Start Slowly and Gradually Increase Intensity:Begin with beginner-level exercises and gradually increase the difficulty as your strength and endurance improve. Focus on proper form before increasing reps or sets.
Listen to Your Body:Pay attention to your body's signals. Rest when you need to, and don't push yourself too hard, especially when starting out.
Find a Qualified Instructor (Optional):While many resources are available online, consider working with a certified calisthenics instructor, especially when beginning. They can guide you on proper form, create a personalized workout plan, and ensure you’re progressing safely.
Warm-up and Cool-down:Always warm up before starting your calisthenics routine with light cardio and dynamic stretches. Cool down afterwards with static stretches to promote muscle recovery and flexibility.
Here is a Sample Calisthenics Routine for Beginners:
(Remember to consult your doctor before starting any new workout routine.)
Warm-up (5 minutes):Jumping jacks, high knees, arm circles, leg swings. This goes back to something we all should have learned in school at some point.
Workout (30 minutes):
Squats:3 sets of 10-12 repetitions.
Push-ups (on knees or against a wall if needed):3 sets of as many repetitions as possible (AMRAP).
Lunges:3 sets of 10-12 repetitions per leg.
Plank:Hold for 30-60 seconds, 3 sets.
Glute Bridges:3 sets of 15-20 repetitions.
Superman:3 sets of 15-20 repetitions.
Cool-down (5 minutes):Static stretches holding each for 30 seconds, focusing on major muscle groups worked (quadriceps, hamstrings, chest, shoulders, back).

Wrong color
I have been a long time customer. I love the Estelle lounge pant.
I sent a message that I received the wrong color pant. I haven’t heard anything. I’m disappointed. 😔

I love the leggings but....
I love the fit and comfort of these leggings, but unfortunately was sent the wrong color. I decided to keep them anyway and will definitely wear them, but I placed an order of two items and both items I got were wrong.
