Michael's Mobility & Handstand Workout - Training Vlog
what's up guys it's Michael Fair from
calisthenics family and welcome to
today's video
it is Tuesday today it's the second day
of the week and today I'm going to have
my instant workout my second workout of
my new program in which I'm gonna focus
on the planche and the handstand for at
least the next coming eight weeks so
that's what I'm going to show you today
in this video so stay tuned and enjoy
the video guys
[Music]
[Music]
you
[Music]
alright guys so welcome to the video and
like as I said I'm gonna film I'm like
document everything what I'm gonna do in
my new customized program for myself
first of all to motivate you guys to
inspire you to start with calisthenics
or with just training or butyrate
training in general but also to evaluate
myself because from my own experience I
know that if I'm gonna film myself every
single time a knife and I'm gonna make a
video or if look about it and I'm gonna
edit the videos then I'm actually kind
of giving feedback to myself and
evaluating myself at the same time and
that has always been the best times from
my calisthenics journey when I was
filming myself and also editing and
publishing the videos so that is also
why I really want to do this and I'm
just really excited to share this
journey with you guys so today it's a
handstand workout but before I'm gonna
dive into the workout as you can see I'm
standing here at the office right now so
this is where all the magic happens
all the editing work and all the like a
developing work on our programs and
we're all so busy with new things so let
me show you real quick my my yeah my
desktop my computer because here this is
where I'm creating my own customized
program at this moment let me just show
you the workouts that I'm planning for
today so here you see my sheet so you
can see the workout that I did yesterday
Blanche straight arm and today it's all
about
and sent work out and as you can see
today it's kind of a low intensity
workout compared to yesterday but I'm
gonna do some shoulder mobility hip
mobility core one arm hands and attempts
and their hands and training and here
you see the rest of the workout and so
this is basically the sheet where I
create where we create our custom
programs and here you can see all the
exercises that we have to create our
programs and once we have our exercises
picked out then we can create a
customized calisthenics program so as
you can see guys that is basically how
we always create our own programs also
programs for our clients and that we
have been doing for the last two to
three years so every like new period of
eight weeks we are creating a new
program for yourself with new program
goals together self-motivated and to
work up to new and harder goals of
course so yeah let's start this
handstand workout right now but before
I'm going to start with the workout I'm
gonna have a vegan pre workouts scoop
before I'm gonna start to give myself a
little bit more energy because it's
already quite late it's 5:00 p.m. and
I've been up since 6:00 in the morning
already so yeah that's what I'm gonna
get and yeah this one's really nice if
you want to try it check out the link in
the description for a 35% discount with
our own
goat and then I start this workout
alright guys so as you can see I'm
standing here downstairs in the upcoming
gym so let me give you a quick update on
the gym how it looks right now it's not
really a gym actually still in the
middle of the process of creating
building painting everything but it's
actually already looking a lot nicer
smoother and nicer and neater and in
this little area it's where I'm gonna
have my handset workout right now
because I need the wall today and
outside we don't have a good wall and
I'm using this plastic wall right here
so I can slide on the wall and you can
see this thing this piece of equipment
right here and we are about to create a
new video with this piece of equipment
because this one is a very special one
so stay tuned for that video so now
let's get into the workout
[Music]
alright guys so I just finished with the
warmup
five minutes of gym row and I'm using
the gym rope from PE field this one
right here I think a few videos ago we
did a jump rope workout so if you're
looking for a fat burning workout with a
jump rope definitely check out that
video and if you're interested in this
and like boots chimp ropes and then I
would definitely recommend to these I
put a link in the description for more
information about the product including
a discount so now I'm going to move
towards my warm up my shoulder work
let's go
[Music]
[Music]
alright guys so I just finished my
warmup
and now it's time for the first part of
the workout increasing my shoulder
mobility because I know for the
one-armed handstand and just getting
better in your regular headset shoulder
mobility is very very important and
before I created this new program for
herself
I've been doing some research about
shoulder mobility and also shoulder
flexibility and one thing that I was
knew for me was the big difference
between mobility and flexibility because
my ensure that flexibility is pretty new
so that means that I'm really flexible
in the muscles in the shoulders
but mobility is something different and
that is new for me and that is like the
amount of like movement that you have
without using like an external force so
for example if you're working on your
shoulder flexibility you can use the
wall for example to lean in the wall and
from there like open up your sure solar
like this and then you're working on
your shoulder flexibility with shoulder
mobility is the amount that you can move
your shoulders without the wall without
an external force so just like this
going up without arching my back so
that's what I'm gonna work on right now
because no one arm Hansons also in the
record and send that shoulder mobility
is very important so let's get into the
first exercise shoulder mobility on
[Music]
alright guys so that was the first
shoulder mobility exercise and one thing
that I'm trying to do is to keeping my
lower back in contact with the wall so I
can't arch my back so this has to be in
contact with the wall and from here
[Music]
raise your shoulders and try to touch
the floor
touch the wall with your hands well and
I still haven't you know been in contact
