I have been doing this routine for three months and the results are nothing short of amazing. Seriously. At one point, I thought I was not making any progress and I tried to touch the floor while standing with my legs straight. To my shock, I was able to put my hands flat on the floor without bending my knees. The next day, I purchased the Calimove mobility course. It’s much more involved, covering your full body movement. I only just began, so I can’t really report on the progress. Still, I HIGHLY recommend you start this 60 day routine. You will be proud of yourself.
mbotta mbotta i had significant limitations in my mobility due to several injuries that left me with a lot of scar tissue. My doctors, at the time, told me to expect a future marked with decreased mobility/flexibility and the need for frequent pain management. I chose to apply fitness principles instead. For approximately 10 years I tried a few notable mobility programs with some success. However, since I started CaliMove’s mobility program about seven months ago, I have been experiencing remarkable gains in mobility and functionality. These guys know what they are doing and their instruction is much more complete than the others I have tried. This being said, I am motivated with your post and believe you will experience life enchanting changes. Hope to read of your progress in the future. Persevere with optimism.
@@charactermatters9300 Good on you! 👍 I just finished week 6 of their mobility course. It's much more of a long-term thing than this routine, for sure. Nevertheless, I keep chugging along because I want to use my limbs for a long time to come :)
I had problems trying to do a full split. After trying this workout, I improved significantly, though not able to fully split. I've went down a considerable amount of distance compared to before.

@@zikrihail3685 I think the strech you feel would be what you are the least mobile in personally. I would just do them with perform form so you know what it is you lack in mobility.
As a sports student (movement science), I cannot stress enough how well rounded and thought out this routine is. Even the schedule is strongly supported by systematic reviews (6 days a week, at least 5 minutes per stretch, 10 marks the upper limit for deminished returns). Progressions and regressions for beginners to experts, common mistakes pointed out with easy to follow cues. Very much appreciated. And for free. Unbelievable
I'm on day 36, and I touched the floor with my fingertips for the first time in decades. I've tried so many things to improve my flexibility, and this routine is the only thing that has ever given me notable results. I'm forever thankful. Onto day 37...
@@DivineKnight I did it for a few more weeks, but my flexibility didn't improve past the point I mentioned in my comment. I've moved on to trying different things since then.
I can't thank you enough for sharing this. I've been suffering with lower back pain for almost a year and after just a few days I can already notice a major difference. Things like this can be life changing for those in pain every day.
At 44, I’m establishing a healthy relationship with my body, where I FINALLY have the incentive to take good care of myself, so I can look and feel good for a lifetime. Cali Movement and American Ninja Warrior are my greatest inspirations, and I’ve been regaining strength (have discovered natural atrophy occurs at around 40) and mobility, and developing stamina. For the first time in my life, I’m not rundown. I’ve had to rebuild and rehab my body from the effects of adrenal fatigue and other systemically-debilitating consequences of lifelong narcissistic abuse, but for those who are just starting your healing journey, know that you WILL get better. Just be patient and loving with yourself. I’m so thrilled with the wellness progress I’ve made in 2019...it’s been a fabulous year! 🥳🥰🎉 El Eggs and Sven, thank you for being an integral part of my wellness journey! You guys are da bombest! 😘 👏👏👏
Trakman - What’s AF? So, depending on where you are in your healing journey, my response would vary a bit to include more info on wherever you need more detail/emphasis. I didn’t know any of the terminology of narc abuse before, so if you’re in that boat, here are the narc abuse channels that I find helpful for education and healing: UA-cam * Angie Atkinson * Doctor Ramani * Inner Integration * Michele Lee Nieves Coaching * Narc Survivor * Permission To Exist (focus is mostly on workplace narcs) * Surviving Narcissism I had to start by asking myself “WHY??,” regarding ALL of the behavior I’ve encountered by narcs. As a logic- and evidence-oriented person, I was left puzzled by their reactions. I come from an all-narc family, so I’ve literally never had a time in my life where there weren’t narcs present in some aspect/capacity. What you’ll discover/confirm, if you’re not a narc yourself, is that the problem was ALWAYS them, all along. Because no one ever was there to back me up and witness that the narc was a sadistic psycho, I just lived every day confused about why these creatures act the way they do. If you don’t already know, everything they do revolves around securing NARCISSISTIC SUPPLY...just like a drug addict. And they won’t stop until they completely destroy you. If you kill yourself, they would consider that their greatest victory. The first thing you want to do is ground yourself in the TRUTH. Truth about yourself, your circumstances, etc. Once you understand and accept ACTUAL reality, you start undoing the gaslighting and all of the other lies that you were conditioned into believing about yourself. If you can, eliminate contact with the narc. It’s a lot harder to heal when you’re expending SO much energy just trying to ward off their negativity, merely to protect yourself from being affected by them. Most days, if you’re lucky, you’ll break even, but it usually feels like your energy bank account is being drained. If it’s not possible to avoid narcs, limit your interaction with them, and don’t replay their words and actions in loop in your head. Freeze/pause it, then imagine that it’s like a sheet of ice, and you strike and SHATTER it. Then, you repeat to yourself what you actually SHOULD believe, so you can reprogram yourself into believing the truth. As with physical exercises, you want to build MUSCLE MEMORY through repetition. If you’re codependent, you’re gonna have a more challenging journey, since you have to learn your own value first. Otherwise, it’s much easier to walk away, unless you’ve got finances, kids, or other responsibilities tied to the narc(s). Do you have any specific questions, or do you wanna just explore the resources I’ve shared above?
