        Hi Miguel,

        It’s #7 on page 74 in the workbook. What’s going on is that here it’s just ascending whereas in the summary I’ve consolidated every exercise to be descending and ascending.

        Here’s a response I gave to another member recently regarding this confusion with the Calisthenics summaries:

        “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.”

        As a result, I will add a note at the beginning of the Calisthenics videos to not try to view the summaries together with the videos but instead to consider them a stand alone set of instructions.

          Thx Richie, i understand that

          I was looking for the one descending to get something cleared.
          Doing this one, we repeat the 1 twice ?

          b7 5 ch ch b3 1 1 ch b7 5 ch ch b3 1 1 ch b7 5 – like this ?
