I always did dips but going down slowly, not going up. I didn't know I can put my feet on the floor. I tried it and wow! What a game changer! This will for sure help me finally get to my goal which is doing dips with body weight. Thanks!!
Thank you for this. I’ve started doing the low bench tricep dips. At first I could barely manage 3, one month in and I can now do 2 sets of 10. Looking to raise my feet up next. Excellent video.
This video was very well thought out and executed with taste and intelligence. We beginning calisthenists need more videos like this than some of the others that are out there. Thanks very much.
I feel like my journey to calisthenics has been a really unusual one! I have just joined the gym with the goal of getting my calisthenics on, but in some ways I feel like I have already been training calisthenics without meaning to for the last 8 months as I do aerial hoop (or Lyra) classes on a weekly basis. I absolutely love it and definitely relate to the elation of unlocking a skill. I can't wait to see where calisthenics will take me, both in the gym and in my aerial training! So glad I've found this channel, it feels like a super positive and educational space ❤️
Hey Lucy! I’m a new follower and I can’t express it in words how much you have inspired me! Also, I can relate to you so much because our lives are pretty much similar in terms of fitness. I’ve been overweight my whole life and a mindless eater, just can’t stop indulging and I’ve always found it hard to stop when I’m full. Not anymore though! I’ve been watching your videos (plan to watch all now) and I was going to wait till after diwali (I’m Indian and diwali is almost like Christmas here, big holiday with lots of food and sweets) to start my weightloss journey but, as you say, that’d just be me procrastinating even more and the motivation would never come. Hence, I started a routine on Oct 1st. My goals include mastering at lease one push-up, being able to run a km without panting for life, and many more. It’s been amazing to see myself so motivated and happy. Been working out in the mornings, finding myself happier and feeling lighter already. I don’t plan to weigh myself on the scale yet. I just love your content!! Just want to say a BIG thank you for sharing your story and knowledge with us. Really looking forward to more content on your channel. ♥️
I really enjoy your easy going and happy apperance when you make video's. Even though i do crossfit and not calisthenics I still use your videos to progress. And as per you request, can you do a video covering handstand walks progression, i mysel struggle greatly with keeping balance. Thanks in advance and ill see you in your next video.
Lucy these videos/series are a godsend, well explained and easy to understand🙂😃.Thanks for all the camera angles when show casing the tutorial. We appreciate all your efforts🤩👏🏽🙏🏽I like being part of this community here; and notifications always on for your uploads. Thanks a million honestly and have a fab weekend..I hope you are enjoying the UK🥰.
Always wanted to master the dip . Had a shoulder energy awhile back. Now that my shoulder has improved greatly my mindset is now set at mastering it. I love your demo and will follow your instructions. Much Joy. To your Health and Wellness✨☺️💪🏾
@@lucylismore No - thank you Lucy!!! What I like so much about your videos (and this one in particular) is that you focus specifically on the correct technique as well as outlining common mistakes. Furthermore, I don’t think you left any stone unturned.
I would love if you made a follow up video showing some more options for parallel bar exercises. Or maybe this already exists and I’m just not searching the right terms? I’d love some inspiration of what I can do once I get my dips or some exercises I can do along the way to my first dip that aren’t directly part of the dip progression. Just to find other ways to spend time on the dip bars.
Thank you so much for your helpful calisthenics beginner videos. I was wondering if you think that strength training can help with progression in calisthenics?
Hey Ma'am what is calisthenics? And it's different than gym or gymnastics. And what things to keep in mind when starting doing calisthenics. It's something we learn in gym or can we do it by self by watching your video?
Just found this one years later! I have two strict pull ups and a few push ups but have been trying to learn this. I broke my left forearm in 3 places last July and this is my hardest challenge yet. I can deadlift 150 lbs but can’t dip yet 🤣
@@runsprints4life767 Just be aware that she seems to be sponsored by them (I may be wrong about this). Don't limit yourself to what she uses, there are plenty of options out there, go try some out if you can and make your own decisions for what works best for you. :)
Your beginner progression is very different from the bar dips. You have your hands down, fingers facing forward, behind your hips and shoulders rotated internally. On the bars your hands are facing in toward each other, hands beside hips.
I want to do all those cool calisthenics moves but I don’t where to begin in the gym. I’ve lifted weights for a long time but have no idea how to go about calisthenics there’s no real progression guide of basic to advanced movements

Great video! One thing that really helped me was static hold on the paralletes. I practiced holding for time after a set of push ups.
That’s awesome!! 👏🏻 Thank you for sharing and well done 🙌🏻

I recently started working on dips and now I see how to fix my form. Thank you. 😀
Yay that’s awesome thanks so much!

Thanks for the timeframe info, so we can set realistic goals and not give up thinking we should be seeing results quicker.

This is so helpful! One of the things I struggle with doing dips is hand pain. Any tips?
Thanks for the tips. I can do bench dips. Can now support my weight on parallel bars at the park but they are a jump up plus quite wide apart.

I don't know anything about it, but this is a great beginning. Thanks a lot 🙏
Excellent training video. Everything clearly explained, particularly the progression from the beginning.
Thank you so much because of your videos and motivation I can just start exercise and todays my 6th week 😁
Hi Lucy
This is so beautifully and comprehensively explained.
Thank you so much!!!
Aww thank you Damien! That means a lot! 🙌🏻

You got this 🔥🔥🔥
where did you learn all of your calisthenic skills im a beginner
Is it possible to swivel the feet so they are in line with the bars so the parallettes can slide under the bed or sofa for storage?
Nice 👍
Is it normal for it to feel extremely awkward?
Pushups feel fine, but I can't find my groove with these.
Dear Lucy, what is the brand name of your parallel bars.. They look very sturdy.. I weigh 120 lbs at 5ft 2 inches..
Thanking you in advance..

Also at 2:40 in this video it says bulldog gear "large parallettes" and she put a link to her equipment in the description box.

Strong woman all day you have great form love seeing your muscles contract😊

hello you r doing great😊
my query is can calisthenic exercise helps in curing scalp psoriases?
waiting for your reply.......
Look into the work by the Medical Medium. 🙏