Trakman - If your diet isn’t already pretty healthy, you’ll wanna work on eating nourishing foods, and avoid things that cause inflammation (if you have any food intolerances/allergies) and fatigue you (caffeine, which leads to adrenal fatigue, and booze, which is a liver toxin). I’ve gotten into the habit of asking myself, “AM I SETTING MYSELF UP FOR SUCCESS?” Especially when you’re born into an abusive environment, self-sabotage is all you’ve ever known, since your made to feel like crap all the time, for no reason. Sometimes,we’re not ready to let go of certain habits, so just be honest with yourself and commit to working daily on your concrete goals. Baby steps, wherever you find yourself overwhelmed.
@@MoPoppins I just wanted to say that I hope that you are doing well and evolving in the right direction. I just stumbled on your post and I wanted to wish you a nice day. :)
I'm gonna do this for the next 60 days and keep a daily upload here. Starting out at November 24th. Remember me If I don't update some day. I Will also post a reply every day for anyone who want's to follow my progress (so you can only leave a reply here). Day 1: I had to use the video to learn the movements, I can't reach my ankles but I understood the moves, the Second flow was specially hard, I can't do the positions without looking. The third flow was super chill. Day 2: I had some back pain from yesterday, but after today's session It wen't away. I'm almost learning the side squat and Shaolin sit. Day 3: I didn't neded the video today (just watched It before doing for the sake of It). I can almost reach my toes while bending my spine, Once I reach It I'll try without bending. I can do the Shaolin sit for the left but not Very well on the right, don't know why though. Day 4: Didn't watched the video today. I can reach my ankles while bending the knee. The Shaolin sit is still a bit weird to do, but I'm learning. I am not reaching my toes by about 1 inch. I forgot to mention, but since day one I can do the easy bridge perfectly, and I believe I'm doing It with proper form Day 5: Reached my toes and am getting smoother moves in the Shaolin sit.

@Iridav I finished the First week, as for results: I got able to touch my toes, and all these exercises became easier, wich means I got more flexible (or stronger). You should give it a try.
(Disclaimer: This comment is a quite lengthy, it describes my progress with this routine across 2 months. Thank you for reading it, I hope it gives some insight for you 🙏🏼) I am writing this comment after the last session of this routine. A month ago, midway through the routine, I took a video of myself while exercising and although I was intending to post a comment about my progress at that time, I felt like I offended myself a little bit watching that video 😂, and decided not to post my progress until after the 60 days are finished. I worked on the deficiencies I noticed, and here we are 🤗: - First time 🤝🏼: = First Flow: ~ Deep Squat: I can go pretty deep, still not as deep as El Eggs. ~ Pike Reach: Super difficult! I have to bend my legs at all times, and I can't even reach it. ~ Cobra: Pretty easy, I don't need to put my knees on the floor. = Second Flow: ~ Archer: Totally awkward, very unstable movement. I don't know how joint allignement should be. ~ Shaolin Sit: Same as above, very irritating. = Third Flow: ~ Toe Reach: Somewhere mid tibia, a little bit close to my ankles that's my max. ~ Bridge: Quite doable, still hard to maintain stability, I don't know how to activate my glutes. - Midaway 🙄😱: = First Flow: ~ Deep Squat: I can go almost as deep as El Eggs, but apparently I have been rounding my spine, so I will be working on this again. ~ Pike Reach: I was never confident with it, still is very irritating and I can't even believe how El Eggs can do it with heels on the ground. Seeing myself doing it though gave me some confidence since I wasn't that bad actually. ~ Cobra: Close to mastery, I even learned to bring my shoulders down, it even became quite relaxing. = Second Flow: ~ Archer: The movement is doable, I can go deeper now. The thing is the joint alignment doesn't feel natural. I see that my knee is always in front of my chest and my elbow goes outside, I am a pretty tall and slender guy (190cm/~70kgs) so maybe the morphology dimensions make a difference here. ~ Shaolin Sit: I can go deep with my hips keeping both leg and arm close to it. I noticed though that I put my arm a bit too forward which makes me fall inwards, I should put my arm in line with my hip and not my bent foot. Also I should focus on full extending my other leg. = Third Flow: ~ Toe Reach: I can hold to my uncles easily, max is trying to reach my toes. I still do it with a rounded spine. ~ Bridge: I noticed that I don't retract my shoulder. Now the exercice is harder and I had to go back to an early progression. I still shake when doing it, and I put a lot of strain on my neck. ____ Here in the last month I could see a lot of improvement with each session. Once (after watching the video about toe touch, I tried to touch the floor while standing and I could put my palms next to it, felt awesome. I also have been following the Wrists routine by El Eggs and it helped me gain more stability with the workout ____ - Final ✨: = First Flow: ~ Deep Squat: I can finally go almost finally deep as El Eggs. The exercice is very stable. I noticed though that I might have buttwink (I learned this from a comment in here) So I should probably work on it in future sessions. ~ Pike Reach: My shoulder mobility is rocking now!!! 🙌🏼 I can do almost flat feet straight knees reach. Feels awesome for real! ~ Cobra: My favourite part 😂 Very relaxing, as you feel the joints coming together. = Second Flow: ~ Archer: The movement is very swift, I can go deeper now. I worked out all my deficiencies, I will work more on keeping my spine straight and less horizontal. The shift between positions is sublime though, I feel El Eggs-ish vibes😂. ~ Shaolin Sit: Same as above, I love this one too. = Third Flow: ~ Toe Reach: I can hold to my toes, that's my max and I get a bit shaky but I can do it for 5 seconds. I still do it with a round spine. ~ Bridge: I worked on it all and now In can do it like El Eggs, full legs extension, I have control over my glutes (they feel like biceps now 😂 I never knew how strong can those muscles be 🤣). Retracted shoulder, full stability. The only thing that got to me is seeing that I still stretch my neck forward although I keep looking up. I will pay attention to this in future sessions. Remarks!