Mixed in calisthenics lately. 10/10. Recommend

Fun having new goals (skill work) instead of just weights++

Def leveled up balance, muscle control, and functional strength 

Took some time and persistence to get off the ground (literally) but starting at ~0 on these skills meant progress was relatively quick

No, just make my own. Skill work mixed in with weight training

The skills being planche, front lever, pistol (one-legged) squats, and Nordic curls

Pistol squats are killer. My balance sucks

I found the key for me was to really work on my ankle mobility... then I did assisted pistols using gymnastics rings to hold the bulk of my weight in order to identify other range of motion issues to work on

Any ankle mobility exercises other than just ROM stuff?

Mostly lunge stance rotations and the rotating deep squat similar to what's described here:
