Summer’s program is awesome!! It’s been a long time calling for me to learn calisthenics and I finally decided to go for it . I am on week 7 and seeing great results . Always wanting to learn the Crow pose and I finally got it accomplished through her program . Also I look and feel stronger in such a short period of time. Summer is such a great coach and inspiration . I get the feeling she is a wonderful person too.❤️
I’m glad you’ve posted this as I’ve been considering investing in this training regime as a treat at some point, I’m so desperate to get into it following building some general muscle and strength in the gym, I want a capable body that can do really cool things and her course seems the place to achieve this :)
@@nadinealaloul6208 Hey Nadine, I actually have an easier program than the one she did if you're looking to ease your way into starting calisthenics. It's just 3 days per week, for 30 minutes. For a program comparison, visit: summerfunfitness.com/calisthenics-programs-for-all/
True athlete. To be honest I find Summer's instructional videos to be better than a lot of if not all the other ones I find on TH-cam. I think that she has needed to really dial in and understand training very well in order to become as strong as she is now
I have never been so starstruck. And it's because you're so sweet and down to earth, clear and fun to listen to, about the prettiest thing I've ever seen, and such a toned and cut animal! Altogether, you're as close to a media hero I have ever had. I wish you a wonderful life! 😘 👐
Love your work, love your attitude, love your position on veganism and plant based eating. Thank you for speaking on protein obsession the way you are here, it's necessary for people to hear this.
I love your balanced approach to it all, and the acknowledgment that this is just what your body is when you’re strong and fit, rather than what you’re trying to make it look like had me going, “Yes.” Congrats on what you’ve achieved Summer 🎉🎉🎉
Hey Summer! Your beginner calisthenics plan was awesome for me - I have been a yoga teacher for years and have a lot of arm balancing strength, but I realized that yoga alone can be lacking in that it is all “push” and no “pull”. When I first started your workout plan, I was surprised that I couldn’t do a single pull up, despite having the arm strength to hold a crow pose for 60+ seconds. By the end of the program I could do three unassisted pull ups in a row, and my next goal is to get to 10! This video was really informative, especially your discussion on your diet, since I’m vegan myself and I have been worrying about eating loads of protein, but I’m realizing that I’m focusing too much on macros and not enough on micronutrients and just eating whole plant foods. Thank you for the reminder ✌️🌱
Thank you Summer for your activity, for a positive view of life, for an example of achieving your dream staying in tune with ethics. Kind regards to you!
You have such high quality content and you are the reason i got into calisthenics! I got my first pullup and chin ups thanks to you and also just got my first 8 second handstand hold!! You deserve so many more views, i look forward to seeing your posts every week!!
I've been vegetarian since 1994 and occasionally vegan. I've trained in martial arts for 41 years and found that I feel better, can train harder, and have fewer health issues than my non vegetarian friends. Anyhow, thanks for the great videos, and good luck with your goals.
This girl is impressively strong yet not overly masculine. Excellent muscle control. Messing with her on the street wouldn't end well for an aggressor. I would suggest she dabble a bit in BJJ or Judo, just because.
I clearly see that Summer embodies so much compassion for helping others. I hear it in her voice. This Woman is beautifully human. ♠️THE VANITY ADDICT♠️
I’m the only person in my family that goes to the gym, and I can relate to your words so much, you give me so much hope Summer, who ever gave that name knew that you will be the sun shine for so many lives out there, keep up!
So many times I've heard advice to do something you love for fitness. But really the only things I've ever loved to do was gymnastics, skiing, and swimming - and running whenever I wasn't injured... from running. Without a mountain or pool, I was super excited when I found calisthenics on TH-cam! But I didn't know if a woman could do calisthenics the same as someone like Chris Heria, but now that I've found your channel I see they can - and I'm going for it! I am probably going to binge all the info on your cannel now. Thanks so muchl!
You're very inspirational Summer, thank you ❤ I'm a 35 yo lady and been doing a lot of sports since I was a teenager, yet I've dreamed for years to get into calisthenics and have mobility freedom. I can do just 1 pull-up but you're giving me the motivation that I could have your strength one day :)
You’re such a beautiful person overall. And you do such an amazing in the self care department which makes me happy. Happy because you’re doing that for your self and the fact that I found your page. Love calisthenics too.
The earlier in life a person gets started in physical fitness the better. It makes a big difference in later years of life. Deep tissue development is key when young as later in life it is easier to reactivate deep tissue and get in better shape more rapidly than someone who didn't. Staying in shape is best.
Your videos are instructional and motivational; you're recordings of the handstand progressions are very motivating. Small gains are permanent gains. Plus you look like you are having a blast, and that is the point, yeah? You just got up off the couch one day and decided to do it and then again the next day. You are an inspiration.
