You all are extremely dedicated. I usually try to answer the first several comments I get, but I was making the thumbnail. By the time I finished, I was already way behind! Answering those messages now. Thank you so much for being your wonderful selves. I had a great time making this video. The past few weeks I've had energy but just haven't been inspired as much. I started cycling my coffee properly again and I'm back on the wagon. The metaphorical wagon. Maybe an actual wagon as well. They're handy. We'll see. I will be trying HARD to get the app content finished this week, so keep an eye out for it soon! If there's a small delay in content, that's why! Love you all!
That's what I felt just watching his push up video and this one. You're great. It will get better. Just keep breathing. 🥰 I wanted to say something nice. Everybody deserves to hear a cheerleader now and then. I'm getting better also. Lol, I'm floating along with my head above water. It's a slow ride right now. Have a great day. Sending hugs.
I really appreciate the fact that you don't just do crazy exercises like "It's easy! Just do it!" Go you for being able to understand and teach for body types that aren't yours, and for people with mobility issues that you don't have. That is some powerful empathy. You are a good and wise teacher.
If everyone is happy then we become restrained to one emotion which restricts our free will and degrades our purpose in life. It's a bit of a philosophical dilemma.
@@mrflip-flop3198 I love where your thinking is at man! While it is true that we would want everybody to be great people it would just become so normal we become numb to it.
Thank you for the ankle stretch info. That's where my problem lies. I can squat but only with raised heels. So ,yep, I was happy to see those additional stretch techniques.
Yep. My ankles haven't been flexible enough...ever? I didn't discover it until my late teens. Raised heels works, or holding a weight out in front of me to counterbalance. Edit: the calf raises did not work for me, at least not for the year or so I tried them. (I did this prior to watching Hampton's video.) Gradually lowering the height of my raised heel seemed to extend my range of motion a little bit? But eventually I decided that it just wasn't a priority.
I know this is a small chance that you'll see this but 2 years ago I went from 345lbs to 275lbs and even though I lost weight I still was always feeling stiff and tense. But your videos have not only helped me loosen my body but it also got rid of a lot of my daily pain with it. So I owe you the world man, I can't thank you enough
@@soviet_onion_4208 sorry for the late response, phone was being stupid. But im currently chilling around 270 but my maxes have absolutely rocketed up. Went from a 165 bench to 225 and my deadlift went from 205 to around 290. So I'm not slimming up as much but I certainly am getting stronger
This is good advice in general, not just for exercises like this but general rehab for injuries etc. If you can do variations that are assisted and/or with limited range of motion but are pain free, then you can use that a way to build up the strength and range of motion over time.
Hampton, ya rootin' tootin' houn' dog, I can already squat, but I loves ya just 'cause y'all are humble, funny, great at teaching, and just plain awesome!
I can’t do any squats, I’m too weak and heavy. But this is day one of trying supported squats / chair squats. I’ll comment back when I can do a full squat!
really like how you included easier variations for us people with mobility/muscle/neurologic problems. today 18/06/2023 I'm starting my training. as soon as I am able to do it I'll be back, just you wait
Did you get your deep squat? I started working on mine 2.5 weeks ago. I can already see such amazing progress. From barely reaching a 90 degree leg bend to dipping halfway below my knees. I think I will have it in another 3-4 weeks. Then I will work on holding it for longer and longer until it’s comfy. 💪
I had Total knee replacement in April, 2021...So after 12 weeks, twice a week, of excruciatingly painful Physical Therapy, I still can NOT bend my knee past 120 degrees, jack squat or get up off of floor easily so this video is particularly helpful and gives me some great ideas for full recovery. Taking it slow, but want to be fully functional. Thank You so much for the video!!
i dont know if you still have issues but "thekneesovertoesguy" would probably help you if you havent already found out about him. to my knowledge he had multiple knee surgeries and was told his leg would never regain full mobility. Now he can dunk and do crazy knee movements. hope this helps you
I agree about knees over toes guy. He has a book called Knee Ability Zero (in this case the "zero" means no equipment) which is a fairly cheap way to start off his main knee program. One thing that is nice about it is it has progressions for each exercise, similar to how this video is structured.
A quick tip on your camera. Once you have the focus set, turn off auto focus. This means that you will always stay in focus, even if you move a bit. Right now, sometimes your face goes blurry as the camera decides to focus on your background. Keep up the great work Hampton !
Wait, turn OFF auto focus? Wouldn't that keep me blurry? What setting should I have it on? I don't have anyone behind the camera or a remote, so I press record, wait for the camera to focus, then speak/move. And yeah I noticed sometimes it was blurry! I considered redoing those shots but I just rolled with it, haha. Thanks a lot for the advice man!
