Full Body Calisthenics Workout For Beginners

It's time-efficient, all you need is a floor, and you can change the intensity and pause when you need to. It's almost the perfect "burn out" exercise for the end of the workout!

 

How Frequently Should You Do This Workout?

I always suggest new exercisers start out doing this routine two to three times per week.

Make sure to have a complete day of rest in between sessions.

An example schedule would look like this:

Train Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Rest Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday.

OR

Train Monday and Thursday, Rest Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

 

On the days you aren't training, I highly suggest going on walks and participating in sports or hobbies you enjoy. Working out doesn't need to be your life, but it should be a pillar used to let you get the most out of it.

Training will make you better at your favorite sports, it'll help promote your health so you can do the hobbies you love, plus it might even make you look like a sexy looking beast. You know, if that's something you're looking to achieve. (Surprisingly, not everyone wants to be a mass monster!)

Keep It Simple - Train. Rest. Repeat.

Now that you have your trusty gymnastic rings and pull-up bar from PullUp&Dip, a beginner's full body calisthenics workout, and the basic knowledge you need to move forward then you are more than well on your way to your fitness journey.

Eventually, you will need more difficult exercises and will need more exercises to keep progressing, but this should get you up and started.

The most important thing for a beginner is to just get started and start building a habit.

You don't need to do everything perfectly, you just need to start!