Its disheartening to see such foul, depraved or misogynistic comments time and time again on your videos. I hope you see them for the bullshit they are and dont let them get to you. You are an inspiration through and through! Youre clearly hardworking, knowledgeable, smart, capable, and very good at what you do! I hope life treats you well!
we have similar background in workout history! I love the fun of calisthenics, and the continuing challenge. Immediate sub to your channel. thank you for being here!
You would be surprised different diets work for different people. The typical advice spreading online doesn’t work for me I feel a lot healthier and stronger with one customized to me
The Mobility (4:20) became so important for me. I did many sports in younger years. Between 30 and 40 I neglected this and it felt more and more bad. It wasnt the strange that I missed but all those easy movements like put your socks on your feet became more and more difficult. I begann to hate those feelings and now I do 4-5h sports/week now over a year. And I mix dumpbell, kettlebell, bodyweight workouts and cardio with stretch and mobility and.... I'm a new man 😂 have fun with sports, have fun with all your daily movements ✊🎉
Scary to put yourself out there. Lots of strange people in the world. I've been doing calisthenics for 10 years. I'm working on the world record one arm. I can do it. You are doing good forms. You are very strong . I like watching your progressions
Just wanted to tell you, you're amazing and have an amazing youtube channel. Great balance of advice, tips, technique, exercise examples, inspiration, motivation etc. Your delivery is excellent. And being quite attractive helps too 😊.
Hey Summer liked the video and of course I know you probably have 200 more questions that people have asked hoping to get answered soon so why not add a few more hahaha. You speak a lot about things that you’ve become comfortable with over time and is very current and more relevant to who you are now. When you were younger what is something you were challenged with and worked hard to over come aside from training ?? Something more personal about you. Share a random fact that not many people know about you?
I found you while scrolling through YT shorts. I figured that you were just another girl seeking certain attention disguised as an exercise channel… the more you popped up I realized that your routines are pretty helpful. I dedicate 2 days a week to doing your workouts and I feel great after doing them. It’s a break from my usual free weight and cable workouts. And like you said .. you can do this anywhere , especially when on vacation. Keep up the good content.
Thank you, you are so nice! I have started following you after I saw your dancing pull-ups - its a very beautiful skill and you seem like a very good artist, the dog portrait is amazing.
you said you are focusing on two movements right now. my question is, once you nail the iron cross, if you move on to a new movement, will it be easy to maintain the ability to perform it going forward? does the body have a type of muscle memory for these advanced calisthetnics movements?
I find it easy to maintain a skill if I have spent a significant time working on it. If I only barely achieve it and then move on, I need more training to get it back to the same level. For example, if you work hard to get your first pull-up, then you stop, you'll probably need a bit more training to achieve it again (albeit less than it initially took). However, if you spend a few months working on building up your pull-ups to the point that it becomes super easy for you, then you take a break, you'll still (more than likely) be able to do pull-ups when you return. I think if I achieve the cross consistently, then upgrade to even harder skills, that I will maintain that strength. But, if I decide I'm sick of the cross and I want to try something new and not build upon that strength, then I'm sure I'll lose some of the gains I made. But I'm just training for fun, so I don't mind if I work towards the cross, then change things up entirely. The point is that I enjoyed the effort of working towards it.
Hey, I've got two pressing questions for you! First, I'm dying to get into calisthenics but I need a jumpstart-it's hard to motivate myself when the only spotter I have is my cat. Second, do you have a workout buddy? Because I'd love to team up and turn our calisthenics session into a fun date. What do you think?
Hello Summer, I was wondering do you play any instruments cause I saw a piano in the backgoround of one of your videos? Also I have found your handstand workouts really effective so far!
Hi. Congratulations on your success. I am curious about the vegan approach. I am myself trying to be one. I do not have a dog yet, but I am curious how vegan people feed their pets. Kind regards.
I am a vegetarian who knows many vegans with dogs. Most feed their dogs regular dog food. You can feed your dog vegan food. Dogs can be vegans. But it takes a lot of work. I have a cat, and cats are necessarily carnivores. They have to eat meat. I wouldn't worry to much about being a purist. Do what you do for you, and don't worry too much about the dog. You can't change the world, only yourself.
@@ElSantoLuchador Hi. Makes sense - I suspect, that making dog vegan might be too much for them and probably might be with determent to their health. I do not intend to change animal's nature only my own, but I was just curious how vegan people deal with this conundrum. Thank you for the reply.
Hi! It's possible to look for regular dog food with certificates as cage free chicken. Feeding them organic food is a way to reduce ecological impact and achieve some ethical goals
@@luizasandrino4014 Hi 👋. That seems like good idea. Once I have dog or cat I will try to befriend trusted farmer, if not then I will be looking at certified food. I once was working at pet food factory and this is not kind of place I want to support for sure, horrible sight horrible job. God Bless.