__ As I mentioned I was always pretty slender and bony. Now I can lie on the cool tiles floor and I feel my muscles like cushions that I can relax on. I never felt this, it was always pain and strain on my back, side, and hip bones. I also became pretty nimble. When carrying groceries I don't lean to one side anymore. Mobility is golden for real. Acknowledgment & future plan__ First, danke El Eggs, wirklich dankeschön Bruder. Providing this routine for free with this quality is a treasure. I will definitely get the mobility plan once I can afford it. Everyone who tried in the comments have highly recommended it, henceforth I do too for anyone who is questioning it. I will continue doing this workout as a warm up before other sessions, meanwhile I think I will move to a another full calisthenics routine from the channel. I also will continue the wrist routine and the morning routine. I found this channel long time ago when I wanted to fix my push up, and I got back to it when I wanted to fix my plank, and then I got hooked, and you guys, El Eggs and Sven und dein Team allgemein, sind ein Schätz! (ich lerne immer noch Deutsch, Entschuldigung 😂) Thank you if you read it so far! Go live up to who you are meant to be ✨ Peace.
As a rather inflexible almost 60 year old I found these exercises very challenging, although I persevered for weeks flow 1 and 2 were particularly difficult due to my lack of strength in my arms, shoulders and thighs. I stopped doing them for a few months to do strength training. I have since revisited the exercises after 3 months of weight training and I have found that these flows are no longer limited by my strength, but my lack of flexibility. Now I can try them without collapsing in a heap I am seeing improvements promised.
Calimove always on point. When I started training, I never really focus on flexibility exercises. Fortunately the fist video I watched on this channel was about flexibility and now I can do countless calisthenics exercises with ease
Flexibility exercises are something I underestimated and skipped out on doing when I started Calisthenics. Managed to finally be able to do pull ups, but I'm having trouble with L-sits, because of tight hamstrings. Don't skip out on improving your flexibility, folks!
Still you can do the only 5 minutes workout with the easyer version of the deep squat shown in the video. after 60 days your deep squat will be much closer to the perfect deep squat. lol
Just found this channel from shredded sports science. I dunno what it is, but something about your voice just makes me want to listen to you. It's encouraging.
This channel is so underated, m following him for years now. Who else presents videos with so much detail on each move n muscle n so precise.. How a beginner, interim n pro would look doing same exercise is just so spot on..👍 Internet is full of muscle building stuff..in longer run mobility will help 👍
Being a chiropractor and martial artist, I really like the flow they created here and recommend this to others. I had several spinal traumas in my lifetime and its workouts like this that keep me moving. Great stuff guys!
Can touch my toes now! Took about 18 days for me, working this out 3 times a week The flexibility seems to increase naturally due to the choice of movements Excellent work as always Sven & El Eggs, Thanks!
Simply cannot find other videos better than yours with such details in explanation. Love the parts for common mistakes most which stress the importance of the form. Thank you very much !
I have been following this workout routine for the past three weeks and amazed with the progress. All the exercises have become easier now. My toe touch has improved quite a lot 😊
I have been able to touch my toes at different points in my life but never have I been able to do so with my legs completely locked out. Today, after only a week of doing these flows I was finally able to do so!! I'm amazed!! I'm excited to see what other progress I make and will definitely be looking into the full movement program after the 60 day mark!
It's good that you have shown this video again. You did a similar video before but I like how you remind us about the exercises! I wish you were based in the UK.I'd visit you every day! Great content!
These videos are by far the best around. Well explained and demonstrated especially for how not to do the moves which for me is very beneficial. Thanks Alex!
I'm only on day 2, so i havent noticed any results, but just stretching in these ways already feels so good, considering I never stretch, and if I did, it would be a basic quad or hamstring stretch for only a few seconds. Having the routine + flow is amazing for having motivation to do this.
I ended up doing this for 120 days since I kept seeing results. Essentially went from your easier variation demonstration to the more complicated one in that time. Never been able to touch my toes before and now I can go quite a lot further passed them, so thank you for the tips!
I am horribly unflexible so I tried many times with different exercises without results. With this flow I've seen some results (and my toes) after seven days. Feels like magic, so I enrolled in your mobility program. Hope ti will be as good. Cheers
Thank you CaliMovement for what these truly calisthenic exercises provide, and what the word calisthenics->καλλισθενική originally means... Right strength. Complete by every way. We are so grateful.
Wonderful program. Third day and starting to feel better with the routine. This also provides a wonderful 5 min break for me as I sit on my desk all day. It is amazing what these 5 mins can do. Thank you again!
I think the nice thing about mobility training is its also a very good way at getting ready to do exercises that you cant or might have trouble doing. For example, if you struggle with doing even one push up doing mobility training can seriously help you accomplish this and other exercises.
