About halfway through I came to realise the amount of effort you put into this and ALL your videos Dominik. You are a huge inspiration and I thank you for what you do.

Dom, you are seriously one of the most accomplished calisthenics athletes ever. You should be as well known as all the top guys like Medrano and Tatted Strength. You need to get out there on social media and promote yourself more, you are seriously an inspiration.
Let’s appreciate the fact that he could have made a 100 elongated 10 minute videos about each of these exercises with countless sponsors and plugs and had 10m subscribers. But he respected all of our time and made such an awesome compilation.
This is majorly impressive. Not least because you're actually trying to pass on your knowledge for everyone rather than keep it secret. Next level awesome.
Dominik - this guy is seriously crazy - he works out the basic with so much of intensity - he also shows what common mistake can a guy do so he makes a point to highlight the correct workout - he is simply amazing - I personally think his collection are the best motivational stuff available
Am I the only one who were amazed by all of this? I am 15 years old and I have trained in a gym for 6 months now. I was super skinny, but started eating a lot more, and a lot healthier. I started to see results. After 5 months in the gym, learning more and more about training, I came to love rings and bars. I have been doing pull-ups, muscle-ups, dips, and some other ring exercises for some time now, but just recently have I been looking more into bar and ring training. I would love to become really good at Calisthenics one day, and you sure motivated me a lot. (PS: Amazing cat you have got)
Jeez I never thought about a lot of these exercises! Calisthenics is hands down the best way to train in my opinion. I'm being completely bias here but I don't care.
Nice to see this, most people think just doing ab exercises will get them ripped abs... These actually utilize your entire body which is what is needed. These exercises are also going to build muscle which a lot of ab guides don't go far, they only aim to burn fat around the core and it's just a bad idea to focus only on the core if you're trying to burn fat. Need that cardio. Such a simple video but so precise, respect.
Dear Dominik, You're my inspiration for me to get lean and healthy. In the first few months, I couldn't do many simple exercises in your video, but I' keep practicing your exercise, now I can do L-sit advance also L-sit on the ground without a problem in 40 seconds. I was 220 lbs ( 95 kg); however, now I'm 155 lbs, also I had no pack at the beginning, right now have 4 packs and side abs show clearly. All I can say to you is thank you for all your tutorial videos which you have uploaded so far, and this is the first video I've seen from you:), I just want you to know you're my biggest inspiration on getting lean .
dude ive been using your videos for the last year at training for calisthenics, jsut wanted to say thank you so much dude. your my inspiration to keep going, battle the paint and struggle. and achieve things i never thought i could. i managed to lose 22kgs and looking the best i hvae ever while feeling ever better mentally. thank you man
Thank you, I really enjoyed that and got a lot from it. My cat, which I had for 17 years, did not miss one of my workouts that I can recall. Enjoy the friendship while you can.
You are a BEAST brother! Been wasting so much time watching the wrong calisthenics videos, but this is raw! Mad inspiration, keep up the good work and thank you so much for the video!
***** I m doing those as well, finding the benefits of em fast :D but there´s problem I didn´t figure out yet on my own and that is bending in my waist as am about to transmit to dip possition, not the way to use a kip I suppose, my legs just kind a ,,shoot,, forward.. But thanks anyway I ll add more of those in my workouts cheers from Slovakia!
Quov Tsin i guess using 4 fingers could help! (8 if you have 2 hands of course).because when you go up high, you can transition your thumb to the upper side of the bar. btw i think the 4 fingers youll use more your biceps, i always get confused.
Yep. If you keep it under the bar it should be easier to force your palm over the bar, entirely. The transition you know? Somebody could correct if Im wrong but I think its logical except for the muscles used. Still it would be such a good muscle up in terms of strength, no matter which muscle-force youre using since youre getting over the bar. I will search a video for you
Working out in a beautiful garden is far far better than any sweaty expensive gym. Feeds the soul while working the body. Great video. Way above my standard but something to aim for.
+Mees Broersen I personally dont bother with bodyweight legs cuz I get bored of repetitive movements (peoples' legs are generally just too strong to do just bodyweight) Personally, I would suggest just squats and deadlifts for legs, and that helps a lot with your back, core, and generally body stability as well. However, dont go too heavy on these if you want to keep your body weight down. If you want to throw bodyweight stuff in there, do some box jumps, pistol squats, volume lungles (I like to do these over a set distance, like 1km, which makes it more dynamic for me)
I used run with 6 lbs on each leg. Lifted weights. Same body exercises that you do. Ride a bike 3 seasons in every year. In 62yrs old now. I do it all now, except body weights.

