Avoid These 3 Common Calisthenics Mistakes Beginners Make 🚀

Don’t make these 3 common beginner mistakes when starting with calisthenics.

SOLUTIONS:

1) Get a coach or do your own research (read books, search on the internet,…) to make your program and stick to it.

2) Work on 2-4 skills at a time. this way, your body can better adapt to both motor and muscular stimuli, without too much interference from other skills. As a result, you will be able to make faster progression in the skills you are currently focusing on. It is also advisable to divide the skills between the push and pull category, so that you can build an efficient schedule with as little chance of overuse injuries as possible.

3) For compound exercises (e.g. pull-up, dip or push-up), it is advisable to rest at least 3MIN or more (if you need it) between sets. These are often very tiring exercises that target many different muscle groups. For isolation exercises (e.g. bicep curls or tricep extensions), it is enough to rest at least 1MIN 30 seconds or more between sets. These are exercises that are not as tiring for your body because they engage fewer muscles. If you don’t take these guidelines into account (e.g. you only rest 1MIN between sets on the pull-up exercise) you will find that your performance will drop and your overall volume will drastically decrease resulting in slower long-term progression.