Great Scott! With the Deep Squat i thought my knees were being STABBED with a knife and quads were going to blow up, so i took it very slow. A week later and stabbing pain is mostly gone and legs can now somewhat handle Archer Squat. Thank you! Seriously considering the mobility program now.
@@woffe8094 so your saying you can’t reach a perfect looking body without roids?? Lmao get outta here you lazy ass , stop being so jealous and actually work hard like that guy
I can easily do the first flow, with a great deep squat, easy pike reach and perfect cobra due to practicing yoga for 4 months. However, the second flow seems way too hard for me, and I cannot go down nearly as far in the archer squat as I can in the deep. The sheer difference surprised me, and showed I still have a long way to go.
I look at Alex and I'm just in awe. He's in peak physical condition. I would love to be this strong and flexible. I just finished day 1 of this routine because I want to see what happens. I was surprised to find out that the easy bridge was by far the most difficult position for me.
Excellent and informative. Unlike many other fitness, you show clearly where muscles should be flexed for proper form (e.g. depressing the shoulder blades). Thank you.
Im 17 and after two days of this exercise i could already touch my toes im somewhat in shape at 6ft around 160 pounds but I've just started doing stretches feeling great
I'm 12 months after discectomy and bi lat decompression - recovery has been crap due to stress but I'm feeling more upto doing stuff. Gunna start on this - great instruction, subbed :)
I threw out my back doing the Pike stand reach (1:35) - the combination of the bend and twist was bad. Unfortunately, I tend to push myself too hard! I feel it's easy to overdo it -- I'm starting this program again, so I'll be much more careful this time around.
I was hoping I could do well but day 1 definitely exposes the parts of my body that are lacking in mobility. I will definitely work on this routine on rest days or a few hours before workouts.
Really great stuff, guys! Top notch! Flow 2 is rather challenging, so I got to improve on that! Thank you! Def. gonna implement it in my daily routine!
Day 3 into this. I’m 33 and did a lot of heavy lifting for a long time without stretching after. As I get older I realize how much more important this is than how much weight I can lift. I did sign up for the mobility program which I am starting on day 2 if that.
I am doing it for more than 60 days (although, some of the weeks it was on average 3 days a week). It is a nice quick mobility+stretching workout, good for the morning, especially when I don't have time to do a longer routine after waking up.
I have long legs and so tight hamstrings and I’m way too far from touching my toes so I’m gonna challenge my self and do my best to stick to this routine and will start from now , thank you
Hi Calimovement guys! I think I have a question/topic that you haven't covered yet! Gear, pads and the 'massage gun' What gear you can go on compromise with, which, ofcause, depends on what the gym offers - and your wallet, and you to put it in your backpack every day. Pads! Is it for heavy lifting or not? for many reps or not? Weak knees, wrists, and elbows...? Do you need to pack your whole arms in pads to do a regular workout? And Finally I have seen plenty of ads for a fancy new 'massage gun' - as I like to call it. Is it good, is it worth it & should/could it replace foam rolling?
My biggest challenge is the Archer Squat + Shaolin Sit. I have trouble with balance when squating on 1 leg while keeping the other leg straight. I do this 5-6 times a week, twice a day. I actually sweat a bit.
Danke für diese genialen Flows 🙌. Heute Abend ausprobiert und ich kam viel schneller in meine Dehnung und Beweglichkeit. Ich ziehe es jetzt 60Tage durch und mache vorher immer die CAR'S. Danke🙏♥️
I have been doing this routine for three months and the results are nothing short of amazing. Seriously.
At one point, I thought I was not making any progress and I tried to touch the floor while standing with my legs straight. To my shock, I was able to put my hands flat on the floor without bending my knees.
The next day, I purchased the Calimove mobility course. It’s much more involved, covering your full body movement. I only just began, so I can’t really report on the progress. Still, I HIGHLY recommend you start this 60 day routine.
You will be proud of yourself.
How about you update how your mobility is after like 2 months?

Great 😀🔥
As a sports student (movement science), I cannot stress enough how well rounded and thought out this routine is. Even the schedule is strongly supported by systematic reviews (6 days a week, at least 5 minutes per stretch, 10 marks the upper limit for deminished returns). Progressions and regressions for beginners to experts, common mistakes pointed out with easy to follow cues.
Very much appreciated. And for free. Unbelievable

I really like this guy, I'm 64 and started doing these movements...early days but going good.
I'm on day 36, and I touched the floor with my fingertips for the first time in decades. I've tried so many things to improve my flexibility, and this routine is the only thing that has ever given me notable results. I'm forever thankful. Onto day 37...
How are you doing now ?
@@DivineKnight I did it for a few more weeks, but my flexibility didn't improve past the point I mentioned in my comment. I've moved on to trying different things since then.
@@Bostonlocs that’s nice I guess, I mean you are now able to do harder exercises right ?
I can't thank you enough for sharing this. I've been suffering with lower back pain for almost a year and after just a few days I can already notice a major difference. Things like this can be life changing for those in pain every day.
Best thing about this video is the way you go through the incorrect ones to correct. Such good control!

this guy should be in a museum
At 44, I’m establishing a healthy relationship with my body, where I FINALLY have the incentive to take good care of myself, so I can look and feel good for a lifetime.