Keep Growing! 💪
guys there is no better cardio and safer for your spine than swimming :). Its so damn good for your body and mental health. Not to mention the most importsnt muscle, the heart.
I know that you will probably not answer but it has literally saved the live of my father. We are ment to swim, it is just the best way to live if you mix it up with calisthenic
Why had i forget your channel? Your videos are much better then those new calisthenics, like THENX. Besides this, you are way stronger and gives more useful exercises than the others. Thanks!
Best core lesson every. Step by step. I saw many really good, but that's the best. Only have enough mind power to follow. Thanks. Every kid should see it.
The parts where you showed 'what not to do or how not to do' with the big red X made me laugh so hard. Coz that is exactly what I see many people do and it is very funny! 😁
Shit, I've fallen in love. I really enjoy hanging myself or being upside down xD These are, definitely, exercises i will add to my abs routine! Fun to sweat to this! Thanks!
Man! i started on the beginner part even though i have background of my old workout. i'm on week 4 of this method and it's way different result than before. EFFECTIVE MAN! it still making me cry on the process....fucking painful but worth it haha
You probably the one who I like much Your videos are much better , I like when you make an exercise for beginner and advance ppl. Thank you super athlete .. I enjoy watching your videos
I see you recommend the hollow body position. I understand that the position is standard in gymnastics and is considered good form, but from perspective of general athletics this is counter-intuitive, as many practices in gymnastics are. Is there a rationale founded in bio-mechanics or kineaseology for why I should hollow out my torso to perform planches or back levers? Example: I refuse to land jumps with straight legs just because it is celebrated in gymnastics, and you wouldn't likely recommend others do that because their landings are not for art's sake.
Ok thanks! I have a hard time with that conceptually! Every other primary lift I do I avoid that posture like the plague and I wanted to know if it was a nuance of it's artistic origin or actually functional!
***** My gymnast friends tell me the same tale every time we monkey around (and yes they mention the toes to me with it). So I tried it with the hollow body position today, and I felt it was easier and less stressful on my shoulders, but strangely more fatiguing! Think it could have something to do with approximating the moment arm of the glenohumeral complex with the pelvis? I'm kind of heavy for this kind of activity and don't exactly have the golden ratios so I'm always looking for feedback. Appreciate the time!
1.Best workout room/home gym set up I've ever seen. 2.Great content, one of the better calisthenic videos I've seen. 3.Cat. Makes the video 1000% better. 4. My only gripe, I had to mute the video from 5:30 to 9:30. That music was ass. I feel bad because I'm sure a lot of hard work went in to it and the man posting this video obviously likes it but... it's no good. Couldn't do it.
Hi Dom. This is a by far the most useful and appropriate abs video I have ever seen. Thank you! I'd like to ask you what types of workouts I should focus on. Here's a bit about me. I'm 16, I weigh 69kg and I'm 5'10. I'm very fit and muscular. I have never touched weights, and don't intend to do so. I focus on calisthenics day in and out. I currently have a pull up bar (the ones on the side of the door) so I am unable to practice muscle ups, how ever I try and focus on explosive pull ups in return. I can do 15 perfect form no kip pull ups (I know, not that great, started calisthenics 2 months ago). I get plenty of cardio (5km every 2nd day) I have no equipment, apart from the pull up bar. I do ab workouts every day, but I guess you can call them "pussy" ones. So, I'm curious as to what I should specifically focus on. I workout every single day for an hour straight and I never lose motivation to keep pushing forward. If anyone can reply to me, that would be great!
