What is Calisthenics?
Calisthenics, also known as Street Workout, is a form of exercise that uses bodyweight to build strength, muscle, and endurance. The word comes from the Greek words "kallos" (beauty) and "sthenos" (strength).
Unlike traditional gym workouts, calisthenics requires no special equipment—just your body and determination. Exercises include push-ups, pull-ups, dips, and bodyweight squats, making it accessible to everyone, everywhere.
History & Evolution
Street workout is a modern style of physical culture developed from calisthenics. It's also called urban gymnastics, street exercise, or urban calisthenics.
The first recorded calisthenics crew, Ruff Ryders, was founded in 2002 and popularized the movement through their DVD "Thug Workout." This movement emerged as people sought alternatives to expensive gyms, creating a sport that could be practiced anywhere using public bars and playground equipment.
Core Principles of Street Workout:
Freedom of execution - you can do whatever you want as long as it's safe
No equipment needed - all exercises are done with your body weight
