How I Started Calisthenics
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
Ten Years On: Presence in Teaching and Learning
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.

Ten Years for seconds
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.

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
