Sonneberger Sportpark: Calisthenics conquers the fitness scene!

Sonneberg, Deutschland - sports enthusiasts can be happy: The Sonneberg sports park (area 26) was opened four weeks ago and is now a popular meeting place for fitness enthusiasts. Vincent Scheler, a passionate athlete, uses the new opportunities to stay fit. His heart beats for Calisthenics-a sport that he discovered during the Corona pandemic. Calisthenics, which comes from the USA and is particularly well received in New York, includes strength training with own weight exercises that can be carried out in public sports parks.

"Calisthenics is more than just a workout. It is a way of life," explains Scheler. The exercises that are used range from pull -ups to dips to pushups. In the United States, the fitness parks offer various devices such as pull -up rods, bars and hangches that are ideal for training with your own body weight. This type of training is particularly advantageous for people with low incomes who cannot afford membership in a gym. As Frei Sport, Calisthenics combines classic sports elements with a wide range of exercises that train both strength and mental discipline.

The equipment of the Sonneberg sports park leaves nothing to be desired. Exercises on different devices such as the hang -plary or the pull -up bar can be carried out here. The slope ladder is particularly popular because it enables pull -ups, dips and muscle ups. Due to the upper and undergrowth, the pull-up bar also offers a wide range of training options that range from Windshield Wipers to Toes-to-Bar. If you want, you can also try out complex variants such as leg-knee lifting or L slope at the dip station, which Freportsport emphasizes.

The demand for such outdoor fitness systems increases. A look across the borders shows that in Berlin numerous Calisthenics and Street Workout Parks have established themselves. The Kenguru.Pro Street Workout Park is particularly popular, where the local scene regularly organizes training sessions. This type of training has become more important in recent years, which is underlined with events such as Bar Warz and the Warrior Warrior Competition. The social aspect of training is also very important in Berlin - community and cohesion are essential.

The opening of the sports park in Sonneberg is a step in the right direction. The provision of such systems promotes the fitness culture and the population is motivated to become active. Athletes like Vincent Scheler will surely achieve many other successes during training. The trend for calisthenics is very popular and brings a breath of fresh air to the local sports landscape.
