Our Gym FAQ

What is Calisthenics?

Calisthenics (kuh-lis-then-iks) is a dynamic exercise method that utilizes your own bodyweight for resistance training. This fitness approach, derived from the Greek words for “beauty” (kállos) and “strength” (sthenos), empowers you to sculpt a toned physique and enhance your overall mobility without the need for fancy gym equipment.

Is Calisthenics good for beginners?

Absolutely! Calisthenics offers bodyweight exercises that can be modified for various fitness levels. You can start with easier variations like incline push-ups or knee raises and progress to more challenging exercises as you get stronger.

Can I build muscle with just Calisthenics?

Yes, you can definitely build muscle with Calisthenics. While reaching extreme muscle mass might be difficult compared to weight training, Calisthenics can help you develop impressive strength and definition. There are advanced Calisthenics skills that require significant muscle to perform.

Do I need any equipment to do Calisthenics?

The beauty of Calisthenics is that it requires minimal equipment. You can use your bodyweight for a full-body workout anywhere. However, some Calisthenics parks offer bars, pull-up stations, and dip bars that can help you perform specific exercises.

How can I progress in Calisthenics?

There are several ways to keep challenging yourself in Calisthenics. You can increase the difficulty of exercises by changing your body position, increasing repetitions or sets, or reducing rest time. There are also progressions for advanced moves like muscle-ups or planche push-ups.

What are the benefits of Calisthenics?

Calisthenics offers a wide range of benefits including:

Accessibility: You can work out anywhere, anytime!

Full-body workout: Calisthenics exercises engage multiple muscle groups at once.

Improves functional movement: Many Calisthenics exercises mimic everyday movements, improving overall coordination and balance.

Strength and muscle building: As mentioned, Calisthenics can help you build significant strength and muscle definition.

Cost-effective: Since minimal equipment is needed, Calisthenics is a budget-friendly exercise option.