sebsterkid77 I've yet to set one, but I'd really like to be able to perform most advanced calisthenic moves, such as muscle ups, flag, planche and lever mainly.
***** check out the bodyweight generals on 4chan/asp if you ask there they can help you out with everything. Also the most comprehensive guide by far to bodyweight stuff is the gst series by coach sommer.
***** Pick an exercise you want to achieve (for example front lever). Tomorrow after your workout do some front lever progressions to see where you are at, also barstarzz have a great video on this topic. Then you will see which part of your body in achieving front lever is the "weakest" then you focus on it and continue to do so couple times a week, giving your body enough rest. And every week you should see progress, it might not get you there in a month ( maybe it will ! ) but you will be closer to achieving front lever then you were one month before.
BiMiHi Thanks for the info! Although, I'd like to work on everything at once. Would I just simply try out all the things I want to do, and start progressions on them at once? Possibly split them up into different exercises different days? Thanks.
This is another awesome video. Just when I think I might be able to do some of these exercises, you step it up ten more times and then I am in just awe. You are a beast.
I have watched your videos atleast 1000 times! These tutorials are awesome and much respect for you Dominik! Bought gymnastic rings two days ago and man i can tell its tough! Dips are so hard on those! I will keep practising and some day i will be on your level!
i have to say im pretty impressed. compared to all the "body builders" eternally ongoing explanation videos, ur presentations is by far the most compact, interessting and effectiv. without the use of extended self presentation with words, ur showing how to exercise the right way. plus ur devotion and simplicity is inspirational, cause i do think that pure bodybuilding is kinda pathetic. great stuff, great body, cute cat. be well and hf.
One of those few awesome youtubers i believe to be completely natty. Great exercises too! i can't perform half of them but this way i have something to work for haha. Great work man
Been watching your vids for a long time now, can't get enough!!! Keeps me motivated. Like that you don't take yourself too seriously, not sure if it's just me but always find something funny in them. Been doing calisthenics for just over a year now (so still a beginner) and am totally in love with it, never wanted to be massive, just toned to look like I look after myself, but in the past year I've never felt better or looked as healthy, used to weight train ( not massive weights) go to the gym, but have totally left that behind now, it wasn't nearly as much fun, still go boxing but that's it. I totally disagree with anyone that says this type of training doesn't build muscle, you can do it anywhwere and if things start to get easy you can add some free weights or switch up the exercisers. Like this guy says keep keeping on, stick with it and you'll progress and before you know it you won't recognise yourself or believe what you can do and how many times you can do it. Keep posting the vids Dominik, I can seriously see you doing big things in the future and you getting some amazing opportunities.
I was injured by a roadside bomb back in 06’ and have had quite a lot of surgeries since then, I’m fused in 3 areas if my back. I all but gave up on exercise along time ago, but watching this makes me want to try it out again. Obviously not to this extent. But I can try very beginner stuff again and see where I go from there. Thanks for motivation.
Pendulum9000 thanks 🙏 Appreciate it. Yeah I’m gonna start with very basic stuff like pushups and whatnot. I’m not too limber so prolly a good bit of stretching would help a bit as well. My pelvis is all rebuilt as well so I’m super tight through hip abductors. Peace.

