Why You Should Start Outdoor Calisthenics Training
Do you want to get fit but you're feeling uninspired? Are you looking for a new fitness routine that is both challenging and rewarding? Then calisthenics may be the answer! More and more people in Amsterdam are choosing to train calisthenics. Calisthenics combines basic bodyweight movements, mobility exercises and strength training to help you reach your fitness goals. Here at Famba Fitness, myself and the team believe that calisthenics offers a great way to get into shape and unlock unimaginable physical potential for all levels.
Is Calisthenics For You?
Calisthenics is an activity that is accessible to all fitness levels. No matter what your background, size, shape or strength level, there will always be some types of calisthenics training routines that can be modified to fit your needs.
I believe that everyone should have the opportunity to take part in a calisthenics training program. There is a wide array of training methods and creative movements that can be used to cater to different levels of fitness and skill sets.
Beginners can start by focusing on bodyweight exercises to improve muscular strength and gain an understanding of how the joints move and how to engage your muscles. The best way to do these is to start with exercises you can do for 3 sets of 10-15 reps. Intermediate-level athletes can move on to more challenging strength movements such as pull-ups, pike push-ups, back levers and bent arm planches, while more advanced athletes can focus on complex movements like handstand push-ups, cool ring sequences and more creative elements.
Calisthenics may be demanding and challenging (relative to the individual), but it is also incredibly rewarding. Being able to complete a particular sequence or movement will give you a sense of accomplishment and boost your morale.
As a calisthenics personal trainer, I enjoy guiding students through their journey here in beautiful Amsterdam and ensuring positive progress is achieved. The image I want to share at Famba Fitness is that calisthenics is accessible and achievable for all levels. There's no reason to wait any longer. Start your calisthenics journey today!
Why Calisthenics Training Is Best Done Outdoors
One of the attractive things about calisthenics is that it can be done anywhere, indoors, outdoors, at a gym, in the park or at home, you can suit it to your schedule. Let me explain why training calisthenics outdoors will increase your health score EVEN MORE!
1. Improved Health: Regular outdoor calisthenics training can help improve your overall health and well-being.
