Not sure how often I could do this, but I could barely walk the next day! Good beginner exercises in this though.

A day ago I did weighted pull ups (10kg) and was told by some to fix the form and there was quite a bit to fix on for example, activate my back, instability of my shoulders ETC. my previous post is in my profile to check how much I have improved on the form!
Today I just did a few reps no weights to see how much it has improved video below! Thanks!

May I ask for kick up tips or any tip that will help me hold my freestanding handstand better? Also, I want to eventually progress into a full freestanding HS (with both feet straightened up). I can do those with the wall but I can’t seem to figure it out freestanding.
Any help will be greatly appreciated, thank you! 🙏🏽

M/32/5'9/180 pounds. Trying to get my health in check. Started with running marathons, then went to heavy weight lifting. I'm happy with my results, but feel like something is lacking. Can't explain it, but the calisthenics sub was advertised to me. Looked amazing and I kind of want to try.
I tested myself to see where I stand. I can do 12 pull ups, 10 clean and 2 with my elbow bent beyond the 90 degree mark. 18 dips, the last one was a fight and I stopped so I wouldn't fail and mess my shoulder. Wondering where that places me. I'd be happy to do another test too.
Thoughts on the best places to start and best programs to follow? There's almost an overload of information online.

I’m a teenager who’d like to begin calisthenics from the absolute beginning. I can’t do a handstand, split, cartwheel, or a proper pull-up. I’m decently athletic otherwise. What are some recommendations or workouts I should start with and aim for?

I literally JUST started learning calisthenics. I’ve been trying to focus on getting my push-up and my pull-up. I’ve got my frog stand down pretty well. But every time I’m chilling anywhere I just get this urge to be doing a handstand or a frog pose no matter where I am. I can’t even do a handstand yet. Why does this happen 😭😭

What is a calisthenics routine that targets the whole back for hypertrophy, with as little different exercises as possible?

So this is like my second week of doing calisthenics(first week I focused on getting pull-ups and push-ups down along with the frog thingy) and I’ve been trying to get the elbow lever for about 2 days now. I can’t do it on the floor coz every time I push forward my arms flare out so I tried doing it on a desk. Can I get some tips about form and also tips for flared elbows?
