Calisthenics has become a popular sport in recent years. You can see on YouTube a lot of Calisthenics guys with an impressive physique. You may wonder if you need to work out every day for many hours to achieve such a body. You can see initial results from Calisthenics after a few months if you train at least twice a week. To see a significant change, you have to train for years. Everybody wants to see quick progress, but If you try to speed up at the beginning, you may end up with joint pain or injuries.
So what kind of results can you expect from Calisthenics? The answer is that you can achieve an athletic physique with a natural look. You can expect a noticeable improvement in the upper body and core muscles and less body fat. Also, keep in mind that in most of the Calisthenics exercises, the emphasis is on the upper body and core muscles.
Your back, chest, abs, shoulders, and arms will be more prominent than the legs. In case your legs seem small compared to your body, you may face an aesthetic problem. To reduce body fat significantly, you have to focus on proper nutrition.
The truth is that you can lose fat simply with diet and without exercise. What can you expect after three months of Calisthenics? And, the more often you train, the faster you gain. The timeframes I will give are based on the assumption that the person trying to learn them has some level of strength and mobility i.
The handstand is very neurological, which means it takes a lot of brain power. We trained for nearly 2 hours. I was dead for almost a week after. Assuming you have the requisite hamstring mobility, you can achieve this maybe even within 3 months by working on your hanging and supported dip bars knee raises.
This move loves frequent practice and responds well to it. Note: the rings and floor L-sit are significantly harder in my opinion. Bar or rings is irrelevant as both are strict, OK? Incidentally, in my opinion a strict muscle up on the rings is easier than a strict bar muscle up.
The back lever is by far the easier of the 2 here. Assuming one has a good foundation within calisthenics, a back lever can be achieved within a year. Perform 2 to 3 rounds of the following exercises, but shorten the rest period from 2 minutes down to 1 minute in between rounds. Squat down, keeping your back straight, until your thighs are parallel with the floor and your bum is about level with your knees.
Explode upwards into a jump, and go straight into the next squat. Get in a press-up position but with your arms as far in front of your head as you can reach. Hold yourself there with your arms fully extended. Make sure your back is straight and hold for the allotted time. Lunge forward until your rear knee is almost touching the ground. Jump into the air, bringing your rear foot forward and the front foot back.
Land in a lunge and repeat. Grab a pull-up bar and lower yourself into a dead hang. Let your legs straighten and pull your pelvis back slightly. Tense your core and raise your legs until your thighs are perpendicular to your torso. Hold then lower slowly back to the starting position.

As a street calisthenics athlete, you will have to use different training parameters to achieve the necessary skills and become a street calisthenics master. If we divide maximal strength based on the different areas of the body, we have 3 basic categories:.
To train for maximal strength you will have to follow a system training plan with high intensity and low reps. The appropriate exercises and progressions for strength training are the ones with which you can perform reps.
Training for this type of strength requires a completely different approach than regular strength in terms of programming. Even though conditioning and endurance are two different things, you can easily combine them into one workout. If you want to focus completely on endurance, you can do that with sub-max sets, GTG or skill specific training plans. A sub-max set workout, is when in each set you are performing as many reps as possible without going to failure. Naturally, every set is going to consist of a different number of reps with the last sets having the least reps.
GTG is a training method in which instead of having a fixed workout time, you train multiple times through the day. For example, instead of doing 3 set of 8 pull ups, you could perform 25 reps through the day using multiple sets. Light sets. If your max pull ups are 8, for example, your should be training with reps per set. A skill specific plan is a training plan that incorporates different training techniques and parameters to achieve a specific goal.
As such, you can train for skills every day and multiple times per day, if you want to achieve a certain skill faster. For this reason, you should train for one skill at a time. Keep in mind, that you may meet some of the standards in the level you are while not being able to meet others. For example, if from the beginner standards you meet only the push up requirement 30 reps , you should modify your training to meet the next standard 40 reps.
Workout 1 is the main workout and should be practiced 3 times per week. Workout 2 is the scapula training workout and should be practiced 2 times per week. C2: 3x sub-max hip bridges. A1: 3x scapula push up. A2: 3x scapula body row. B1: 3x scapular elevation. B2: 3x scapular depression.
