Thank you Charles, that is really lovely of you to say that. Feels good that you appreciate it. And yes, it’s not just for the younger generation, we need to keep going too, but with care. Plenty more videos in the pipeline!

Thanks Chris, appreciate that. Still baffles me.

Grant that’s great, at your age. Fantastic. Good luck with it, and thanks for watching the video.

I’m probably the most surprised! I’m just doing my thing, and enjoying sharing my workouts and ideas. Never expected such a huge response. Anyway, I’ll just keep doing my thing, and delighted that people are pleased and benefitting from it. Thanks for your comment.

I get so many good comments from a Brazil! Thank you so much.

When it comes to inspiring, your video on doing 40 muscle ups.. is such a great video!

Thank you.. insane indeed. It’s crazy!

You are welcome, and Happy New Year to you too.

One of the reasons I started my channel was to help keep me motivated and focussed. And thought I’d learn a new skill too, referring to making videos.

Thanks Dale. I’d swap it all to love in Australia in a warmer climate though. The weather here is awful. Rain, floods, and cold!

Appreciate your comment. No 6 packs here! Although I’m trying 😂. Just an average guy trying to get stronger as he gets older.

@@funwithcalisthenicsexpect to see the shirt off soon in that case😂! Enjoying the content thanks

Thank you, I will. Just uploaded another video for you!

I’m planning on making that my next video, as soon as we have a few days with out rain, so I can make it outside! So realistically, will be about a week.

@@funwithcalisthenics Thank you very much.

You are welcome.

Hello Brazil, lovely to hear from you! Thanks for watching and your comment. Take care friend.

Thank you very much!

I’m pleased to hear that. It’s good to get off the sofa and start moving more! ☺️. We all need that little prod from time to time, me included.

Thank you so much 😀

High reps, with no weights is my recommendation. High reps, means more like a cardio workout, so better for weight loss, although I can’t say where the weight will come off from. We are all different.

Thank you, strength and technique combined.. that’s the key. Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment.

Yeah still impressive though, I watched an 85 yr old deadlift 160kg I think if I remember, or there abouts . Its whats needed to change the conditioning of your past it 40 attitude

Totally agree!

Wow, you are doing well, not many 63 year olds can do what you do. My body weight is 82kg ish.. I used to be a keen marathon runner until 15 years ago, when I reduced it for various reasons, and now I have arthritis in my big toe, so no regular running, but I do it from time to time.

I’ve been very lucky, no problems with shoulders or elbows, other than a few aches for over use, fixed with a little rest. I’m sure with a little more consistency in your training and a few extra sets, you’ll slowly build your numbers! Good luck!

Robert, message received and understood. Take care friend.

Thank you.

Well spotted. When I was going for 30, I was going much faster and admittedly the reps weren’t as full as they could have been. In today’s video, I was taking it slowly, working on my form, with a seconds rest at the bottom. No reason other than I like to mix it up!

@@funwithcalisthenics Thanks, I have a similar approach. And as you may remember my rather critical comments on the choice of exercise outfit in your earlier videos, please allow me to compliment you on the big improvement in 2023. Well done 👌!

You’ll be pleased to hear, that you weren’t the only one to mention my dress code. My wife has too has had a few words with me. So your comment today has pleased her immensely. With my channel growing rather fast recently I’m going to try to be more presentable. 😂😊

​молодец👍

Maybe, but I wouldn’t recommend not warming up.

@@funwithcalisthenics can you do new video how to do correct warm up excercise for pull ups excercise

Interesting idea. I have a list of about ten videos I want to make, I could add that to the list.

My friend 🍌 banana anthony why you don't have muscle tell me why it is very unbelievably

Laughing..

You are too kind. Funny too. 😂. The resistance bands are a great way to get started. However, it’s likely that you’ll also need to learn to use the momentum of pulling up of your legs, which I’ll show in my next tutorial video, hopefully within the next week.

@@funwithcalisthenics I watched your videos from 3 years back and saw that you used resistance bands so I bought a pack of them about a month ago. You had to Kip then to help out with the pull ups but now you don’t Kip at all, which is pretty dang good in my book. You said in one of your videos to video-record yourself to measure your progress - and I’m doing that too lol.

Excellent. Yes in my earlier video, 3 years ago, I used to kip to get a pull-up. I guess this is normal when we start out, as we try anything just to get some lift. Looking back at that video, it makes me realise how far I have come. And now you are filming too. It feels weird to start with, but it really helps with analysing the good and bad bits. Excepted for you! My next video, I intend to make it all about how to kip.. and kipping yourself up and over that bar. But I need a few good weather days to film it, and it horrible outside at the moment, so may be a week away.
