5 Things I Wish I Knew When I Started Calisthenics

1 - Master the basics.
You don’t need fancy exercises. Pull-ups, dips, push-ups, and rows, when done well, are enough to transform your physique.

2 - Progress takes years, not weeks.
Stop chasing quick results. Focus on doing the work. Muscle and skill both grow through consistency.

3 - Quality matters.
One perfect rep is more valuable than ten sloppy ones. Control your movement. Train with intent.

4 - Injuries reveal what ego hides.
I’ve spent years as a physiotherapist watching people train poorly, and I was no exception when I started. Prioritise form and longevity. Train smart so you can train for life.

5 - Consistency beats motivation.
You won’t always feel like training. Do it anyway. That’s how real results are built.

The truth is, you can’t change your genetics, but you can control your discipline.

You don’t need to be perfect. You just need to keep showing up, learning, and pushing forward.

If I can do it, so can you..