I’m a bit older. Have any particular moves or training habits resulted in injuries, to your back or especially elbows, knees, or hips? (Saw your wrist warm-up vid). My pull-up and handstand training has resulted in some elbow pain, so I’m backing off for now. Thanks for inspiring me!
hi hi i know im not summer but i also had elbow pain when i first started training pullups because i lacked forearm and grip strength. i recommend incorporating some kind of strength work for your forearms and wrists (light dumbbell wrist curls and reverse bicep curls have helped me a ton!). In terms of calisthenics this could also look like training false grip and dead hangs. also take a look at your grip in pullups and make sure it is a nice straight line from knuckles to wrists to elbow - flexion at the wrist can cause the forearms to over engage and pull on the elbows. working with an overhand grip helped me correct this personally. hope this helps!
You are in great shape, you have more developed muscles than me, 😉😀although I take anabolic steroids, but I often get injured because of my future training with heavy weights.
@@socloseagain4298 Nope, regular ones, with varying distances between hands. And also scapular pushups. All pushups are good pushups, as long as the form is good. Good luck with your training! :)
@@dorn0475 Oh I see, thanks! 😀I just dont have any hope sadly tho it feels like becouse this is a bone and not a muscle I think it's impossible to fix but I hope im wrong! 😅
@@socloseagain4298 bones are moved around by muscles and stay in place thanks to muscles, besides ligaments, so if your problem is due to a muscle imbalance it could be fixed with targeted exercises, I would ask a physical therapist because these kind of things are very hard to figure out on your own
Hi summer, you probably were not able to transport weights on your move but do you have any weights and if so what type and how heavy, and do you feel they should be used by everyone for range of motion, and is your ethnicity French? 🙏
@@Summerfunfitness THANK YOU for your reply‼️ I apologize because I have heard you say you are body weight only. I just got confused in video squatting with light weight for depth. My thoughts were if they helped to increase your ability to stretch further. I wish I would have not lifted heavy weights in my younger years as I am unable to get a side split. I am sorry if I offended you when I asked whats your ethnicity. 🙏
I do things out of my comfort zone all the time. For example, I drove two weeks across two countries to move to a small town I'd never been to before, where we knew no one. I also surf every weekend to support my partner even though I'm terrified of the waves and surfing :P Not to mention, I run my own business where I consistently push myself into discomfort in order to grow. For example, this video was the hardest video I've ever shot.
That in my eyes tells me so much more about you as a person. Honestly your videos are so professionally put together I was wondering if you were reading off a script hahha. Honestly your videos you’re so calm and professional would have never thought that was something out of your comfort zone. But it’s really cool to get to know you as a person. Lol I’m in Canada still haha still freezing all winter 😂. Interesting that the water and big waves scare you a bit cause it would scare me as well. Does your boyfriend know that it’s hard for you ?? Can’t say I run my own business so I don’t know what that’s like. But you must be a good people person cause you’re reliant on people to grow yourself as well. Very nice of you to reply Summer 😊 I cannot imagine how busy you are.
Hey! Thanks for choosing my program. It starts the Monday after purchase. You should have received the app download link via email. The program will populate at midnight. For more help, please send me an email with your full name to summer@summerfunfitness.com
I can only speak for myself, but it took me 8 months of training in the gym 2-3 times a week for an hour to get my first pullup -- which was in March this year. One month later, I can do 2 pullups in a row. And I'm going to keep going, trying to get to 5 pullups in a row. I probably could have gotten my first pullup faster if I trained more and spent more time specifically on achieving the pullup, but I didn't. I say keep going and don't worry about how long it'll take, as long as you can see results, like you're getting stronger, that's most important. And one day, you'll find you can do a pullup.
I don't know my uncle was vegan for many years many decades actually while I was growing up. Then he started getting health problems. Now his body cannot tolerate anything except meat. That's really the only thing he can eat that doesn't mess with him. He's got problems where his stomach bloats up and it looks like he's overweight but really his stomach is bloated because his body can't tolerate anything except meat. He's 50 now and he doesn't expect to live much longer. He's got problems in his fingers where they curl up and he can't extend them all the way. It's because he was vegetarian for so many decades. He was always sort of athletic too he was a martial artist he had four black belts. Just saying veganism might seem good now but in the long run, you might get problems like my uncle did. I mean God said that animals are here for us to use and to eat. And then you don't believe in that now but I mean, I know that it's true. Things like hunting, I don't hunt a farm-raised animal is this purpose is to be raised for food. You have to kill it humanely where there's no pain. It looks like it's working for you though however I would be worried about the long-term effects of abstaining from meat
Sounds like he was a vegan that didn't eat very healthy. Vegans have to really, really be on top of their nutrition or things can go wrong. There are no real studies on longevity and vegans, but studies suggest vegetarians do live longer, although it's not a slam dunk. Most people around me eat meat and I don't even blink. And as a vegetarian I don't hate hunters. I rate them higher than people who buy meat from the store and pretend like they're above it all. A Big Mac eater that claims hunting is cruel is a hypocrite on steroids. It's more honest to know where your meat comes from. Even though I don't eat meat, I respect your position and I would never judge you.
