My very first calisthenics workout. Went well and the last part gor interesting. Hoping to build more and gain more muscle and develop that lean body mass.

Awesome, well paced and still very challenging. Thank you!

Jackie

I did full pull ups, chin ups, dips, and pushups. Damn I'm pumped 💪

Took a couple weeks off. Feels good to get back to it. Thank you Taylor!

Hard for beginner. I was already fit and I did workout any problem but hard enough for a great workout.

André

A great start to the basics. Where can you get the bar equipment used in the videos?

Chantell

Harder than I thought it would be! It was a great arm day full of basics I've been needing. 🤘

Awesome !! Super excited to keep growing and become better at it

Layonna

Hey! There is some confusion with instructions on this and some other of your exercises in Calisthenics when it comes to pull-ups/chin-ups! The text and the video do not always match so its unsure which I should trust :)

Vilma

Wow! What an awesome intro workout! I have no doubt I’ll be stronger by the end of this.

Patrice Kelly

Kelsey

Maria

Nick

As always my arms feel amazing and by amazing I mean dead

Katie

Michelle

Wow! Feeling this! Broke a sweat and out of breath!

Laurie Weiler

I’m used to doing some moderate exercise, but I’m not a workout pro either. This was hard but in a good way! I felt like this thoroughly worked out my arms/shoulders and I also felt myself using my core, which was great! 😊

Another great workout! Really enjoy this cali program! I didn’t have a box to jump on, so replaced this exercise with step ups.

It was a little bit challenging, but I nailed it 👌

W1/D2

Really enjoyed this workout- it was tough but doable 💪🏻🔥😍

Not easy 🥵 but I enjoyed it very much.

Loved the P-bar exercises! I don’t have access to p-bars so I just used our dip bars

Kierra

Fast but very effective workout 💯👍🏻

It is not the first time in this course that pull up/chin up is mixed up. Meaning you say you want to see a pull up but the explanatory video shows a chin up. Or vice versa. Also, static holds in this workout with reps but no time. 

Otherwise I am a fan of your workouts :)

The workouts seem so simple yet they’re so effective!

W2/D3

Awesome program! Excited to start the next one!

I absolutely love these workouts, no weights and I still feel like my legs are toast at the end of them!  More like this please!!!!
