It is a workout with your body body, do not use weights or external machines, you are against the weight of your body, this is super great since you can practice it anywhere, in a park with bars, in a bar in your house , in the parallels of the street, the possibilities are endless.

This is the same in a gym workout divided by muscle groups, the basic exercises of calisthenics are the Pull-Ups, Push-Ups, Squats, Chin-Ups, Shoulder Push-ups, these exercises are those that occupy the most amount of muscle mass and are the ones that require more strength, therefore, are the exercises that will cost you the most to master, but once mastering them everything else will be easier.

The most important thing I would emphasize about this discipline is patience in your progression of strength, it takes some time to adapt your body to gain strength, but once you have mastered this it is a perfect discipline to obtain an athletic and functional body, it will not give you a giant size or huge muscles of bodybuilder, will give you an aesthetic and defined physique, a beautiful body, this is an advantage of calisthenics and is that as you use many muscle groups for exercises apart from creating muscle you burn fat at the same time, it is for that when you practice it you will have an impressive body.

And well once you progress you can do more impressive exercises and maneuvers as professionals do, one of the most representative exercises is the Front-Lever and also one of the most difficult, later I will share my progress with this discipline, if you wish start on YouTube there are many examples of routines and complete programs, remember everything is patience and effort.
