Chapter 1
Five tiers, from a
dead hang to a planche.
Nothing is locked and nothing is prescribed. The tiers exist so you know what is reasonable to attempt next.
Chapter 2
Log what happened,
not what was planned.
There is no programme to fall behind on. Start a session, add exercises as you go, record reps or hold time, and let the rest timer run itself.
Push, pull, legs

A record that will
not flatter you.

and walk there.
Calisto finds nearby pull up bars, dip stations and calisthenics parks from open map data, then draws a route to one.
Frequently asked questions
A few things, worth knowing.
What is Calisto?
Calisto is a calisthenics skill manual and workout log. It brings together step-by-step skill guides, session logging, personal-best tracking, and a map of nearby training spots.
Is Calisto suitable for beginners?
Yes. Calisto organizes 40 skills into five tiers: Beginner, Basic, Intermediate, Advanced, and Extreme. You can explore the beginner skills first and use the guides to understand each movement.
Does Calisto prescribe a workout program?
Calisto lets you choose the skills and exercises you want to practice. You build a session and log the sets you complete, rather than following a required program.
What can I record in a workout?
You can log exercises, sets, repetitions, and timed holds. Calisto also includes a rest timer and tracks personal bests so you can review your progress over time.
Do I need equipment to use Calisto?
Equipment depends on the movement. Some floor exercises need only clear space, while pull-ups and dips need suitable bars. Check the guide for the skill you want to practice.
Can Calisto help me find a place to train?
Calisto uses open map data to help you find nearby pull-up bars, dip stations, and calisthenics parks, and shows a route to a training spot. Coverage depends on the available map data.