Cali Movement and American Ninja Warrior are my greatest inspirations, and I’ve been regaining strength (have discovered natural atrophy occurs at around 40) and mobility, and developing stamina. For the first time in my life, I’m not rundown. I’ve had to rebuild and rehab my body from the effects of adrenal fatigue and other systemically-debilitating consequences of lifelong narcissistic abuse, but for those who are just starting your healing journey, know that you WILL get better. Just be patient and loving with yourself.
I’m so thrilled with the wellness progress I’ve made in 2019...it’s been a fabulous year! 🥳🥰🎉 El Eggs and Sven, thank you for being an integral part of my wellness journey! You guys are da bombest! 😘 👏👏👏
Mo Poppins i have narc abuse and AF, what did you do
Trakman - What’s AF?
So, depending on where you are in your healing journey, my response would vary a bit to include more info on wherever you need more detail/emphasis. I didn’t know any of the terminology of narc abuse before, so if you’re in that boat, here are the narc abuse channels that I find helpful for education and healing:
UA-cam
* Angie Atkinson
* Doctor Ramani
* Inner Integration
* Michele Lee Nieves Coaching
* Narc Survivor
* Permission To Exist (focus is mostly on workplace narcs)
* Surviving Narcissism
I had to start by asking myself “WHY??,” regarding ALL of the behavior I’ve encountered by narcs. As a logic- and evidence-oriented person, I was left puzzled by their reactions. I come from an all-narc family, so I’ve literally never had a time in my life where there weren’t narcs present in some aspect/capacity. What you’ll discover/confirm, if you’re not a narc yourself, is that the problem was ALWAYS them, all along. Because no one ever was there to back me up and witness that the narc was a sadistic psycho, I just lived every day confused about why these creatures act the way they do. If you don’t already know, everything they do revolves around securing NARCISSISTIC SUPPLY...just like a drug addict. And they won’t stop until they completely destroy you. If you kill yourself, they would consider that their greatest victory.
The first thing you want to do is ground yourself in the TRUTH. Truth about yourself, your circumstances, etc. Once you understand and accept ACTUAL reality, you start undoing the gaslighting and all of the other lies that you were conditioned into believing about yourself. If you can, eliminate contact with the narc. It’s a lot harder to heal when you’re expending SO much energy just trying to ward off their negativity, merely to protect yourself from being affected by them. Most days, if you’re lucky, you’ll break even, but it usually feels like your energy bank account is being drained. If it’s not possible to avoid narcs, limit your interaction with them, and don’t replay their words and actions in loop in your head. Freeze/pause it, then imagine that it’s like a sheet of ice, and you strike and SHATTER it. Then, you repeat to yourself what you actually SHOULD believe, so you can reprogram yourself into believing the truth. As with physical exercises, you want to build MUSCLE MEMORY through repetition. If you’re codependent, you’re gonna have a more challenging journey, since you have to learn your own value first. Otherwise, it’s much easier to walk away, unless you’ve got finances, kids, or other responsibilities tied to the narc(s).
Do you have any specific questions, or do you wanna just explore the resources I’ve shared above?
Trakman - If your diet isn’t already pretty healthy, you’ll wanna work on eating nourishing foods, and avoid things that cause inflammation (if you have any food intolerances/allergies) and fatigue you (caffeine, which leads to adrenal fatigue, and booze, which is a liver toxin).
I’ve gotten into the habit of asking myself, “AM I SETTING MYSELF UP FOR SUCCESS?” Especially when you’re born into an abusive environment, self-sabotage is all you’ve ever known, since your made to feel like crap all the time, for no reason.
Sometimes,we’re not ready to let go of certain habits, so just be honest with yourself and commit to working daily on your concrete goals. Baby steps, wherever you find yourself overwhelmed.
@@MoPoppins I just wanted to say that I hope that you are doing well and evolving in the right direction. I just stumbled on your post and I wanted to wish you a nice day. :)
@@iuliastratulat5503 Positive flow going on your way too legend. Wish you have a nice year :D
I strained my ankles watching those movements.
But I can't wait to start and rid myself of joint pain. Thanks so much as always guys
I absolutely love this. My body is tight as a steel wire and everyone of this movement hits something precisely and hard.
I'm gonna do this for the next 60 days and keep a daily upload here. Starting out at November 24th. Remember me If I don't update some day. I Will also post a reply every day for anyone who want's to follow my progress (so you can only leave a reply here).
Day 1: I had to use the video to learn the movements, I can't reach my ankles but I understood the moves, the Second flow was specially hard, I can't do the positions without looking. The third flow was super chill.
Day 2: I had some back pain from yesterday, but after today's session It wen't away. I'm almost learning the side squat and Shaolin sit.
Day 3: I didn't neded the video today (just watched It before doing for the sake of It). I can almost reach my toes while bending my spine, Once I reach It I'll try without bending. I can do the Shaolin sit for the left but not Very well on the right, don't know why though.
Day 4: Didn't watched the video today. I can reach my ankles while bending the knee. The Shaolin sit is still a bit weird to do, but I'm learning. I am not reaching my toes by about 1 inch. I forgot to mention, but since day one I can do the easy bridge perfectly, and I believe I'm doing It with proper form
Day 5: Reached my toes and am getting smoother moves in the Shaolin sit.
Day 6: Nothing much different, Just to say I did it
Day 7: rest.
Day 8: forgot to update yesterday but I did the workout

good luck man ! Gonna follow your progress and also give it a try
@Iridav I'll update, for sure
@Iridav I finished the First week, as for results: I got able to touch my toes, and all these exercises became easier, wich means I got more flexible (or stronger). You should give it a try.
