Beginner seeking advice: Focus on basics or advanced skills for calisthenics?

Hey everyone, Wade here. I'm new to calisthenics and looking for some guidance. Should I concentrate on mastering the fundamentals before attempting more advanced moves? I've seen people doing L-sits and frog stands online, and I'm wondering if I should be working towards those. My current routine includes modified dips (using a bench), push-ups, planks (though I can only hold for about 35 seconds), squats, lunges, and inverted rows since I can't do pull-ups yet. Are there other exercises I should incorporate? Also, I'm unsure about proper warm-up routines. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help in kickstarting my calisthenics journey!

Focus on mastering the basics first. Build a solid foundation with push-ups, squats, and planks. Gradually increase difficulty and add new exercises as you progress. A proper warm-up should include dynamic stretches and light cardio. Be patient and consistent, and you'll see great results!
