Calisthenics is a discipline that hooks the people who practice it because it requires achieving small challenges in each training session. That motivation makes it achieve spectacular physical changes in body composition. The body must adapt to the demands to which it is subjected with this training, so we will gain strength and muscle mass. These are some of the radical changes in calisthenics that can be found online. Physical and strength changes thanks to calisthenics, Andrea Larosa has a channel with 400,000 subscribers on YouTube where she shares her training progress and teaches routines and circuit training. In one of those videos, he shows how his body composition has changed thanks to calisthenics. In this case, as in many others, much of that change is due to the fact that he was still a teenager in the initial photo. The maturation of the physique when going through this vital stage, together with the calisthenics training, gives rise to brutal changes like Andrea's. Dark, We's This year-old transformation video for Dark, is the first of his videos on his YouTube channel. He currently has another more recent change after six years of calisthenics. In them, we can observe the body recomposition thanks to the exercises with his own body. Magnus Marker In the Calisthenics Unity channel, we find several transformations due to calisthenics. In the case of Magnus Marker, not only is a change observed on an aesthetic level, but also in his posture. We also see how the difficulty of the exercises that he executes is increasing. Michael Schulz Mica, Schulz is another of the calisthenics YouTubers who have shown a radical change since their beginnings in this discipline. In his video, we can observe the process of four years of training where he improves his physique and his weights are lifted in exercises such as pull-ups and parallel funds. An important detail that we highlight is the intensity that it gives to lower body exercises such as deadlifts. One of the problems with calisthenics is the possible misalignment of the upper body and lower body, which can be replaced with exercises with one's own body weight, but training with high loads will provide us with extra quality. Kronor, Calisthenics On this occasion, more than a physical change, which is also notorious, we highlight the progress in the difficulty of the exercises. Calisthenics club creator, Kronor, shows the differences over three years of training, comparing them against each other to see the progression. Basic calisthenics exercises such as planks, handstands, or different parallel exercises are improving year by year. It is a motivating video that makes us see that physical and performance changes can be achieved with perseverance and patience. Why is calisthenics an ideal discipline to improve body composition and increase strength? Small goals to get exercise Calisthenics, like life, consists of breaking a very complex exercise into smaller, easier steps. Each step we achieve brings us closer to our goal. After a while, we will be able to achieve an exercise that long ago we saw as impossible. Those little doses of motivation keep people sticking to calisthenics and not giving it up as much as strength work in the gym. That kind of, more analytical work is often more boring for people who aren't drawn to pure strength training. We increase the intensity every day without realizing it When we seek to execute a tremendously difficult exercise such as the human flag, we need to practice much simpler exercises first. Every day we will try something more intense that brings us closer to that final goal, in this case, the human flag. When doing strength training in the gym, we have to carry the weight and the repetitions noted to progress every day. Putting one more plate on a machine is also very motivating, but calisthenics plays that intensity factor better. Motivation for discipline and peers Calisthenics usually bring together clubs or a group of people who are going to train in a group. Each of these people has more advanced or backward movements, which causes them to motivate each other to beat their partner. The companionship when it comes to helping other people is also an interesting factor in which calisthenics tends to stand out compared to training in a weight room. For this reason, disciplines like CrossFit have so many followers: because of their motivation to achieve better marks and because of the warmth of the team.