@@HybridCalisthenics Do it like this: 1. Get in position in front of the camera 2. Let autofocus get you in focus 3. Once the picture is clear/sharp, switch to manual focus. So long as you stand more or less in the same area, you will always be in focus and you camera will never try and focus on anything else. Try it with a small 1min clip and you'll see you're always in focus 🙌
I’ve been 300# my entire life. I’ve maintained 170 because of help from people like you. Thank you for making the world a better place. You make me smile, even when I don’t want to. You and Flexy are my favorite fitness team. You are a beautiful person and I appreciate you. Thank you-
All I have to say is: "Hampton, ya rootn' tootin' houn' dog I can finally deep squat". I am grateful for sharing your knowledge and have a wonderful day. Thank you for everything.
I’m 63 and just started doing these a few weeks ago and I’m up to 10 minutes in the morning. I have worked out most of my life, so I know that’s helped!

This might be the most helpful video on youtube. Ever. Thank you, Hampton. Not just for this video but for everything you do to help others. You can't imagine how much your videos mean to some people. I know, because I am one of those people. I was very fat (135 kgs) but now just fat (120 kgs). I had a very bad hunchback but now it's better thanks to your posture video. I also couldn't do a normal squat and now I almost can do a full deep squat without raising my heels. Before that, I mean before your videos, I was hopeless and suicidal. I tried to kill myself two times. Once with overdosing and once with hanging. But thanks to your videos I finally saw hope. Thanks to your videos and to your beautiful personality. Never change, Hampton. I hope you have a beautiful life.
Don't like to exercise but your positive energy just calms my anxiety down, and I might try exercising more now 😭 If I get more active all the credits goes to you 👍
All the credit would go to YOU, my friend, because you did the work. I'm really glad this can help with your anxiety, though. If you ever feel like exercising, I'll still be here!
'The Hamptons' is really just a place where there are lots and lots of Hampton's hanging out, being really nice and kind, greeting each other "Hello my brother Hampton!" "Why hello brother Hampton!" "And look over there it's our other brother Hampton!" "Say Hampton, would you be interested in doing some push ups with me?" "Why yes I would Hampton, what about our other brother, Hampton?" "Ahh thankyou for the invitation, however I must go check on my plants, and sing to them, incase they are lonely" This is why the Hamptons is so expensive to visit or stay at, it's so goddarn nice!!
I love that you break the exercises down to "build" up to an actual exercise! It makes it more actionable and sustainable! And, you do it with some humor mixed in. Def going to subscribe and try these out! :)
I am writing this comment while breathing heavily. And I glad to inform you Hampton that I completed 2 sets of deep squats. Hampton ya rootin' tootin' houn' dog, I can finally deep squat.
I slapped myself in the face so hard with a resistance band once. Was doing rows and it slipped out from under my feet. Right across the eyes, was seeing stars like a cartoon character lol.
Squats are difficult for me as my heel does not want to stay on the ground due to surgery. This is a brilliant video for helping me. Have a wonderful day everyone reading this
I’ve been doing similar squats I have knee and sciatica issues, been doing it religiously for 6 months one day went to lift a lawnmower into a car and automatically squatting with good mechanics lifting with my knees I WAS SHOCKED 😮 a year ago I never would have attempted that maneuver . I KEEP WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS TO CATCH SMALL DETAILS IM MISSING KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.
For anyone discouraged with their workouts... Just focus on working out as well as you can for a week. Then the following week just try to improve slightly from the previous week. Continue that trend week after week, and as long as you're slightly improving each week, you'll notice a massive difference after a year. It's all about small improvements that add up over a long period of time. Just don't quit.
That was my approach. I was highly motivated by this channel as he normalized starting veeeery low. I am on my push up journey and started with literally 1 wall push up. The next day I did to. The day after 3. When I started to get sore muscles I simply rested a day and then continued. Currently I'm at 3x20 inclined push ups from mid thigh hight. My goal is to doba regular push up by the end of the year, so plenty of time to get there. Kepp going slow, but steadily. This mind set was a game changer as it keeps motivating me, unlike all other approaches that just made me feel weak and discouraged.
That approach is exactly why this channel helps me. I don't feel shamed for starting with the 'easiest' exercises because just doing them at all is an achievement of will that should be recognised.
U a 1st person explains how to start any exercise variations for beginners to high level in deep i recommend everyone to take a look on your videos u won't regret it, cheers man
Hampton, ya rootin' tootin' houn' dog, I can finally deep squat No really, it took a year though. I started when i can't even lift myself up from my bed and now squats are my stress reliever... this and sissy squats. So yeah, THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Bro you make me feel so much better about how i work out.. i would and still am always embarrassed when working out... but seeing your tips it just relieves so much built up stress i used to have when it comes to my technique or posture.
