thank you Daniel, downloaded your BBW and LL routines a few years ago (when I turned 72 years old), Now almost 75 y/o am doing weighted pullups and rows - 30 KG, Dips with - 40kg. Thanks again and Keep up the great work.
@@startingtoday4663 Dude what the heck, you're 75 and you can do that type of stuff!!! I'm 13 and I can only do bodyweight dips. You should post videos I think you would get a lot of views.
Dan, you inspired me to do peruse this discipline and ultimately led me to doing this as a job. Cannot thank you enough for all your work over the years 🙏
Love your 10:51 answer! It is specifically that answer and ethos that probably keeps me coming back to your content after all these years. I have never commented before but wanted to this time. Thank you Daniel
Thanks Daniel! I'm a 67 year old athlete active all my adult life but a novice Calisthenics participant. Found your channel a few months back and find the content very helpful. You know your subject matter and communicate well. You are thoughtful and open minded and generous especially with your long form content. The context it offers is unique in this area. I'm grateful for your digital education, introductions, and companionship. Congrats on your development! May your significant milestone be one of many to come!😅
Always been athletic, current jobs a firefighter, first started going to the gym at 29, switched to calisthenics at 30, already doing hspu, planches into handstands. You still have plenty of time!
As an old client of yours during you PT days, thanks for this video. Your success is well deserved and you bring alot of value and knowledge to the fitness youtube community!
Love the PRs question. Like ok no performance PRs but obviously not noticed how jacked Daniel is looking at the moment. The hybrid thing is obviously working very well
Congrats Dan, you are not only prolific in your content creation but the quality of the content only gets better and better! You're the biggest inspiration on TH-cam to me!
Congratulations on 1.5M Subscribers!! I love your channel, thanks for all the help and information you have given out! I recently watched a lot of Tom Cruise movies and you look so much like him.
Thanks Dan, since 2018 you brought me out from being completely sedentary, I have been following you and you've been key to motivating me and giving me exercise ideas. I hope to continue seeing your content to the same top quality it has always been.
1.5m well deserved. I've been following your channel for nearly a decade and you've had a huge influence on my training. I even plucked up the courage to start a TH-cam channel of my own. Thanks for all your help over the years, here's to 2 million! 🎉
Guns are looking s w o l e Kudos for making this QnA lengthy. Congrats on all your success, you've been a great inspiration and your videos a great help
The google subtitles just killed me "You think about what gets you up in the morning, what adds meaning to your life, what is your purpose. And for me that's to educate and empower people to master color snacks" @ 2m30s. Sry didn't mean to subtract from you're awesome message. This just cracked me up and I wanted to feed the algo regardless.
This are the books Daniels described. I already finished reading Man's search for meaning and it is outstanding. * Meditation by Marcus Aurelius. * Man's search for Meaning by Viktor E Frankl. * The body Keeps the Score by Bessel Van Der Kolk.
Second question, let’s go. Good answer, educate and empower, that’s evident in your work. It’s crazy to think about someone pulling up the Fitness FAQs page in 2100, maybe my grandson, and the depth and breadth of still applicable resources he will find is incredible to think about. Thanks Daniel!
Thank you Daniel for the advice! I am training for the front lever and I am stucked with the one leg fl for so long that I feel doubtful about myself, but now I get the point, everyone is different
super informative and interesting Q+A with a lot of non cookie cutter takes(never heard any other personalities say this about creatine and I feel the same way). congrats on 1.5M.
The seriousness and urge to be practical is that I get from your channel .. much respect and love to u ..and thanks a ton for making such informative content ❤
Daniel this video is gold!! Would love to see a video on how to save time and step away from minor details!! Would you perhaps one day go back to make changes to your older programs (Body by Rings, for example).
By far this is one of the best and informative videos I've seen even though it's a Q&A! Love what you do Daniel, I've been a fan since 2016 and if it weren't up to you I wouldn't know hapf of the stuff i know when it comes to calisthenics. Keep it up and 2M is around the corner. 🙏
Another milestone achieved 🎉🎉🎉 Please get brawny king fitness on your podcast. He has written the best calisthenics book out there. He's a hidden gem in the calisthenics community.
Great video and great books you mentioned. Man's Search for Meaning is truly Inspirational. Meditations, EVERYONE, could do with being more Stoic! I will now check out the body keeps the score !
I'm currently working through Calimove's workout (sorry I had to pick one!). But I've been following you and one other along the way too and you've been super super helpful. I'm in currently in limp -mode after my shoulder 'slipped' and made a muffled ripping sound on 3 separate occasions doing skin the cat, and the final slip happened doing a tuck planche. So I've had to stop most upper body work to be super cautious. I'm assuming I have damaged by rotator cuff so I'm working through the cuff strengthening workouts you've highlighted. It's really put my training back. And I will scared to try the skin the cats/planche again but i'll be going back in very gentle when I restart. Good luck to all and thanks for the masses of help, Daniel.
3:52 what you should do is take it in a cycle for 1 mounth get the benefits of increased mussle mass and strenght and then stop lose the weight you gained feel great cause you feel light and pr
