Core
Having a strong core is very important as you learn and master different body weight movements. Okay, so many of you might want a six pack. Consider the fact that abs are built in the kitchen. With that aside, training is important too. I would advise you to focus on moving and training consistently, and eat real healthy food. Nutrition, exercise, rest, detox, and self care will help you to live a healthy life and maintain a healthy body fat percentage. I cannot guarantee a six pack, but if you optimize these aspects of your life, you will feel awesome.
Strong Mind
Thoughts are powerful, so be careful what you think. Thoughts can help you and hurt you. So as you learn to integrate calisthenics into your life, I would encourage you to make it a mindful practice. Visualize your workouts and goals. Develop positive phrases that will motivate you and give you energy. Use your training as a way to let go of negative thoughts and feelings, and become hyper aware of how your body moves and feels as you learn to control it through space. The body is controlled by the mind: strong mind, strong body!