@ElSantoLuchador LOL but you're judging people who don't hunt LOL I only feel that it's the Lord's will lead I should not hunt pick up a wild animal is that as its purpose and that a farm raised animal is to be raised for food. I work at a place that processes cows. We do over 2000 cows a day. Mostly how I see cows raised is is pretty fine I mean they're pretty lazy animals they just walk around a little bit and eat. Pretty sure most of them don't have steroids. I mean I helped my friends on their Farm before and those cows look fine they got a bunch of cows and they got a bull that they use to breed the cows and I didn't see anything wrong with the way they were raised. There's a lot of farms around me it's a pretty good agriculture area and I don't see anything wrong with how the animals are raised. I don't really see anything wrong with the process of how we process the cows either. But I do see something wrong with your hunting a wild animal and you know it's got friends and it's got a family and it's got a life. It has a mate probably. Probably offspring. It's just out minding its own business and then it gets shot which may or may not kill it right away and it could suffer for a while before it dies and it has that traumatic experience. So I feel like I don't agree with hunting anything unless I have to. As in if there's no Farm raised animal to eat. I've never seen anything wrong with the way most animals are raised even when it's for food. Ex . However most of the time I just see them out in the field and just walking around or laying down and eating because that is really all they do. However you're right there's no studies on longevity in vegetarians or vegans. And he may have not been the healthiest eater I guess. I do know that vegan diets are much more complicated because you got to get all your protein and a lot of protein from Plants doesn't have the complete protein it only has some of the amino acids that your body needs and so you have to get some of it from some plants and some of it from other plants. So I believe that God wants us to eat meat because he said that so I don't I don't see anything wrong with eating meat I feel like it's a good thing. I will get the prophet who is 99 years old and very capable still. He's never been a vegan. My great grandpa live to like 102 I think. He was like 99 years old he could still drive his car from state to state. So I guess you're about how the vegan diet can go wrong. And I guess my purpose for not hunting is that it was prophesied that the lamb and the lion will lie down together and the lion will eat straw like the ox and all the animals will get along and they won't hurt her destroy each other and a little child shall lead them. So I feel like that's something we should start working towards. So I don't think we should go harm wild animals, I think we should feed them. However the farm raised animals it's sort of a relationship where you can be friends with the animal and then still eat it because it dies pretty humanely. The cows get shot in the head with a nail gun and that's really the quickest least painful way for them to die because I'm pretty sure they die instantly. I can tell the nervous system Twitches because they sit there and twitch however I'm pretty sure that they're officially dead before their body stops twitching. On the other hand if you go shoot a deer or an elk or something it's probably going to not die instantly, it's going to hurt and it's going to wander around until it bleeds out or dies from trauma or it's lungs stop working or something plus there's the fact that I had friends and a little group that it lives with that will miss it and probably saw and heard what happened. So I do believe the farm raised way is the more merciful and they just way raising animals for food which I do believe are here for us to use for food and for clothing because God said that
@@ElSantoLuchador and I definitely don't judge people who hunt because the only reason I decided that I'm not going to hunt is because I tried to go hunting to impress a girl mostly and then I got that Revelation from the Lord that I should only hunt for what I need that a farmer's animal is that is his purpose is to be raised for food and that the lamb and the lion will lie down together and the lion will eat straw like the ox and that prophecy is something that we should help with and start working towards. That's the only reason I don't hunt and I realize not everyone has gotten that Revelation yet. So I don't judge people who hunt however I don't do it then I'm not going to say that it's a good thing
@@ElSantoLuchador I guess my uncle did like a lot of pizza and then tofu and other kinds of things. However I feel bad because he's 50 and he still looks pretty healthy except for his bloated stomach and His fingers won't extend all the way. I feel like his parents probably should have tried to talk him out of it before I got to that point however I don't think anyone knew that he would get problems like that I don't think anyone knew that he would get problems like. However I I think you are right he probably wasn't the healthiest eater when it came to vegetarianism
Thanks for amazing tips for working out. I do admire such a strength and discipline :) However I'd rather keep eating in carnivore style so I do not need additional supplies like mg, protein powders, creatine or B12. It's just more natural :)
Something doesn't add up with her claims of becoming that jacked from veganism alone. All the vegans I've ever seen looked malnourished, and/or sickly and ill
@@rs4208 not true, I know some jacked vegans, but their nutrition is on point, my point is you can be jacked as a vegan but you have to be knowledgeable about getting all the nutrients you need, which many vegans, (and many non-vegans as well) don't. Remember that many non vegans are overweight and probably deficient on some important nutrients. The only thing is it's easier to meet (end exceed) your caloric needs on a diet with animal products than on a vegan diet. And I'm saying this as a non vegan
@@luisa146I get what you're saying but plant proteins are absolutely inferior to animal proteins when it comes to muscle growth. I can absolutely believe a vegetarian could get just as big as a meat eater, but vegans? Still don't buy it
This was our first time here, so we didn't jump to become citizens yet. Unfortunately, our current visas will end, and we'll need to go back to Canada and then decide on what our next steps are.

You would be surprised different diets work for different people. The typical advice spreading online doesn’t work for me I feel a lot healthier and stronger with one customized to me
Cardio doesn't make you stronger tho.
Some even say too much cardio kills gains but that sounds like gymbro science (bs) for me.
The Mobility (4:20) became so important for me. I did many sports in younger years. Between 30 and 40 I neglected this and it felt more and more bad. It wasnt the strange that I missed but all those easy movements like put your socks on your feet became more and more difficult. I begann to hate those feelings and now I do 4-5h sports/week now over a year. And I mix dumpbell, kettlebell, bodyweight workouts and cardio with stretch and mobility and.... I'm a new man 😂 have fun with sports, have fun with all your daily movements ✊🎉
Scary to put yourself out there.
Lots of strange people in the world. I've been doing calisthenics for 10 years. I'm working on the world record one arm. I can do it. You are doing good forms. You are very strong . I like watching your progressions
I just purchased compliment vitamin using your code. Took $11 off. Not bad! Thank you.
Thanks you are so hardworking
Just wanted to tell you, you're amazing and have an amazing youtube channel.
Great balance of advice, tips, technique, exercise examples, inspiration, motivation etc. Your delivery is excellent.
And being quite attractive helps too 😊.
Just discovered your channel girl!! As someone else from Canada I hear you!!! Just started my calisthenics journey, you are very inspiring!!
Hey Summer liked the video and of course I know you probably have 200 more questions that people have asked hoping to get answered soon so why not add a few more hahaha.
You speak a lot about things that you’ve become comfortable with over time and is very current and more relevant to who you are now. When you were younger what is something you were challenged with and worked hard to over come aside from training ?? Something more personal about you.
Share a random fact that not many people know about you?
I found you while scrolling through YT shorts. I figured that you were just another girl seeking certain attention disguised as an exercise channel… the more you popped up I realized that your routines are pretty helpful.
I dedicate 2 days a week to doing your workouts and I feel great after doing them. It’s a break from my usual free weight and cable workouts.
And like you said .. you can do this anywhere , especially when on vacation.
Keep up the good content.
Thanks for the video, youre amazing and and inspiring ❤
Hair down summer is the best version
Thank you, you are so nice! I have started following you after I saw your dancing pull-ups - its a very beautiful skill and you seem like a very good artist, the dog portrait is amazing.
Appreciate the advice queen. Stay hard!
Love this! 🙌💪🌱❤
I'm in love
She’s pretty and looks like Meadow Soprano
I use a stand up desk at work ever since the book Sitting Kills
I had a standing desk in Canada. Unfortunately, it didn't fit in the car ride down here :P
Great vid, tons of inspiration
Thanks!
I wish I had a partner who would eat like you! 😅
I swear we should all marry who eats the best! That's the #1 step to being healthy and strong.
you said you are focusing on two movements right now. my question is, once you nail the iron cross, if you move on to a new movement, will it be easy to maintain the ability to perform it going forward? does the body have a type of muscle memory for these advanced calisthetnics movements?
I find it easy to maintain a skill if I have spent a significant time working on it. If I only barely achieve it and then move on, I need more training to get it back to the same level.
For example, if you work hard to get your first pull-up, then you stop, you'll probably need a bit more training to achieve it again (albeit less than it initially took). However, if you spend a few months working on building up your pull-ups to the point that it becomes super easy for you, then you take a break, you'll still (more than likely) be able to do pull-ups when you return.
I think if I achieve the cross consistently, then upgrade to even harder skills, that I will maintain that strength. But, if I decide I'm sick of the cross and I want to try something new and not build upon that strength, then I'm sure I'll lose some of the gains I made.
But I'm just training for fun, so I don't mind if I work towards the cross, then change things up entirely. The point is that I enjoyed the effort of working towards it.
@@Summerfunfitness that makes sense. Thanks for the response ! 😁
Hey, I've got two pressing questions for you! First, I'm dying to get into calisthenics but I need a jumpstart-it's hard to motivate myself when the only spotter I have is my cat. Second, do you have a workout buddy? Because I'd love to team up and turn our calisthenics session into a fun date. What do you think?
Have you ever suffered injuries throughout your callisthenics journey? And if so how did you overcome them? X
No injuries thus far 😊
More vegan topics in the future please 🤩
Those who are skilled at calisthenics have a nice physique as well as strength & flexibility
Please share some of your favorite recipes, thank you for sharing your story!
I just eat fatty red meat, salt and water. I got healthy doing that.
Steak and eggs.
Consistent, self disciplined and strong personality 💪💪💪👍👋Respect, Subscription , Like !!! Keep on doing it )))
So pretty
Thank you ❤
Thank you so much, miss Summer! What are a few of your favorite vegan recipes?
VERY VERY AWESOME LADY
you are awesomeee, Miss Summer :3
Why no creatine and no pre workout tho?!
Btw I'm suprised she's natty. She's really strong, must be elite genetics + obviously a lot of hard work
Походи на гимнастику, увидишь подобное. Балансировка покрывает все мышцы
If you ever release an iOS app - I will *GLADLY* pay the yearly fee.
Hello Summer, I was wondering do you play any instruments cause I saw a piano in the backgoround of one of your videos? Also I have found your handstand workouts really effective so far!
Hi. Congratulations on your success. I am curious about the vegan approach. I am myself trying to be one. I do not have a dog yet, but I am curious how vegan people feed their pets. Kind regards.
I am a vegetarian who knows many vegans with dogs. Most feed their dogs regular dog food. You can feed your dog vegan food. Dogs can be vegans. But it takes a lot of work. I have a cat, and cats are necessarily carnivores. They have to eat meat. I wouldn't worry to much about being a purist. Do what you do for you, and don't worry too much about the dog. You can't change the world, only yourself.
@@ElSantoLuchador Hi. Makes sense - I suspect, that making dog vegan might be too much for them and probably might be with determent to their health. I do not intend to change animal's nature only my own, but I was just curious how vegan people deal with this conundrum. Thank you for the reply.
Hi! It's possible to look for regular dog food with certificates as cage free chicken. Feeding them organic food is a way to reduce ecological impact and achieve some ethical goals
@@luizasandrino4014 Hi 👋. That seems like good idea. Once I have dog or cat I will try to befriend trusted farmer, if not then I will be looking at certified food. I once was working at pet food factory and this is not kind of place I want to support for sure, horrible sight horrible job. God Bless.
You mentioned you read a lot of books after completing your personal training certification. What are the top 1-3 you would recommend?
- Harry Potter
- the Holy Bible
- Esau's Tears
Dearest Summerfunfitness. I have been training handstands for years and I still can't do it. Please help!!
I’m a bit older. Have any particular moves or training habits resulted in injuries, to your back or especially elbows, knees, or hips? (Saw your wrist warm-up vid). My pull-up and handstand training has resulted in some elbow pain, so I’m backing off for now. Thanks for inspiring me!
hi hi i know im not summer but i also had elbow pain when i first started training pullups because i lacked forearm and grip strength. i recommend incorporating some kind of strength work for your forearms and wrists (light dumbbell wrist curls and reverse bicep curls have helped me a ton!). In terms of calisthenics this could also look like training false grip and dead hangs. also take a look at your grip in pullups and make sure it is a nice straight line from knuckles to wrists to elbow - flexion at the wrist can cause the forearms to over engage and pull on the elbows. working with an overhand grip helped me correct this personally. hope this helps!
Interesting. I'm pretty sure I've seen fruits and vegetables like that in the stores year
You are in great shape, you have more developed muscles than me, 😉😀although I take anabolic steroids, but I often get injured because of my future training with heavy weights.
no one is asking about her workout wear brand😢
I'm wearing a lot of Do You Even these days.

Cuando vuelvas a venir a México me avisas para ir a conocerte 😍😍😍😍
Have u ever had or helped someone fix a "winged scapula" issue they had going on? I have it and it really bugs me out when I do pullups 😞
Good-form pushups are what my physiotherapist suggested. I am seeing improvements, but it is not a fast change.
@@dorn0475 Hmm are those the fist pushups? 🤔Cuz I've been doing them a bit and they feel nice
@@socloseagain4298 Nope, regular ones, with varying distances between hands. And also scapular pushups. All pushups are good pushups, as long as the form is good. Good luck with your training! :)
@@dorn0475 Oh I see, thanks! 😀I just dont have any hope sadly tho it feels like becouse this is a bone and not a muscle I think it's impossible to fix but I hope im wrong! 😅
@@socloseagain4298 bones are moved around by muscles and stay in place thanks to muscles, besides ligaments, so if your problem is due to a muscle imbalance it could be fixed with targeted exercises, I would ask a physical therapist because these kind of things are very hard to figure out on your own
Hi, Summer. I'm Zaire Haylock. I love your new video. ❤❤❤
Hi summer, you probably were not able to transport weights on your move but do you have any weights and if so what type and how heavy, and do you feel they should be used by everyone for range of motion, and is your ethnicity French? 🙏
I don’t have any weights other than a water jug, but I rarely use it.