Love this! Well done on the milestone! Question : do you do any sort of cardio routine? 😊 would you be able to make any videos discussing cardio and sports (e.g football, tennis, swimming etc)
Do you still stand by your stance on creatine for gymnasts/highly proficient calisthenics practitioners? Anecdotally, academically, peer reviewed you name it, we now have a substantial corpus of data supporting the fact that Creatine supplementation will always result in an ergogenic benefit for the athlete. More repetitions, faster more aggressive repetitions at that and also the increase in recovery cannot be overlooked... I am very surprised with your outlook on this! You're the man in any case brother, thank you for everything!
Daniel, Thank you so much for your videos. I’m sure you are helping us to be more motivated to stay healthy and in good shape. I have one question, in the part of your training schedule, what do you mean by split?
Hey! I'm not Daniel, but splits are different types of routine structures. There are full-body routines, splits and body part splits. A typical split routine divides a workout to focus on a single group of muscles on different days. For example: biceps/back on one day, chest/triceps on second day and legs on third. That's called a push pull legs split, because on first day you do exercises where you pull, on second day exercises where you push and etc. I hope this answers your question:D
Nice video, you are one of the rare good ones, keep going. But if you ever think about going into mental coaching I will drop you so fast you cant even imagine ;) Just a hint because thats where a lot of fitnessYT-guys end up.
I have to say I disagree with you about creatine for calisthenics, because creatine is shown to boost performance in all strength and explosiveness sports including relative strength like in sprinting for example. In sprinting it's all about relative strength and sprinters need to be very lean, yet creatine is one of the most used supplements by professional sprinters.
Great insights 👍 The only points in which I slightly disagree are your imo somewhat too bleak outlook for older men and the effort you have to put into maintaining your physique and strength, especially at a higher age. I'm 52 now and I've been training for over 35 years, hometraining as a minor not even counting. My parents got me my first gym membership for my 18th birthday in 1988, which, if I remember correctly, was about three years before you were born. (And I don't actually mean to sound quite so condescending😁). Now my self- perception may be distorted of course, but I do feel amazing and I'm very pleased with my strength, with how I look, but also with how little I have to do, in order to keep it that way (yet). Most likely, my body has been used to carrying this amount of muscle for so long (naturally, mind you. I've never taken PEDs or been on TRT), that it doesn't see any need to get rid of any of it any time soon, especially since all of my joints are also find. I believe the older you get, the greater the role your nutrition plays gets. Everyone has to find out his or her own specific nutritional needs. Adhering to some off-the-rack one-size-fits-all nutritional regime (I would never call it diet, because of all the stupid implications that word is loaded with) may serve a younger person, but not me anymore. So I agree: Intuitive eating is best. And this should also mean constantly looking out for food sources you haven't tried yet. I like to watch channels that quote newer nutritional studies. That way I came across cod liver, for example, which I believe has served me really well since then. Anyway, maybe I've just great genetics - not for being immensely huge or incredibly shredded, obviously, but for staying the way I am at a higher age. Or maybe I'm about to meet a sharp decline at age 60 (I don't think so, but who knows for sure) And of course my body, too, will turn to dust in a couple of decades (or sooner, if I'm unlucky). So I'll stop rambling now and just thank you for your great work. Please keep it up 👍
I really want to excel at weighted dips and pullups. My favourite exercises. I'm at around 80kg in dips ATM. But pullups is hard to program. Trying to get my reps up so that I can start to train them weighted. Really feel confused about programming pullups, chinups and other neutral grip pulls.
@glowanocs thanks for the response, that's pretty much what I was thinking. I'm back up to 7 now, full ROM from dead hang. I was doing sets of 10-12 then started powerlifting, then marathon training. The numbers are coming back fairly quickly though :)
I got in recommended videos FitnessFAQs from 9 year ago. And you looked back then almost the same physically. I believe you do more various exercises, have better balance etc. But 9 years is enough to get to the Mr. Olympia. Are you on purpose not trying to get stronger and more muscular?

Why does left side of my body have more fat than my right side?
Nice video,
Do you have any tips for nerve elbow pain caused by training? Ther's nothing visible with the ultrasound so it's probably not a golf elbow.
You mention 30 reps before moving onto weighted dips and rows.
What about weighted pullups? Thanks :)
@glowanocs thanks for the response, that's pretty much what I was thinking. I'm back up to 7 now, full ROM from dead hang.
I was doing sets of 10-12 then started powerlifting, then marathon training.

Minimize the gap between feeling salty and taking action..... Is where I live.......
Nice
The man who does not read has no advantage over the man who cannot read. (regarding your hobby @24:52)
Wow
Guys is 25kg weighted pull up 1rep max(with neutral grip) good for a 15 year old(I weigh 73kg) ?
I'm 6'1 with longer torso relative to legs. Does that mean longer torsos and shorter legs is better for pushing compared with pulling?
what does it mean to be a scruncher when you wipe?
What is falia?
nice bro
I like the part if you can get 30 then move on to next strength gains
Your answer to the toilet paper roll what’s my favorite?😂

How can I keep bulk and shredded in the same time?
He pretty much explained this in this video lmao
