Functional Strength Through Calisthenics and Bodyweight Training

Even if you're not quite sure what calisthenics is, you'll have definitely seen it in action.

The ripped guy at your gym who's able to lift his whole upper-body above a pull-up bar - that's a muscle-up and he's doing calisthenics. The guy you saw on YouTube who's turned himself into a human flag by holding his body parallel to the ground, he's doing calisthenics too, and that guy you've seen doing dips in the park, yep, that's calisthenics.

Calisthenics is a form of fitness which utilises gravity and bodyweight leverage to challenge your fitness level.
