    Straight out of an oven. Her delivery is so damn consistent and accurate. I mean her focus, her distance, her voice, her pitch, her style, her exclamations and semi colon through her voice are so visible.
    It is surprising how she can even out distribution of informations by her words and transformation visibly, at this point it is hard for me to decide how she is pushing herself beyond what I am able to see. This video is almost double in length from her previously out out videos, with 2 different locations/spaces.
    At this point I watch her video multiple times as a case study. I see that she has strengthen her shoulders muscles from her last videos on youtube.

    From my experience I just recommend core exercises (especially legs raises on floor) and triceps exercises (mostly dips and triceps extensions) because core and triceps are 90% of work on lsit. Rest like shoulders or chest works a bit but it needs just beginner level of strength on those muscles for lsit.
    I personally was able to hold lsit without even learning it with progressions because I have good triceps and core strength. Any questions? -ask me and I'll try to help you 💪

    Hi Meli,
    Excellent L-Sit video showing great examples of progression.
    There are few calisthenics training channels on UA-cam that feature a female host going straight to the point and showing excellent bodyweight exercises with great technique and outlined clearly and concisely in a well produced video. Considerably better and also different than the majority of men that try to show the same.
    We have many videos of men teaching calisthenics movements and progressions from other popular channels but the female examples are few and far between. Learning from both male and female experts adds significantly to the base knowledge of anyone who practices calisthenics.
    I don't normally write comments but this specific video stood out in its execution. I want to encourage you to keep up these types of videos for other static holds and exercises, and the way you masterfully communicated these fundamentals in training; progression, technique, and assisted alternatives. If you keep this up, you will add significantly to the female body of calisthenics training as well as the female perspective of calisthenics, which I think has a large void on UA-cam.
    One last note, flexibility and range of motion is something that males suffer from significantly and many a time have I turned to female led training videos on UA-cam to help with mobility, yoga, flexibility, and training techniques. These were emphasized strongly in your video, your approach was on point, and is what most stood out to me.
    Best of luck in your UA-cam endeavour and training.
    A little about myself:
    - Training in calisthenics for 15+ years, began with learning from a local Toronto group, Body by Chosen, and learning from and watching HBK, Calisthenics Movement, Fitness FAQ, Zef.

    So I hope you'll forgive if my tone is a little harsh. I think this video has shown some really interesting takes on progressions... But I have to say... The music... The vibe... it's honestly all more than a little smug.
    What you're positing in the beginning is also pretty smug. There's a LOT to be said about using isolation to condition and fix muscle imbalance ALONG with this calisthenic work. Personally, I have dealt with a pretty bad shoulder imbalance, and cable machines have been critical to my recovery path. I am coming back to calisthenics a little older and wiser, so to speak- and hopefully as I am building a better balance in my strength, I won't need targeted conditioning as much. But this is definitely a situation of 'your mileage may vary'...
    And at the end of the day, all of the most important stuff you've put forward is just as well served without all this unnecessary baiting and algo fluffing nonsense. Just do some positive content. You've got good points here. Don't muddy it up.
