Calisthenics From Zero: The Full 90-Day Plan

REP THEORY 90, the full 90-day plan written out week by week (every week, every set, every hold + a 90-day tracker): https://thereptheory.gumroad.com/l/rt90 Your 90-day Winter Arc, from zero, with nothing but your bodyweight and a few household items. This is a complete calisthenics roadmap for beginners: a home calisthenics workout plan with no gym and no equipment, built in three phases (the foundation, the build, the skills), plus the one day that decides whether you make it. Phase 1 (days 1-30) builds the base every calisthenics routine needs: push-up progressions (incline, knee and full push-ups), table rows for your back, split squats for your legs, and isometric holds that start training your tendons. Phase 2 (days 31-60) is bodyweight muscle building: feet-up push-ups, pike push-ups for your shoulders, pull-up negatives toward your first pull-up, chair dips and Bulgarian split squats, with progressive overload every week and protein for skinny guys who want to gain muscle. Phase 3 (days 61-90) adds your first calisthenics skill: the tuck L-sit, the wall handstand or the planche lean (the first step toward the planche). Take the test first: your most clean push-ups, your longest plank, your longest hang. Comment them like this: "Day 0: 12 / 45s / 20s", then come back on day 90 and reply with your new numbers.
