Good luck Tony! Consistency is key. Show up! Even if you feel tired and don't want to, show up and do what you can! Already after a short while, you'll notice the compound effect of all the small changes you made, every time you showed up and did your thing! You can!

A great vid, probably need to go through it several times. I tried moving to bodyweight training a few years ago, but keep hitting snags because of all the imbalances Ive accrued over the years, which I cant seem to shake. You work with a lot of clients over 40 so Im sure you get it. Would be interested to know how that ceiling bars is connected. On the zoom-in it seems makeshift: 90 degree screw fit joints and bar, does the job and saves a few quid. Would be interested to know: how its secured to the joists, the sizes and ratings of the bits and bobs. Cheers

Yes, also try an active hang (shoulders back and down), that can create more space and often allows longer holds without pain

@alwayscuriousalwayslearnin Ай бұрын

The push-up positions are hard to do close to the floor if you have a fat tummy because the tummy is touching the floor lol I think most of these are a little advanced for people just starting ouyt also most people dont have bars to hang from in their homes plus if you are like me over 60+ yrs old and 6'2" it's a little hard not to touch the standard ceiling. that said I will use some of what is mentioned in here as a warm up for Chi Gong but most of the other parts I can't do not because I don't have the strength or flexibility but because on my place I live in is very small just one room and like i said being 6'2" over 240 Lbs it is a little difficult to move around in such a tiny place lol

@PaulTwyman Ай бұрын

Yes everyone will need to find their progressions that fit their current level and training space or home. Elevating hands on a table, kitchen top or back of the sofa works well for the Push up movements and replace the hanging with Thoracic foam rolling if you don't have anywhere to hang, the local playground is great for hanging when you can

@PaulTwyman 3 ай бұрын

Thank you! Glad you liked the video. I’d recommend you first focus on Push Ups, Rows, Squats and Hangs. Start with easier progressions like incline push ups. Then each week make them slightly harder, the body will then condition overtime to the increased intensity. Hope that helps
