First and foremost, you must have the fire in you; you have to motivate yourself and be dedicated. Calisthenics, and specifically working with bars (dip, pull up, etc.) requires strength, skill, and low body fat. What most people don’t know is that your diet is a tremendous part of your bar training; it has to be a lifestyle. Eating the right amount of nutritional food will help build your muscles stronger and faster while also helping you drop fat. Then you have to master the basics: pull ups, push ups, and dips. When I really started taking my training seriously, I started doing push ups daily. I began noticing that I was ringing in over 300 push ups a day in a variety of variations: neutral, wide, diamond, etc. Since push ups are one of the best overall total body workouts, it helped develop my strength and I was able to build the necessary foundation to execute other, more difficult exercises much more easily. The main thing that you want to keep in mind, as a beginner of calisthenics, is that you should always have the mindset of a student because there is always room to grow and improve.
