Calisthenics are repetitive rhythmic exercises that help to strenghten the body and improve the figure. The word "calisthenics" has come from the Greek words 'kallos' for beauty and 'thenos' for strength.
The calisthenics exercise are intense and physically demanding, even at the Core level. As you will quickly discover in practice, the exercises program are much harder than they look.
Calisthenics increase the metabolic rate, so one should not stop in-between exercises, in order to rest. Instead you can walk on the spot to keep up the metabolic rate. your ultimate aim should be to repeat each exercise 25 to 30 times.
