Conquering Your Bodyweight: How to Start Your Calisthenics Journey in Amsterdam

Welcome back to Calisthenics Amsterdam! Inspired by our previous blog, you’re eager to ditch the machines and delve into the world of bodyweight training. But where do you begin? Don’t worry, this guide will equip you with everything you need to kickstart your Calisthenics adventure in Amsterdam.

Building a Strong Foundation

Calisthenics might seem simple, but mastering proper form is crucial to prevent injuries and maximize results. Here’s how to lay a solid foundation:

  • Focus on the Fundamentals: Start with bodyweight staples like squats, lunges, push-ups (knee push-ups are a great option for beginners!), planks, and dips. These exercises target major muscle groups and build a strong base for more advanced movements.
  • Master Your Form: Quality over quantity! It’s more beneficial to perform exercises with perfect form than struggle with poor technique. There are many instructional videos online you can utilize, and don’t hesitate to ask a trainer for guidance.
  • Listen to Your Body: This is your journey, so prioritize proper rest and recovery. Don’t push yourself to the point of pain. Gradually increase intensity and duration as you get stronger.

Crafting Your Calisthenics Routine

Now that you’ve grasped the basics, it’s time to design your workout routine! Here are some tips:

  • Set SMART Goals: Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Time-bound goals will keep you motivated. Do you want to build muscle, improve endurance, or master a specific Calisthenics skill?
  • Start Simple: Begin with 2-3 workouts per week, focusing on 2-3 sets of 8-12 repetitions for each exercise. As you get stronger, you can increase the number of sets, reps, or add more challenging variations.
  • Find Your Flow: There’s no one-size-fits-all approach. Experiment with different exercises, circuit training, or bodyweight HIIT workouts to discover what keeps you engaged.
