The Practical Blog For Calisthenics Beginners

Calisthenic Beginners, Calisthenics Workout

Hardcore routines and vein-popping faces keep readers like you glued to every word.

Triggering your curiosity by hinting at something big and impressive that is going to be shared.

They are effective, but today you are going to learn about something else.

This underrated exercise, is so easy, you will find it hard to believe how powerful it actually is.

And the best part?

It does not require anything.

There is just one problem, you don’t know how potent it is yet.

And once you do, everything else only gets better.

Today, you’ll learn how one simple exercise can become your hidden superpower.

It hurts me to say this -I know you are working your ass off- but you are failing miserably at on thing.

A few months ago, you could nearly lift the phone you are reading this on and now you are doing push ups, pull ups, dips, squats and perhaps even muscle ups.

Still, you feel like you are a weakling compared to all those athletes on youtube, instagram and facebook.

You think about quitting, giving it all up.

Your motivation is leaking away, like water in a bucket filled with holes and the thought of that happening disappoints me, it really does.

After all, you’re leaps closer to where you where when you started working out.

And you work just as hard as those ‘people you look up to’, sometimes even harder because you know you have some huge patches of ground to cover.

Believe it or not, but they look up to you too.

At least I do, not because I’m trying to kiss your ass. No, the real reason why I look up to you is because you are willing to go out there.

You just need to find a way to fill up those holes that are eating away at your motivation and discover how much you have really grown.

How often do you feel like not training?

How often do you roll your eyes and decide that you’ll do it tomorrow?

Or even completely decide to not do it any more at all?

If you are choosing the long road to real results you will have many of those days.

It’s not surprising.

Because you aren’t choosing the path of least resistance, you are choosing the path of most resistance.

How can you overcome it?

In this post, I will share a simple word to break through resistance and to re-write who you will become.

Let’s get real here.

You are someone who acts, not someone who talks.

You want to work your ass off.

Day in, day out…

But you also want to know how you can do this as efficiently as possible.

Which is just as important as working hard.

The problem is that you are new to this and there are tons of routines, but which should you do?

The good news? This question has been asked over 10.000 times.

The bad news? There isn’t a one-size-fits-all for everyone.

While it differs per individual, I believe that with this 6 month calisthenics workout plan you’ll be pretty much covered as a beginner.

Keep what is useful, discard what is not and add what works best for you.

Ready to go from a beginner to a BEAST?

Are your wrists painful all the time?

Perhaps it is keeping you from training harder.

Or maybe you just keep pushing through because you are passionate about calisthenics.

I have walked around with some serious wrist pain from training.

At the time, I just accepted it and kept going.

Until I really couldn’t anymore. And let’s be honest, who stands on one hand for fun without getting painful wrists at some point?

Fast forward to today and thanks to a little tender love and care, my wrists don’t feel like those of an old man any more.

I wish I had known this as a beginner.

But thankfully you are never too old to learn.

Here is how I treated my wrist pain:

There are fuckloads of articles out there on how to get a six pack, but here is what makes this one different:

I’ve been living with a six pack for 10+ years.

Love at first sight.

In fact, I spend my life in single digits body fat levels without worrying about ‘cutting’.

From the outside it looks like the ideal relationship.

Which at times it is, but just as with any other relationship the reality isn’t all puppies and sunshine.

Thanks to online marketing, a six pack has created almost mythical expectations for those who are looking to obtain it.

And high expectations usually lead to disappointing realisations.

If you have to believe all the marketeers, a six pack will magically transform your life into a James Bond movie. One in which you are the confident guy who has the money, kills the bad guy and ends up getting the hot girl at the end.

That sounds too good to be true, doesn’t it?

I’m not saying you can’t become a six-pack-rocking Bond, but before you decide to start your life with a six pack, here are 36 eye-opening realisations I want to share with you:
