183cm - 85kg | Calisthenics Transformation @vking_cimpoaca He came to me wanting to unlock advanced calisthenics skills like Handstand Push-Up, Front Lever, and Planche, as well as dramatically increase his strength in weighted calisthenics. After thoroughly analyzing his weaknesses, struggles, and current strength level, I realized we needed to take a step back. Many movements lacked proper technique and muscle engagement. So, I created a personalized training plan for him: ▪️4 structured workouts per week ▪️2 active recovery sessions emphasizing core strength and rotator cuff health ▪️Daily video analysis feedback: he filmed each exercise and sent it to me. Within 36 hours, I provided detailed video feedback on his form, allowing immediate corrections before the next session. ▪️Biweekly call where we analyze progress and plan the next two weeks. ▪️Private chat with me 24/7 📈His progress in just 3 months: ▫️Front Lever: From 10s Advanced Front Lever 👉🏻 10s Full Front Lever (clean form) ▫️Planche: From 5s Tuck Planche hold 👉🏻6 Tuck Planche Push-Ups, 20s Tuck Planche hold, and currently progressing to Advanced Tuck Planche. ▫️Handstand: From 10s hold 👉🏻 35s consistent hold ▫️Handstand Push-Ups: From 1 wall-assisted HSPU 👉🏻 2 Free-standing HSPU ▫️Muscle-Ups: From 5 poor-form reps 👉🏻 6 clean, controlled reps ▫️Weighted Dips: From 30kg × 10 reps 👉🏻 60kg × 10 reps ▫️Weighted Pull-Ups: From 25kg × 5 reps 👉🏻 35kg × 6 reps Want to achieve similar results, unlock new calisthenics skills, build incredible strength, and develop a strong, aesthetic physique in just 3 months?

Back lever, human flag, crow pose, bent-arm planche are USELESS. Go straight to planche and front lever. That’s what a lot of coaches say. Seriously? Then let’s tell a toddler to skip crawling and just run. Skip the planche and go straight to the maltese. Skip the push-up and go straight to the planche push-up. Not everyone who starts calisthenics is a gifted teenager. A lot of you are men in your 20s, 30s and 40s who have never trained before. Beginner skills: crow pose, L-sit, headstand Intermediate skills: back lever, bent-arm planche, human flag, dragon flag, handstand These build body control, mind-muscle connection, and the foundation for advanced skills. I’ve seen people start planche with no base and stay stuck at tuck planche for a WHOLE YEAR. The order: 1. Build strength 2. Master beginner skills 3. Build control and mind-muscle connection 4. Master intermediate skills 5. Then move to advanced skills You don’t run before you walk. You don’t become Einstein without learning basic math. “This skill comes for free” isn’t true for everyone. For some people, the planche takes years. Coaches who say these skills come for free: what’s your argument? Write it in the comments.

Planche is not a jump. It’s a press. Jump in and you land in a shape you never built. Press in and you build it every rep.

How many can you pass?

Part 6. He held 8 seconds in advanced tuck. Now we open to straddle. And here’s what I want you to notice: the method doesn’t change. Band. Time. Lighter band. Time. No band. Start small. Open more. That’s the same system I gave him for tuck planche in Part 2, for advanced tuck in Part 5, and now for straddle. The skill gets harder. The method stays identical. 1. Tuck open to straddle planche - with a band Choose a band you can hold for 3 seconds with good form. Build to 8 seconds. Move to a lighter band. Build to 8 seconds again. Then no band, start from 3 seconds and start attempting. 2. Straddle planche dynamic lean Understand the engagement. Understand the position. Understand where your body needs to be. 3 sets × 5 reps, with a 3-second hold at the lean position. 3. Keep pressing Tuck planche press. Tuck planche press to handstand. Your press is what carries every one of these positions. Don’t drop it because you’ve moved on. 3 sets × 2 reps Parts 1 through 5 are on my page. The lean, the tuck, the +1 second rule, the push-ups, the advanced tuck. Watch them in order.

2026 was supposed to be his year. In January: handstand push-up, planche, front lever. Then summer came. Trips. No gym. No time. Busy life. And training slowly stopped. Sound familiar? You don’t fail because you’re lazy. You fail because your plan doesn’t fit your real life. That’s why I build a plan around you. Your work. Your family. Your travel. Your schedule. So you can finally stick to it. There are still 100 days left in 2026. Enough time to come back stronger. Comment “COACH” and I’ll reach out to you with all the details.

Most people train the planche push-up like a normal push-up. Extend the arms. Go down. Extend again. But at the top the hips drop and the back opens. You pressed, but you left the planche. That rep built nothing. The planche push-up is not an arm movement. Your arms and your hips go up together. Push the floor away, keep the upper back round, lift the hips with the press. One clean rep beats ten fake ones.

Part 5. You got your 3 tuck planche push-ups. Now you’re ready for advanced tuck. 1. Advanced tuck planche, feet assisted Open. Close. Open. Close. Don’t chase a hold yet. Just understand the movement. 3 sets × 5 reps 2. Advanced tuck planche hold, the band progression Strong resistance band → 8 seconds. Then lighter band → 8 seconds. Then no band. And here’s the part most people get wrong: when the band comes off, don’t open all the way. Open only to the position where you can comfortably hold 3 seconds. Then open a little more. And a little more. And a little more. Final goal: 8 seconds in full advanced tuck. You’re not jumping into advanced tuck. You’re opening into it, degree by degree. That’s why it works. 3. Tuck planche press Keep building shoulder strength. This never stops mattering. Plus tuck planche press to handstand with a resistance band. 3 sets × 1-2 reps Rest 2:00 between sets. 2 sessions per week.

Part 4. If you’re fighting your advanced tuck planche every session, you probably moved too early. Most people hit 12 seconds in tuck planche and think they’re ready. They’re not. At 12 seconds you’re still fighting the position. You’re still fighting not to fall. That’s not a hold, that’s survival. And you can’t build a harder skill on top of survival. Rule 1: be comfortable at 15–20 seconds. Not maxing out. Comfortable. But here’s the part almost nobody does. I’ve tested this with students. When you go from tuck planche straight to advanced tuck planche, people get stuck. For months. Sometimes longer. When you focus on unlocking the tuck planche push-up first, you build more shoulder strength and that’s what carries you into advanced tuck. Your next goal: 3 tuck planche push-ups. The form: Get into position. Full protraction. Chest inside. All the way down. Push up. Pause 1 second at the top. Up and down. 4 sets × 3 reps Start with a lighter resistance band. Then move to an extra light band. Then no band at all. Rest 2 minutes between sets. 2 sessions per week. Missed the earlier parts? Part 1 is the base and the planche lean. Part 2 is the band work. Part 3 is how to add time to your hold. Watch them in order. Comment “BEAST” for 1:1 coaching with me.

What should I try next?

What do you choose?

Part 3. If your tuck planche is solid but the time never goes up, this is your problem. Most people train tuck planche the same way every session. Same holds. Same effort. Same result. A year later they’re still at 10 seconds. Here’s the fix. 1. Tuck planche hold 4 sets at 80% of your max hold. Next workout, add at least 1 second to your total volume. Push to get that first set one second longer. One second. That’s it. That’s the whole rule. 2. The press This is one of the most important pillars in the planche and most people skip it completely. Tuck L-sit press to tuck planche. Too difficult? Tuck planche press with feet assistance. 3 sets × 3-5 reps 3. Pseudo push-up with a 3-second hold at the lean 3 sets × 5-8 reps Rest 90-120s between sets. Missed the earlier parts? Part 1 is the base and the planche lean. Part 2 is band work for tuck planche. Watch them in order, this only works if you built the steps below it.

Calisthenics ART - AI can’t do this without a template!

Part 2. Your lean is 15 seconds? Here’s what’s next. Tuck planche with a band: Band you can hold 5s = 80% of max Hold 10s → lighter band Hold 10s on lightest → no band Dynamic planche lean, feet elevated. 3s pause. 3 sets * 5 reps Pseudo push-up. 3 sets 5-8 reps The progression works. But it has to be built around your level, your weak points, and your schedule. If you want that built for you, comment “PLAN” and I’ll reach out personally.

In 2020, when I started creating content on social media, a lot of people told me: “Planche is boring.” “Handstand push-ups are boring.” “Nobody is interested in that.” “It will never attract people.” I just kept doing what I love. And now we’re getting close to 1 MILLION. 🔥 Thank you to everyone who has supported my journey from the beginning and to everyone who joined along the way. I truly appreciate every one of you.💪🏼
