Here’s how I’ve learned to mix skill, strength, and hypertrophy work to keep seeing long term progress in everything I want to train.
What is your top curl exercise?

@jackd1337_vNatty or not?.
@streetfightsguild7480Cool to know you had an mma background. Curious what would be the best way to balance calisthenics and bjj?
@jonathanha4819So you're saying to train skills you should:
(1) Do the skill only while fresh, focusing on perfect motor pattern to "train the brain"
(2) Do simpler lifts to exhaustion, focusing on raw strength to "train the muscle"
That seems like a good approach to me, thanks for sharing.
I want to get a muscle up but I think I lack both the motor pattern and raw strength. I've been doing pullups, rows and cutting weight to work on the raw strength part, but I always thought I had to wait until I was strong enough to grind out an ugly rep to start working on the motor pattern part.
Listening to you, it became clear to me that I should start doing banded muscle ups to train the motor pattern separately. Maybe I'm strong enough to do one but I just have no coordination... Idk, I'm at 12 clean pullups on rings so I think I'm getting close to the strength requirement
5:03 this shit can't be right !
@razvanoni always dream of having a backyard liked this
@buichinhtadashi9080bro why are you bricked up
@LodenCAFI am not really good in english... is there someone to explain me ? Like a resume ?
@paolo.marchi.athleteHow old are you? I'm 35 and started adding weight to pull ups and I feel surprisingly good. I thought it would hurt my joints or give me tendonitis.
@zakputnam93Natural my arse…
@NK-rm7kcGreat Video
@tammo_OThank you algorithm! 😜
@TechMeleeWould you try learning to flare?
@MarshalMathers82whats ur cycle?
@BrobieeThis hit at a perfect time. I am debating on getting this setup in the backyard. Any feedback on what you requested to build back there or did you DIY it in the backyard? I can get the traditional gym stuff at a gym but would like something easy and less "gym" looking in the backyard like your setup. Any recs would be great!
@alexlokxu💉😑
@matthewstewart5008Super gay this Man 😂😂😂😂
@AndrewRedfield-t8x2fHow much more naive can the internet possibly make people? This is our grown men. Making videos posing for the camera 😂. What is actually happening to this world?
@josephspagnola9884Possible help for staying strength focussed: stop looking in the mirror too much.
@edrusiackas8209Have you always been a naturally leaner person? Like throughout childhood and teen years?
@herc5Damn i would love to have this trainigsetup in my garden.
And i would love to have a garden
I have a feeling you're like me and perhaps others out there in the community who do some weird unnatural bodily movements while walking down the hallway just because you're a calisthenics athlete and you can
@yusoppppHey do you coach people to get them to loo like you. Sign me up
@abull9579He is also super shredded
@abull9579He is built like a superhuman
@abull9579The results are exceptional.
@Jguy00Next time try zercher squats instead of back squats to make it more hybrid...👀
@ragumaannSuper informative and entertaining video. Would love more like this content, but I guess the history telling is something you can't keep doing in future vids 😂
Greek god physique btw
You have a wonderful body, totally natural muscles, real calisthenics shape. Not comparable to gym goers or bodybuilders.
@realityguy-n7qDream physique
@MD-lb1ozBrother! So glad to hear you made the right career choice. I was a high level amatuer boxer. It was either go to PTA school for physical therapy degree or fight professionally. I would rather have my brain and faculties for my family. Now a practicing PTA and boxing trainer. Bravo brother! Awesome channel!
@ryanskelton6311Loved your content btw are you looking for video editor?
@ZyshanIbrahim7:29 remind me of an action figure 😂 That’s a compliment btw
@ismaeltoro2649you look like a fkn gi joe bro physique is nuts.
@johnwishmeyer619Same here. I've been training and fighting martial arts since I was 6 years old. Today after almost 30 years I still try to manage my training around my injury's. Thx for the video.
@SenseiYairI find most of your videos highly theoretical, which is good, but it would be much more easy to understand and remember your tips if you gave some real examples (lets take building the back muscles- how you start your workout on a heavy lifting day, what you do on an easier day/ rest day, how you combine the skills training and strength training, reps, sets etc)
@Kevin-ie1mgWhat's your body fat percentage mate ? Great physique.
@matthewbrown7572You had me interested until you had to pull your pants down just a little at 3 second mark hahaha Jesus the vanity these days.
@MTheory333Why do you go down with your upper body while doing dips? Is it just a different variation and does it hit other muscles than dips where you more straight down?
@marcschwinn477Great video! I hope you can do the same for nutrition !
@nicolasg.8060Jake how much booty do you get since you’ve started calisthenics?
@PharaohIVMy fuckin dream physique🔥. Imma get there soon. Awesome video bro.
@OGTennysonGreat content mate this channel will.grow for sure ; you know how to deliver engaging content
@jijijisaDo you feel like your slower but closer to failure sets produce more hypertrophy and size? I have found I got smaller with the sets of triples far away from failure, even though the weights were quite high relative to my 1RM.
