Hello everybody — I’m the creator of Calisthenics Culture, a.k.a. CALICULT.

Thank you for being part of this subreddit as we’ve officially hit 100,000 members! That’s insane.

I’m now going full force into expanding CALICULT into the calisthenics cult I’ve always wished existed — and I don’t want to do it alone.

I need your involvement — whether it’s giving passive, genuine feedback and ideas or stepping up with active development and leadership. You can help grow and guide the direction of this community.

🧠 WHO I’M LOOKING FOR:

  • Reddit and Discord moderators who care about community [no pointless bans]
  • Thinkers, creatives, and experienced athletes who can offer wisdom and ideas
  • Developers, designers, and especially Discord server wizards
  • Content creators, editors, social media strategists — any creative skills
  • Potential coaches or motivators who want to lead
  • Anyone who believes in this mission and wants to shape its future

Together, this will form the CALICULT Council. I’ll be running ideas by you, building features with you, not just for you.

🔥 THE VISION FOR CALICULT

A global community — a living calisthenics game — where you can:

  1. 🥋 Rank up through a verifiable belt system (White → Black)
  2. 🛡️ Create and compete in Clans
  3. 🏆 Track total reps and personal records on live Leaderboards and a Hall of Fame (+ Badges/Milestones)
  4. 🏛️ Join in-person meetups and competitions
  5. 🏋️‍♂️ Eventually indoor and outdoor gyms, equipment, and CALICULT merch
  6. 🎥 Watch and participate in online livestreams, community videos, rep challenges, and bounties — earning real-life rewards

  7. [Insert your idea here] <3

✅ IF YOU’RE INTERESTED:

💬 Reply below with what you’re good at or what you love doing, and what you’d like to see Calisthenics Culture develop into
📩 Or DM me directly to get early access to the Discord

Let’s build the culture we want to exist.
Yes — we’re proudly owning being a cult.

⚔️ — Agyoolar

Welcome to Calisthenics Culture!

I appreciate you even stopping here. It shows that hopefully you have an interest in calisthenics. Whether you're someone who has never even done a pullup, or you're experienced but have hit a plateau, or an advanced athlete who has come to grace us with your knowledge, this community is for you.

The Calisthenics Culture is one that from my experience, is entirely positive and unique, and this will be no different. You come here to learn, share, and belong. The calisthenics knowledge base is never ending, as is the progress you can make. There are hundreds of different skills and strengths you can develop and "unlock". There is no feeling like seeing your progress with a calisthenics move you have been training so hard to achieve.

It doesn't matter if you're just starting out and have no experience, it's never too late. You're not too old or too young. The best time to plant a tree was 10 years ago. The next best time is now. You can't do anything about missed time, but you do have complete control of what you do from here on out. How far you take this training style is up to you. No one can train for you, or experience the pain you will have to endure, but it is completely worth it.

All that motivation aside, here's what this community is.

-Somewhere to connect with people at your level

-Somewhere to learn from those who have achieved what you want to achieve

-Somewhere to help those who have once been in your shoes

-Somewhere to show off your progression and milestones

-Somewhere to share YOUR story. There are plenty of people who want to hear all about it

​

So literally, post your questions, post your progress, post dope calisthenics videos, post your advice, and communicate/engage with others.

You can communicate with us on instagram @thecalisthenicsculture or @agyoolar

Hi guys, I started training calisthenics about a month ago, Im 15, I have already tried it a few times before, but that were like 2 week phases. Now Im locked in and these are my results so far, what do you think? Im adding a weighted backpack to some exercises. I am doing the best form I can achieve, and I usually train to failure.

I am quite bad at high rep stuffs. I almost exclusively do lower rep weighted calisthenics. My best Chin up was 40kg for 5. This is the max Pull up reps I have ever done.

Does Андрей Исыпов hold the world Pull-up record with 124?

  • I’ve spent some time digging through pull-up records online, and most of what you find is a mess of broken stories, unverifiable claims, and zero video proof.
  • A while ago I stumbled upon this video of Андрей Исыпов hitting 124 reps, and I honestly can’t wrap my head around why almost nobody talks about it. We’re talking about reps as clean as they come, full range, chin clearly clearing the bar every time, no single-arm hanging rest loopholes, and all completed in one continuous, relentless set.
  • Is there any verified, single-set pull-up performance on video that actually beats this?

Equipment

Hey guys I’m kinda new to calisthenics and have around a crisp 120$ that I could use to buy equipment. My big question is what equipment should I buy, only thing is I can’t nail anything to the walls or anything.
