Take it one move at a time
It all starts with a specific goal. Calisthenics is a broad discipline covering strength and flexibility. Try and take it on all at once and you’ll get demotivated. I started off keeping things clear and simple, focusing on one move at a time. It might be a pull-up, or even a press-up. Breaking exercises down gives you a faster sense of achievement – then you build to the next level and more complex moves. My first big buzz was when I felt my balance for the first time in a handstand, after practicing solidly for over three months.
