This is why I'm loving calisthenics: pick the ones you like the look of, and do that. That's pretty much exactly what I'm doing, and I'm happier than I ever was lifting weights.
I think the skill content is higher, so you're training something that takes a long time, but will stay with you. I'm 53 and glad for doing such moves earlier in life
a veritable encylopedia of static holds. impressive how you can perform all these one right after the other and describe them as you're doing. i always learn something from your videos. thanks, paul!
Best channel. Been watching for about 1 week. Love the many progressions. Love the focus on folks that are just starting out but also teaching us how to move forward. Very good content. Thank you.
What a brilliant video Paul, I’ve watched loads of your content. This one is worth saving, just for reminder of all the variations. I haven’t seen the ‘air baby’ before, so I’ll be giving that a try, actually hold on, I’ve just tried it…not quite there yet. 😂😢
Hi, you can make a video on how to reach the vertical, step by step. All the exercises. Do you know if these can give problems to the eyes, stay upside down? You are very good. How old are you?😊😊
Start will easier progressions and low volume. Week to week make it slightly harder and increase volume. I prefer to use the skill itself to condition the body
Thats Great! No way are you passed the sell by date!! Work slowly with the progressions and enjoy the journey. 59 is not old for this style of training
You're not too old! I just started at 62. My husband, who is 67, was so impressed with my progress (even on a very basic level) that he is now motivated to begin his own fitness journey. I feel better and am more fit than I was at age 30. At this age, there are days when certain body parts are not being "agreeable"...lol. But I work out anyway and am always glad I did! That, for me, is the biggest mental challenge: getting motivated to work out on some level on days when you don't feel physically optimal.
This is amazing content. I have been watching calisthenics videos for a year and have not seen 20% of this.
Thank you! Great to hear
Amen!

another great video,i struggle to get the knee on the back of the elbow, any tips?
For Air Baby or Standard Crow?
for crow pose@@PaulTwyman
how does one strengthen there wrists for these kinds of movements?
Start will easier progressions and low volume. Week to week make it slightly harder and increase volume. I prefer to use the skill itself to condition the body
@PaulTwyman Thanks alot for responding boss.
Hi Paul, just starting this journey at 59, am I passed my sell by date or is it worth pursuing. I can just about do the crow stand for 10 seconds.
Thats Great! No way are you passed the sell by date!! Work slowly with the progressions and enjoy the journey. 59 is not old for this style of training
