Hello again! My 2nd time posting here. A bit more comfortable with asking fitness related questions kasi so far, ang warm at ang motivating ng mga responses niyo
So Iāve been eyeing calisthenics as a sport/exercise since I discovered it, because it looks like something I can do at home with less equipment, Iām an introvert so Iām not too interested na mag-gym (for now), and tbh ang cool lang talaga tingnan ng mga tao na kaya mag pull-ups, muscle ups, hand stand, at push-ups na parang ang swabe lang pero their bodies are so strong and so capable of a lot.
Currently I am at 59kg, 5ft height 25 y.o. female. Iām on the process of losing weight by 30min. jumping rope HIIT, 30min. walking, and dumbbell training (2lb. arm exercises). A month before, nag sa-start na ako pag practice ng push ups in progression from doing wall push ups, to incline push ups, until makaya ko yung actual na. Yung progression ko ngayon is to kneeling push-ups na where I canāt do them well because I have wrist pain sa left wrist ko. That was already there for longer than 2 years na and I thought it would go away if masanay na yung wrists ko through progressions na Iām making. Yung pain is hindi ko ma bend yung wrist ko and put my weight in like the āL shapeā when you do push-ups on the floor, pero when I did it sa wall and on incline, walang pain.
Yung push-ups from what Iāve been seeing ay yung pinaka foundation ng calisthenics, so I guess yung pinaka questions ko are:

Yung push-ups from what Iāve been seeing ay yung pinaka foundation ng calisthenics, so I guess yung pinaka questions ko are:
- Mawawala din ba yung pain through continuing na masanay yung wrists ko sa movement/weight ng katawan ko?
- Could the pain possibly be because of my weight?
- In connection to #2, should I lose some weight siguro before continuing training yung push ups ko?
- Are there any other exercises to gradually get me into calisthenics (gustong gusto ko talaga )
- Are there stretching/exercises to get rid of wrist pain and improve mobility?
