Finished Phase 1 of Calimove Advanced (Level 3/5)
Just finished Phase 1 (macrocycle) of the Calimove Advanced program — 3 sessions a week, 4 sets per exercise, short 1-minute breaks.
It felt like a much-needed reset: structured, low-friction reentry after months of high-intensity pull-up routines.
Surprising takeaways:
- Planche Lean — harder than expected, core and shoulder control put to the test.
- Easy Bridge Lean — surprisingly manageable.
- Jumping Lunge — absolutely destroyed my legs.
- Sitting Leg Raise — shocking lack of control over my own body 😅
No pull-ups in this phase — a deliberate pause. I’ll reflect more on that in Phase 2.
A great opening. Simple, clear, humbling.
