If you’re tired of your normal workout routine then you should check out Calisthenics.

Calisthenics is a workout format of gymnast movement combined with grass motor movement. It’s essentially a body weight workout since the only equipment required are bars. Compared to weightlifting, Calisthenics won’t help you develop muscle mass quickly but rather improve your posture, core, and motor skills over time. It emulates your muscles in real-life situations as it focuses on full-body movements. It can work out the lower body, upper body, and core. Some exercises include: L-sit, one arm pull up, handstand push ups, and L-dips. The only disadvantage about Calisthenics is as you grow stronger, your weight resistance lowers. That’s why founder and CEO of THNX, Chris Heria, combines Calisthenics with weightlifting to achieve maximum results. Check out his video on how he got started.

After traveling the world to compete in multiple Calisthenic tournaments, Heria created the first ever Calisthenics gymnasium in Miami, Florida. He also released his very own Heria Pro app, in which you’re able to follow ready-made workouts or create your own, regardless of whether you’re a beginner or pro. Heria isn’t the only one that’s hooked on Calisthenics.

Check out Simone Mings and Demi Bagby. These women are Calisthenic warriors that take their fitness to the next level.
