What are the Real Benefits of Calisthenics?

   

Author: Foras Aje
At times, we may not always have access to the gymnasium or exercise equipments at home. Sometimes we need some form of exercise to strengthen us to be able to workout on our various equipments. Well that's where Calisthenics come in.

The word "calisthenics" comes from the Greek words 'kallos' for beauty and 'thenos' for strength. The components of this form of exercises aims at achieving those physical attributes, but the methods also influences the emotional and social development of everyone.

They are divided into two groups: aerobic (meaning with oxygen) or anaerobic (without oxygen)

Aerobic Exercises:
Include such common exercises as jogging, long distance running, swimming, walking, and mild dancing.
In all of these activities there is a constant supply of oxygen and thus can be performed for longer durations of time. They are great for increasing muscular endurance and toning the body.

Anaerobic Exercises:
These are intense exercises which can only be endured for a few moments. They are short bursts of high-energy activities involving the use of muscle groups at high intensities which exceeds the body's capacity to use oxygen to supply energy thus creating an oxygen debt. Consequently the body has to rely on an internal metabolic process for oxygen which leads to a muscular explosion and an eventual increase in size and mass. Other examples of anaerobic exercises are lifting heavy weights, wrestling (thus the huge size of the gorilla!), rope climbing, speed cycling etc.

Aerobic and Anaerobic calisthenics, like Yoga, possess the ability to loosen constitutional encumbrances through various kinds of vibrations and thermal differences which consequently speeds up weight-loss and overall improved muscular tone, endurance and strength.

The latter being the Anaerobic (without oxygen) exercises include isometric, isotonic, isokinetic and eccentric exercises which all combined (of course with the Aerobic exercises such as jogging, walking etc) make for a successful and efficient online fitness training program.

Now to make these methods of exercise even more useful, as stated by the Father of Medicine, Hippocrates who compiled a list of over four hundred herbs and their uses: "Let your food be your medicine as Nature is the healer of all diseases!"

So, if you need a choice of exercise, calisthenics as a foundation could be a wise choice. Heck, it works for millions of people and it surely should work for you.

In Friendship,

Foras.

Author Bio:

Foras Aje

Foras Aje was born in Washington DC and at the age of four moved with his family to Ijebu-Igbo, Ogun State, Nigeria. It was here that he was endowed by his father with a desire to delve into the cause and reasons for occurrences and results.

This lent itself into finding the solutions to the maladies acne and asthma, of which he was suffering, after other conventional methods proved unsuccessful. Consequently, this placed him on the path of naturopathy otherwise known as drugless healing.

Through a radical change in diet and exercise: (Yoga and Calisthenics), he was able to banish close to a decade of his marring acne and a lifetime of asthma. Along with this came the disappearance of depression, lethargy and a marked increase in overall health and fitness.

Convinced of the efficiency of the methods passed down from great health pioneers, in his words: "My goal is to show as many people as I can the wonderful results of Nature's way of healing the body if she's only given half a chance! There is no limit to the potential the human body has when it adheres to her laws! With proper diet, positive mental attunement and exercise, any and everyone can unshackle the bondage of misery and disease in one's own life."