Im about five years late but this guy made a very helpful video and he is just a BEAST or a GOD at this point.
Am I the only one who were amazed by all of this?
I am 15 years old and I have trained in a gym for 6 months now. I was super skinny, but started eating a lot more, and a lot healthier.

***** Ey for sure! Thanks for the advice. I will keep spreading love for sure.
Clicked video for the calisthenics, stayed for the calisthenics but also for the very cute cat.
Not only you have the best video , the music in your videos are fire !!!!

Jeez I never thought about a lot of these exercises! Calisthenics is hands down the best way to train in my opinion. I'm being completely bias here but I don't care.

ShiverStewed thanks
This geezer is a beast. True strength, true dedication and awesome technique. By far the most impressive video on the subject I’ve seen. Respect mate.
Loving your videos Domink, geat work man!
Do you got any suggestions for cleaning muscle ups?
Also your cat is damm funny :D
***** I m doing those as well, finding the benefits of em fast :D but there´s problem I didn´t figure out yet on my own and that is bending in my waist as am about to transmit to dip possition, not the way to use a kip I suppose, my legs just kind a ,,shoot,, forward..
But thanks anyway I ll add more of those in my workouts cheers from Slovakia!
Quov Tsin i guess using 4 fingers could help! (8 if you have 2 hands of course).because when you go up high, you can transition your thumb to the upper side of the bar. btw i think the 4 fingers youll use more your biceps, i always get confused.
Unesp Ebb You mean like, to keep my thumb over the bar not under(I keep it under the bar)? not sure if I follow correclty
Yep. If you keep it under the bar it should be easier to force your palm over the bar, entirely. The transition you know? Somebody could correct if Im wrong but I think its logical except for the muscles used. Still it would be such a good muscle up in terms of strength, no matter which muscle-force youre using since youre getting over the bar. I will search a video for you
Men..im mexican, and i can say that you are the best teacher that i see in my life
12:39 best part hahahahaha
Working out in a beautiful garden is far far better than any sweaty expensive gym. Feeds the soul while working the body. Great video. Way above my standard but something to aim for.
love the kitty. so funny!
I often watch your videos to stay inspired.
Will you also make a "Part 4: LEGS"? It will be very much appreciated :)
+Mees Broersen I personally dont bother with bodyweight legs cuz I get bored of repetitive movements (peoples' legs are generally just too strong to do just bodyweight) Personally, I would suggest just squats and deadlifts for legs, and that helps a lot with your back, core, and generally body stability as well.

Another good exercise is the Bulgarian Split Squats, it burns like hell but it's great
You are extremely powerful. Did you train with Goku?
Lots of admiration from looking at how much control you have over every movement!
Man that kitten is awesome! :D
This is one of the most helpful videos on Calisthenics i've ever seen, thank you so much!
12:47 with the kitten was my favorite part XD
I used run with 6 lbs on each leg. Lifted weights. Same body exercises that you do. Ride a bike 3 seasons in every year. In 62yrs old now. I do it all now, except body weights.
Dafuq dude! The punches at 1:02 fukin solid. How can you hit that hard? Did you train boxing too?
***** Is there any phsical activity that you are bad at? :)))
***** lol
i also thought that the punches were awesome. damn, i want to start boxing myself too. maybe this was my last push to finally do it
Any well trained fighter can hit that way, plz dont hit me :) lol
Can Ilhan looks like he could work on squatting and deadlifting more

Do you have a playlist for the songs in this video? Especially the first one. You've got good taste in music!
I'm just getting into calisthenics, and I'm awed by some of the advanced movements. Those one-armed leg lifts are amazing!
this video is gold
The parts where you showed 'what not to do or how not to do' with the big red X made me laugh so hard. Coz that is exactly what I see many people do and it is very funny! 😁
yeah, but don't you dare try to correct them.
Shit, I've fallen in love. I really enjoy hanging myself or being upside down xD These are, definitely, exercises i will add to my abs routine! Fun to sweat to this! Thanks!

You're an inspiration man!

***** ha, y hollow out my bowdy? Ansa wit science peas.
you dont land with straight legs, you land then straighten your legs
hollow body allows you to engage your lats and chest
Ok thanks! I have a hard time with that conceptually! Every other primary lift I do I avoid that posture like the plague and I wanted to know if it was a nuance of it's artistic origin or actually functional!
***** My gymnast friends tell me the same tale every time we monkey around (and yes they mention the toes to me with it).

+Dominik SKY so you do a back lever as a core exercise ?
1.Best workout room/home gym set up I've ever seen.
2.Great content, one of the better calisthenic videos I've seen.
3.Cat. Makes the video 1000% better.
4. My only gripe, I had to mute the video from 5:30 to 9:30. That music was ass. I feel bad because I'm sure a lot of hard work went in to it and the man posting this video obviously likes it but... it's no good. Couldn't do it.