Thank you SO much for showing how to do the Resisted Lying Squats. I've been sick for a long time and I've been slowly trying to get my strength back but right now I am just not strong enough yet for Jackknife Squats and I was at a loss how I could make the exercise simpler so I would someday be able to progress. You are truly the bestest! Say hi to the chickens for me. :D
Thank you so much for making this video! I've been dealing with gouty arthritis in my feet for years and never would have imagined I could squat again. Most videos about squats inly focus on form or breaking parallel, but your instruction on how to stretch the ankles and getting used to the squatting motion have helped tremendously. I've been incorporating the assisted squats and Jack knife squats into my daily routine and a month later I've finally done my first full body weight squat in over 5 years. Keep up the great work and good vibes!
After a decade of wearing heels from a very young age I couldn't do a proper squat to save my life. Thank you so much for these exercises and tips, they're a perfect addition to my mobility routine. Between you and yoga with Adrienne, I feel like I'm rebuilding my body. ❤️ Thank you!!!
Such a good video. I really like that you're a gentle and funny teacher while also encouraging a strong push with the amount of reps. I already do weighted squats but watched this to get pointers on form and variations with bodyweight. Keep at it man ! This is good stuff
This a wonderful video . At last I've found very clear instructions from the very beginner's stage (mine) right through to the full squat . Have not once in my life managed to do a squat . If I go straight down & try , I just fall backwards . Thank you so so much !👍🏻🙏 It's perfect ! Also love it bc no interfering music .
You got a million subscribers in 3 months you say and I'm seeing your now at 2.72M subscribers!!!! Congratulations there Hybrid. I so enjoyed your video here and I can't wait to say that "I have arrived." I'll keep you posted as this may take me a month or two. Cutting myself some slack as I just turned 65!
Your humour just gets me. Also, just really nice!! Hopefully this works for me. My muscles aren't the blocking point for me, it's my knees! Hopefully this helps!
Entertaining, funny, kind, and uplifting on top of being educational. Hampton, I am so happy I discovered your channel! Thank you for all of your amazing content and everything you do for us! 😊
You have Bob Ross Energy, thats very good. I wonder if this will help me because I have problems with ankle Mobility mostly. A little stiff and unflexible.
Hampton, thank you for the stretching tips at the end. I am currently trying to make my body more limber, as I have observed myself having a much more positive outlook in general, and I am sure your videos will bring me closer to that goal! So again, thank you!
I applaud your work as a Functional Medicine Chiropractor. Thank you on behalf general population who are in such need for functional resistive Mobility training especially after 50
Thanks for the great tips!! I've been doing body squats for a couple months now and they really help. Now, time to go a little deeper thanks the video!! :-) Really like your kindness in helping others learn.

The three people who disliked snapped themselves in the face... 💀
24 now lol
If the bands run off the bottom of your heels then you're liable to snap yourself in the nuts
@@cm01 oof I the felt pain reading that
I’ve been doing similar squats I have knee and sciatica issues, been doing it religiously for 6 months one day went to lift a lawnmower into a car
and automatically squatting with good mechanics lifting with my knees I WAS SHOCKED 😮 a year ago I never would have attempted that maneuver .
I KEEP WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS TO CATCH SMALL DETAILS IM MISSING KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.
This is the most positive man in the world. I'm in to weightlifting, but I still love watching his videos.
For anyone discouraged with their workouts... Just focus on working out as well as you can for a week. Then the following week just try to improve slightly from the previous week. Continue that trend week after week, and as long as you're slightly improving each week, you'll notice a massive difference after a year. It's all about small improvements that add up over a long period of time. Just don't quit.
Thank you for this encouraging message!!
That was my approach. I was highly motivated by this channel as he normalized starting veeeery low. I am on my push up journey and started with literally 1 wall push up. The next day I did to. The day after 3. When I started to get sore muscles I simply rested a day and then continued. Currently I'm at 3x20 inclined push ups from mid thigh hight.
My goal is to doba regular push up by the end of the year, so plenty of time to get there.
Kepp going slow, but steadily. This mind set was a game changer as it keeps motivating me, unlike all other approaches that just made me feel weak and discouraged.
That approach is exactly why this channel helps me. I don't feel shamed for starting with the 'easiest' exercises because just doing them at all is an achievement of will that should be recognised.
Hampton, just so you know, you really are the best rootin' tootin' houn' dog there ever was
Finally I have found someone who does not make complicated and long vids😁👍
Loved the added humor at the front end of the video. Probs not for every video. Wasn't expecting it and it made it all the more funny.
Dang brother, you really helped to work my feeble twigs into stable branches.
Im honestly not even interested in doing exercise, i just love this guy’s energy and positive vibe
me, sitting on my couch eating chips watching this: nice
U a 1st person explains how to start any exercise variations for beginners to high level in deep i recommend everyone to take a look on your videos u won't regret it, cheers man
He really is a humble and funny guy who teaches great exercising reps.