I am not French 🤷🏽♀️
@@Summerfunfitness THANK YOU for your reply‼️ I apologize because I have heard you say you are body weight only. I just got confused in video squatting with light weight for depth. My thoughts were if they helped to increase your ability to stretch further. I wish I would have not lifted heavy weights in my younger years as I am unable to get a side split. I am sorry if I offended you when I asked whats your ethnicity. 🙏
When’s the last time you tried something out of your comfort zone ?
I do things out of my comfort zone all the time. For example, I drove two weeks across two countries to move to a small town I'd never been to before, where we knew no one. I also surf every weekend to support my partner even though I'm terrified of the waves and surfing :P Not to mention, I run my own business where I consistently push myself into discomfort in order to grow. For example, this video was the hardest video I've ever shot.
That in my eyes tells me so much more about you as a person. Honestly your videos are so professionally put together I was wondering if you were reading off a script hahha. Honestly your videos you’re so calm and professional would have never thought that was something out of your comfort zone. But it’s really cool to get to know you as a person. Lol I’m in Canada still haha still freezing all winter 😂. Interesting that the water and big waves scare you a bit cause it would scare me as well. Does your boyfriend know that it’s hard for you ??
Can’t say I run my own business so I don’t know what that’s like. But you must be a good people person cause you’re reliant on people to grow yourself as well.
Very nice of you to reply Summer 😊 I cannot imagine how busy you are.
I bought your program, but having trouble accessing it. I didn't find anywhere on the website to address this issue.
Help plz
Hey! Thanks for choosing my program. It starts the Monday after purchase. You should have received the app download link via email. The program will populate at midnight.
For more help, please send me an email with your full name to summer@summerfunfitness.com
Family?
🙏
Love you Summer ❤
I always dreamed of staying vegan but I have a family. SOOOO tuff.
Where in Canada are you from? Canadian girl here too 🇨🇦
let’s collab!
how much time did it take u to get your 1st pull up, it spent more than 2 months now and still didn't get the 1st pull up
I spent **
I can only speak for myself, but it took me 8 months of training in the gym 2-3 times a week for an hour to get my first pullup -- which was in March this year. One month later, I can do 2 pullups in a row. And I'm going to keep going, trying to get to 5 pullups in a row. I probably could have gotten my first pullup faster if I trained more and spent more time specifically on achieving the pullup, but I didn't. I say keep going and don't worry about how long it'll take, as long as you can see results, like you're getting stronger, that's most important. And one day, you'll find you can do a pullup.
She's pretty
VEGANS W
She's not a Vegan - her diet is vegan, but it doesn't define her. I like how she never defines herself as "I'm vegan".
@@rinzler9775 she’s vegan. she has said she’s vegan and only has vegan products.
Helleo summer time what's shoe size u wear
I don't know my uncle was vegan for many years many decades actually while I was growing up. Then he started getting health problems. Now his body cannot tolerate anything except meat. That's really the only thing he can eat that doesn't mess with him. He's got problems where his stomach bloats up and it looks like he's overweight but really his stomach is bloated because his body can't tolerate anything except meat. He's 50 now and he doesn't expect to live much longer. He's got problems in his fingers where they curl up and he can't extend them all the way. It's because he was vegetarian for so many decades. He was always sort of athletic too he was a martial artist he had four black belts. Just saying veganism might seem good now but in the long run, you might get problems like my uncle did.
I mean God said that animals are here for us to use and to eat. And then you don't believe in that now but I mean, I know that it's true. Things like hunting, I don't hunt a farm-raised animal is this purpose is to be raised for food. You have to kill it humanely where there's no pain.
It looks like it's working for you though however I would be worried about the long-term effects of abstaining from meat
Sounds like he was a vegan that didn't eat very healthy. Vegans have to really, really be on top of their nutrition or things can go wrong. There are no real studies on longevity and vegans, but studies suggest vegetarians do live longer, although it's not a slam dunk. Most people around me eat meat and I don't even blink. And as a vegetarian I don't hate hunters. I rate them higher than people who buy meat from the store and pretend like they're above it all. A Big Mac eater that claims hunting is cruel is a hypocrite on steroids. It's more honest to know where your meat comes from. Even though I don't eat meat, I respect your position and I would never judge you.
