Passive stretching will only get you so far, especially if you’re not naturally flexible.

It is much safer and reliable to use strength as a mechanism to build mobility.

This change in intention will allow you to build your way into new ranges… new movement options.

Heres the truth: most people post what they are proud of achieving!

But to achieve something implies there was a point you weren’t there and had to take consistent actions.

Reframe intimidation as a potential future you can work up to if you so choose to.

But to get there, you must first start.

Linear movement patterns will only get you so far.

Getting creative and expressing force in different angles gives your body more variety-more data and experience it can pull from.

By the time you go back to linear paths, your body will be much stronger and adaptable.

Steady state is boring to me

So I always gravitate towards activities that involve a level of skill aquisition

Keeps me engaged in the process with creative problem solving

Or maybe this is an elaborate explanation on my end to avoid running😭

Regardless, we getting gains

Most people stretch but never achieve movement freedom.

Building strength through length allows your body to ACTIVELY OWN that position instead of being there passively

Long Duration Holds rewire your nervous system to solidify the gains

Dont forget to Flow ;)

Traditional Gyms are Limiting your Movement Vocabulary

Making you reliant on things outside yourself

True Strength isn’t just pushing weight in a fixed pattern

There is adaptability and creativity involved

You dont need a fancy gym

You need intensity & better programming

Simplicity allows creativity to flourish

Simple Workout:

10 Weighted Push Ups with Extra Range of Motion

10 Over Shoulder Squats (5 each side)

7-10 Rounds

90-120sec of rest

Dont forget to Flow ;)

Rest Day isnt just about taking a break from the gym.

It’s also about pouring energy into yourself and the connections that matter to you.

Allowing your creative self to play and explore.

Intentionally allowing yourself to wind down

For years I avoided weights, thinking it had no place in calisthenics.

The truth? It was the missing piece.

Adding weights strategically helped isolate weak points, add volume, & made bodyweight skills easier to progress.

Dont get stuck thinking it’s either-or. USE BOTH #calisthenics

Much0_flow @much0flow.bsky.social · Feb 18

Most people struggle to unlock new calisthenics skills because they’re not focused in building their CAPACITY.

I spent months mastering the basics: Push Ups, Pull Ups, Dips.

It was easy for me to try and train new skills after.

Focus on strength first, then skills second.

Handstands are about control, awareness, and adaptability.

If you only practice one position, you miss out on a special key to balancing.

Play with different shapes and unlock your potential.

You’ll never look at movement the same.

Your spine isn’t meant to be stiff-its’s meant to move! The more you expose yourself to varied, dynamic movement, the more resilient and adaptable.

Train stiff, you’ll be stiff

Train fluid, you’ll unlock limitless movement potential

Mobility is built & earned, not gifted!

It’s likely you have neglected your own potential for movement.

What is not used, you lose. To gain back your right, you need to slowly expose and get strong at new ranges.

Like peeling layers of an onion, this takes time but it sticks

Calisthenics is unmatched in body transformation.

The amount of body attributes you have to get better at in order to perform these movements means body transformation beyond just muscle.

So much working underneath the surface, it’s the beat bang for buck in transformation.

3 Sets is for Beginners!

That being said, sticking to 3 is limiting you as you are not pushing the volume enough to induce massive adaptations in the body.

Start doing 4 and 5 sets and see the difference in your body and performance.

The perfect workout will not get you your dream body!!

You wont struggle with back pain!

This variation allows the lower spine to twist and build strength at the same time.

The perfect recipe for healthy low back especially if you rarely twist.

You will never struggle with Calisthenics after implementing these concepts.

It’s a sport that requires both understanding & patience with your body.

Once you nail down those, it’s a fun journey leveling up & seeing what your body is capable of.

You’re doing mobility training Wrong,

Passive stretching will make the quality of your tissues more pliable and elastic

But it doesn’t guarantee Strength & Control.

Mobility is your Ability to Move.

You need Strength for that

Dont forget to Flow ;)

You won’t struggle with Handstands after implementing this.

Teach your body new positions and different ways to express strength, balancing wont be as much of an issue after that.

Turning ordinary habits into Sacred Rituals multiplies the returns.

Instead of going through the motions of your routine, be fully present and complete every rep with as much intention.

This will increase the gains because your mind recognizes the effort you are putting in.

Romanticizing Routines changed my life.

It’s not about lighting candles or playing music, but turning ordinary habits into sacred rituals.

I used to do the bare minimum-barely getting out of bed.

But with this simple shift of treating my routines with love, they’ll love you back.
