapula control. Scapular pull-ups are pretty easy though.
In the plance-lean-to-pressup, do you elevate the shoulders (shrug) at the end of the movement , while keeping the depressed before? Thanks in advance!
Hello Tom ! I block for several weeks (2 month ) with archer pull up I can not exceed 10 repetitions per side and it frustrates me a lot, can you give me a solution to break this plateau? thanks Tom.

Came for the scapular winging fix, stayed for your perfect back
DID U FIX IT
Yo same
Is scapular winging a problem?
Great advice, was looking for some good scalpula strenghtening advice and it's not easy to find as much a traditional bodybuilding and powelifting stuff. Glad i found this!
Pull ups are the best thing out there . Helps posture, builds really good back muscles and helps scapula winging
Happy Easter to you also Tom. He Is Risen!
96K I missed the 100K by March bet. You will get there. Loved the video as always. Love how you break it down for us simple folk.
Guessed two out of three, forgot about the L-sit. I find scapular pull-ups to be super effective when it comes to keeping my shoulders healthy.
Great video!
This man goes right to the good stuff thank you brother
NICE video,good information.i hope to use it.❤️
Pretty good I got a great stretch out of these and I can't wait to see how fast this build extra strength, bc I'm on a mission for the full planche
Good stuff
This video alone sold it for me. Awesome.
I subscribed.
My scap weakness has held me back for far to long.
As always: Shoulder ROM and Stabilization routine or Scapula Mobilization Routine:) very useful to warm up the shoulders and scapullas

This is very true. I started training scapula retraction and my overhead strict press starting skyrocketing
Definitely what I need to work on. Goal is Front Lever.
Best video for me for scapula
Very useful! Many thanks, Tom! Happy Easter!
Fantastic video. Thanks!
Man, your 2 latest videos are just the BOMB! All of them are great but I enjoyed those last even more :D
Great movements for overall kinesthetic awareness and basic for more advanced calisthenics moves!
Great thanks. I'll try all of these...IN MY DREAMS.
Thank you so much sir
Very important
Excellent stuff Tom. But while we are in this ridiculous lockdown, have any tips to do this at home?
Many thanks
Bump
Pretty mich the only video I could find on that topic. Thanks mate.
Bro thanks for the vids, they’ve helped so much
effective exercises man
Awesome exercises and well explained!!! Thanks!
Great tips.
Hey Tom. Always wondered if you train your neck. Kinda looks like you do which is pretty awesome. Changes the physique completely
Agreed, it has grown lately. However, he didn't know who AlphaDestiny was when I asked him, so he might not, as Alex is a leading neck training promoter.
Figel the Great Yeah
Handstands is my neck training haha. Burn the upper traps up like mad, especially one arms :)
Elements like l-sit, planche, front lever and also many basic core exercises train your neck if done properly

GREAT INFORMATION AND VIDEO. THANKS.
MOTIVATION GENERATION BOOM
Happy Easter to You.
Thanks Tom! Very helpful
excellent mix of exercises!
Holy moly Tom, your back on thumbnail look *godlike*
Edit: Happy Easter!
Great Information!!! I will Incorporate these movements into my workout routine!!!!!!
Tx man,,,, now i get the idea how handstand sequential mechanic work
Thanks a lot buddy
Great work
Thanka you tom thank you!!!
Perfect love from USA 🇺🇸
Seriously thinking about adding the planche lean to pike HS in my routine because I lack protraction strength.
How do you activate the scapula in the movements that's Freakin Unbelievable nice video❤

Looks like you are at FitnessFirst Gym!!
Loving the new HQ A reel
Loving the content sir🙏🏾
I guess IWYT raises are quite good in scapula strength 😅
Good advices mate! 👍🏽
Well presented!! Got ya a new subscriber 😁
Working on it, hope to have a one leg planche soon at least!
I have a cronic shoulder/scapula pain that comes out when I bench press heavy
My mobility and my form are good, so I will try these to see if my problem is scapula weakness. I think I may be on the right track this time, but I'm getting hopeless
Me too
please make a lower back problem video
Great video man. Thanks! Pro video tip: for talking head shot you want the top of frame just touching the top of your head/hair. 🙏
blair millar thought something felt off with it. Noted!
Hi Tom, great content! Could you please inform me whether these exercises help fixing winged scapula? Thanks!
I asloo for right answer
Vinicius Miranda I think it’s too late for me to answer but yea the scapula push-up helps
Can’t wait to see my gains after two weeks of implementing these moves 😎😎😎
Thanks bro🔥👌
These did actually strengthen my “scapuler”
You're saying that they really solved the problem?
Thnx bro
I'll be back after 30 day
Those exercises are to difficult for me, searchin for basic stabilizing exercises not rly strengthening ones but still nice ! :)
Recently I attempted to do windshield wipers on a bar. I managed to do around 8 of them. Everything was fine until next days morning. I fucked up that muscle you talk bout in this clip. Exactly left side of it. I still feel it even after almost two weeks for now.
I am still an absolute beginner can't get my L sit yet will try the pike and scapula push ups
Hey bro seeing this 2 years late..... But great video... And i do know some scapular strength exercises if u wanna know
Happy Easter! Also, great timing on the scapula tips
Need this to cure my snapping scapula syndrome
interesting Vince Gironda actually preferred the scapular pullups over chinups and pullups
When working the scapula , especially with the last excercise, would you say you're working the serratus also?
100k around the block ^^
PS - Happy Easter :)
This is good, as I am trying to recover from a chronic shoulder impengment which is a result of a weak scapula , will these programs help my recovery?
Wow my hamstrings are super super tight, I cant even halfway do the planche thing without bending my knees
What about scapula shrugs? These can be done in l-sit, and front lever. I love these.
Yoni Baron sure a good alternative for the L-sit :)
Got some rings today, and Toms hand stand, they are hard to balance
Any tips for hypermobile shoulders?
So many likes but not enough answers😅
Active hang
Thanks for another great upload
For retraction I like doing Bulgarian L-Pull ups and L-sit, both with maximally retracted shoulders. Feels really good, Have you tried those Tom?
Thanks bro
Thank you!!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Hey Tom,thinking about picking up a tee. What kind of tees are they printed on though? Didnt see that info on the site.
Hey your videos have help me alot can you make video on how to have a strong neck
Dods Don elliot hulse has really good videos on neck strengthening, search it up :)
Dods Don Look up AlphaDestiny's channel.
What Marin and Nikola said^
How do I train my scapula separately?, I'm having a hard time doing it coz my left arm looks small than my right arm, probably because I played tabletennis and I worked hard for my right arm
Big brother,how many days scapula winging will be correct?🙄🙄😟😟😟
Technically you are not exactly strengthening the scapula, which is a bone, right? What muscle or muscles do the exercises strengthen?
What do you think of "the convict conditioning"?
Any more for scaulars.?
Would these be good as a warm up. Especially the scapula pulls, shrugs and push ups before any pull and push day?
Sir doing rope climbing activities
Plz suggest good scapular strengthening exercises for it
ANISH JOSHI single arm scapula pull ups
Brett I try to do chest to bar pull-ups but I can’t get my chest to the bar should I keep training or am I doing it wrong
I understand this is an older video now but are these exercises good for fixing scapular winging ? Thank you
What about scapula dips
How can beginners or even someone in pain actual do these exercises??? This is for advanced ppl and someone not having any pain

HI Tom, is there any reasoning behind showing final l-sit on parallel bars not on rigs? Is ring-variation significantly harder?
1. Scapula pullup the horizontal position could blow the discs??
How about the overhead press ?
