Before calisthenics, I was a middle-distance runner. Training with my team built my discipline early on, reaching its peak when I represented Yuen Long District in the Hong Kong Games. Standing on that stage humbled me and opened my eyes to a much bigger world. After university, without a running club, I pivoted to bodyweight training alongside my partner. Back then, our favorite date was working out at Yuen Long Park. No matter how hot it got, I stayed by his side, cheering

​It has been ten full years of coaching—filled with laughter and tears, hardship and joy. Looking back over this decade, I have no regrets, and I have never once thought of giving up. ​Recalling the inception of 肌本野DAILY GRIND, I had just graduated from university. Having no intention of entering mainstream schools to teach, I treated that year as my gap year. My daily routine back then was remarkably pure; I simply posted the same line on Facebook every single day: 2045, sa

Rethinking the Core Metrics of Calisthenics and Mobility Training ​In this article, I’d like to share my fitness journey and my thoughts on different training philosophies. ​When I first started lifting, my goals were simple: build muscle, lose fat, and look better. Back then, my progress metrics were basic: how fatigued I felt (RPE/RIR), how much weight I lifted (intensity), and how many repetitions I did (rep range). My early training revolved around mastering a few "Bi

Game of chess ​If physical training were a game of chess, on good day, you move 3 steps forward. On average day, you move 2 steps, and even on a bad day, pushing through might still get you half a step forward. As for rest, it might look like standing still in the moment, but looking at the bigger picture, it helps us to restore and get ready for a jump. Acknowledging the signals ​Some say resting allows us to go further; others say rest is just for rest itself. Either way, w

I started working on my Muscle Up in late 2025. The progress had been steady but after a month of travelling, I came back to zero. The old me would have felt frustrated, thinking months of hard work had vanished overnight. ‘Is training always two steps forward, one step back?’ ‘What is the point of mastering a skill?’ 'After I reach a goal, must I always chase the next harder one?’ These doubts used to bother me. Everything changed during my recent hike across the Seven Sis

Day 1 is always the most memorable. Back then, we had the drive to push ourselves forward; we dared to take on challenges and weren’t afraid of failure—all because we longed for that moment of success. But after tasting even a little success, we can become drunk on satisfaction. That’s why, at DAILYCALI, I consider the balance between “challenge and satisfaction” to be one of the key factors in session design. Fortunately, this is the most beautiful aspect of calisthenics: th

Pt. Kindness: When it comes to trust, I believe in either full trust or no trust at all. Trust is an act of kindness—it means believing that the other person is also kind, having the same kind of faith, and being willing to grow together. It seems that ever since I’ve followed this principle, my path has been smooth and steady. Over the past five years at DAILYCALI—from writing blog articles to leading courses to the teamwork we do today—it has been one kind person after anot
