Calisthenics workout are systematic body weight exercises performed with or without equipment…
Are you thinking you can’t gain strength, power and muscle mass with a calisthenics routine?
Calisthenic may be sen as an old school way of developing an amazing natural physique…
Dear Friend,
We’re referring to exercises that put your body through natural patterns of movement…
In other words, trains your entire circuit from thought to action.
This is essential if you want new muscle to be capable of doing anything (functional strength).
When you use muscles in real life, they move against the resistance of your own body weight.
Body weight training exercises are calisthenics…
This is still one of the best way to build functional strength.
Calisthenics are also much more effective in strengthening ligaments and tendons.
Your muscles respond to resistance and to build strength you can work against your own body weight.
Yes, back in the good ole’ days, truly amazing physiques were made with sweat, tears and calisthenic training.
Gymnasts, boxers, men in the armed services and athletes all used this simple, yet powerful adaptation training.
Calisthenics or body weight training has been around since the very beginning of fitness…
Using calisthenics alone or even with your daily weight training routines are great ways to build a lean and strong physique.
What are the benefits of calisthenics for size, fat loss, conditioning and strength development?
Strength development boils down to push-ups, pull-ups variations by using a strategy to manage adaptation in the training process.
The goal is to achieve a level of strength you haven’t experienced before.
Calisthenics builds a good solid foundation for more strength and better recovery.
Have you always been able to do a pull-up?
When I first started I could barely crank out three or four pull-ups.
As I got stronger, did pull-ups every other day and by the end of first month was doing 15 to 20 super slow and controlled pull-ups without stopping.
Everyone noticed I developed thickness in upper and lower back including rear delts.
And shoulders were wider with density…biceps also gained size as well.
You might find it pays to continue experimenting to test what works for your own body.
Including pushing barriers in doing many different variations with changes in intensity.
