About CalisthenicsLearn More

Simply put, calisthenics is a type of exercise where you only use your own body weight. Unlike traditional weightlifting, where you add weight to a barbell or dumbbell to increase difficulty, calisthenics puts your body through all the resistance. Calisthenics refers to performing sports exercises with the help of body weight and earth's gravity. You have to do some exercises that have different intensities and sometimes can be very difficult while maintaining proper body shape. The good thing about this method is that you don't need a gym and sports equipment and you can do it at home. All types of gymnastics, pilates and basic and simple sports such as running, squatting, lunging, sitting, jumping and walking are included in the group of calisthenics exercises. Calisthenics include high-speed activities and movements that focus on most of the body's muscle groups. You should do these exercises for at least 10 to 12 repetitions. If you have the ability, you should increase the number of repetitions and sets and activate and strengthen the muscles well.
