Love your videos, Anthony. Your minimalistic style and calm demeanor appeals to me. I watch you every day for motivation. I am practicing on rings every day because of you. It's a slow process but I am getting better each day. Thank you so much.
Hi SSTLM! Very happy to hear that. Enjoy the journey, focus on getting a tiny better each day and before you know it you'll be rocking them rings ;). Thank you deeply for your message and keep on training brother (or sister?)!
Although a good beginner exercise, it is also an exercise that you can quickly get used to! And since progressive overload is key for getting stronger, if you can hold a double-legged wall-sit for a minute... it is time to move on to a more badass advanced variation!
Although not a very popular exercise, the Single Legged Wall-sit is the best isometric lower-body calisthenics exercise you can incorporate to your training arsenal. Check my new video to learn more about it, how to do it, and how to make it even more difficult with Mind to Muscle Cues!
Doesn't this position create too much stress on the knee joint? I have chronic pain in both knees and I can only do partial high reps bodyweight squats. Congratulations for your work and your lifestyle.
This is great! I'm also a long time BKA with a similar stump shape to yours. Any other gems to help with muscle imbalances? I stay fit but my right leg always balloons way past my left in the quads/hamstrings when I'm using my big compound lifts to drive growth. Looking for some other supplemental stuff to help with the left side imbalance.
Amazing content bro. I’m new to your channel, please forgive me but I need to clear my doubts; are your gains from doing bodyweight exercises only? Or do you mix bodyweight exercises with weight lifting? Thank you!
Hi there! Glad you like the content on the channel! Just saw your comment and yes all my gains are from bodyweight training and the occasional supplementary stuff such as slam-ball tosses and battle rope workouts (although these are less than 3% of my yearly training).
@@BodyweightMuscle thank you so much! Unfortunately, I regret stopping doing bodyweight exercises cos I listened to those who say BW exercises have limited gains and they’re for building endurance only. Time to get back on track!
@@BodyweightMuscle hey man, I just want to say. I found your channel a few months ago and I’m a big fan. I love BW and rings training, and after I saw that you had a prosthetic leg, I became an ever bigger fan. People make excuses all the time, and you legitimately have a physical impairment. However, you don’t let that hold you back. You’re an inspiration man! Keep up sir!
wow, I've been using a deep lunge as an isometric that I'll hold for periods of a minute, got 25 seconds with my weak leg for this one 😂 really humbling
I totally have to try this isometric exercise for the legs. Go calisthenics. 💪🏾

We’re all familiar with the classic wall-sit...

So what is a good time for this? I can do 60 seconds right (dominate) and barely 50 left. 62 years old. Decent?
Quality video as always!
Thanks CB!
Your videos are very helpful. Thank you for sharing. I had a left side bka last July. I'm having a hard time building back muscle in my legs.
Hi Will! Feel free to reach out for help anytime!
As always , great video 💪
Hey Adam, thanks brother 💪🏻
Great man 👍😇
Amazing!!! Thx Tony!
Your very welcome my friend!

Hi Nico! Well, it depends or what is the root cause of your knee pain, give it a try and if you have pain I'll give you adaptations or alternatives

Hi Nathaniel, I'll be uploading something new pretty soon. Feel free to message me on instagram for quick tips

would you say this will help me achieve pistol and shrimp squat?
Sure, it would help as a supplementary exercise

They're tough, especially if you push against the surface you are leaning on
Can you do this as an above knee amputee?
Hi James, I think this wouldn't be the most ideal exercise in that case. I'd rather have you work with mini bands and isometric exercises