Day 14
(Disclaimer: This comment is a quite lengthy, it describes my progress with this routine across 2 months. Thank you for reading it, I hope it gives some insight for you 🙏🏼)
I am writing this comment after the last session of this routine. A month ago, midway through the routine, I took a video of myself while exercising and although I was intending to post a comment about my progress at that time, I felt like I offended myself a little bit watching that video 😂, and decided not to post my progress until after the 60 days are finished. I worked on the deficiencies I noticed, and here we are 🤗:
- First time 🤝🏼:
= First Flow:
~ Deep Squat: I can go pretty deep, still not as deep as El Eggs.
~ Pike Reach: Super difficult! I have to bend my legs at all times, and I can't even reach it.
~ Cobra: Pretty easy, I don't need to put my knees on the floor.
= Second Flow:
~ Archer: Totally awkward, very unstable movement. I don't know how joint allignement should be.
~ Shaolin Sit: Same as above, very irritating.
= Third Flow:
~ Toe Reach: Somewhere mid tibia, a little bit close to my ankles that's my max.
~ Bridge: Quite doable, still hard to maintain stability, I don't know how to activate my glutes.
- Midaway 🙄😱:
= First Flow:
~ Deep Squat: I can go almost as deep as El Eggs, but apparently I have been rounding my spine, so I will be working on this again.
~ Pike Reach: I was never confident with it, still is very irritating and I can't even believe how El Eggs can do it with heels on the ground. Seeing myself doing it though gave me some confidence since I wasn't that bad actually.
~ Cobra: Close to mastery, I even learned to bring my shoulders down, it even became quite relaxing.
= Second Flow:
~ Archer: The movement is doable, I can go deeper now.
The thing is the joint alignment doesn't feel natural. I see that my knee is always in front of my chest and my elbow goes outside, I am a pretty tall and slender guy (190cm/~70kgs) so maybe the morphology dimensions make a difference here.
~ Shaolin Sit: I can go deep with my hips keeping both leg and arm close to it.
I noticed though that I put my arm a bit too forward which makes me fall inwards, I should put my arm in line with my hip and not my bent foot. Also I should focus on full extending my other leg.
= Third Flow:
~ Toe Reach: I can hold to my uncles easily, max is trying to reach my toes. I still do it with a rounded spine.
~ Bridge: I noticed that I don't retract my shoulder. Now the exercice is harder and I had to go back to an early progression. I still shake when doing it, and I put a lot of strain on my neck.
____ Here in the last month I could see a lot of improvement with each session. Once (after watching the video about toe touch, I tried to touch the floor while standing and I could put my palms next to it, felt awesome. I also have been following the Wrists routine by El Eggs and it helped me gain more stability with the workout ____
- Final ✨:
= First Flow:
~ Deep Squat: I can finally go almost finally deep as El Eggs. The exercice is very stable.
I noticed though that I might have buttwink (I learned this from a comment in here) So I should probably work on it in future sessions.
~ Pike Reach: My shoulder mobility is rocking now!!! 🙌🏼 I can do almost flat feet straight knees reach. Feels awesome for real!
~ Cobra: My favourite part 😂 Very relaxing, as you feel the joints coming together.
= Second Flow:
~ Archer: The movement is very swift, I can go deeper now.
I worked out all my deficiencies, I will work more on keeping my spine straight and less horizontal. The shift between positions is sublime though, I feel El Eggs-ish vibes😂.
~ Shaolin Sit: Same as above, I love this one too.
= Third Flow:
~ Toe Reach: I can hold to my toes, that's my max and I get a bit shaky but I can do it for 5 seconds. I still do it with a round spine.
~ Bridge: I worked on it all and now In can do it like El Eggs, full legs extension, I have control over my glutes (they feel like biceps now 😂 I never knew how strong can those muscles be 🤣). Retracted shoulder, full stability. The only thing that got to me is seeing that I still stretch my neck forward although I keep looking up. I will pay attention to this in future sessions.
Remarks!__
As I mentioned I was always pretty slender and bony. Now I can lie on the cool tiles floor and I feel my muscles like cushions that I can relax on. I never felt this, it was always pain and strain on my back, side, and hip bones. I also became pretty nimble. When carrying groceries I don't lean to one side anymore. Mobility is golden for real.
Acknowledgment & future plan__
First, danke El Eggs, wirklich dankeschön Bruder. Providing this routine for free with this quality is a treasure. I will definitely get the mobility plan once I can afford it. Everyone who tried in the comments have highly recommended it, henceforth I do too for anyone who is questioning it.
I will continue doing this workout as a warm up before other sessions, meanwhile I think I will move to a another full calisthenics routine from the channel. I also will continue the wrist routine and the morning routine.
I found this channel long time ago when I wanted to fix my push up, and I got back to it when I wanted to fix my plank, and then I got hooked, and you guys, El Eggs and Sven und dein Team allgemein, sind ein Schätz! (ich lerne immer noch Deutsch, Entschuldigung 😂)
Thank you if you read it so far! Go live up to who you are meant to be ✨ Peace.
Great comment. And your german was almost perfect^^ (it's called Schatz instead of Schätz, mein Schatz!).
Yes! The mobility program is super worth it and definitely prevents alot injury!
its impressive the unmatched content and quality this channel has
As a rather inflexible almost 60 year old I found these exercises very challenging, although I persevered for weeks flow 1 and 2 were particularly difficult due to my lack of strength in my arms, shoulders and thighs. I stopped doing them for a few months to do strength training.