with the wall alright guys so that was
the first exercise I just did 3 sets of
10 repetitions and I'm gonna move on to
the second mobility exercise which is
that Y stretch on the wall so I'm gonna
stand in this position wait let me just
show it on the wall so you're gonna have
this wide extent on the wall I think
your lower back towards in contact with
the the wall and from here try to get
into a wide position while keeping your
elbows contact with the wall and also
your lower back and upper back
[Music]
[Applause]
all right so this one as you can see is
a lot harder and with this one I only do
three repetitions and put all my effort
in getting as high as possible while
having my elbows locked into the wall
all right two more sets and then I'm
gonna move on to the last Shogun where
the exercise of today oh all right so
that was the last set and as you can see
guys what I'm trying to do is every time
when I breathe out I'm going to put my
hands a little bit higher so it's like
and for me that works really well so
let's move on to the third mobility
exercise of this workout and that is on
the floor and this is going to be even a
harder exercise so let's get into this
one right now
alright guys so what I'm gonna do I'm
gonna lay it out like this put my hips
in the air and get posterior pelvic tilt
so squeezing your glutes together and
your hips forward and from here I'm
going to try to get my my shoulders in
the air as long as possible and this one
is really really hard with very fair use
my mark
[Applause]
[Music]
thirty seconds two more sets
all right so time for the last set and
what you can also do to make a little
bit more challenging is to make little
pulses which are arms so trying to go up
and down to increase your mobility even
more and of course you're also having
that static holds while doing the pulses
so it's like a win-win so let's try this
one this probably looks so simple guys
but this is definitely one of the
hardest exercise so right now I'm gonna
do some hip mobility and I'm just gonna
do some 10 to 15 minutes of mobility so
I'm not gonna like share every single
exercise that I'm gonna do I'm actually
not going to do like if you exercise but
I'm just gonna do like a little routine
a little sequence just with the flow
what comes up in my mind and that's what
I'm gonna work on see where I have some
tightness and after that I probably feel
ready to start with the handstand
one-arm handstand and the instant
practice of today so let's go
[Music]
[Applause]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Music]
alright guys so I just finished the
mobility routine that turned into a
complete full body mobility and
flexibility of 32 minutes and that's how
it always goes when I'm practicing yoga
stretching in the beginning I think like
hmm I don't really like doing this
because I'm pretty stiff and once I'm
actually doing it then I'm gonna do it
like for 10 minutes 20 minutes 30
minutes and I just can't stop and I
actually reached a new goal today with
my back bending I don't know if you guys
have seen it but I went all the way from
like yeah complete back bending with my
hands towards the floor behind my back
and from there going back up and that is
something you really feel in your core
for next time I'm gonna try to do more
repetitions of that so always try to
keep going forward and now guys I'm
going to start with the actual handstand
workout I think I'm completely warmed up
my shoulders are really warm
I'm feeling really open and I'm feeling
ready to start with the one-armed
handstand so let's
[Music]
alright guys so I did my very first few
holes of the one-arm handstand attempts
but I noticed that it's not really
working today I'm quite fatigued and
sword in my scapula from yesterday's
pledge workout so I might have to switch
my my workouts a little bit maybe the
handstand training in the morning and
then branch training in the afternoon
but anyways I'm just gonna continue with
the workout and I'm gonna practice the
exercises on the wall because I think I
still need to work more on the wall and
strengthening my scapula my shoulders
instead of practicing after wall so I
have three exercises today so let's get
into the first exercise and it is the
wall handstand taps so I'm gonna try to
tap my elbows or my shoulders to
strengthening the scapula and within a
straight arm handstand hold so let's go
[Music]
all right so those are the first two
sets of the hands and shoulder taps and
man these are very hard I can see that I
can move my hands a little bit closer to
the wall to get that nice straight
alignment so that's what I'm gonna try
in my last set
I did 20 repetitions of elbow taps
instead of shoulder taps because I
noticed that the shoulders are still a
little bit too hard so let's get the
third set in and then I'm gonna move on
to the next exercise
[Music]
[Music]
alright guys that was my handstand
workout I had to hurry up a little bit
so that's why I did the three exercise
in what sequence the wall had said
that's the wall one-arm handstand bolts
and also that well one-arm handstand
walks on the blocks and all those three
exercises were very difficult for me
that so this shows me that I still have
to work a lot on my scapular strength
and that I have to leave the one-arm
handstand the free one hand set for a
while and just practice on the wall
because guys when I started with gevis
enix I literally rushed through my
workouts and also I rushed through my
goal so I really wanted to get a swelled
bench with one arm and simple but um I
actually didn't have the basics so this
is what I'm trying to work on with this
program so this time I'm gonna do it
smart and not fast so that's it about
this workout guys I hope you liked this
video and that you get some inspiration
motivation from this workout if you got
some tips for me please let know in the
comments down below I would really like
to hear that and also guys if you want
me to create a video about a special
topic please let us know in the comments
and I'll catch you guys in the next
video tomorrow I'm going to do a new
workout my pledge bent arm workout so
I'm already looking forward to that but
I think it's going to be a pain in the
ass because my shoulders are already
tired so that's it's about this workout
guys in this video I get you guys in the
next one please like this video and
