Exercises in Bebop Calisthenics 1 Question

All the Bebop Calisthenics are based on their corresponding summary page in the workbook. In page 31, you’ll find the summary of everything I’m doing in that video. It is not in the same order. The reason for this is:
1: The summary in the workbook is meant to be used with all fingering patterns and just gives you the formula for the exercise so you can adapt it accordingly.

2: In the video I played all the exercises first descending for the 3 current patterns being used, and later on ascending. In the workbook summary it says to play each exercise both descending and ascending. It amounts to the same thing.

After experimenting with doing all of them first descending and then ascending, I found it more productive, quicker and easier to do each exercise descending and immediately ascending. So if I had separate instructions for descending and ascending, I was able to consolidate all of them into one set of instructions. This means that if I had 20 exercises in the video, I now only have 10 in the summary. This was an afterthought after the video was done. I was only able to adopt this approach for calisthenics featured in later modules.

When you practice the calisthenics, the video is supposed to be used only initially to orient you and give you details as to proper fingering use and other issues which you may encounter when trying to do a specific exercise. Once you have watched the video, please practice from the corresponding summary in the workbook.

Let me know if this is clear or if you have any more questions…