I want this dude to be my gym instructor srsly:>
Hampton, ya rootin' tootin' houn' dog,
I can finally deep squat.
THANK YOU ☯️
Hampton, ya rootin' tootin' houn' dog, I can finally deep squat
No really, it took a year though. I started when i can't even lift myself up from my bed and now squats are my stress reliever... this and sissy squats.
So yeah, THANK YOU SO MUCH!
You are a great motivation. Love your positivity!
Bro you make me feel so much better about how i work out.. i would and still am always embarrassed when working out... but seeing your tips it just relieves so much built up stress i used to have when it comes to my technique or posture.
Thank you Hampton, congratulations on 1 million subscribers!
Me who grew up using squat toilets in China: People need to learn how to deep squat?
Don't lose the mobility!
If you don't use it, you lose it.
Yup! Lol!
I once rented a squat toilet only apartment for a year. Had to learn it the hard way 🙃
@@damian_madmansnest Sounds like quite the experience😂
lol
Hampton, you absolute beautiful legend you helped me start my workout journey and I can now comfortably do deep squats
The ankle mobility... It feels like I'm going to tear my achilles and spend half a year recovering
Yeah it's rough for me too
Thank you SO much for showing how to do the Resisted Lying Squats. I've been sick for a long time and I've been slowly trying to get my strength back but right now I am just not strong enough yet for Jackknife Squats and I was at a loss how I could make the exercise simpler so I would someday be able to progress. You are truly the bestest! Say hi to the chickens for me. :D
I was told simping is bad.
You're making it difficult Hampton.
I feel so good when he says "my friend" or "my brother"
"The Hornets of Hades" lmao take my like
I am almost 70 years old and have been doing squats for almost 40 years. They are the key to good physical health
Discovering your channel was a blessing for me :'))
I have always struggled with my ankles coming up off of the ground when I squat. Thank you for taking the time to show ways to work on that.
Thank you so much for making this video! I've been dealing with gouty arthritis in my feet for years and never would have imagined I could squat again. Most videos about squats inly focus on form or breaking parallel, but your instruction on how to stretch the ankles and getting used to the squatting motion have helped tremendously. I've been incorporating the assisted squats and Jack knife squats into my daily routine and a month later I've finally done my first full body weight squat in over 5 years. Keep up the great work and good vibes!
After a decade of wearing heels from a very young age I couldn't do a proper squat to save my life. Thank you so much for these exercises and tips, they're a perfect addition to my mobility routine.
Between you and yoga with Adrienne, I feel like I'm rebuilding my body. ❤️ Thank you!!!
Such a good video. I really like that you're a gentle and funny teacher while also encouraging a strong push with the amount of reps. I already do weighted squats but watched this to get pointers on form and variations with bodyweight. Keep at it man ! This is good stuff
Hampton, ya rootin' tooton' houn' dog,
I can finally deep squat.
love ya man
This a wonderful video . At last I've found very clear instructions from the very beginner's stage (mine) right through to the full squat . Have not once in my life managed to do a squat . If I go straight down & try , I just fall backwards . Thank you so so much !👍🏻🙏 It's perfect ! Also love it bc no interfering music .
No, YOU are the beautiful person!! 😭💚💚💚💚💚 Thank you, my friend, I really hope you and everyone watching this are having a very nice day! 🖖
Hands down UA-cam's best UA-camr. Stumbled on his site and I'm hooked. Thanks Hampton for being such a good human. Have a beautiful day.
I love how his personality shows more and more
Hampton, you rootin' tootin' houn' dog. I can finally deep squat. Tutorial on how to do pistol squats next? :)
So you have chosen death?!
You got a million subscribers in 3 months you say and I'm seeing your now at 2.72M subscribers!!!! Congratulations
there Hybrid. I so enjoyed your video here and I can't wait to say that "I have arrived." I'll keep you posted as this may take me
a month or two. Cutting myself some slack as I just turned 65!
Your humour just gets me. Also, just really nice!! Hopefully this works for me. My muscles aren't the blocking point for me, it's my knees! Hopefully this helps!
Hey chicken, you're my new script writer
Chciken: run run run
Him: don't run away
Chicken: HE SAW ME?
Not sure how I'm just now finding you and I'm glad I have. Beaten my body up pretty hard in the military and other jobs.
Thank you.

Hampton, thank you for the stretching tips at the end.
I am currently trying to make my body more limber, as I have observed myself having a much more positive outlook in general, and I am sure your videos will bring me closer to that goal!
So again, thank you!
I applaud your work as a Functional Medicine Chiropractor. Thank you on behalf general population who are in such need for functional resistive Mobility training especially after 50
Thanks for the great tips!! I've been doing body squats for a couple months now and they really help. Now, time to go a little deeper thanks the video!! :-) Really like your kindness in helping others learn.