I have since revisited the exercises after 3 months of weight training and I have found that these flows are no longer limited by my strength, but my lack of flexibility. Now I can try them without collapsing in a heap I am seeing improvements promised.
Calimove always on point. When I started training, I never really focus on flexibility exercises. Fortunately the fist video I watched on this channel was about flexibility and now I can do countless calisthenics exercises with ease
Flexibility exercises are something I underestimated and skipped out on doing when I started Calisthenics. Managed to finally be able to do pull ups, but I'm having trouble with L-sits, because of tight hamstrings. Don't skip out on improving your flexibility, folks!
even Jeff says so, flexibility is the foundation of everything
“First you start with the deep squat”
I need a half hour of warming up to perform a deep squat
lol
As a Slav, I can do a deep squat anytime, anyplace
@@BlindBosnian Maybe you need half an hour to get sober enough to get out of a deep squat
I'm in a deep squat
my toilet is broken
I know, I'm digging myself a hole!
Still you can do the only 5 minutes workout with the easyer version of the deep squat shown in the video. after 60 days your deep squat will be much closer to the perfect deep squat. lol
I just wanted to say HUGE THANK YOU! This routine healed my lower back after months of pain.
Just found this channel from shredded sports science. I dunno what it is, but something about your voice just makes me want to listen to you. It's encouraging.
This channel is so underated, m following him for years now.
Who else presents videos with so much detail on each move n muscle n so precise..
How a beginner, interim n pro would look doing same exercise is just so spot on..👍
Internet is full of muscle building stuff..in longer run mobility will help 👍
Being a chiropractor and martial artist, I really like the flow they created here and recommend this to others. I had several spinal traumas in my lifetime and its workouts like this that keep me moving. Great stuff guys!
Hey Patrick, should we do this pre-workout or post?
Can touch my toes now!
Took about 18 days for me, working this out 3 times a week
The flexibility seems to increase naturally due to the choice of movements
Excellent work as always Sven & El Eggs, Thanks!
i'll definitely try this for the morning now that the winter is coming and i am stiff as a board. thanks so much.
Simply cannot find other videos better than yours with such details in explanation. Love the parts for common mistakes most which stress the importance of the form. Thank you very much !
I have been following this workout routine for the past three weeks and amazed with the progress. All the exercises have become easier now. My toe touch has improved quite a lot 😊

I have been able to touch my toes at different points in my life but never have I been able to do so with my legs completely locked out. Today, after only a week of doing these flows I was finally able to do so!! I'm amazed!! I'm excited to see what other progress I make and will definitely be looking into the full movement program after the 60 day mark!
It's good that you have shown this video again. You did a similar video before but I like how you remind us about the exercises! I wish you were based in the UK.I'd visit you every day! Great content!
These videos are by far the best around. Well explained and demonstrated especially for how not to do the moves which for me is very beneficial. Thanks Alex!

I'm only on day 2, so i havent noticed any results, but just stretching in these ways already feels so good, considering I never stretch, and if I did, it would be a basic quad or hamstring stretch for only a few seconds. Having the routine + flow is amazing for having motivation to do this.
AFTER ONLY 3 DAYS I CAN ASSURE IT’S ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!!!
Soon the Complete Program in my Habits 🤩💪🏻
I ended up doing this for 120 days since I kept seeing results. Essentially went from your easier variation demonstration to the more complicated one in that time.
Never been able to touch my toes before and now I can go quite a lot further passed them, so thank you for the tips!
I’m just amazed at the amount of content your mobility program offers. Thank you for such a know amazing program
This is exactly what I need, after completing this "challenge" I will buy you programme. Thank you for video.
Wow is it going ?? I'm looking for a mobility exercise and I wanted to know how well this one works
I am horribly unflexible so I tried many times with different exercises without results. With this flow I've seen some results (and my toes) after seven days. Feels like magic, so I enrolled in your mobility program. Hope ti will be as good. Cheers
Thank you CaliMovement for what these truly calisthenic exercises provide, and what the word calisthenics->καλλισθενική originally means... Right strength. Complete by every way. We are so grateful.
Wonderful program. Third day and starting to feel better with the routine. This also provides a wonderful 5 min break for me as I sit on my desk all day. It is amazing what these 5 mins can do. Thank you again!
As a complete beginner, this and your other videos are really helpful!! Thanks!!
These guys are good. The best film work and instruction I've found.
I think the nice thing about mobility training is its also a very good way at getting ready to do exercises that you cant or might have trouble doing. For example, if you struggle with doing even one push up doing mobility training can seriously help you accomplish this and other exercises.
i have to give you money. :) your videos have helped me tremendously in just 2 months. i´ve even dropped 10kg during that time.
awesome work guys!
Amazing instructions... Tried it with a self video recording, and saw for myself how his tips helped me keep the postures right!
Great Scott!
With the Deep Squat i thought my knees were being STABBED with a knife and quads were going to blow up, so i took it very slow.
A week later and stabbing pain is mostly gone and legs can now somewhat handle Archer Squat. Thank you! Seriously considering the mobility program now.
This program is so amazing so detailed and so well done.
your body is so perfect that it can be used in an anatomy class
Tell that to Jeff Cavaliere.

I think this is definitely a great way to improve my body and it helps to reduce the tension from working out. So big up this thing.
