Andres Strength Coach

Approaching 40. Squatting 130kg. Deadlifting 150kg.

Getting better at calisthenics skills I never thought I'd have.
But the numbers aren't the point.
No pain. Real energy. Stress handled.

Feeling like myself in my body. That's what training actually built not just a physique.

A foundation for everything else.
If you're in your 30s and ready to build something real not a transformation photo, but an actual athletic life DM me.

Let's build it.

Most shoulder injuries from dips were completely avoidable.
Not too heavy. Wrong sequence, wrong timing, wrong foundation.

After 30 your stabilisers need to be trained before the load arrives
not after. Three steps. Details in the reel.
Save this before your next push session.

🔥 Consistency isn’t the problem
You can show up every week and still stay in the same place

❌ Same effort
❌ Same stimulus
❌ Same body

💡 Consistency starts the engine 🔥
💪 Progression moves the car
😎 This matters in your 30's

Your tuck is clean.
Your extension collapses every time.
Here's the exact reason.

Extending your legs doubles the load on your hip flexors.
Not because you're weak, because you've never trained them at that range.
Two exercises fix it.
Details in the reel.

Save this.
Go back to Part 1 if you haven't built the foundation yet.

Some sessions you don't want to train.

You're tired. Work was heavy. The couch looks very reasonable.

I still go. Not because I'm superhuman.
Because I've built the habit deep enough that not going feels stranger than going.
That's the goal. Not constant motivation automaticity.

Approaching 40, I've trained through some genuinely difficult periods.
And every time, the consistency was what kept me grounded.

The session doesn't have to be great. It just has to happen.

You've been trying to muscle through a pistol squat.
That's exactly why you're still stuck.

The pistol isn't a strength exercise you force.
It's a movement pattern built on three specific foundations most people have never trained, ankle mobility, hip flexor control, and eccentric quad strength.

All three. In order.

The good news: once you address the actual blockers, progress comes fast.

The bad news: no amount of extra reps fixes a mobility or control deficit.

Save this if the pistol has been frustrating you.
The answer is probably in this reel.

If you keep just trying your kick-up, don’t expect different results.
The kick-up isn’t luck, it’s mechanics.

Foot placement, tension, angle, timing. When you fix those, everything else gets easier.
Without it, your handstand is always a fight.

Inside the program, I give you personalized video breakdowns so you stop guessing and finally get consistent reps.
Share this with the friend who keeps overshooting every time.

Your hips crash the second you try the L-sit. Here's why that's not a strength problem.
The L-sit looks simple. Arms locked, hips up, hold. But the moment you try it, you're back on the floor wondering what went wrong.

Here's what nobody in the calisthenics space talks about: it's not about strength. It's about sequence.

Most people jump straight to the full position before they've built the foundation. And after 30, that shortcut costs you more time than you think, because your hip flexors and core don't respond to random volume the way they did at 22.

You have to earn each layer.
Support holds → tuck hold → single leg extension. In that order.
Miss a step and you'll be stuck in the same place six months from now.

This is Part 1 of 6. The full sequence is mapped out for you.
Save this so you don't lose the order.
Follow for Part 2, that's where most people actually stall.

A few years ago, rest days made me anxious. I thought if I wasn't training, I was falling behind.
That mindset gave me two injuries, burnout, and a year of going backwards.

Now I know: progress is built in recovery, not during training. The training is just the stimulus.
Approaching 40, I protect my recovery like I protect my training sessions. Same discipline, different expression.

Rest isn't weakness. It's strategy.
