BEST Calisthenics Warm Up Routine For Your Workout

This video explains how to do the ideal calisthenics warm up routine. You want to focus on blood flow, mobility and drills. Those are the 3 main components. The drills should center around the movement you’ll be focusing on in your workout, if there is a specific focus.
Example calisthenics warm up with this framework:
_______________________
BLOOD FLOW - 1 min:
- Jumping Jacks (60 sec)
MOBILITY - 4 min:
- Wrist circles (30 sec)
- Wrist extension stretch (30 sec)
- Cat/cow (10 reps)
- Shoulder circles (30 seconds, both directions)
- Arm swings (10 reps)
- Full squats w/calf raise (10 reps)
EXAMPLE DRILLS - 5 min:
- Pike to plank or “inch worm” (1 set)
- Pike jack knives on stability ball (1 set)
- Handstand wall walks (1 set)
*** Drills will vary based on your focus for today’s workout
*** You can skip drills if your workout is general; no specific focus
*** Example drills above would be for a handstand press workout, just for example
___________________
As you can see, the ideal warm up for calisthenics gets the heart rate up (blood flow), gets your joints moving (mobility), and then runs through 2-3 specific movements based on the focus of your upcoming workout (drills).
Don’t make the mistake of skipping the warm up. I mean, you CAN skip it - it’s obviously possible and you can still get results if you skip it - but trust me when I say that a properly warmed up body performs BEST. You also reduce the risk of injury because warmed muscles are more supple, so less likely to strain and more likely to use proper coordination in compound movements.
If you’d like to see this routine (and a LOT more) in a follow-along format, stay tuned for my upcoming mobile app! I’m planning to launch it later in 2020 :-)
I hope you learned something from the video. I try my best to explain WHY we do these things and not just show WHAT to do. I feel like there’s plenty of videos out there showing the “what” but leaving out the “why,” and that’s not very helpful to you. When you learn the science and reasoning behind exercise (and general health practices) you’re more likely to remember and follow through.

Do you recommend soy, rice or almond milk with it - or do you advise to stay away from any of those three? - I like to blend them...and I go crazy with the fresh berries; black, rasp, blue and straw - there can't be anything wrong with that, can there? I was wondering if you would recommend a daily food routine? When is the best time to eat veggies, or fruit or proteins etc... - before / after warmups or the exercise routines... Green juices, ginger, kale, spinach? etc..or straight-up juice; what's best to get the recovery my body needs, stamina or meal replacement? Do you eat fish? simple saute' in olive or coconut oil, or raw? etc...Got any favorites? thanks

    Tariq Ashraf if you're asking about rest times during the warm up, I recommend just going from one exercise to the next without rest. The only exception would be between your drills, if the drills you use are pretty challenging. But if you're asking about rest times during your actual working sets, 60-90 seconds is good depending on your goal. If your current focus is to build strength, you can rest upwards of 3+ minutes to maximize strength for each set. 60-90 seconds between sets is ideal for hypertrophy because it'll help you get a better pump and fit in more total volume.

    lekulino add in the mobility exercises after the blood flow before diving into the circuits. A year and a half is a long time to do any routine. Have you been using more challenging exercise progressions, increasing the total volume or utilizing any other forms of progressive overload? It's good to change things up so progress is more consistent.

    There is no such thing as best warm up. The kind of warm up best for you or the most beneficial for your training that you are about to start with greatly depends on what kind of training that is. Such statements are just rather neglecting a lot of factors that are a must to be taken into account for professionals( certified coaches) to minimize any possibilities for room to injuries. That is why no amateurs should give out such generalized advice especially with huge audience, it is just plain dangerous and irresponsible.