I couldn't touch my toes when standing, I've done this for 2 weeks and now I can touch the floor. Thanks Calimove.
The best channel for fitness knowledge! 👍👍
Love your videos guys !!! Every video is top quality !!!
Hi CaliMove,
Now my head can nearly touch my knees. I have worked it for more than 60 days.
Thank you for the idea
Great stuff as always. Thank you so much. Do we need some kind of warmup beforehand?
I can easily do the first flow, with a great deep squat, easy pike reach and perfect cobra due to practicing yoga for 4 months. However, the second flow seems way too hard for me, and I cannot go down nearly as far in the archer squat as I can in the deep. The sheer difference surprised me, and showed I still have a long way to go.
I look at Alex and I'm just in awe. He's in peak physical condition. I would love to be this strong and flexible. I just finished day 1 of this routine because I want to see what happens. I was surprised to find out that the easy bridge was by far the most difficult position for me.
Excellent and informative. Unlike many other fitness, you show clearly where muscles should be flexed for proper form (e.g. depressing the shoulder blades). Thank you.
Im 17 and after two days of this exercise i could already touch my toes im somewhat in shape at 6ft around 160 pounds but I've just started doing stretches feeling great
Thanks for all the free and highly informative and useful videos!
Thank you Alex, your program looks awesome. Very clear, neat, easy to understand and shows progressions. Thank you so much
I'm a rugby player and hate stretching but this is perfect! It's short and you really feel like it's targeting almost everything you need stretched
i watch this while laying in bed
I started with the mobility flows. It increased my strength as well my freedom to do more complex exercise. Thank you!!
I'm 12 months after discectomy and bi lat decompression - recovery has been crap due to stress but I'm feeling more upto doing stuff. Gunna start on this - great instruction, subbed :)
Nao entendo pq tem gente q nao gosta!então que nao veja o canal!super bem explicado.excelente.
Got down my first day today. Will check back after 2 months.
Should I warm up before doing this routine? Great content
I'm definetely gonna do this routine. Thank you so much!
I threw out my back doing the Pike stand reach (1:35) - the combination of the bend and twist was bad. Unfortunately, I tend to push myself too hard! I feel it's easy to overdo it -- I'm starting this program again, so I'll be much more careful this time around.
1:20 I never thought that the human body can squat to that depth without buttwink
With enough practice you can too :)
Your mobility is impressive ;)
I was hoping I could do well but day 1 definitely exposes the parts of my body that are lacking in mobility. I will definitely work on this routine on rest days or a few hours before workouts.
Thank you for this small series. i’ m starting them m this morning
Really great stuff, guys! Top notch! Flow 2 is rather challenging, so I got to improve on that! Thank you! Def. gonna implement it in my daily routine!
Day 3 into this. I’m 33 and did a lot of heavy lifting for a long time without stretching after. As I get older I realize how much more important this is than how much weight I can lift. I did sign up for the mobility program which I am starting on day 2 if that.
How's it going?
I had to stop because I re Injured my shoulder bench pressing. so I can’t do some of the pressing movements. Once I get cleared from PT I will resume.
I am doing it for more than 60 days (although, some of the weeks it was on average 3 days a week). It is a nice quick mobility+stretching workout, good for the morning, especially when I don't have time to do a longer routine after waking up.
I feel streched just by watching this.
Great flow combination for I will practice these. Thanks guys.
Amazing videos. Thanks Alex.
Thank you for such great explanations. I love your videos!
I have long legs and so tight hamstrings and I’m way too far from touching my toes so I’m gonna challenge my self and do my best to stick to this routine and will start from now , thank you
Hi Calimovement guys!
I think I have a question/topic that you haven't covered yet!
Gear, pads and the 'massage gun'
What gear you can go on compromise with, which, ofcause, depends on what the gym offers - and your wallet, and you to put it in your backpack every day.
Pads! Is it for heavy lifting or not? for many reps or not? Weak knees, wrists, and elbows...?
Do you need to pack your whole arms in pads to do a regular workout?
And Finally
I have seen plenty of ads for a fancy new 'massage gun' - as I like to call it.
Is it good, is it worth it & should/could it replace foam rolling?
I am also thinking about a massage gun, so an opinion would be very welcome!
Thanks, Álex. Sure i'll try to improve my mobility and posture.
Thank you very much! I appreciate it a lot! Will tell you the results in 60 days! 💪
I'd be interested to see a video on calisthenic neck exercises.
Definitely I've recently had c6 nerve pain in the neck and couldn't sleep properly for 3 weeks.
My biggest challenge is the Archer Squat + Shaolin Sit. I have trouble with balance when squating on 1 leg while keeping the other leg straight. I do this 5-6 times a week, twice a day. I actually sweat a bit.
Helped me to fix my back pain, that used me up for 5 years!
Yeah just what I needed ! Short and effective, though I still do 2 other mobility regimens you’ve posted earlier on this channel
Danke für diese genialen Flows 🙌. Heute Abend ausprobiert und ich kam viel schneller in meine Dehnung und Beweglichkeit. Ich ziehe es jetzt 60Tage durch und mache vorher immer die CAR'S. Danke🙏♥️
This is the first day of me doing this since I'm in quarantine. Let's see how much this works for me. I hope to record an observation every week.
Sempre chiaro e preciso in tutto, gran lavoro
Awesome video, starting tomorrow morning, God knows I could use a bit of lower body mobility