@ElSantoLuchador LOL but you're judging people who don't hunt LOL I only feel that it's the Lord's will lead I should not hunt pick up a wild animal is that as its purpose and that a farm raised animal is to be raised for food. I work at a place that processes cows. We do over 2000 cows a day. Mostly how I see cows raised is is pretty fine I mean they're pretty lazy animals they just walk around a little bit and eat. Pretty sure most of them don't have steroids. I mean I helped my friends on their Farm before and those cows look fine they got a bunch of cows and they got a bull that they use to breed the cows and I didn't see anything wrong with the way they were raised. There's a lot of farms around me it's a pretty good agriculture area and I don't see anything wrong with how the animals are raised. I don't really see anything wrong with the process of how we process the cows either. But I do see something wrong with your hunting a wild animal and you know it's got friends and it's got a family and it's got a life. It has a mate probably. Probably offspring. It's just out minding its own business and then it gets shot which may or may not kill it right away and it could suffer for a while before it dies and it has that traumatic experience. So I feel like I don't agree with hunting anything unless I have to. As in if there's no Farm raised animal to eat. I've never seen anything wrong with the way most animals are raised even when it's for food. Ex . However most of the time I just see them out in the field and just walking around or laying down and eating because that is really all they do. However you're right there's no studies on longevity in vegetarians or vegans. And he may have not been the healthiest eater I guess. I do know that vegan diets are much more complicated because you got to get all your protein and a lot of protein from Plants doesn't have the complete protein it only has some of the amino acids that your body needs and so you have to get some of it from some plants and some of it from other plants. So I believe that God wants us to eat meat because he said that so I don't I don't see anything wrong with eating meat I feel like it's a good thing. I will get the prophet who is 99 years old and very capable still. He's never been a vegan. My great grandpa live to like 102 I think. He was like 99 years old he could still drive his car from state to state. So I guess you're about how the vegan diet can go wrong.
And I guess my purpose for not hunting is that it was prophesied that the lamb and the lion will lie down together and the lion will eat straw like the ox and all the animals will get along and they won't hurt her destroy each other and a little child shall lead them. So I feel like that's something we should start working towards. So I don't think we should go harm wild animals, I think we should feed them. However the farm raised animals it's sort of a relationship where you can be friends with the animal and then still eat it because it dies pretty humanely. The cows get shot in the head with a nail gun and that's really the quickest least painful way for them to die because I'm pretty sure they die instantly. I can tell the nervous system Twitches because they sit there and twitch however I'm pretty sure that they're officially dead before their body stops twitching. On the other hand if you go shoot a deer or an elk or something it's probably going to not die instantly, it's going to hurt and it's going to wander around until it bleeds out or dies from trauma or it's lungs stop working or something plus there's the fact that I had friends and a little group that it lives with that will miss it and probably saw and heard what happened. So I do believe the farm raised way is the more merciful and they just way raising animals for food which I do believe are here for us to use for food and for clothing because God said that
@@ElSantoLuchador and I definitely don't judge people who hunt because the only reason I decided that I'm not going to hunt is because I tried to go hunting to impress a girl mostly and then I got that Revelation from the Lord that I should only hunt for what I need that a farmer's animal is that is his purpose is to be raised for food and that the lamb and the lion will lie down together and the lion will eat straw like the ox and that prophecy is something that we should help with and start working towards.
That's the only reason I don't hunt and I realize not everyone has gotten that Revelation yet. So I don't judge people who hunt however I don't do it then I'm not going to say that it's a good thing
@@ElSantoLuchador however I'm also not going to judge as to why someone needs to hunt either.
@@ElSantoLuchador I guess my uncle did like a lot of pizza and then tofu and other kinds of things. However I feel bad because he's 50 and he still looks pretty healthy except for his bloated stomach and His fingers won't extend all the way. I feel like his parents probably should have tried to talk him out of it before I got to that point however I don't think anyone knew that he would get problems like that I don't think anyone knew that he would get problems like. However I I think you are right he probably wasn't the healthiest eater when it came to vegetarianism
How's your Spanish coming along?
muy bien
Thanks for amazing tips for working out. I do admire such a strength and discipline :) However I'd rather keep eating in carnivore style so I do not need additional supplies like mg, protein powders, creatine or B12. It's just more natural :)
Something doesn't add up with her claims of becoming that jacked from veganism alone. All the vegans I've ever seen looked malnourished, and/or sickly and ill
if you’re “carnivore”, you actually need MORE supplements. simple biology.
@@rs4208 not true, I know some jacked vegans, but their nutrition is on point, my point is you can be jacked as a vegan but you have to be knowledgeable about getting all the nutrients you need, which many vegans, (and many non-vegans as well) don't. Remember that many non vegans are overweight and probably deficient on some important nutrients. The only thing is it's easier to meet (end exceed) your caloric needs on a diet with animal products than on a vegan diet. And I'm saying this as a non vegan
@@luisa146I get what you're saying but plant proteins are absolutely inferior to animal proteins when it comes to muscle growth. I can absolutely believe a vegetarian could get just as big as a meat eater, but vegans? Still don't buy it
Et cetera

Are you paying taxes to Mexico now that you live and work there? What was the immigration process like?
This was our first time here, so we didn't jump to become citizens yet. Unfortunately, our current visas will end, and we'll need to go back to Canada and then decide on what our next steps are.