So, I'm curious as to what I should specifically focus on. I workout every single day for an hour straight and I never lose motivation to keep pushing forward. If anyone can reply to me, that would be great!
What's your goal?
sebsterkid77 I've yet to set one, but I'd really like to be able to perform most advanced calisthenic moves, such as muscle ups, flag, planche and lever mainly.
***** check out the bodyweight generals on 4chan/asp if you ask there they can help you out with everything. Also the most comprehensive guide by far to bodyweight stuff is the gst series by coach sommer.
***** Pick an exercise you want to achieve (for example front lever). Tomorrow after your workout do some front lever progressions to see where you are at, also barstarzz have a great video on this topic. Then you will see which part of your body in achieving front lever is the "weakest" then you focus on it and continue to do so couple times a week, giving your body enough rest. And every week you should see progress, it might not get you there in a month ( maybe it will ! ) but you will be closer to achieving front lever then you were one month before.
BiMiHi Thanks for the info! Although, I'd like to work on everything at once. Would I just simply try out all the things I want to do, and start progressions on them at once? Possibly split them up into different exercises different days? Thanks.
This is another awesome video. Just when I think I might be able to do some of these exercises, you step it up ten more times and then I am in just awe. You are a beast.
Aww the cat 😍
I have watched your videos atleast 1000 times! These tutorials are awesome and much respect for you Dominik! Bought gymnastic rings two days ago and man i can tell its tough! Dips are so hard on those! I will keep practising and some day i will be on your level!
TRACKLIST PLEASE in comments. Thank you :3

Be careful not to crush your kitten dude, he comes really close sometimes when you jump.
That's called natural selection.

i have to say im pretty impressed. compared to all the "body builders" eternally ongoing explanation videos, ur presentations is by far the most compact, interessting and effectiv. without the use of extended self presentation with words, ur showing how to exercise the right way. plus ur devotion and simplicity is inspirational, cause i do think that pure bodybuilding is kinda pathetic.
great stuff, great body, cute cat. be well and hf.
Hey dominik, when are you going to do the part 4: legs :v?
Thanks dom. I know this will be useful for everyone
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!! I cant do weight for 1-2 months and this will help me a whole lot!!!!

Nice! I need to add dragon flags and back levers. Also need to work on controlling my leg raises. Thanks for this! Beast!
Can you name the song, please?
Been watching your vids for a long time now, can't get enough!!! Keeps me motivated. Like that you don't take yourself too seriously, not sure if it's just me but always find something funny in them. Been doing calisthenics for just over a year now (so still a beginner) and am totally in love with it, never wanted to be massive, just toned to look like I look after myself, but in the past year I've never felt better or looked as healthy, used to weight train ( not massive weights) go to the gym, but have totally left that behind now, it wasn't nearly as much fun, still go boxing but that's it. I totally disagree with anyone that says this type of training doesn't build muscle, you can do it anywhwere and if things start to get easy you can add some free weights or switch up the exercisers. Like this guy says keep keeping on, stick with it and you'll progress and before you know it you won't recognise yourself or believe what you can do and how many times you can do it. Keep posting the vids Dominik, I can seriously see you doing big things in the future and you getting some amazing opportunities.
Great video bro, i would like to know the soundtrack 👍💪
The names of the songs are written at the end of the video. =)
I was injured by a roadside bomb back in 06’ and have had quite a lot of surgeries since then, I’m fused in 3 areas if my back.
I all but gave up on exercise along time ago, but watching this makes me want to try it out again. Obviously not to this extent. But I can try very beginner stuff again and see where I go from there.
Thanks for motivation.
Hope you get out there and try! Thanks for your service!!!
Pendulum9000 thanks 🙏
Appreciate it. Yeah I’m gonna start with very basic stuff like pushups and whatnot.
I’m not too limber so prolly a good bit of stretching would help a bit as well. My pelvis is all rebuilt as well so I’m super tight through hip abductors.
Peace.
dude got skillz, I can't see how you can not like the video, unless you are a hater. 💪💪💪💪
One of the best Abs videos I seen Awesome
