Buy North Atlantic Books Complete Calisthenics, Second Edition: The Ultimate Guide to Bodyweight Exercise by Kalym, Ashley online on desertcart.ae at best prices. ✓ Fast and free shipping ✓ free returns ✓ cash on delivery available on eligible purchase. Review: Useless - No better then going on YouTube. Review: This book should be called ‘Calisthenics for Gym Bros’ because that is definitely the vibe the author gives off. To call a book ‘Complete Calisthenics’ suggests that it includes exercises for beginners, showing different stages of progression for each exercise, as well as having options for more advanced practitioners, which it does not. Unfortunately, the exercises in this book are not appropriate for beginners, nor are they appropriate for most women, or older/out of shape adults. In fact, I would go as far as to say that this book is really only aimed at a male audience who is already in shape, has calisthenic experience, and would be capable of more advanced exercises. Of course, I question whether those people would even require a book on the subject at all. On the other hand, if someone is purchasing a book on calisthenics, I think there is a good chance that they are beginners and looking to gain knowledge on the subject, as well as seeking instruction on where to start. I found looking through this book to be disheartening, and it did not offer me any value as a middle aged woman and as a beginner. Additionally, the author is spewing nonsense about nutrition when he does not have the credentials to be doing so. It comes off as a bit embarrassing. This book was a miss for me, and I will most certainly be returning it.

Absolute Emfehlung. Habe zuerst mit Convict Conditioning trainiert um Basics aufzubauen. Bin dann aber irgendwanm auf dieses Buch hier umgestiegen und mache seitdem deutlich merkbarere Fortschritte. Der Trainingsplan ist ech gut.

I found this calisthenics book to be an excellent resource that is suitable for both beginners and those at an advanced level. It is well-organized and provides clear, step-by-step instructions for a wide range of techniques. I appreciate that the book is easy to navigate, which makes it easy to find what you're looking for quickly. I can go straight to the technique I want to learn, which saves me time and allows me to get started right away. Overall, I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to improve their calisthenics skills.
