If you’re here to find the best calisthenics books to accelerate your badass bodyweight training goals, you’re in the perfect place!
I first became interested in calisthenics when I realized I couldn’t do a single pull-up. (This will never cease to bother me, as I had been a personal trainer for years by that time!).
After I stumbled along through training and finally mastered my first one, I became fascinated by what our bodies are capable of. And calisthenics just hits different than lifting heavy weights or – dare I say it? – even being able to run far distances.
Can you tell I was a cross country runner for a large part of my life?
There’s something so crazy cool about being able to lift, support, and manipulate your own body. Having the control and strength do perform calisthenics exercises makes you feel so empowered.
